【解析】京剧脸谱，是根据某种性格、性情或某种特殊类型的人物为基础而采用某些色彩的。红色表示忠勇正义；如关羽、妾维、常遇春；白色的脸谱一般表示奸臣、坏人，如曹操、赵高等。黑色的脸谱表示刚烈、正直、勇猛甚至鲁莽，如包拯、张飞、李逵等；

【1】考查代词。名词前用形容词性物主代词，故填their。

【2】考查名词。根据different character types and得知and 连接并列名词，前面名词用复数形式，故填qualities。

【3】考查名词。in the beginning是固定短语，表示“一开始”，故填beginning。

【4】考查动词时态语态。颜色和使用是被动关系，讲述以前的事情用一般过去时，故填were used。

【5】考查介词。such as是固定短语，表示“例如”，故填as。

【6】考查名词。根据and loyalty and连接并列名词以及介词后面用名词得知，故填bravery。

【7】考查介词。be famous for 是固定短语，表示“以…而著名”，故填for。

【8】考查关系代词。all不定代词做先行词，定语从句中缺少主语，故填that。

【9】考查形容词。根据and cruel and连接并列形容词以及形容词修饰名词得知，故填powerful。

【10】考查副词。副词修饰动词，故填usually。

本题难点解读：

1：从句前有被修饰的先行词，或指代一件事情，且从句中缺少作主语、宾语、表语的引导词时，根据上下文考虑使用关系代词。

White means all ___8___ is bad in human nature.

此处是限制性定语从句，all不定代词做先行词，定语从句中缺少主语，故填that。

2：句中没有谓语动词，动词与主语有被动关系，说明需用谓语动词的被动语态。

only three colours___4___(use)-red, white and black.考查动词时态语态。颜色和使用是被动关系，讲述以前的事情用一般过去时，故填were used。
