Answer

1.developing→developed

2.if→whether

3.with

4.fortunate→unfortunate

5.reaching \, to

【解析】

1.考查非谓语。修饰前面的名词system, 省略了which was这两个词，名词与非谓语是被动关系，用developed。故把developing→developed。

2.名词性从句的一种，宾语从句中介词后面表达“是否”，只能用whether，不能用if。故把if→whether。

3.因为定语从句还原的时候，应该是aspirin can help with other things。故填with。

4.根据汉语意思，fortunate 应该加上否定前缀，答案为unfortunate。故把fortunate→unfortunate。

5.reach 此处是及物动词，意为“到达”。故把reaching后面的to去掉。
