【解析】本文主要介绍世界上的一些亿万富翁,比如,Bill Gates31岁时成为亿万富翁,而最年轻的亿万富翁是Albert von Thurn和Taxis.
(1)考查过去分词。people与report之间是动宾关系,用过去分词短语reported to be billionaires作定语修饰people,故填reported。
(2)考查形容词。根据前文"2有222人是亿万富翁",此处应是:这些人中最富有的是Bill Gates.要用形容词最高级。故填richest。
(3)考查介词.根据句意:他通过开办微软公司挣钱.by意为"凭借,通过"。故填by 。
(4) 考查连词.根据句意:当Gates先生在1976年最初帮助建立公司时他只有21岁.when引导时间状语从句。故填when。
(5)考查不定式。 helpto do sth.固定短语,”帮助做.....“,不定式作目的状语,故填to set up 。
(6) 考查副词.however表示转折,尤其用于谈及一个既成事实时,表示转折,其意为"可是""仍然"等.可放在句首、句中或句末,通常用逗号与句子其他成分隔开。故填However。
(7) 考查形容词.根据上下文,此处应是和Gates在31岁成为亿万富翁相比,在更小的年纪挣了钱,要用形容词比较级。故填younger。
(8)考查过去分词。 根据设空处前面的have可知用strike的过去分词。故填struck。
(9)考查现在分词.both与act之间是主谓关系,用现在分词短语acting in movies作状语,故填acting 。
(10)考查时态。 根据整篇文章的时态可知,此处用一般过去时,故填turned。
