答案
1.to play 考查非谓语动词。learn to do sth.学会做某事。
2.was impressed 考查动词的时态和语态。be impressed by对……印象深刻,此处叙述的是过去的事情,因此用一般过去时的被动语态。

4.older 考查比较等级。此处暗含两者年龄的比较,因此用比较级。
5.had known 考查动词的时态。主句是过去的动作,时间状语从句的动作发生在主句前,因此是“过去的过去”,应用过去完成时。

7.who/that 考查强调句型。此处强调主语,故用who/that。
8.to move 考查非谓语动词。encourage sb. to do sth.鼓励某人做某事。
