【解析】

【语篇解读】近日，世界卫生组织向科学家、制药商及政府发出呼声，希望各方共同努力研发药物对抗12种细菌。这些细菌已经对强效的抗生素产生耐药性，被称为超级细菌。

【1】考查非谓语。此处用动词不定式作目的状语，指“共同工作来研发一种药物”。故填to develop。

【2】考查主谓一致。主语“These bacteria”是复数；此处说明的是目前的情况。故填are。

【3】考查形容词。此处指“能抵抗强有效的抗生素药物”，用形容词修饰名词。故填powerful。

【4】考查冠词。“12 superbugs”已经在第一段中提到了，此处是特指。故填the。

【5】考查连词。本句运用了定语从句，先行词指事物，引导词在从句中作主语。故填that 或which。

【6】考查介词。此处指“治疗方法却消耗殆尽”，run out of是固定搭配，是及物短语，“用完；用尽” 的意思。故填of。

【7】考查副词。修饰谓语动词部分用副词。故填urgently。

【8】考查固定搭配。more or less是固定搭配，是“或多或少”的意思。故填or。

【9】考查非谓语。名词the amount与require之间是被动关系，所以用过去分词作定语，指“被 医生要求的量”。故填required。

【10】考查时态和语态。引导词that指代先行词infections，是复数，在从句中作主语，与 treat之间是被动关系；根据时间状语in the past可知，此处需要用一般过去时的被动语态。故 填were treated。
