30、s中国书法无与伦比，是因为它的美丽、优雅和历史。修饰名词beauty，grace和history应使用形容词性物主代词。故填its。3origins句子的谓语为“are unknown，”因此主语应为名词复数形式。故填origins。4as/intounite.as/into把合并成/统一为，是固定搭配。故填as/into。5makingmake和主语构成主动关系，故用现在分词作结果状语。故填making。6freely副词修饰过去分词written。故填freely。7appreciated此处用过去分词做后置定语，修饰art form，具有逻辑上的被动关系，意为“被高度欣赏的艺术形式”。故填appreciated。8whatwhat引导主语从句，并在从句中作主语。故填what。9is needed掌握书法，不仅需要练习，天赋也是必要的。not only和but also连接两个名词做主语时，谓语动词的数与but also后的名词保持一致。natural talent作主语，故用单数形式，又因其与need构成被动关系，故用被动语态。10benefitbe of benefit to/be beneficial to对有益处。故填benefit。
