解析：

答案：have,between,week's,families,popular,cook,both,lots,food,on 　　解析：本文是一篇说明文，介绍了近年来流行于西方的一种新的进餐方式：晚早餐或早中餐，即brunch．要理解brunch，考生要有一定的构词知识。brunch是一个拼缀词，是取breakfast的头两个字母br和lunch的后四个字母unch拼合而成，是介于早餐与中餐之间的一顿饭。空(1)和空(6)考查了动宾搭配，即have和cook分别与brunch构成“吃饭”和“做饭”的动宾搭配。可见，短文填空中，动词与其他词的搭配，其中包括与名词构成的主谓搭配和动宾搭配，以及与副词和介词构成的固定搭配，是一个重要考点。解题时一定要透彻理解，前后照应，合理推论。此外，扎实的语言基本功能使解题事半功倍。空(2)所在的句子交代了吃“晚早餐或早中餐”的时间是在10 am和2 pm之间，而且between…and是固定搭配，故填between．空(3)填week's．大意是一个星期的劳累才换来星期天的一顿Brunch．时间名词week的所有格是week's．空(4)填families．从前文with their parents，children以及空白所在的句子的含意可知，此空应填“家庭”。空(5)填popular．brunch流行于各大饭店。空(6)填cook．空后的it代指前文的brunch，能与某一顿饭搭配的动词可以是have，eat和cook．再从下文所说的准备多种菜可知填cook．空(7)填both．前文已说明，brunch既是breakfast也是lunch，故用both．空(8)填lots．lots of是固定搭配。空(9)填food．下文所列举的都是食品。空(10)填on．and so on，“等等”，固定搭配。
