答案
一、1. horse 文章第一段讲到中国生肖，提到2026年对应的生肖动物，结合常识可知2026年是马年，所以填horse。
2. language 第二段开头提到“Chinese is a little difficult.”，这里的“Chinese”指的是中文这门语言，而后文也围绕中文展开，所以填language。
3. thousands 根据原句“It has ____ of characters.”，再结合前面提到中文书写有上千年历史可知，这里表示汉字的数量，“thousands of”意为成千上万，符合语境，所以填thousands。
4. meaning 根据原句“A character stands for a word and also a ____.”可知，汉字既代表一个词，也代表其含义，所以填mean的名词形式meaning，表示“含义”。
5. other 根据原句“Besides Putonghua, Chinese people speak some ____ forms of the language”可知，除了普通话，还有其他形式的中文，所以填other，表示“其他的”。
二、1. B 中国生肖周期每12年重复一次。
2. B 汉字既代表词汇也代表含义。
3. B 作者在同一段落中提到普通话和方言，是为了强调中国语言的统一性和多样性。
三、1. D 马在文化中常代表速度、活力与自由，因此对应选项D。文中提到2026年是马年。
2. B 龙年对应真实年份（如2024年），象征可以描述为“Symbol of power（权力）”或“Symbol of luck（吉祥）”。
3. A 2023年为兔年，直接对应选项A。兔通常象征温和、敏捷。
4. C 虎在传统文化中代表勇敢、威严，因此对应选项C。2022年为虎年。
