64、ortunately解析：考查副词。空处修饰动词rescued，故用副词形式。3living解析：考查现在分词。名词villagers和动词live之间是逻辑上的主谓关系，故用现在分词作后置定语。4after解析：考查连词。根据该句“Basi came to fame shortly _she was chosen as the model for Pan Pan, the mascot of the 1990 Asian Games in Beijing.”并结合语境可知，在被选为1990年北京亚运会的吉祥物盼盼的原型后不久，巴斯就声名鹊起。故用连词after。5illnesses解析：考查
