四、答案:①to ②as ③using ④where ⑤its ⑥equipment ⑦hearts' ⑧millions ⑨to communicate ⑩but
解析:①考查介词。句意: 它的历史追溯到两千多年前的古代中国。go back to追溯到, 故填to。
②考查介词。be known as被认为是。
③考查动词-ing形式。分析句子结构可知, 空前已有谓语动词, 且没有连词, 所以此处为非谓语动词。根据句子的逻辑关系可知, 设空处作伴随状语, 句子主语和use是逻辑上的主谓关系, 故填using。
④考查关系副词。Great Britain为定语从句的先行词, 关系词在从句中作地点状语, 故填where。
⑤考查物主代词。空后是名词, 需用形容词性物主代词修饰, 故填its。
⑥考查名词构词法。空前是形容词, 所以设空处应是名词, 故填equipment。
⑦考查名词复数及所有格。空前为their, 所以heart要用复数, 同时与后面的名词content是所属关系, 故填hearts'。
⑧考查数词。millions of数以百万计的, 故填millions。
⑨考查动词不定式。设空处应作定语, 修饰ways, 所以要用不定式, 故填to communicate。
⑩考查连词。前后为转折关系, 故填but。
