1.考查固定短语。at the end of在……尽头，这里在花园的尽头。

2.考查固定句式。It seems+形容词+that…似乎怎样。这里it是形式主语，that引导的是真正的主语从句。

3.考查形容词。因为前有系动词故用形容词fit.

4.考查名词。因为前有形容词性物主代词修饰，所以后用名词birthday.

5.考查短语。因为前有系动词，故用短语作表语due to由于。

6.考查名词。表示原因与介词for连用的只能用reason.

7.考查动名词。Start +doing这是固定短语，故用smoking.

8.考查固定短语。这是固定短语give up放弃。

9.考查动词。根据前面begin smoking 可以推知后面说的是停止stop.

10.考查副词。放在句中表示“也”用also.
