【5】 have left

【解析】

文章大意：本文是一篇幽默故事。兩位應(yīng)邀的演講者來演講，在第一位講完后，巨大的房間里只剩下了一個人，當他向這個人表示感謝時，才知道這唯一的聽眾就是第二位演講者。

【1】句意：那天，兩位演講者被邀請去發(fā)表演講。根據(jù)下文The first speaker's speech was very hard to__2__.可知此處句意為“那天，兩位演講者被邀請去發(fā)表演講�！薄把葜v者”speaker，前面有數(shù)詞two，所以在此處應(yīng)用其復(fù)數(shù)形式speakers；故答案填speakers。

【2】句意：第一位演講者的講話很難理解。根據(jù)下文But as time went on the speech became very boring,可知，第一位演講者的講話內(nèi)容很無聊，推測可能是其演講的內(nèi)容非常難理解；understand意為“理解、明白”，動詞不定式中用動詞原形；故答案填understand。

【3】句意：但是隨著時間的推移，演講變得很無聊，人們開始睡覺了。根據(jù)But as time went on the speech became very boring,可知此處句意為“人們開始睡覺了。”fall asleep意為“入睡、睡覺”，為固定搭配；故答案填asleep。

【4】句意：最后，當他演講完時，只剩下一個人仍然坐在巨大的房間里。根據(jù)Finally when he finished it, there was only one man __4__ sitting in the large room.可知句意為“最后，當他演講完時，只剩下一個人仍然坐在巨大的房間里�！薄叭匀弧�still，故答案填still。

【5】句意：非常感謝你，在其他人都離開了之后你仍然把我的演講聽完。leave“離開”，由語境可知“離開”的動作發(fā)生在演講結(jié)束之前，所以此處應(yīng)用現(xiàn)在完成時態(tài)，主語是all the others，助動詞用have，leave的過去分詞是left；故答案填have left。
