解析
本题要求考生首先要明确每个单词和短语的意思，特别是一词多义。然后根据上下文的语义串联选出合适的词或者短语，要特别注意词性和时态语态的变化。
小题1: artists名词artist艺术家；句义：这让这个国家的艺术家花了10年的时间才完成。
小题2: hopeless 句义：很多国王和王子都想娶Atlanta，当他们听说规则的时候，都知道他们没有希望了。本句的关键在于连词but表示上下文之间的转折关系，说明他们认为自己没有希望了。
小题3:goal 句义：我的目标就是给人们通过高质量的生活。本句中不定式在句中做表语，表示具体要做的事情。
小题4:came into being 固定搭配come into being形成，产生，出现；在人类出现之前，恐龙已经在地球上生活了很多年。本句要注意的是时态。
小题5:attach 固定搭配attach importance to重视…；句义：他们中的很多人过于重视名利。
小题6:concerned about 固定搭配：be concerned about…担心…；句义：如果你的朋友来到学校，很难过，你要告诉他/她你很担心他。放学以后会和他好好地谈谈。
小题7: fluent 形容词fluent流利的；通常用来修饰语言。
小题8:shortcoming 句义：我很喜欢我的妹妹王蓓，但是她又一个很大的缺点—她可能太固执了。过于固执正是人的一个缺点。所以使用名词shortcoming。
小题9: injured 形容词injured通常表示的是在事故里受伤。句义：去世和受伤的人数达到40多万。本句的injured与killed形成呼应。
小题10:. generous 形容词generous慷慨的。根据第二句for which Elias was very grateful.可知Elias心存感激，说明Mandela花了很多时间帮助他，所以Mandela对于时间很慷慨。

例：one→first
two→second
three→third
five→fifth
eight→eighth
nine→ninth
twelve→twelfth
③十位整数序数词的构成方法是将基数词的词y变成i，然后再加eth。
例：twenty→twentieth
thirty→thirtieth
forty→fortieth
ninety→ninetieth
④两位或两位以上的基数词变成序数词时，仅将个位数变成序数词。
例：twenty－one→twenty－first
thirty－five→thirty－fifth
a hundred and fifty－three→a hundred and fifty－third
2、序数词的用法：
①序数词在使用时，一般加上定冠词。
