【解析】

试题分析：本文主要给我们介绍了一项冒险运动freeflying，它的具体实施步骤、与传统运动的区别及此项运动的特点。

【1】an考查冠词。以……速度用“at a/an…speed”，空白后是awesome，开头是元音音标，用an,故填an.

【2】so考查固定句型。句意：你落下得如此快，以至于转头可以使你的身体转向别的方向。后面有that，故填so.

【3】in考查介词短语。in a different direction“以不同的方向”，故填in.

【4】is based考查被动结构。句意：自由飞翔运动是以较传统的空中潜水为基础的。be based on“以……为基础”，主语是单数，故填is based.

【5】both考查代词。此处指Freeflying和skydiving两项运动，表示“两者都”用both，故填both.

【6】as考查介词。as the name suggests译为：正如它的名字所暗示，这是as的一种常见用法，故填as.

【7】travel(l)ing考查动词。此处为mean doing用法，表示“意味着做某事”，句意：这意味着旅行既要快又要稳。故填travel(l)ing.

【8】slightest考查最高级。句意：即使最轻微地动作对你的方向也有很大的影响。空白前有the,空白后是名词，故用形容词的最高级形式，故填slightest.

【9】Actually考查副词。此处在句首单独用，并且做状语，要用副词形式。句意：事实上，他们的降落伞只是传统skydiving降落伞的四分之一大小。故填Actually.

【10】that考查强调句。强调句的基本结构是：it is/was+被强调部分+that+其他。句意：只是在近几年，freeflying才得到公众的认可。故填that.
