【分析】
本题为语法填空题，需结合句子结构、时态语态、固定搭配及词类转换规则，填写括号内单词的适当形式。具体思路如下：
1. 考查“one of + the + 形容词最高级”结构，表“最……之一”，故popular变最高级most popular；
2. 考查被动语态，主语it指代cuju，与call是被动关系，需用“be + 过去分词”结构，故填called；
3. skin此处指“兽皮”，为可数名词，表泛指时用复数形式skins；
4. by是介词，后接动名词作宾语，故kick变kicking；
5. 描述古代发生的动作，用一般过去时，appear的过去式为appeared；
6. 固定搭配“a way to do sth”，不定式作定语，故填to exercise；
7. help后可接动词原形或不定式，两种形式均正确，故填train/to train；
8. different后接名词复数，type的复数为types；
9. for是介词，后接动名词，have变having；
10. 固定搭配try to do sth，表“尽力做某事”，故填to score。
【解析】
1. 根据“one of + the + 形容词最高级”结构，popular的最高级是most popular，故填most popular；
2. 主语it与call是被动关系，一般过去时的被动语态结构为“was + 过去分词”，call的过去分词是called，故填called；
3. skin为可数名词，此处表泛指，需用复数形式skins，故填skins；
4. by是介词，介词后接动词时用动名词形式，kick的动名词是kicking，故填kicking；
5. 描述古代的动作，应用一般过去时，appear的过去式是appeared，故填appeared；
6. 固定搭配“a way to do sth”表示“做某事的方法”，需用不定式作定语，故填to exercise；
7. help后可接动词原形或不定式，两种形式均符合语法，故填train/to train；
8. different后接可数名词复数，type的复数是types，故填types；
9. for是介词，介词后接动词时用动名词形式，have的动名词是having，故填having；
10. 固定搭配try to do sth表示“尽力做某事”，需用不定式作宾语，故填to score。
