【解析】

试题分析：本文讲述了Katharine Meyer Graham是怎样创办华盛顿邮报的

【1】as；考查固定搭配。Be described as…被描述成……；句意：Katharine Meyer Graham曾经被美国描述成美国最有力量的女人。横线前有be动词和described，故填as

【2】an；考查冠词。不定冠词an/a修饰可数名词的单数，an放在首字母是元音开头的单词前，表示泛指，定冠词the修饰名词时表示特指。这里的elected representative和后面的a government official一样表示泛指，且elected又是元音开头的单词，故填an

【3】it；考查代词。这里要填的是前文出现的The Washington Post newspaper但是为了避免重复要用一个代替，故填it

【4】or；考查介词。no training in business和experience in operating a large company是并列关系，表示：她既没有参加过商业培训也没有任何开大公司的经验。故填or

【5】how；考查疑问代词。句意：最开始她也不知道怎样做报纸。故填how

【6】but；考查连词。根据前文：She had no idea about ______ to operate a newspaper at first,可知她没有过办报纸的经验，但是她从来没有失去过办下去的信心。这里的两个句子在意思上有转折的意思在里面，故填but

【7】that；考查关系代词。在定语从句中，先行词是形容词最高级或序数词或被形容词最高级、序数词修饰时，此时的关系代词用that。先行词women有最高级the greatest修饰，所以关系代词应为that，故填that

【8】on；考查固定词组。Have an important influence on…对……有一个重要的影响。横线前有had an important influence，差一个介词，故填on
