【解析】

试题分析：本文是一篇记叙文。叙述了作者和弟弟去迈阿密度假，他们下了飞机就赶往提前已经预定好了的房间的旅馆，结果到了之后发现，前台把预定房间的时间弄错了，正当他们不知怎么办的时候，经理过来了，问明了情况后，就给他们开了一个VIP的房间，也没有向他们再加钱。他们在那里的度假非常愉快。

1.it 考查代词及语境的理解。以前去过那里的朋友说它是一个很好的度假的地方。这里根据上文可知前面提到了一个地方—Miami，这里为了避免重复，而用代词it代替的是迈阿密。it可以代替的是同一事物或同一个地方。

2.earlier 考查形容词比较级及语境的理解。这里是暗含比较，虽然没有比较连词，但是在到达之前早就预定好的，所以应该用比较级。这个题如果考生没有看出是暗含比较很容易填原形。

3.were told 考查动词的语态及语境的理解。这里we与tell之间是被动关系，即服务员告诉我们，我们的房间没有预定上。故用were told。这里考生必须理解上文的意思，才能正确判断这个句子的主谓之间的关系。

4.but 考查并列连词及语境的理解。服务员告诉我们那周的房间没有预定上而是定了之后一周的房间。这里not…but不是……而是，用but表示前后是转折关系。如果考生不能正确理解这句的句意，很难想到用but。

5.why 考查宾语从句的连接词及语境的理解。我不知道为什么这种事会发生。这里why引导的是宾语从句，判断用哪个连词主要考查考生对上下文的语境的理解。这个题只要考生能够理解句意，一般能够做对的。

6.for 考查介词。我的信用卡已经支付了这次的预定房间的钱款。这里是短语charge sb for sth因为某事而向某人索要钱。主要考查考生能够看出这里是短语的被动形式。故用for。

7.surprisingly 考查副词。她是非常地乐于助人。这里helpful是形容词，副词来修饰形容词。Surprise是名词或动词；surprising是形容词；surprisingly是副词。这里主要考查考生对于词性转换掌握的情况，必须了解这几个词之间的词性变化。

8.the 考查冠词。她向我们道歉，并给我们在顶层提供了一个VIP会员房间。这里一个楼层的顶部当然是特指的，所以应该用定冠词the。

9.where 考查定语从句。第二天我和弟弟到了海滩，在那里我们看到一些人打篮球。Beach是先行词，where引导的是定语从句，它在从句中作地点状语。这个题需要考生会分析句子成分，掌握关系词在句中的作用。

10.sunburned/ sunburnt 考查非谓语动词。我们有点晒黑了。sunburn晒黑，是动词或名词。get被用来代替助动词be，get和过去分词连用，构成被动结构，表示某一事件或事故的发生，着重强调动作。即get + done结构，故用过去分词sunburned/ sunburnt。

考点：语法填空。
