语法填空本文是一篇说明文。本文讲述了伦敦中国城主街爵禄街的产生和发展的过程。61.a。unique以辅音音素开头，此处为泛指，故填a。
62.changing。在介词with的独立主格结构中，theworldricemarket与change在逻辑上是主谓关系，故用change的现在分词形式。
63.lost。几千名农民失去工作发生在过去，故用一般过去时。64.tolearn。havenotimetodosth.意为“没有时间做某事”。
65.arrival。空白处所填词在句中作Dueto的宾语，故填arrive的名词形式。66.Wives。由空格后的theirhusbands可知，此处需用wife的复数形式。67.better。changeforthebetter意为“状况好转”。68.of。moveoutof意为“从……搬出来”。
69.which。根据空格后的名词time并结合先行词ChineseNewYear可知，空格处填which引导定语从句并在从句中充当定语。
70.mainly。空格中所填单词在句中修饰谓语动词，故用main的副词形式。短文改错：
