答案解析：
46. lucky “luck”是名词，“year”是名词，需要形容词修饰，“lucky”是形容词，意为“幸运的”。
47. have admired “since ancient times”（自古以来）是现在完成时的标志词，结构为“have/has + 过去分词”，主语是“they”，所以用“have admired”。
48. animals “twelve”（十二）后接名词复数，“animal”的复数是“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），此处需要形容词性物主代词，“it”的形容词性物主代词是“its”。
51. fifth 表示“第五个”要用序数词，“five”（五）的序数词是“fifth”。
52. was started “Dragon Dance”（舞龙）与“start”（开始）是被动关系，“during the Han Dynasty”（在汉代）表明是过去的时间，所以用一般过去时的被动语态，“start”的过去分词是“started”，结合主语“Dragon Dance”是单数，故用“was started”。
53. longer “the + 比较级，the + 比较级”（越......，越......），“long”的比较级是“longer”。
54. can't run 根据句意，此处表示“不能”，用“can't”，后接动词原形“run”。
55. deeply “deep”作副词时表示“深地”，侧重于具体的深度；“deeply”作副词时表示“深深地”，侧重于抽象的程度。此处“rooted”是动词，需要副词修饰，“深深地根植”用“deeply”。
