8、语从句,先行词是 Brooklyns Chinatown,表示地点,关系词在从句中作地点状语,故用 where。10be preserved 解析:考查动词的语态。似乎中国文化在适应变化中的环境时能被保存下来。 preserve “保存,保留” ,是及物动词,故此处用被动语态。object vi.反对;不赞成n物体;目标(1)object to(sb./sth.)反对(某人/某事)object to doing sth.反对做某事(2)objection n不赞成;反对;异议have/take/make an objection to(doing)sth.对(做)某事表示反对raise an
