【解析】

试题分析：了解到吸烟对健康的危害，作者决定戒烟。戒烟期间，作者脾气暴躁，食欲增强，给妻子带来了不少的麻烦。朋友们也不停的引诱“我”继续吸烟，最终作者未能抗拒诱惑，戒烟失败。

【1】lit/lighted；考查动词时态。从全文可知，本文主要时态为过去时态，即发生在过去，故填light的过去式lit或lighted。

【2】and；考察关联词。从句意可知，concentration和pleasure是并列关系，即“十分专注与愉悦地”，填and。

【3】cigarette；考查名词。从上句可知，作者决定戒烟，即现在抽的是最后一支烟，填cigarette。

【4】a；考察定冠词。从whole week可知此处形容的是单数，故填a。

【5】terribly；考察副词。此处terrible形容suffered，只有副词才能形容动词，故转换为terribly。

【6】me；考察动词词组搭配。Offer sb sth“提供某人某物”，此处句意为“朋友们继续给我香烟和雪茄”，故填me。

【7】to；考察动词词组搭配。Make no effort t do sth“不遗余力做某事”，即“只要我从口袋里拿出糖，他们就会不遗余力地在我面前表现出抽烟的快乐”，故填to。

【8】uncomfortable；考查形容词。作者处于戒烟的状态，而身边的人都在抽烟，那么作者肯定会觉得不舒服，所以变成否定形式，故填uncomfortable。

【9】delighted；考查动词。Delight作动词时意为“使高兴，使欣喜”，上文提到作者戒烟期间给妻子带来困扰，所以作者放弃戒烟了之后，妻子对生活回到正常状态感到高兴与愉悦，填delighted。

【10】it；考察指示代词。为了避免句子头重脚轻，it指代to give up smocking 保持句子结构平衡，句意明确。填it。
