【解析】本文讲述了不同的京剧脸谱颜色代表不同的人物类型和性格品质。

【1】考查形容词性物主代词。这里用形容词性物主代词their修饰名词faces，句意：京剧角色要求表演者绘脸谱来代表不同的人物类型和性格品质。故这里用their。

【2】考查名词复数。这里并列连词and前后的可数名词都用复数形式character types and qualities（人物类型和性格品质），故用qualities。

【3】句意：在京剧中，绘脸谱是非常复杂的。但是，在开始时，只有三种颜色被使用——红色，白色和黑色。in the beginning“起初，首先”。故这里用beginning。

【4】考查固定搭配such as（例如，像）。句意：现在，很多种其他的颜色——例如黄色、紫色、蓝色和绿色，被用来绘脸谱。故这里用as。

【5】考查介词。be famous for“因……而著名”。句意：他因对他的君主刘备非常忠诚而有名。故这里用for。

【6】考查定语从句的关系词。定语从句中先行词是不定代词all，故定语从句关系代词用that。句意：白色突出了所有人类天性中坏的一面。

【7】考查谓语动词。句意：它表明了不诚实和背叛。这里谓语动词用三单形式，故用suggests。

【8】考查形容词作定语。句意：其中一个典型的白脸人物是曹操，三国时期一位有权势的、残酷的丞相。故这里用形容词powerful作定语修饰prime minister。

【9】考查副词。句意：黑脸谱通常被使用来代表那些残暴的人。这里用副词usually修饰句子。

【10】考查不定式作状语。句意：为了提供每个人物角色的清晰画面，所有这些不同的颜色被使用在京剧脸谱中。这里表示目的，故用不定式。
