【答案】 welcoming；national；are packed；which；to；memories；bitterly；to visit；an；is
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文，对世界各地的许多人来说，除夕是国家的假日。作者回忆了除夕的许多美好记忆。
（1）考查非谓语动词。句意：这总是一个令人兴奋的时刻，因为人们期待着迎接新的一年。look forward to固定短语，“期待”，to是介词，后面接动名词，所以填welcoming。（2）考查形容词。句意：对世界各地的许多人来说，除夕是国家的假日。该空修饰名词holiday，用形容词，所以填national。
（3）考查时态语态。句意：在很多国家，人们会回老家过年，所以通常火车和公共汽车上都挤满了人。描述经常或反复发生的动作，用一般现在时。"火车和公共汽车"与"挤满"之间是被动关系，用被动语态，所以填are packed。
（4）考查定语从句。句意：在英国，人们通常在某人家里举行新年晚会，邀请朋友、家人和邻居。_________ is usually held at someone's home and the host invites friends, families and neighbors.是一个非限制性定语从句，先行词是a New Year's Eve party，关系词在从句中作主语，指物，故填which。
（5）考查介词。句意：客厅变成了一个迷你迪斯科舞厅，每个人都随着响亮的音乐跳舞。dance to固定短语，“随着……起舞”，故填to。
（6）考查名词。句意：我对除夕有很多美好的回忆。"美好的回忆"是复数意义，用名词复数，故填memories。
（7）考查副词。句意：天下着雪，冷得刺骨。修饰形容词cold，用副词，故填bitterly。（8）考查非谓语动词。句意：在那里，参拜神社并祈求好运是一种传统。不定式作主语，一般用it作形式主语，把作主语的不定式短语后置，故填to visit。
（9）考查冠词。句意：我想无论你在哪里，除夕总是一个令人兴奋的日子。泛指"一个令
人兴奋的日子"，exciting的首字母发音是元音，所以填不定冠词an。
（10）考查时态。句意：也许迎接新年的最后一种方式是在世界各地的城市观看令人惊叹的烟花表演。描述经常或反复发生的动作，用一般现在时，所以填is。
【点评】本题考点涉及非谓语动词，形容词，时态语态，定语从句，介词，副词以及故此等多个知识点的考查，是一篇文化类阅读，要求考生在理解细节信息的基础上，进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系，并结合相关语法知识，进行分析推理，从而写出正确的单词形式。

Sometimes, they will use an unmanned aircraft ________ (gather) data closer to the ocean's surface.
Though these flights can be long,________(tire) and often last several days in a row, Martin likes her job and wishes she could fly every day.
【答案】 what；spinning；her；are set；direction；typically；to；where；to gather；tiring 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了Cathy Martin 以及她的团队是如何收集数据预测飓风的。
（1）考查宾语从句。句意：每年有六个月的时间，她是一个团队的成员，这个团队收集她所说的“重要数据，以拯救生命和财产”。本句为宾语从句，因为从句中缺少宾语，指代事物，故填what。
