答案：

Ⅰ.【语篇导读】本文是说明文,介绍了中国航天发展史上的先驱和奠基人钱学森的情况,重点介绍了他从美国返回中国为国效力的事情。

1.when　解析考查定语从句。分析该句结构并根据空前的in1935可知,空处引导定语从句,故填when。该句意为:钱学森1911年出生于中国,在上海交通大学主修铁道工程,但当他在1935年来到美国攻读硕士学位时,转向了航空学专业。

2.earned　解析考查时态语态。根据该句中的时间状语“in1936”可知,该句陈述的是过去发生的事情,故用一般过去时。

3.his　解析考查代词。空处和后面的名词request为所有关系,故用形容词性物主代词his。该句意为:1950年,他返回中国的请求被拒绝。

4.wasappointed　解析考查时态语态和主谓一致。该句主语为Qian,是第三人称单数,故谓语动词用单数形式;根据语境可知,该句陈述的是过去发生的事情,故用一般过去时;主语Qian和动词appoint之间为被动关系,故用被动语态。该句意为:钱学森一回到中国,就被任命为位于北京的中国科学院力学研究所所长。

5.delivered　解析考查非谓语动词。分析该句结构可知,空处作前面的名词短语“anatomicbomb”的后置定语,由句中的“byamediumandshortrangemissile”可知,该名词短语和动词“deliver”之间为逻辑上的动宾关系,故用过去分词作后置定语。

6.to　解析考查介词。contributeto为固定搭配,意为“对……做出贡献”。该句意为:他还为中国在1970年发射第一颗卫星做出了贡献。

7.providing　解析考查非谓语动词。介词后通常接名词、代词、动词-ing形式作宾语,根据介词for可知,空处用动词-ing形式。

8.especially　解析考查词性转换。副词修饰形容词。空处修饰形容词“influential”,故用副词形式。该句意为:直到2009年去世,他在推动航空航天项目和其他领域的系统工程方面十分有影响力。

9.areas　解析考查名词的数。area为可数名词,根据other和常识可知,除航空航天外的其他领域有许多,故用复数形式。

10.a　解析考查冠词。此处泛指“一位先驱和奠基人”,故用不定冠词;pioneering的发音以辅音音素开头,故用a。

Ⅱ.　　

We have a lot of respectable people around us.One of the persons I respect is Van Oudenhove.He is a Belgian who has been teaching for about two years at university in Hebei.When the outbreak the city,many foreigners withdrew while he chose to stay, the only Belgian left in the city.He continued teaching his through online platforms.And he encouraged them when they got or nervous about the virus.He said,“I am a foreigner, not an outsider.” That’s I show my respect for him.I’ll always bear in my mind his contribution the city and his love of the people there.
