閱讀下面短文,在空白處填入1個適當的單詞或括號內單詞的正確形式。

(cover)an area about three times? ? ?57? ? size of Yellowstone National Park, the GPNP will be one of the first national parks in the country.

本文主要報道了中國設立大熊貓國家公園(GPNP)的相關情況。
56. Covering 因句中已有謂語動詞will be,所以cover為非謂語;又因主語the GPNP與cover是主動關系,且位于句首,首字母要大寫,故填Covering。
57. the 受of短語修飾,特指美國黃石國家公園的大小,故填the;也可看作表示倍數的“A +be+倍數+the size/length/width/height of B”句型中的the。
58. 見后文。
59. to increase 作目的狀語用動詞不定式,故填to increase。
60. is designed 作謂語,且主語The GPNP與design是被動關系,指現在的狀態,用一般現在時的被動語態,故填is designed。
61. and 因protecting..., preserving..., protecting...和leaving...是并列關系,故填and。
62. populations 由與之并列的and homes可知,population也用復數,故填populations。
63. eventually 修飾動詞achieve,用副詞。
64. as 因serve as(充當)為固定搭配。
65. that 引導定語從句并在從句中作主語,先行詞是species,有all 修飾,故填that。
本文重點探討其中的第58題。第58題考查的是時態和主謂一致。句意為:該計劃將把保護范圍擴大到大量以前未受保護的地區,將許多現有的大熊貓保護區納入一個管理機構,以提高效率,減少管理上的不一致性。that引導一個限制性定語從句,先行詞是復數名詞areas,該空中的be在從句中作謂語動詞,問題是be該用哪種時態呢?
筆者所教的學生中,不少人誤填are, is, 或will be,即他們認為是一般現在時或一般將來時。經過調查發現,這是因學生的慣性思維和不懂previously (之前地)這個詞的意思造成的。至于用is的,是因為沒有考慮到主謂一致的問題。
一般情況下,我們的考生在作答時,確定時態主要根據兩個顯性線……
