答案
H
解析
结合空前的动词began及空后的with可知,此处应填动词的过去式且该动词应能和介词 with构成常见搭配。选项的动词中只有H. unified同时符合这两个要求。此外,该题也可从语义角度分析:空后的and saw a connection between mental and physical health是承接本句说的,其中mental health对应German history and tradition;physical health对应exercise and sport。connection说明exercise and sport和 German history and tradition存在一种联系,选项的动词中只有unified能够体现这种联系,因此H正确。
