【分析】
这是一道英语语法填空题，需结合短文语境、句子时态、词性变化、固定搭配、连词用法等知识逐一分析空白处。解题时先通读短文理解大意，再针对每个空：1. 考查一般现在时的否定形式；2. 考查现在进行时的结构；3. 考查可数名词的复数变化；4. 考查人称代词的宾格形式；5. 考查一般过去时的时态运用；6. 考查转折连词的选择；7. 考查否定句中不定代词的用法；8. 考查固定搭配；9. 考查原因状语从句的引导词；10. 考查介词的语境运用。
【解析】
1. 主语people是复数，一般现在时的否定需借助助动词don't，故填don't；
2. 此处为现在进行时，结构是“be+现在分词”，become的现在分词为becoming，故填becoming；
3. dish是可数名词，此处表泛指“菜肴”，需用复数形式dishes，故填dishes；
4. 介词of后需接人称代词宾格，they的宾格是them，故填them；

6. 前后句为转折关系，需用转折连词but，故填but；
7. 否定句中需用any代替some，故填any；
8. 固定搭配out of表示“由……制成”，故填of；
9. 此处表原因，需用原因状语从句引导词because，故填because；
