解答语法填空需先通读短文理解主旨，再结合每个空的前后语境、语法规则、固定搭配等逐一分析：16题需根据时间状语确定时态；17题考查冠词的泛指用法；18题涉及固定搭配；19题是固定短语的代词形式；20题需考虑名词复数；21题考查介词的伴随用法；22题分析宾语从句的引导词；23题区分修饰物的形容词形式；24题用副词修饰动词；25题判断前后句的逻辑关系选连词。
【解析】
16. 考查时态。时间状语"Recently"可用于一般过去时或现在完成时，故填started/have started；
17. 考查冠词。"fan"是可数名词单数，表泛指，"great"以辅音音素开头，故填a；
18. 考查固定搭配。"decide to do sth"是固定用法，意为“决定做某事”，故填to try；
19. 考查代词。固定短语"to one's surprise"中用形容词性物主代词，此处指代Mo Zai，故填her；
20. 考查名词复数。"toy"是可数名词，与后面的"sweaters"并列，需用复数形式，故填toys；
21. 考查介词。此处表伴随，意为“拥有（粉丝）”，故填with；
22. 考查宾语从句引导词。从句中缺宾语，指代“钩织中最喜欢的事物”，故填what；
23. 考查形容词。修饰事物"crocheting"，用-ing形式的形容词，故填amazing；
24. 考查副词。修饰动词"focus"，需用副词，故填completely；
25. 考查连词。前后句为转折关系，故填But。
