【解析】

試題分析：新年送紅包，象征著對(duì)未來(lái)的美好祝愿。

【1】traditional 句意是：不是因?yàn)楝F(xiàn)金，而是因?yàn)樗�的傳統(tǒng)的對(duì)未來(lái)的象征和最美好的祝愿。形容詞修飾名詞，tradition是名詞“傳統(tǒng)”， traditional是形容詞“傳統(tǒng)的”，故填traditional。

【2】especially句意是尤其是在南方，especially尤其是，特別是，故填especially。

【3】as固定搭配regard…as…把---看作---，故填as。

【4】But魔鬼出現(xiàn)傷害孩子和老人，但是大的吵鬧聲會(huì)把這魔鬼嚇跑，紅顏色也是這樣。此處表示轉(zhuǎn)折故填But。

【5】the此處表示嚇跑這個(gè)魔鬼，特指，故填the。

【6】containing此處表示：含有錢的紅信封。這里是現(xiàn)在分詞做后置定語(yǔ)，故填containing。

【7】has survived句意是：傳統(tǒng)幸存了幾千年。故用現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)態(tài)，has survived。

【8】employees句意是：老板經(jīng)常給雇員紅包。employ動(dòng)詞“雇傭”， employee名詞“雇員”，此處用復(fù)數(shù)，故填employees.

【9】where句意是：公司采納網(wǎng)上市場(chǎng)策略，紅包被分發(fā)。Strategies做先行詞，后面是where引導(dǎo)的定語(yǔ)從句。故填where。

【10】their句意是：希望他們的公司和員工有一個(gè)好的開(kāi)始。形容詞性物主代詞放在名詞前面，根據(jù)句意這里填their。
