2．than 根据空前的better可知，此处为比较级，故应填介词than。 3．to gain 此处为不定式作后置定语，修饰名词way，故填to gain。 4．helpful 由Being可知，此处应填一个形容词，故填helpful。
5．winning 介词后跟名词、代词或动名词作宾语，故此处用winning作介词of的宾语。 6．attraction 根据空前的the main和空后的of可推知，此处应填一个名词，故填attraction。
7．without 根据上文的“respect is the beauty of life”可推知，没有尊重的生活是可怕的，故用介词without，后跟名词respect，表示“没有尊重”。
