解析:
(1) 根据时间状语It's 6:00 p.m. on Friday.和上下文可知,此处用现在进行时,The Greens表示格林一家,为复数,故填are talking。
(2) different后接可数名词复数,place的复数为places。
(3) 此处修饰名词home,用形容词性物主代词his。
(4) 根据上下文,此处表示转折,且空后无逗号,用but,位于句首首字母大写。
(5) 修饰动词way用副词slowly。
(6) 根据last year可知时态为一般过去时,go的过去式为went。
(7) take...with...为固定搭配,意为“随身携带……”。
(8) It's+adj.+to do sth.为固定句型,意为“做某事是……的”,所以填to make。
(9) 询问天气用What is the weather like?,位于句首首字母大写。
(10) think about doing sth.为固定搭配,意为“考虑做某事”,所以填taking。
