【解析】风中的竹子，虽然被狂风压弯，但是当风停止之后，很快又优雅的复归原位。作者从中受到启发，认为人也应该有这种适应能力。

【1】考查固定结构。“One of + 可数名词复数”表示“……中之一”，所以memory改成memories。

【2】考查语义理解。句意：我看到竹子在风的压力下弯曲。“在……之下”，用under。

【3】考查副词。修饰动词return用副词，填elegantly。

【4】考查时态。发生在过去的事情，用过去时态，所以填had died 或 died。

【5】考查固定用法。ability to do sth.表示“有能力做某事”，是固定用法，所以填to return。

【6】考查冠词。句意：生活是一种好时光和艰难时刻的混合物。泛指“一种混合物”，且mixture的首字母发音是辅音，所以填a。

【7】考查固定句型。keep it in mind that“记住”，是固定句型，所以填it。

【8】考查比较级。Much修饰比较级，所以填easier。

【9】考查固定用法。be worth doing“值得做某事”，是固定用法，所以填having。

【10】考查定语从句。___10___ take you close to your breaking point是一个非限制性定语从句，关系词指代整个主句内容，所以填which。
