Every four years, millions of people gather in summer 【1】(watch) soccer games. This year, the World Cup kicked off on June 14 in Russia.

Specially prepared for the most exciting sporting event, Live It Up, the official World Cup song, was released on May 25. 【2】(perform) by US artists Nicky Jam, Will Smith, and Albanian singer Era Istref, the song has a line that goes, "One life, live it up, because we got one life."

【解析】

这是一篇议论文。文章讲了每隔四年，为了看足球赛，成千上万的人在夏天聚在一起，人们在看球赛的同时，也在欣赏着世界杯之歌。事实上，足球和音乐有着许多共同之处。

【1】考查不定式。句意：每隔四年，为了看足球赛，成千上万的人在夏天聚在一起。题干中表示“为了…”，用不定式作目的状语，所以填to watch。

【2】考查非谓语动词。“世界杯歌曲”和“演奏”之间是被动关系，用过去分词作定语，所以填Performed。

【3】考查名词。该空作stands for的宾语，用名词，所以填excitement。

【4】考查定语从句。___4___ people all over the world would share during the 2018 World Cup是一个定语从句，the unity，该空需要填一个关系词，关系词在从句中作宾语，指物，所以填that/which。

【5】考查时态。句意：事实上，从1966年第一首官方世界杯歌曲出现以来，足球和音乐的关系变得越来越强。根据“since…”，可知这里用现在完成时，所以填has grown。

【6】考查固定结构。One of + 可数名词复数，表示“…中之一”，该结构是固定结构，所以填coaches。

【7】考查强调句。把It is和该空去掉，这个句子结构仍然完整，所以这个句子是一个强调句。强调句的基本结构是it is/was + 被强调部分 + that + 句子的其他成分，所以填that。

【8】考查副词。句意：事实上，正确的音乐可以有重大影响。该空位于句首，修饰整个句子，所以用副词，填Actually。

【9】考查固定短语。句意：正如哥伦比亚的音乐家Juanes所说，足球和音乐有许多共同之处。In common共同的，该短语是固定短语，所以填in。

【10】考查固定短语。句意：但是它们让我们想到同一件事情。one and the same thing同一件事情，该短语是固定短语，所以填the。

小题7考查强调句。这道题的关键在于能够准确判断出强调句，英语强调句型的基本结构是“It+be+被强调成分+that (who)…”。在该结构中，It was…that (who)… 为强调句的结构词，原则上说，若将其去掉，句子意思依然清楚、结构依然完整。如：1. It was Jack who stole our money. 是杰克偷了我们的钱。若去掉it was…who…，即为：Jack stole our money. 杰克偷了我们的钱。2. It was in May that you can see this kind of flower. 你在五月可以看到这种花。

若去掉it was…that…，即为：In May you can see this kind of flower. 你在五月可以看到这种花。若去掉It was…that (who)…结构词，句子意思则不通、结构则不完整，那么就可能不是强调句。
