【分析】
本题为英语综合填空题，解题思路为：首先通读全文，理解渐冻症双胞胎姐妹创办图书馆的故事背景；接着逐个分析每个空格的句子结构、所需词性、上下文逻辑或固定搭配，结合语法规则确定答案。例如，第1空需填介词修饰季节，第2空需填名词作形容词rare的宾语，第3空需填转折连词连接前后内容，以此类推，确保答案符合语境与语法要求。
【解析】
1. 表示“在某个季节”需用介词in，late spring（晚春）是季节，故填in。
2. rare为形容词，需修饰名词，ill的名词形式是illness（疾病），故填illness。
3. 前文提到双胞胎仅在学校待了两年，后文说她们未放弃，前后为转折关系且有逗号隔开，故填However。
4. 句中出现than，需用形容词比较级；important是多音节形容词，比较级为more important，故填more important。
5. 根据句意“改装车后，长途旅行时能躺下睡觉”，需用After（在……之后）引导时间状语，故填After。
6. about是介词，介词后接动词需用动名词形式，open的动名词是opening，故填opening。
7. 固定搭配turn...into...意为“把……变成……”，此处指把客厅变成迷你图书馆，故填into。
8. when引导的时间状语从句省略了主语we和be动词are，需用现在分词facing，构成“when facing...”（当面对……时），故填facing。
9. 句意是“就像健康人一样”，表示“像”用介词like，故填like。
10. rich为形容词，需修饰名词；feel的名词是feeling，此处表示多种情感，用复数形式feelings，故填feelings。
【答案】
1. in 2. illness 3. However 4. more important 5. After 6. opening 7. into 8. facing 9. like 10. feelings
