解析：
1. 句意:近年来,发布了各种各样针对学生的学习应用软件。 固定搭配:a variety of各种各样的,故把various改为variety。
2. 泛指所有的学生用可数名词复数形式,故把student改为students。
3. 句意:这些应用程序中的大多数都允许用户拍摄他们的作业照片,而正确的答案将会出现在他们的智能手机上。应该是“他们的”用代词their,故把our改为their。
4. 句意:尽管这些应用程序很方便。尽管as/though,引导让步状语从句,把作表语的形容词放在句首,故在they前面加as/though。
5. 句意:但它们给家长和老师都带来了问题。固定搭配:present something to somebody 把......呈现给某人。

解析：
1.第一句 attaching→attach 考查非谓语动词。此处为动词不定式作目的状语，此处to是不定式的to，后面接动词原形，用attach。
2. 第一句 去掉China前面的and 考查连接词。逗号前面是目的状语，不是句子，因此不需要连接词来连接，故去掉and。
3.第一句 interest→interesting 考查形容词。此处为形容词作定语，修饰后面的名词。
4. 第二句 A→The 考查冠词。此处contest是第二次出现，属于特指，应用the。
5.第二句 end→ends考查主谓一致。此句中有连接词and，根据前后一致的原则，前面是谓语动词starts，用三单形式，故end也用三单形式，ends。
6. 第三句 that→which 考查关系代词。此处为非限制性定语从句，that不能引导非限制性定语从句，从句缺少主语，指代前面China Daily newspaper，故用which。
7.第三句student→students 考查名词单复数。此处是指高中的学生们，应用复数。
8. 第四句must后加 be 考查语态。此处意思是答题卡被剪下来，应用被动语态，而且must是情态动词，后接动词原形，故加be。
9.第四句after→before 考查连词。此处意为“在截止日期之前”，而不是之后，故用before。
10. 第五句 them→it 考查代词。此处是指参加这个竞赛，单数，故用it来代替。
二、语法填空
（1）答案：1. which 2. growth 3. Its 4. to unite 5. a 6. that 7. actually 8. be applied 9. observing 10. reflects
解析： 【1题详解】考查定语从句。此处为非限定性定语从句，先行词是a timeless bridge，关系词在从句中做主语，应使用关系代词which引导。故填which。
【2题详解】考查名词。此处做start和support的宾语，意为“开始并支持成长”，应使用名词。故填growth。
【3题详解】考查形容词性物主代词。此处指“它的智慧和能力”，应使用形容词词性物主代词。故填Its。
【4题详解】考查不定式。此处指“有一种方法来统一身体、思想和精神——持久和真正的健康的基础”，way“方式，方法”，常用不定式做定语。故填to unite。
【5题详解】考查不定冠词。固定短语：live a…life“过着一种……的生活”。故填a。
【6题详解】考查主语从句。此处it是形式主语，真正的主语是后面的从句，从句不缺成分，应使用只起连接作用的代词that引导。故填that。
【7题详解】考查副词。此处修饰动词been，应使用副词形式。故填actually。
【8题详解】考查被动语态。句意：中医可以被应用于帮助治愈任何人。根据句意，此处应使用被动语态。故填be applied。
【9题详解】考查现在分词。此处位于介词of后且表动作，应使用现在分词。故填observing。
【10题详解】考查主谓一致。“every+名词单数”做主语时，谓语动词使用第三人称单数形式。故填reflects。
（2）答案：
1．helping 2．which 3．Greatly 4．with 5．he 6．the 7．to look 8．but 9．forgot 10．singers
（3）答案：1. where 2. had noticed 4. it 4. an 5. loss 6. valuable 7. into 8. faster 9. prepared 10. that
解析：
【1题详解】where 此处Chinatown是先行词,在后面的非限制性定语从句中作地点状语,故填where。
【2题详解】had noticed 在That was the first time that...句型中,前面是was,所以从句中用过去完成时态,故填had noticed。
【3题详解】it 此处用it指代前面的the food。
【4题详解】an energy以元音开头,“很多年前中国有一个能源危机”,故填an。
【5题详解】loss 根据句意可知,此处缺主语,所以应该用名词形式,故填loss。
【6题详解】valuable 形容词修饰名词,故填valuable(有价值的)。
【7题详解】into 句意:把肉和蔬菜切成小块。根据句意可知填into。
【8题详解】faster 根据后面的more,可知此处用比较级,故填faster。
【9题详解】prepared 此处是过去分词作后置定语,故填prepared。
【10题详解】that 此处是强调句型,故填that。
（4）答案：does; weaknesses ; simply; has been explored; better; as/though; nothing; rejecting; showed; on
