$Ten years ago, Nancy lived in a small house with her family. As \underline{ 6 } 8-year-old girl, she thought their house was too small for so many people: grandparents, parents and \underline{ 7 } (she) little brother John. So one day when Dad said they were moving to a big house, Nancy was so \underline{ 8 } (excite) and happy.$
Nancy and John waited and waited and at last, the big day came for them to move in!
$\underline{ 9 } a sunny morning, their parents went shopping and bought a large bed, a new sofa and some other things.$
$Now Nancy lives in her new house. It's in the countryside! Besides, there aren't any shops or \underline{ 10 } (restaurant). She spends two hours \underline{ 11 } (get) to school. \underline{ 12 } she wants to go to the beach, that will be four or five hours. But she still likes the house. It's new and quiet with little traffic. Living in the countryside \underline{ 13 } (make) them feel relaxed and they live happily.$
$There is a new neighbour Lily next to her. They are at the same school. They are both interested in playing badminton and play it \underline{ 14 } (good). They think it is a good way to keep \underline{ 15 } (health).$

解析：
【分析】
这是一篇语篇型语法填空题，解题时首先要通读全文，理清短文讲述的Nancy搬家到乡下生活的整体语境，再将题目分为两类推导：第一类是给出提示词的空，需要结合句子成分、固定搭配、主谓一致等规则，将提示词转换为正确形式；第二类是没有给出提示词的空，需要结合泛指、介词搭配、从句引导词等语法规则，填入符合语义的1个单词，逐空验证语义和语法的合理性即可得出答案。
【解析】
6. 空后8-year-old是以元音音素开头的复合形容词，修饰可数名词单数girl，此处表达泛指“一名8岁的女孩”，符合不定冠词an的使用规则，故填an。
7. 空格后是名词短语little brother，需要形容词性物主代词作定语修饰名词，指代Nancy的弟弟，主格she对应的形容词性物主代词为her，故填her。
8. 空格作表语，用于描述人Nancy的主观感受，表达“感到兴奋的”，动词excite的修饰人的形容词形式为excited，故填excited。
9. 空格后是具体到某一天的早晨a sunny morning，这类具体的早中晚前要搭配介词on，且位于句首首字母大写，故填On。
10. 空前的any和并列的可数名词复数shops提示，可数名词restaurant要变为复数形式，故填restaurants。
11. 此处符合固定结构spend time (in) doing sth. （花费时间做某事），动词get要变为动名词形式，故填getting。
12. 该句引导条件状语从句，句意为“如果她想要去海滩，那要花四五个小时”，用条件连词If引导，句首首字母大写，故填If。
13. 本句的主语是动名词短语Living in the countryside，动名词作主语时谓语动词要用单数形式，全文为一般现在时，故make变为第三人称单数形式makes，故填makes。
14. 空格修饰动词play，需要用副词作状语，形容词good对应的副词形式为well，故填well。
15. 此处符合固定搭配keep healthy（保持健康），系动词keep后接形容词作表语，名词health要变为形容词healthy，故填healthy。
【答案】
6. an 7. her 8. excited 9. On 10. restaurants 11. getting 12. If 13. makes 14. well 15. healthy
