任务一：本题考查九年级词形转换相关知识点，结合固定搭配、句子语法规则逐一变形：
1. 考查固定搭配be different from（与……不同），需将名词difference转换为形容词different。
2. 考查固定结构instead of doing sth.，and并列两个动名词作of的宾语，因此将nod变为动名词nodding。
3. 考查主系表结构，be动词后需接形容词作表语，将动词accept转换为形容词acceptable（可接受的）。
4. 结合句意可知把胳膊肘放在桌上、嘴里塞满食物说话是不礼貌的，需将polite变为带否定前缀的反义词impolite。
5. 动名词作主语时谓语动词用第三人称单数形式，句子为一般现在时，因此show变为shows。
6. 考查固定搭配be connected with（与……相关），主语为复数they，时态为一般现在时，因此填are connected。
7. 考查不定式作目的状语，此处表示立刻打开礼物的目的是表达感谢，因此填to show。
8. 考查固定句型It's + 形容词 + to do sth.（做某事是……的），因此填to ask。
9. 冠词an后需接名词，将动词apologize转换为名词apology。
