28、“香港的大学”是复数意义，用名词复数，所以填universities。2where解析：考查定语从句。_2_ they can choose _3_ (work) and live after graduation，是一个定语从句，先行词是Hong Kong，关系词在从句中作地点状语，所以填关系副词where。3to_work解析：考查固定用法。文中表示“毕业后，他们可以选择在香港工作和生活”，choose to do选择去做某事，该用法是固定用法，所以填to work。4an解析：考查冠词。文中泛指“一位来自EIC集团的国际教育专家”，international的首字母发音是元音，所以填不定
29、冠词an。5especially解析：考查副词。句意：香港仍然需要更多有才能的人，特别是在金融、银行和旅游业方面。修饰整个句子，用副词，所以填especially。6has_developed解析：考查时态。根据时间状语in recent years，可知表示动作开始于过去某一时刻，一直延续到现在，或可能还要继续下去，用现在完成时，所以填has developed。7allowing解析：考查常见用法。介词by之后，接v.ing形式，所以填allowing。8on解析：考查介词。句意：6月27日，中央政府宣布了一系列改善香港与内地经济和文化关系的政策。表示“在某月某日”，用介词on，所以填on。9will_be_encouraged解析：考查时态。and连接并列句，前句exchanges between students and teachers from Hong Kong and mainland universities will be enlarged用的是一般将来时，所以这里也用一般将来时，“香港大学”和“鼓励”之间是被动关系，用被动语态，所以填will be encouraged。10better解析：考查比较级。句意：这些政策将在未来数年为在港就读的内地学生提供更多及更佳的就业机会。根据前文more，可知这里用比较级，所以填better。
