【分析】
本题为英语短文填空题，需结合固定搭配、词性转换、名词单复数、介词用法等基础知识点解题。具体思路：先分析每个空的语法结构，再结合词汇的形式变化和固定搭配确定答案，如遇到修饰动词的词用副词、介词后接宾格代词、固定短语的搭配等。
【解析】
31. 考查固定搭配。be happy to do sth是固定用法，意为“很高兴做某事”，故填to hear。
32. 考查名词单复数。lots of后接可数名词复数，landscape是可数名词，此处需用复数形式，故填landscapes。
33. 考查人称代词宾格。介词of后需接人称代词宾格，they的宾格是them，故填them。
34. 考查词性转换。此处修饰名词part，需用形容词，center的形容词形式为central，故填central。
35. 考查固定搭配。be famous for是固定搭配，意为“因……而著名”，故填for。
36. 考查词性转换。此处修饰动词carved，需用副词，slow的副词形式为slowly，故填slowly。
37. 考查名词单复数。many后接可数名词复数，place的复数形式为places，故填places。
38. 考查连词。此处连接并列的名词weather和air，表并列关系，用连词and，故填and。
39. 考查非谓语动词。此处用不定式作后置定语，修饰place，a great place to do sth意为“做某事的好地方”，故填to get。
40. 考查固定搭配。look forward to是固定搭配，意为“期待”，故填forward。
