【分析】
本题为英语词汇适当形式填空题，需结合句子成分、时态、固定搭配等分析：
1. 空格修饰动词goes，需用副词，故将形容词slow变为副词slowly；
2. 句中时间状语last week表过去，谓语动词用一般过去式，故happen变为happened；
3. 后句主语they指代空格处名词，需用复数形式，故painting变为paintings；
4. 空格修饰名词area，需用形容词，故将名词centre变为形容词central；
5. 考查固定搭配rush to do sth，此处用动词不定式，故填to watch。
【解析】
1. 修饰动词需用副词，slow的副词形式为slowly，故填slowly；
2. 由时间状语last week可知，句子为一般过去时，happen的过去式是happened，故填happened；
3. 后句主语为they，指代空格处的名词，需用复数，painting的复数是paintings，故填paintings；
4. 修饰名词需用形容词，centre的形容词形式为central，故填central；
5. 固定搭配rush to do sth表示“匆忙做某事”，此处用动词不定式to watch，故填to watch。
【答案】
1. slowly
2. happened
3. paintings
4. central
5. to watch
