Ⅰ．单句语法填空
1．(2020·浙江卷)This style of farming lasted for quite a long time. Then，with __the rise of science，changes began.
解析：考查定冠词。句意：随着科学的崛起，事情发生了变化。with the rise of 译为“随着……的崛起”是固定短语。故填the。
2．(2019·全国卷Ⅲ)When they were free from work，they invited us to local events and let us know of an interesting __competition (compete)to watch，together with the story behind it.
解析：考查词性转换之名词。由空格前的不定冠词an与空格后的不定式to watch可以确定空格处应该填名词形式。故填competition。
3．(2019·浙江卷)Other American studies showed no __connection/connections (connect) between uniforms and school performance.
解析：考查词性转换之名词。句意：其他的美国研究表明校服和学校表现之间没有联系。no是形容词，形容词修饰名词，位于名词前，名词可用复数也可用单数形式。connect是动词，“联系”的意思，因此，要用其名词形式。故填connection/connections。
