98、scribeuse sth to do sth “用某物做某事”是固定搭配，此处是其被动语态，故填to describe。6.back根据空后的the beginnings可知，空处应填back “追溯至”。7.Inin fact表示“事实上”，为固定短语，故填In。8.closely空处修饰动词worked，故用副词形式。close作副词时表示“不远，接近地”；closely为副词，表示“密切地，在很大程度上”。根据语境可知，空处应填closely。9.their根据语境及空后的traditional roles可知，空处应填形容词性物主代词。10.and本句中feed，take和look after是并列谓语，如果三个或三个以上的谓语动词并列，在最后两个动作之间用and连接，其他的用逗号分开，因此这里用连词and。
