1.句意:张骞,陕西人,西汉时期最著名的探险家和外交家。根据空前“the”以及提示词可知,此处表示最著名的,因此用most famous意为“最著名的”。故填most famous。
2.句意:公元前139年,张骞被汉武帝派往西域,与大月氏(今塔吉克斯坦)建立军事联盟,共同对抗匈奴部落。根据“Zhang Qian was sent by Emperor Wu of Han to the Western Regions to build a military(军事)alliance(同盟)with the Greater Yuezhi(modern Tajikistan)…(fight)against the Xiongnu tribes together”以及提示词可知,此处表示为了共同对抗匈奴部落,因此应用to do不定式作目的状语。故填to fight。
3.句意:但不幸的是,他两次被匈奴抓住,被迫和匈奴一起待了十多年。根据“he …(catch)twice by the Xiongnu”可知,此处表示他被匈奴抓住,且时态为一般过去时,因此用一般过去时的被动语态,构成为was/were done,此处主语为he,因此用was caught。故填was caught。
4.句意:虽然他的任务的主要目的没有实现,但他写下了西域人民的文化和生活方式,第一次,中国皇帝被告知有关印度,中东,甚至一些欧洲国家的事情。根据“…the main aim of his task was not achieved, he wrote down the cultures and lifestyles of the peoples of the Western Regions”可知,此处表示虽然他的任务的主要目的没有实现,但他写下了西域人民的文化和生活方式,因此用although/though,意为“虽然”,引导让步状语从句,句子开头首字母大写。故填Although/Though。
5.句意:虽然他的任务的主要目的没有实现,但他写下了西域人民的文化和生活方式,第一次,中国皇帝被告知有关印度,中东,甚至一些欧洲国家的事情。根据空前“some”以及提示词可知,country意为“国家”,为可数名词,some后用可数名词的复数形式,因此用countries。故填countries。
6.句意:在他的领导下,匈奴取得了一系列的胜利,成功地结束了汉朝匈奴的麻烦。根据“number of victories”可知,此处表示许多胜利,a number of+可数名词复数,意为“许多……”。故填a。
7.句意:公元前119年,他第二次出征西域,四年后带着西方使节返回。根据空前时间状语从句“In 119 BC”可知,此处应用一般过去时,lead意为“引领、带路”,其过去式为led。故填led。
8.句意:公元前119年,他第二次出征西域,四年后带着西方使节返回。根据“four years”以及提示词可知,此处表示4年后,英语表达为four years later。故填later。
9.句意:张骞的远征为开辟丝绸之路提供了宝贵的信息,促进了东西方之间的商业和文化交流。根据“provided valuable information…opening up the Silk Road”可知,此处表示为开辟丝绸之路提供了宝贵的信息,provide sth. for sth.意为“为某事提供某物”,因此用for。故填for。
10.句意:我们应该永远记住这位先驱者的功绩。根据“achievements”以及提示词可知,此处表示先驱者的功绩,因此应用名词所有格作定语。故填pioneer’s。
