【解析】
本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了中国舞狮的起源、表演及其在国外的传播情况。
【1】
考查形容词。修饰名词folk dances,前用形容词形式。故填traditional。
【2】
考查时态和语态。句意:古代的人们把狮子视为勇敢和力量的象征。主语 The lion和regard之间是被动关系,且根据后面的ancient people可知,这是古代人们的看法,故该句要用一般过去时态。综上,故填was regarded。
【3】
考查代词。修饰名词livestock,用形容词性物主代词,意为“他们的牛、羊等家畜”。故用their。
【4】
考查副词。在这里用副词 especially“尤其,特别 ”,表示进一步强调。故填especially。
【5】
考查名词的数。句意:舞狮需要两名训练有素、身穿狮装的表演者。形容词highly-trained ,后接名词形式,根据前面数词two可知,用名词的复数形式。故填performers。
【6】
考查冠词。该段第一句中提到两个表演者,该空应特指两者中的另一个,构成one...the other...结构。故填the。
【7】
考查介词。句意:“狮子”随着鼓的节拍舞动。dance to the music/beat是习惯用法,意为“随着音乐或节奏跳舞”。to在此为介词,意为“跟着,伴随”。故填to。
【8】
考查定语从句。此处是“介词+关系代词”引导定语从句,句中先行词是green vegetables,指物,所以用关系代词which。故填which。
【9】
考查时态。根据语境和时间状语In the past decade可知,此处应用现在完成时。故填has spread。
【10】
考查非谓语动词。句意:中国人用舞狮或舞龙来庆祝每年的春节和其他重要活动。此处用不定式作目的状语。故填to celebrate。
