【解析】1. 由时间状语last week可知句子用一般过去时，set a record符合跳高相关的语境，且set的过去式与原形一致，故填set a record；2. at the old people's home是地点状语，help out表示帮忙，符合在养老院的语境，故填help out；3. 因病缺课需努力跟上他人，catch up with表示赶上，符合语境，故填catch up with；4. this course是课程，sign up for表示报名，符合建议报名课程的语境，故填sign up for；5. 购买机器前需试用，try out表示试用，符合语境，故填try out。

Ⅲ. 用所给词的适当形式填空。
1. Tom, as well as the other students, often (play) football.
2. No one but Tom and I (know) that the director is going to resign(辞职).
3. I, together with my parents, (take) a walk at this time yesterday.
4. Neither of us (dare) to climb that tall tree.

1. plays 2. knows 3. was taking 4. dares

【分析】本题考查主谓一致中的就远原则及不同时态的运用。解题思路：当主语后接as well as、but、together with等修饰成分时，谓语动词的单复数由前面的核心主语决定；同时结合句中时间状语判断时态，neither of作主语时谓语常用单数。具体分析：1. 核心主语是Tom，第三人称单数，often表一般现在时，故play变plays；2. 核心主语是No one，单数，故know变knows；3. 核心主语是I，at this time yesterday表过去进行时，故take变was taking；4. neither of作主语，谓语用单数，故dare变dares。
【解析】1. 句子主语为Tom，as well as the other students是插入语，不改变主语单复数，often是一般现在时标志，主语为第三人称单数，故谓语用play的第三人称单数形式plays；2. 句子主语是No one，but Tom and I是修饰成分，No one作主语时谓语用单数，结合从句一般现在时，故用know的第三人称单数形式knows；3. 句子主语是I，together with my parents是修饰成分，时间状语at this time yesterday表过去特定时刻正在进行的动作，需用过去进行时，I对应be动词was，故take用was taking；4. neither of表“两者都不”，作主语时谓语常用单数，故dare用dares。
【答案】1. plays 2. knows 3. was taking 4. dares
【知识点】主谓一致、一般现在时、过去进行时
【点评】本题围绕英语主谓一致的核心考点（就远原则）展开，结合不同时态用法，是初中英语基础常考题，需学生掌握修饰主语的短语对谓语的影响，以及neither of作主语的用法，难度适中，适合巩固基础。

【分析】
本题为用所给词的适当形式填空，主要考查英语基础语法与词汇变形，解题思路为：先根据句子的时间标志、语境判断时态；再结合固定搭配、主谓一致、名词单复数、词性转换、被动语态等规则，确定每个空的正确形式。
【解析】
1. 由时间状语“in 776 BCE”（过去时间）可知，用一般过去时，begin的过去式为began，故填began。
2. there be句型遵循就近原则，后面主语“team sports”为复数，且描述过去情况，be动词用were，故填were。
3. 数词“192”后接可数名词复数，metre的复数形式为metres，故填metres。
4. 由“different cities”可知，公民为复数，citizen的复数形式为citizens，故填citizens。
5. 固定搭配“hope to do sth.”（希望做某事），需填不定式to bring，故填to bring。
6. 主句为一般过去时，until引导的时间状语从句也用一般过去时，stop的过去式为stopped，故填stopped。
7. 此处修饰名词“Games”，需用形容词，finally是副词，其形容词形式为final，故填final。
8. 主语“the first modern Olympics”与动词hold是被动关系，结构为“were+过去分词”，hold的过去分词为held，故填held。
9. 由后面的“were”可知，主语为复数，medal的复数形式为medals，故填medals。
10. 现在完成时结构为“have+过去分词”，gain的过去分词为gained，故填gained。
【答案】
1. began 2. were 3. metres 4. citizens 5. to bring 6. stopped 7. final 8. held 9. medals 10. gained
