【分析】
拿到这类选词填空题，首先第一步要通读整篇短文，明确文章核心主题是介绍新疆棉花的生产、加工全流程，理清整体语境以一般现在时和过去时结合为主。第二步先浏览给出的备选词汇，预判每个词可能的变形方向，比如动词的不定式、动名词、三单形式，形容词和副词的转换，基数词变序数词，人称代词变物主代词等。第三步逐个分析空格的句子结构，判断空格所需的词性、时态、固定搭配要求，从备选词里匹配对应词汇并做正确变形，注意每个词只能使用一次，全部填完后通读全文校验语句是否通顺、逻辑是否合理。
【解析】
1. 此处符合固定句型"It is + 形容词 + to do sth."，it作形式主语，需要用不定式作真正主语，因此动词短语think about变形为to think about。
2. 根据后文"it is also one of the best in the world"的提示，此处表达"中国最好的棉花在新疆"，定冠词the后要用形容词最高级，good的最高级为best。
3. 此处符合固定句型"It takes some time for sth. to do sth."，表示"某物花费多长时间做某事"，因此动词grow变形为to grow。
4. 时间状语"In the past"表示过去时态，主语it是单数，因此be动词的过去式用was。
5. 此处修饰句中的动作do the job，需要用副词作状语，形容词easy的副词形式为easily。
6. 主语It指代前文的长绒棉，句子描述事物的属性用一般现在时，感官动词feel要变为第三人称单数形式feels。
7. 介词for后面需要接动名词作宾语，因此动词短语make clothes变形为making clothes。
8. 此处表达"农民要做的第一件事"，定冠词the后要用序数词，基数词one的序数词形式为first。
9. 此处修饰后面的名词cotton，需要用形容词性物主代词，人称代词they变形为their。
10. 此处是固定搭配put...into...，表示"把……放进……"，因此填介词into。
【答案】
1. to think about 2. best 3. to grow 4. was 5. easily 6. feels 7. making clothes 8. first 9. their 10. into

【分析】
做完形填空首先要通读全文，理清文章整体脉络：本文围绕母亲节感恩的主题，讲述了作者往年给妈妈准备不同母亲节礼物，今年精心筹备专属手工礼物的暖心经历。解题时不要孤立看单个句子，优先定位前后文的提示线索，结合词义辨析、生活常识推导答案：遇到指代类空往前找前文出现的对应名词，遇到后文举例的空结合例子判断属性，遇到动作排序的空理清先后逻辑，遇到后文原词复现的空直接匹配，就能快速锁定正确选项。
【解析】
1. 第一空前文开篇就点明五月是充满阳光和鲜花的月份，本句说明五月也是我们在第二个周日（母亲节）表达谢意的时段，对应前文的month，day天、week周、year年均不符合语境，选D。
2. 第二空后文明确提示"the dishes I cooked that morning"，是早上做的饭菜，对应早餐breakfast，茶、午餐、晚餐均不符合时间提示，选A。
3. 本句说明作者用自己赚的钱买自拍杆，赚零花钱的方式是卖掉旧书，sell售卖符合逻辑，买、给、发送都不符合语境，选D。
4. 后文提到作者花了两周才敲定礼物方案，母亲节在五月，因此要提前在四月下旬就开始找礼物灵感，四月符合时间逻辑，五月、六月、七月时间都不对，选B。
5. 后文出现了Then（然后）的动作衔接，说明本处是动作的第一步，用First（首先），接下来、然后、最后都不符合动作先后排序逻辑，选C。
6. 文章末尾段明确出现原词提示"tried the sweets inside"，说明盒子里放的是糖果，薯条、派、咖啡豆都没有后文对应提示，选B。
7. 后文举例作者能帮妈妈做的家务是喂宠物、扫地，这些都是家庭里的小事，small小的符合描述，有趣的、困难的、危险的都不符合例子属性，选D。
8. 结合生活常识，作者要悄悄把礼物放在妈妈床上，应该是在妈妈睡着之后才进房间放置，after在……之后符合惊喜场景的逻辑，在……之前、当……时、直到都不符合设定，选C。
9. 前文设定是前一天晚上放的礼物，本句时间是第二天早上，对应妈妈醒来之后发现礼物，wake up醒来符合语境，查阅、长大、起立都不符合时间场景，选B。
10. 前文提示妈妈收到礼物非常兴奋，因此她是开心地仔细端详盒子的每一处细节，happily开心地符合情绪状态，快速地、幸运地、难过地都和前文的兴奋情绪不匹配，选D。
