There’s little that can prepare an utsider fr an verwhelming quantity f fd in Singapre. Everyne wandering thrugh this city envelped in trpical heat is interrupted by pen-air fd centers，cffee shps and restaurants cmpeting fr yur stmach’s attentin. Dining ut is a way f life in Singapre. One in fur residents say he/she eat ut daily. Yu can chse between wrld-class chicken rice, prawn ndles, fish ball sup，dim sum，Indian prata—a prud lcal cuisine and traditin put tgether by generatins f the city’s Chinese, Indian and Malay inhabitants.
But Seeth, a prmter f Singaprean fd culture and funder f the Makansutra fd guide, spke abut an appraching crisis. The famus ranks f Singapre’s fd vendrs (小贩), knwn here as hawkers, are aging faster than they can be replaced. Their children have little interest in wrking 12-hur shifts in 10-by-10 feet hawker stands in cntinual heat.“Thusands f heritage hawkers wh are prud, lud, humble and authentic—are marching tward the cliff，” he said. Withut them, Singapre wuldn’t have its busy dining scene where mdest fd prevails and the instinct t eat elbw-t-elbw with strangers frms the basis f cmmunity.
Hawkers are the descendants f mving street fd vendrs befre Singapre’s funding in 1965. After natinhd, they were licensed and hused in areas situated in r near public husing. That gave the masses access t cheap，clean and abundant fd that helped pwer Singapre’s prductivity. By taking away the chre f cking, it enabled cuples t wrk.
After perhaps underselling its appeal, the Singaprean gvernment has jumped n the hawker bandwagn in recent years. It established a hawker incubatin(孵化) prgram that allwed applicants t rent a stall half-price fr six mnths t encurage a new generatin. And it launched a campaign t include hawker culture in UNESCO’s List f Intangible Cultural Heritage alngside things such as France’s gastrnmic dining and Italy’s Neaplitan pizza.

语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了菲律宾第五大城市——巴科洛德，介绍了当地的MassKara节日的节日活动等情况。
解析：
1．考查数词。句意：巴科洛德是菲律宾第五大城市，被称为“微笑之城”。此处表示“第五大”应填序数词fifth。故填fifth。
2．考查动词的时态和语态。句意：当地人民欢迎来自世界各地的游客。陈述客观事实用一般现在时态，且主语 Turists与 welcme之间为被动关系，用一般现在时的被动语态，主语为Turists，谓语动词用复数。故填are welcmed。
3．考查介词。句意：MassKara节在20世纪80年代初首次出现。结合句意表示“第一次，首次”短语为fr the first time。故填fr。

5．考查非谓语动词。句意：节日期间，戴着面具，穿着五颜六色的民族服装的人们涌上街头，狭窄的街道变成了欢乐的海洋。分析句子结构可知put在句中应用非谓语动词形式，与逻辑主语peple构成主动关系，因此应用现在分词作定语。故填putting。
6．考查动词的时态和主谓一致。句意同上题。此处叙述了每年的庆祝活动，因此用一般现在时，且非限制性定语从句修饰上文整个句子，从句中谓语动词应用第三人称单数形式。故填transfrms。
7．考查冠词。句意：此外，在这个城市还会有很多其他的活动。结合句意表示“许多的，大量的”短语为a number f。故填a。
8．考查状语从句。句意同上题。此处引导让步状语从句，表示“虽然，尽管”应用althugh/thugh/while，句首单词首字母要大写。故填Althugh/Thugh/While。
9．考查副词。句意同上题。修饰形容词wrth，应用副词well。故填well。
10．考查形容词。句意同上题。此处修饰名词短语husing prices，应用形容词affrdable，作定语。故填affrdable。
