[解析]
本文是一篇说明文。本文讲述随着中国经济快速发展，中国文化在世界上发挥着重要作用，越来越多的外国人在孔子学院学习汉语，我们应该重视我们的传统文化。
1．考查定语从句。句意：中国是一个古老的大国，有五千多年的历史。分析句子可知，本句是一个非限制性定语从句，先行词是China，在从句中作主语，所以用关系代词which引导。故填which。
2．考查代词。句意：我们为它的文化感到自豪，部分文化甚至对世界产生了巨大影响，比如孔子的思想。空处修饰名词culture应用形容词性物主代词its。故填its。
3．考查副词。句意：我们为它的文化感到自豪，部分文化甚至对世界产生了巨大影响，比如孔子的思想。空处修饰动词influence，应用副词，故填greatly。

6．考查被动语态。句意：中国传统文化可以用时间来检验。由句意可知，本句中主语与谓语动词构成被动关系，且情态动词can后跟动词原形，故填be tested。
7．考查介词。句意：现如今，许多年轻人对传统文化失去了信心，他们对西方文化着迷。短语be crazy about表示“对……着迷”为固定搭配，符合句意，故填about。
8．考查非谓语动词。句意：他们追随西方的时尚，认为我们是老式的。分析句子可知，已有谓语follow，所以think在句中作非谓语动词，且句子主语和think之间是逻辑主动关系，所以用现在分词作状语。故填thinking。
9．考查时态。句意：但总有一天，他们会意识到忽视传统文化是错误的。空处为句子的谓语，根据上文some day可知，表示未来某一天，时态用一般将来时。故填will realize。

If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!"
