试题分析：本文是一篇议论文。文中论述了当人们遇到看起来不可能做的事情时应该怎样做呢？短文以治理长期被污染的河流为例，一开始看起来治理它很难，但是经过几个月甚至几年的时间终于变成清澈的小河了。同样地道理，对于我们大多数人一样，做些改变需要的是努力和耐心。 小题1:was.根据上文提到的事情使1969年的事情，所以这里应该用过去式。 小题2:actually.这里应该用副词来修饰动词caught，actual实际上，是形容词；actually实际上，是副词。 小题3:the.这里one of+可数名词的复数，表示……之一；the most outstanding 是最高级，来修饰examples；形容词的最高级与定冠词连用。 小题4:or.河流在几天或甚至几个月之后没有多大的改善。这里是两个时间短语表示选择关系，故用or. 小题5:to reduce.减少工业污染和变成干净的水需要几年的工作时间。这里是句式：It takes +some time +to do sth做某事花费某人多长时间，故这里应该用动词不定式，故用to reduce。 小题6:cleaner. 现在河里的水比以前更清了。根据后面的比较连词than可知这里应该用比较级，故用cleaner. 小题7:that/which.也许你有一个能使你的家人发疯的习惯。这里habit是先行词，which或that引导的是定语从句，并且在从句中作主语，不能省略，故用that/which. 小题8:amazing.这里空格处应该用形容词，来修饰后面的名词，amazing指令人吃惊的；amazed指人感到吃惊的。这里不是用来修饰人的，故用amazing。 小题9:changes.对于我们大多数人来说，变化是逐渐的，需要很多努力和工作。因为这里缺少的是句子的主语，根据谓语动词are可知主语应该是复数，故用changes。 小题10:patient.需要的是耐心。patience“耐心”是名词；因为空格前有系动词be，所以这里应该用形容词patient。
