【解析】

試題分析：這篇短文主要講述的是作者即將為母親的生日party作準(zhǔn)備的事情，以及對去年母親生日party的回顧和對本人生日的設(shè)想。

【1】從與前后的單詞的搭配來看應(yīng)填“某人的”，在方框中只有friend’s和mother‘s兩個；由下文的描述，特別是第三段的第一句，可知應(yīng)填：mother’s。

【2】因為要舉行party，自然就會邀請親朋好友。由前面的has可知要用現(xiàn)在完成時表示已經(jīng)邀請了，所以應(yīng)用invite的過去分詞invited。

【3】由“are”可知，用ask sb to do sth的被動式，表示“被要求做某事”，故應(yīng)用過去分詞asked。

【4】根據(jù)前后兩個句子的關(guān)系可知，這里存在因果關(guān)系，即因為晚飯要跳舞，所以把地毯撤掉了。結(jié)合所給詞匯可知應(yīng)填：because。

【5】首先應(yīng)判斷用動詞，又從后面的“the best plates and glasses”等可知應(yīng)是已經(jīng)“擺放”出來，故應(yīng)用put的過去分詞put.。

【6】根據(jù)語境可知句意為：我們打算跳舞到午夜。這里表示某種動作一直延續(xù)到某個時候。結(jié)合所給詞匯可知應(yīng)填：until。

【7】根據(jù)語境可知，這里指的是跳餓了，自然就會吃得更多。結(jié)合所給詞匯可知應(yīng)填：more。

【8】根據(jù)語境可知，這里指的是去年在飯店為媽媽舉行生日聚會。與party搭配用have，因為是去年的事情，所以用一般過去時had。

【9】根據(jù)語境可知，與形容詞pleasanter并列的也一定是形容詞，且為比較級，在方框中選出cheap和beautiful，根據(jù)常識應(yīng)用cheaper。

【10】根據(jù)語境可知，這里指的是在草地上跳舞。結(jié)合所給詞匯可知應(yīng)填：on。
