【解析】

这是一篇夹叙夹议类文章。文章通过讲述Day先生去雅典旅游的故事，说明了去外国旅游时，语言的不通可能会造成许多问题。

1.考查定语从句。____1____ we are visiting.作定语，修饰the country，所以____1____ we are visiting.是一个定语从句，关系词在从句中作宾语，指物，所以填which / that.

2.考查冠词。句意：在一个陌生的国家，我们可能不知道去哪儿吃东西，或者在饭馆儿里点什么菜。题干中泛指“一个陌生的国家”，strange的首字母发音是辅音，所以填不定冠词a。

3.考查常用结构。how to do sth如何做某事，这是一个常用结构，所以填to ask。

4.考查形容词。句意：拥有这样的经历并不开心。is之后，应该用形容词作表语，所以填unhappy。

5.考查时态。由and he spoke French and German quite well.判断出是描述过去发生的事情，用一般过去时，所以填went。

6.考查连词。句意：我将要去雅典度假，但是我不会讲希腊语。表示转折关系，所以填but。

7.考查名词单复数。句意：所以，在我去之前的一个月，我将要去夜校上希腊语课。“希腊语课”是复数，用名词复数，所以填lessons。

8.考查常用词组。题干中意思是“几周以后，他回来了。” 几周以后，应该说a few weeks later，所以填later。

9.考查固定短语。句意：当你在雅典的时候，你在希腊语方面有困难吗？have trouble in 在…方面有困难，该短语是一个固定短语，所以填in。

10.考查代词。句意：当你在雅典的时候，你在希腊语方面有困难吗？题干中是“当你在雅典的时候”，所以填you。
