解析：
1. 考查冠词。句意：作为徐霞客的故乡，江阴已成为国内外游客的现代化旅游目的地。名词hometown后有定语of Xu Xiake修饰，特指，用定冠词the限定。故填the。
2．考查介词。句意：作为徐霞客的故乡，江阴已成为国内外游客的现代化旅游目的地。at home and abroad和from home and abroad是固定搭配，意为“海内外；国内外 ”。故填at/from。
3．考查名词。句意：但古代冒险家徐霞客仍然是人们来这里的主要原因。分析句子可知，提示词在句中作主语，应用名词adventurer，结合单数谓语动词remains可知，主语为单数名词。故填adventurer。
4．考查动词时态语态和主谓一致。句意：至今，《徐霞客游记》已广为传阅。分析句子可知，read(阅读)是句中谓语动词，与主语the Travel Diary of Xu Xiake之间是被动关系，句中有时间状语So far，应使用现在完成时态，又因主语是专有名词，是单数概念，所以谓语动词也应使用单数形式。综上，谓语应用现在完成时的被动语态，单数形式。故填has been read。
5．考查非谓语动词。句意：徐霞客用了30多年的时间走遍了16个省份，详细描述了他的探索。spend...doing...为固定搭配，意为“用/花……做……”，用动名词作宾语。故填traveling/travelling。
6. 考查定语从句。句意：他的日记属于旅行文学的范畴，它不仅以旅行为主题，而且还以描写作者的经历而闻名。分析句子可知，空格处为非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词travel literature，指物，关系词代替先行词在定语从句中作主语，应使用关系代词which引导该定语从句。故填which。
7．考查名词。句意：他的日记属于旅行文学的范畴，它不仅以旅行为主题，而且还以描写作者的经历而闻名。根据句意和空格前名词所有格author's可知，空格处应用名词，结合句意，作者的“经历”是复数概念，用复数形式。故填experiences。
8．考查动词时态。句意：徐霞客有一个富有的父亲，他的父亲喜欢自然胜过权力，尤其是风景胜过官职。分析句子可知，prefer(更喜欢)是定语从句中谓语动词，与主语who(即a wealthy father)之间是主动关系，讲述过去的事情，应使用一般过去时态。故填preferred。
9．考查副词。句意：显然，他喜欢读有关中国山川的书。根据句意，提示词在句中作评注性状语，用副词obviously，意为“显然”，句首单词首字母大写。故填Obviously。
10. 考查连词。句意：这个小孩决定他要自己去看美丽的风景，他长大后终于实现了梦想。结合句意分析句子可知，空格前是两个并列分句，用并列连词and连接。故填and。

Ⅰ.阅读理解
When I was 9, we packed up our home in Los Angeles and arrived at Heathrow, London on a gray January morning.Everyone in the family settled quickly into the city except me.Without my beloved beaches and endless blue-sky days, I felt at a loss and out of place.Until I made a discovery.
Southbank, at an eastern bend in the Thames, is the center of British skateboarding, where the continuous crashing of skateboards left your head ringing.I loved it.I soon made friends with the local skaters.We spoke our own language.And my favorite: Safe.Safe meant cool.It meant hello.It meant don't worry about it.Once, when trying a certain trick on the beam(横杆), I fell onto the stones, damaging a nerve in my hand, and Toby came over, helping me up: Safe, man.Safe.A few minutes later, when I landed the trick, my friends beat their boards loud, shouting: “Safe! Safe! Safe！” And that's what mattered—landing tricks, being a good skater.
When I was 15, my family moved to Washington.I tried skateboarding there, but the locals were far less welcoming.Within a couple of years, I'd given it up.
When I returned to London in 2004, I found myself wandering down to Southbank, spending hours there.I've traveled back several times since, most recently this past spring.The day was cold but clear; tourists and Londoners stopped to watch the skaters.Weaving(穿梭) among the kids who rushed by on their boards, I found my way to the beam.Then a rail-thin teenager, in a baggy white T-shirt, skidded(滑) up to the beam.He sat next to me.He seemed not to notice the man next to him.But soon I caught a few of his glances.“I was a local here 20 years ago, ” I told him.Then, slowly, he began to nod his head.“Safe, man.Safe.”
“Yeah, ” I said.“Safe.”

7．考查名词。句意：他的日记属于旅行文学的范畴，它不仅以旅行为主题，而且还以描写作者的经历而闻名。根据句意和空格前名词所有格author's可知，空格处应用名词，结合句意，作者的“经历”是复数概念，用复数形式。故填experiences。
8．考查动词时态。句意：徐霞客有一个富有的父亲，他的父亲喜欢自然胜过权力，尤其是风景胜过官职。分析句子可知，prefer(更喜欢)是定语从句中谓语动词，与主语who(即a wealthy father)之间是主动关系，讲述过去的事情，应使用一般过去时态。故填preferred。
9．考查副词。句意：显然，他喜欢读有关中国山川的书。根据句意，提示词在句中作评注性状语，用副词obviously，意为“显然”，句首单词首字母大写。故填Obviously。
10. 考查连词。句意：这个小孩决定他要自己去看美丽的风景，他长大后终于实现了梦想。结合句意分析句子可知，空格前是两个并列分句，用并列连词and连接。故填and。
