【分析】
这是一道短文填空题,需结合语法规则、固定搭配及上下文语境解题。具体思路:1. 第1空:主语Spring是第三人称单数,描述客观事实用一般现在时,动词需变第三人称单数形式;2. 第2空:like作介词时,后接动词要用动名词形式;3. 第3空:前文提到北极有两个季节,此处指代这两个季节,需用人称代词主格;4. 第4空:主语the sun是第三人称单数,描述客观现象用一般现在时,动词变第三人称单数;5. 第5空:此处表被动含义,需用被动语态结构(be+过去分词);6. 第6空:tent是可数名词,表泛指时用复数形式;7. 第7空:by表方式时,后接动词要用动名词;8. 第8空:前后句为转折关系,需用转折连词。
