　　答案解析：

　　46. lucky  “luck”是名詞，“year”是名詞，需要形容詞修飾，“lucky”是形容詞，意為“幸運的”。

　　47. have admired  “since ancient times”（自古以來）是現在完成時的標志詞，結構為“have/has + 過去分詞”，主語是“they”，所以用“have admired”。

　　48. animals  “twelve”（十二）后接名詞復數，“animal”的復數是“animals”。

　　49. to fly  “the ability to do sth.”（做某事的能力）是固定搭配。

　　50. its  “on one's way to...”（在某人去...的路上），此處需要形容詞性物主代詞，“it”的形容詞性物主代詞是“its”。

　　51. fifth  表示“第五個”要用序數詞，“five”（五）的序數詞是“fifth”。

　　52. was started  “Dragon Dance”（舞龍）與“start”（開始）是被動關系，“during the Han Dynasty”（在漢代）表明是過去的時間，所以用一般過去時的被動語態，“start”的過去分詞是“started”，結合主語“Dragon Dance”是單數，故用“was started”。

　　53. longer  “the + 比較級，the + 比較級”（越......，越......），“long”的比較級是“longer”。

　　54. can't run  根據句意，此處表示“不能”，用“can't”，后接動詞原形“run”。

　　55. deeply  “deep”作副詞時表示“深地”，側重于具體的深度；“deeply”作副詞時表示“深深地”，側重于抽象的程度。此處“rooted”是動詞，需要副詞修飾，“深深地根植”用“deeply”。
