5. We are proud that every small effort can make a (contribute) to our school and society.

1. gifted
2. widen
3. valuable

1. 空格后为名词child，需要用形容词修饰名词，gift的形容词形式gifted意为“有天赋的”，gifted child表示“有天赋的孩子”，符合语境。
2. 情态动词can后需要接动词原形，形容词wide的动词形式为widen，意为“拓宽”，widen our horizons是固定搭配“拓宽我们的视野”，符合句意。
3. 此处为so+形容词+that...（如此……以至于……）结构，系动词is后需要接形容词作表语，名词value的形容词形式valuable意为“有价值的”，符合语境。
4. 空格后为名词短语basketball player，需要用形容词修饰名词，名词profession的形容词形式professional意为“职业的”，professional basketball player表示“职业篮球运动员”，符合句意。
5. 固定搭配make a contribution to意为“对……做出贡献”，冠词a后需要接名词，动词contribute的名词形式为contribution。

二 根据汉语意思完成句子,每空一词
6. For Robert Schumann, Chopin was a . 对于罗伯特·舒曼来说,肖邦是一个音乐天才。

6. musical; genius
7. made; a; great; contribution
8. look; down; on/upon
9. of; all; ages
10. not; only; but; also

本题考查本单元核心词汇与固定搭配的语境运用：
6. 表示“音乐天才”，用短语musical genius，符合不定冠词a修饰名词短语的结构；
7. 表示“作出巨大贡献”的固定搭配是make a great contribution，描述过去发生的动作用一般过去时，make变为made；
8. 表示“看不起”的固定短语是look down on/upon，情态动词should后接动词原形；
9. 表示“老老少少、各个年龄段的”，用短语of all ages，作后置定语修饰people；

任务型阅读
阅读短文，按要求回答问题。（注意每小题的词数要求）
One cannot talk about Chinese music without mentioning the Chinese seven-
string zither（七弦琴）, also known as the guqin. It first appeared over 3,000 years ago and represents China's traditional solo instrumental music.
At first, the guqin had only five strings. They stand for the five elements: metal, wood, water, fire and earth. Later, two more strings were added in the Zhou Dynasty.
The environment is very important when people play the guqin. People usually play it in quiet places rather than at big public events. Ancient artists loved playing the guqin by mountain streams, amid snow or on moonlit nights. Wang Wei (701－761), a great poet of the Tang Dynasty, enjoyed playing it in a bamboo forest on moonlit nights.
Nowadays, skilled guqin players and experienced masters are quite rare. In addition, many guqin pieces can be found in old music books, but only a few are still performed today. The guqin and its music were recognised by UNESCO as part of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2003.
