6、明文，主要介紹了土坯房冬暖夏涼的原理，故用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)態(tài)。] 9. natural　[考查形容詞的用法。修飾名詞architects，故要用形容詞形式。] 10. how　[考查賓語從句的連接詞用法。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知，這是一個(gè)賓語從句。根據(jù)形容詞thick及結(jié)構(gòu)可知這里的意思是印第安人要算出土坯墻的確切厚度。所以答案為how。] Ⅰ.閱讀理解 A In the fifteenth century Italy had no single ruler.Instead it was a collection of independent states,known as “city state
