【解析】

文章大意：本文讲我们可以通过送花来表达对母亲的爱，并就如何送花提出了自己的几点建议。

【1】根据表格第二行对应内容“▲Flowers stand for love and care. ▲Flowers __2__ the personality of a mother.”可知此处是说鲜花的意义，提到了两种意义，用meaning的复数形式。故答案为Meanings。

【2】根据第1段中“They can show the unique personality of a mother.”可知鲜花可以展现一位母亲的个性。故答案为show。

【3】根据第2段中“So, to show your love for your mother, you can give beautiful flowers to her on this big day.”可知上文提到的都是送花的原因。故答案为Reasons。

【4】根据第2段中“A mother is a woman that has endless love for her children, and the love is selfless.”可知母爱是无限而又无私的。填endless。故答案为endless。

【5】根据第2段中“She is one of the most important people in your life.”可知母亲是我们生命中最重要的人之一，对我们来说极其重要，great后接important的名词形式。故答案为importance。

【6】根据2段中“you can give beautiful flowers to her on this big day”及最后一段中“you want to send her some flowers”可知此处用send或give都行，再结合题目结构可知要用动名词短语做主语。故答案为Giving/Sending。

【7】根据第3段中“You can easily find lots of different types of flowers in many different colors.”可知题目与原文调换了主语，题目为被动语态，用“be + 过去分词”。故答案为found。

【8】根据第3段中“The best choice for a mother is carnations (康乃馨), especially the red, yellow and pink ones.”可知红色、黄色和粉色康乃馨是最好的选择。故答案为choice。

【9】根据第3段中“You don’t need to give her roses on Mother’s Day.”可知是应该避免送玫瑰，should后用动词原形。故答案为avoid。

【10】根据最后一段中“In addition, if your mother is not near you and you want to send her some flowers, then you can use an online service.”可知这是与母亲离得不近时的选择，不近即远，用形容词far。故答案为far。
