【解析】

试题分析：该类试题主要考察考生的单词和短语积累。主要需要注意各个词的词性和词义，以及各种特殊结构等问题。

【1】older 考察比较级。从后面的than可以看出前面的词应该是比较级，因为所给单词old表示老的，是形容词，所以后面加上er变为older。记住，你的父亲只比你大一岁。

【小题2】foolish考察形容词。所给单词fool是名词，意思为傻瓜。该空前面的something是不定代词，后面用形容词修饰，故将fool变为foolish。

【3】had stopped 考察时态。根据he said可以知道时态为一般过去式，他说的内容是他们已经停止喝酒了，停止喝酒这个动作一定发生在“他说”这个动作之前，所以用过去完成时had stopped。

【4】but 考察连词。结合该空前后句子意思分别为：我爱爸爸、我讨厌他的周会…可以知道这里的连词应该是表示转折，故用but。

【5】from 考察固定结构。固定结构take sb．away from sb把某人从某人身边带走。故用介词from。

【6】exception 考察名词。因为该空前面有一个冠词an，冠词是用来修饰名词的，所以后面应该是一个名词，但是所给单词是except是一个动词，故将except变为名词exception（例外）。

【7】was refused 考察被动语态。结合上文来看，我爱爸爸，但是我很讨厌他因为要开会把我丢下。因为是周六是我的生日，所以我乞求他陪我过生日，但是我被拒绝了。文章基本时态为一般过去式，所以用was refused。

【8】feeling 考察非谓语动词。这里是现在分词做伴随状语。周六的晚上，我坐在床边，感到很遗憾。所给单词是feel动词，意思是感受，后加ing变成现在分词feeling

【9】What 考察特殊疑问句引导词。该句中主语是I，谓语是would do，缺少宾语，所以用what。

【10】（who/that was） called 考察定语从句/非谓语动词。先行词为man，是人。所以可以用who/that引导的定语从句，who/that引导的定语从句是对前面的man的修饰解释。如果去掉who/that was，只填called那就是非谓语动词做状语，因为那个人是被叫做大卫，所以是被动关系，故用called
