【分析】
这是一道短文选词填空题，需先通读短文理解大意，再结合每个空格的词性、时态、固定搭配及语法规则，从方框内的词汇中选择合适的词并变形。具体思路：1. 明确短文时态为一般过去时，多数动词需用过去式；2. 掌握固定搭配（如enjoy doing sth、have a good time等）；3. 注意词性转换（如形容词变副词、名词变复数）；4. 结合语境判断词义，如one of后接名词复数，副词修饰句子等。
【解析】
1. 空格处需填动词作谓语，时态为一般过去时，方框中“visit”意为“拜访”，过去式为visited，符合“拜访家乡”的语境，故填visited。
2. “one of + 形容词最高级 + 名词复数”是固定结构，方框中“place”的复数形式为places，故填places。
3. 空格处需副词修饰整个句子，方框中“real”的副词形式为really，意为“确实”，符合语境，故填really。
4. “stay at + 地点”是固定搭配，时态为一般过去时，“stay”的过去式为stayed，故填stayed。
5. “cook breakfast”意为“做早餐”，时态为一般过去时，“cook”的过去式为cooked，故填cooked。
6. “enjoy doing sth”是固定搭配，意为“喜欢做某事”，“spend time”意为“花费时间”，故填spending。
7. 空格处需副词表示“也”，方框中“also”符合语境，故填also。
8. 空格处需形容词与exciting并列，方框中“interesting”意为“有趣的”，符合语境，故填interesting。
9. “take pictures”是固定搭配，意为“拍照”，时态为一般过去时，“take”的过去式为took，故填took。
10. “have a good time”是固定搭配，意为“玩得开心”，时态为一般过去时，“have”的过去式为had，故填had。
【答案】
1. visited 2. places 3. really 4. stayed 5. cooked 6. spending 7. also 8. interesting 9. took 10. had
