【解析】文章介紹了埃及人生活方式的發(fā)展變化過(guò)程。

【1】考查介詞。from…to…意為“從……到……”，是固定搭配。

【2】考查非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。句意：他們?cè)?/span>Nile River里釣魚(yú)，收割岸邊的蘆葦桿來(lái)制造籃子。to make baskets是目的狀語(yǔ)。

【3】考查形容詞。crowded是形容詞，做get的表語(yǔ)。

【4】考查副詞。possibly是副詞，修飾動(dòng)詞buy。

【5】考查名詞性從句。“___5___we call the Agricultural Revolution today”是標(biāo)語(yǔ)從句，該從句中，call少賓語(yǔ)，故該從句應(yīng)用what引導(dǎo)。

【6】考查名詞。many修飾可數(shù)名詞復(fù)數(shù)，故該空填changes。

【7】考查定語(yǔ)從句�！癬___ their crops were”是定語(yǔ)從句，修飾the land，the land在從句中做表語(yǔ)，表地點(diǎn)，故該從句應(yīng)用關(guān)系副詞where引導(dǎo)。

【8】“___8___(see) the advantages that farming brought them”在句中做狀語(yǔ)，主語(yǔ)those leaders和see之間是主動(dòng)關(guān)系，故該空應(yīng)填現(xiàn)在分詞。

【9】考查時(shí)態(tài)和語(yǔ)態(tài)。該句時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)為“Around 3,500 BC”，故該句應(yīng)用一般過(guò)去時(shí)態(tài)。且主語(yǔ)donkeys和use之間是被動(dòng)關(guān)系，根據(jù)主謂一致原則，該空填were used。

【10】該空做make的賓語(yǔ)補(bǔ)足語(yǔ)，故應(yīng)填形容詞，且根據(jù)后面的than可知，該空應(yīng)填rich的比較級(jí)。
