【分析】
本题考查词汇运用，需结合语境、固定搭配、词性变化及句子逻辑关系选择合适的词并调整形式。解题思路：1. 第一空根据固定搭配“sore throat”（喉咙痛）确定名词；2. 第二空分析前后句为让步关系，选引导让步状语从句的连词；3. 第三空根据“try to do sth”及“avoid doing sth”的固定搭配选动词原形；4. 第四空修饰动词需用副词；5. 第五空根据固定搭配“be proud of”确定形容词。
【解析】
1. “sore”是形容词，后接名词构成固定短语“sore throat”（喉咙痛），故填throat；
2. 前后句为让步关系，“Even though”（即使）引导让步状语从句，符合语境，故填Even though；
3. “try to do sth”（尽力做某事），“avoid doing sth”（避免做某事），此处需动词原形，故填avoid；
4. 此处修饰动词“changed”，需用副词，“differently”（不同地）符合，故填differently；
5. 固定搭配“be proud of”（以……为傲），故填proud。
