【解析】

【1】

考查副詞。句意：最初，我們原計劃去蘇格蘭旅游，但最后沒有去。此處是副詞作狀語，修飾整個句子，此處用副詞Originally（最初地），首字母大寫。故填Originally。

【2】

考查形容詞。句意：畫中的時鐘象征著時間的流逝。名詞representation要形容詞修飾，此處用形容詞symbolic（象征性的）作定語。故填symbolic。

【3】

考查過去分詞。句意：圣安德魯學院坐落在阿爾馬諾爾湖畔，四周盡是自然美景。本句已有謂語is surrounded by且無連詞，此處用非謂語形式，主語St. Andrew's Academy和動詞locate（坐落）是邏輯上的被動關系，應用過去分詞表被動，作狀語。故填located。

【4】

考查形式賓語。句意：因特網被設計的目的是使人們更容易地獲得他們需要的信息。make后面真正的賓語是to access the information they need，此處用形式賓語it指代這個動詞不定式短語。故填it。

【5】

考查名詞。句意：理查森從他的研究中得出結論，兩性平等還有很長的路要走。此處是名詞作主語，應用名詞equality（平等）。故填equality。

【6】

考查連詞。句意：盡管夜間空氣很熱，但我們睡得很沉，因為我們辛苦工作了一天，累得要命。此處意為“盡管”，是由as/though引導的讓步狀語從句的倒裝形式，即“表語+ as/though +主語+系動詞”結構，此結構表倒裝。故填as/though。

【7】

考查時態(tài)。句意：到去年年底，他已花光了他從父親那里繼承的所有錢。此處缺乏謂語動詞，時間“By the end of +過去的時間”是過去完成時的標志，用過去完成時（had done）。故填had run。

【8】

考查動詞。句意：此舉顯然是打算加強總統作為國家元首的地位。固定搭配be intended to do sth.，意為“試圖/打算做某事”，應用動詞原形strengthen（加強）。故填strengthen。

【9】

考查固定搭配。句意：我向經理抱怨服務質量，但沒有得到任何滿意。固定搭配complain to sb. about sth.，意為“向某人抱怨某事”，應用介詞to。故填to。

【10】

考查強調句型。句意：你又是因為交通擁擠而遲到了？此句為強調句型“It is/was +被強調部分+ that /who+從句”，原句為：It was because the traffic was heavy during the rush hour that you were late again，被強調部分是because the traffic was heavy during the rush hour（指事情），應用that。故填that。
