【8】amazing

【9】changes

【10】patient

【解析】

试题分析：

【1】】was 根据本段第一句In 1969,the pollution was terrible可知本段叙述的是过去发生的事情。the Cuyahoga River Cleveland在过去被污染地如此地严重，过去没有人能够想象倒这条河被清理干净。

【2】actually 本句中使用副词actually做状语修饰谓语动词caught fire，actual是形容词，不能在句中做状语，通常只做定语或者表语修饰名词。

【3】the 本句横线后面的most是最高级的形式，所以使用the most outstanding的形式。

【4】 or 句意：但是这条河流的改变不是几天或者几个月的事情。本句中的or“或者”表示选择的意思。

【5】 to reduce 考察固定句式：It takes sb some time to do sth做某事花了某人…时间；句中的不定式to reduce he industrial pollution and clean the water是句子真正的主语。前面的it是形式主语。

【6】cleaner 句意：最后人们的努力得到了回报，现在这条河比以前更干净了。横线后面有than，说明横线上应该使用比较级的形式。

【7】that/which 本句是一个定语从句，先行词是a habit，定语从句中使用关系动词that/which指代先行词在句做主语。

【8】 amazing 现在分词转换的形容词常常修饰事物，过去分词转换的形容词常常修饰人或者与人有关的事物。横线后面是名词story，说明应该使用现在分词转换的形容词。

【9】 changes 本句中谓语部分是系动词are，说明主语应该是一个复数形式的名词，所以使用changes。

【10】patient 横线前面有系动词be，说明本句是一个祈使句be patient耐心一点。因为很多变化都是逐渐发生的，需要很多努力，我们要耐心一点。

【题目】Growing up, I remember my father as a silent, serious man—not the sort of person around whom one could laugh. As a teenager arriving in America, knowing nothing, I wanted a father who could explain the human journey. In college, when friends called home for advice, I would sink into deep depression for what I did not have.

Today, at twenty-seven, I have come to rediscover them in ways that my teenage mind would not allow—as adults and as friends with their own faults and weaknesses.

One night after my move back home, I overheard my father on the telephone. There was some trouble. Later, Dad shared the problem with me. Apparently my legal training had earned me some privileges in his eyes. I talked through the problem with Dad, analyzing the purposes of the people involved and offering several negotiation strategies(策略).He listened patiently before finally admitting, “I can’t think like that. I am a simple man.”

Dad is a brilliant scientist who can deconstruct the building blocks of nature. Yet human nature is a mystery to him. That night I realized that he was simply not skilled at dealing with people, much less the trouble of a conflicted teenager. It’s not in his nature to understand human desires.

And so, there it was—it was no one’s fault that my father held no interest in human lives while I placed great importance in them. We are at times born more sensitive, wide-eyed, and dreamy than our parents and become more curious and idealistic than them. Dad perhaps never expected me for a child. And I, who knew Dad as an intelligent man, had never understood that his intelligence did not cover all of my feelings.

It has saved me years of questioning and confusion. I now see my parents as people who have other relationships than just Father and Mother. I now overlook their many faults and weaknesses, which once annoyed me.

I now know my parents as friends: people who ask me for advice; people who need my support and understanding. And I’ve come to see my past clearer.
