【8】others

【9】are

【10】looking

【解析】

试题分析：本文介绍了“百科全书”的出处、作者以及内容。

【1】句意：它意味着“通识教育”。 因为It为第三人称单数，所以谓语动词用三单形式。故为么means。

【2】句意：百科全书是一种参考书。a kind of…一种……。

【3】句意：百科全书是一种参考书，并且囊括了要么各个知识领域的信息，要么一种专门知识领域的信息。either…or…二者择一的，要么……要么……。

【4】句意：大概2000年前人们开始用它。此处应用动词的过去式，即begin的过去式began。

【5】句意：最古老的人是一个博物学家。前一句说人们2000年前开始用百科全书，这些人中最古老的一个人应用形容词最高级表示，且前面有the，故为oldest。

【6】句意：它的作者是老普林尼。本句话为被动语态，It在这里指代the encyclopaedia。

【7】句意：一些百科全书仅由一册组成，但其他的一些有很多册。make up of…由……组成。

【8】句意：一些百科全书仅由一册组成，但其他的一些有很多册。Others是other的复数形式，泛指“另外几个，其余的”。前半句说了“一些百科全书”，后半句应说“其余的百科全书”。

【9】句意：也有一些在线的百科全书，例如维基百科。There be句型采用就近一致原则，由后面some online encyclopaedias可知，此处用are。

【10】句意：他们对寻求信息的人来说是免费的。look for寻找。单个现在分词作定语，放在所修饰词前面，分词短语则放在所修饰词的后面，此处的looking for分词短语，修饰people，放在其后面。
