【分析】
本题为用方框中所给单词的适当形式填空，解题思路为：先通读每个句子理解句意，再结合句子的语法结构（如时态、词性要求），从给定单词中匹配合适的词，最后根据语法规则变形。具体步骤：1. 观察句子时态确定动词形式；2. 根据空格前后的词（如冠词、be动词）判断所需词性；3. 结合语境选择符合逻辑的单词。
【解析】
1. 句中and连接并列谓语，后半句为过去式had，故此处用compete的过去式competed；
2. 空格前有不定冠词a和形容词wise，需填名词，choose的名词形式为choice；
3. 空格处作主语，结合“sport”可知是运动名称，bouldering（抱石运动）作主语，首字母大写；
4. 空格在be动词are后，需填形容词，unique（独特的）符合句意；
5. 表示“两者都不”，用neither，构成neither of结构。
【答案】
1. competed 2. choice 3. Bouldering 4. unique 5. Neither
【知识点】
动词时态与形式转换、名词与形容词的运用、代词neither的用法
【点评】
本题考查词汇的适当形式运用，需结合语境和语法规则选择并变形单词，是基础的词汇应用题型，难度适中。

【解析】
1. 表示“既不……也不”的固定搭配为neither...nor，符合句子语境，故填neither; nor。
2. “参加……的选拔”的固定短语是try out，句中will后接动词原形，故填try out。

1. neither; nor 2. try out 3. divided into 4. competing against

固定短语搭配，被动语态，非谓语动词
