【解析】

【试题分析】

1.who去掉，或who后加was 这里可以构造完整的定语从句，即who后加was，或者用过去分词作后置定语，即who去掉。句意：一位名叫Kumar的年轻印第安人在会议后去Sabrina Hotel吃饭。

2.that→when 考查固定结构。be about to …when正要做某事突然……。句意：他正要吃东西时，发现窗外四只眼睛盯着他。

3.stared→staring 考查非谓语动词。stare与其逻辑主语four eyes是主动关系，故用现在分词作宾补。

4.live→lived 句意：那是两个靠捡破烂为生的小孩。根据语境可知，整件事发生在过去，要去一般过去时，故把live改为lived。

5.out→in 句意：Kumar立刻邀请他们进去。invited them in邀请他们进去。

6.his→their 上文提到是两个小孩，故了解了他们的状况以后，Kumar为他们点了和自己一样的食物。故把his改为their。

7.satisfied→satisfaction 句意：兄妹俩狼吞虎咽的吃完食物，满意的离开了。介词with后接名词，故把satisfied改为satisfaction。

8.tear→tears 句意：当Kuma付账时，他几乎要流眼泪了。此题考查固定短语burst into tears，意为“突然大哭”。故把tear改为tears。

9.ate→eaten 句意：因为账单上没有他们所吃食物的价格。根据前面的had，判断这里用过去完成时，eat应用其过去分词eaten，ate是eat的过去式。故把ate改为eaten。

10.all和best之间加the 最高级前面要加定冠词the。句意：献上最美好的祝愿！故在all和best之间加the。

考点：考查对文章的理解和语法知识。
