解析：
52．答案： is remembered； years； an； wrking； t spend； death； widely； them； wh； t
解析： ①考查动词的时态和被动语态。句意：现在他被人们记住是因为他的教学还有他学生的作品,它们在他去世的许多年后形成了儒学的规则。空格处在句中作谓语,根据时间状语Nw可知,应用一般现在时,主语he和动词remember之间是被动关系,应用一般现在时的被动语态,且主语为he,谓语动词应用第三人称单数形式。故填is remembered。
②考查名词的数。句意：现在他被人们记住是因为他的教学还有他学生的作品,它们在他去世的许多年后形成了儒学的规则。many修饰可数名词复数,空格处应填名词的复数形式。故填years。
③考查冠词。句意：孔子过着十分活跃的政治生活。live a/an…life为固定搭配,意为"过着……的生活",active为元音音素开头,需用不定冠词an。故填an。
④考查非谓语动词。句意：从他作为司法行政部长的工作开始,他参与了一项运动让鲁国远离国家的统治而不为中央政府工作。instead f为固定搭配,意为"而不是"其中f为介词,应用动名词形式作宾语。故填wrking。
⑤考查非谓语动词。句意：在被送到另一个国家生活很短的一段时间之后,孔子终于可以回到鲁国以哲学老师的身份度过了他的余生。culd return为谓语,空格处需填非谓语动词作目的状语,应用动词不定式。故填t spend。
⑥考查名词。句意：即使到了孔子死后,他的教学仍然在中国没有被广泛接受,当秦始皇下令焚烧孔子的书籍时大部分典籍都丢失了。根据空格前的名词所有格Cnfucius’s可知,空格处应填名词形式,death为不可数名词。故填death。
⑦考查副词。句意：即使到了孔子死后,他的教学仍然在中国没有被广泛接受,当秦始皇下令焚烧孔子的书籍时大部分典籍都丢失了。空格处修饰动词accepted,作状语,应用副词形式。故填widely。
⑧考查代词。句意：即使到了孔子死后,他的教学仍然在中国没有被广泛接受,当秦始皇下令封焚烧孔子的书籍时大部分典籍都丢失了。空格处作介词f的宾语,应用代词的宾格形式。故填them。
⑨考查定语从句。句意：,汉武帝受到了孔子的社会和政治智慧的启发,接受儒家思想并将他的道德体系从课堂御用到法庭。此处为非限制性定语从句修饰先行词Emperr Han Wudi,先行词在从句中作主语,只能用wh引导从句。故填wh。
⑩考查介词。句意：汉武帝受到了孔子的社会和政治智慧的启发,接受儒家思想并将他的道德体系从课堂御用到法庭。…为固定搭配,意为"从……到……"。故填t。
