Born 考查非谓语动词。这里前半句缺少主语,主句是逗号后的部分。此处为过去分词作状语,用过去分词表示被动。故填Born。 3. traditional 考查形容词。空后是名词短语“儒家教育”,所以此处用形容词“传统的”修饰儒家教育。故填traditional。 4. spent 考查时态。这里故事背景发生在杜甫那个时代,是过去发生的,且前后文都是用一般过去时,所以这里也要用一般过去时。故填spent。 5. including 考查介词。后面接名词短语,所以需要填介词。故填including。 6. admiration 考查名词。前面是冠词和形容词,后面应该加名词词性,所以这里admire变成名词admiration。故填admiration。 7. which 考查非限制性定语从句。分析句子可知,句中先行词为Liren xing,指物,在从句中作主语,故用关系代词which。 8. the 考查冠词。此处特指一段时期,特指755年至759年,所以用定冠词the。 9. rests 考查时态和主谓一致。句子的主语是“Du Fu's irreplaceable position”,中心词是名词position,这里是可数名词单数作主语,谓语动词应用第三人称单数形式,此处是介绍杜甫在中国文学史上的地位,因此用一般现在时。故填rests。 10. in/at/on 考查
