【解析】作者介紹中國學生英語口語差的三個原因。

【1】考查冠詞。此處為固定搭配：quite a few：相當多，不少。故填a。

【2】考查連詞。前后句子間是轉折關系：語法好，但是口語查。因為前一句有連詞though，不能用but，故用yet，也有但是的意思。

【3】考查連詞。前一句他們說口語差，但是他們的口語不必永遠差下去，轉折關系，逗號隔開，故填However。

【4】考查名詞單復數(shù)。Reason前有some修飾，表示一些，應用復數(shù)，故填reasons。

【5】考查形容詞。此處意為他們的英語口語，應說成：spoken English。故填spoken。

【6】考查代詞。他們無法找到合適的詞來表達他們自己，此處意為他們自己，用反身代詞，故填themselves。

【7】考查序數(shù)詞。前面已經(jīng)說了兩個原因了，故此處是第三個，用序數(shù)詞，third。

【8】考查時態(tài)語態(tài)。沒有用足夠的注意力來注意聽。Attention和pay之間是被動關系，因為有固定短語pay attention to，此外文章是用現(xiàn)在時來描述的，主語是單數(shù)，故填is paid。

【9】考查連詞。你就會忘記你所知道的東西。賓語從句，從句缺少賓語，意為東西，故填what。

【10】考查介詞。此處表示方式，通過的意思，通過更多的說英語，用介詞by。
