【解析】

本文是一篇记叙文。余光中是一个诗人，以诗《乡愁》而闻名。《乡愁》这首诗是描述对故乡的思念之情，出版于1971年，深受中国人和海外华裔的喜爱。余光中也是一位优秀的翻译家。

【1】句意：他是一位以在诗中描述乡愁而闻名的诗人。

此空前面he是主语，后接谓语动词，describe动词，意为“描述”，由前面的was，但从句描绘的是客观事实，所以用一般现在时。故填describes。

【2】句意：现在该我们表达我们对这位伟大的作家的思念了。

It’s time for sb. to do sth.意为“该到做某事的时间了。”根据句意和首字母，time符合题意。故填time。

【3】句意：余光中1928年生于江苏南京，在20世纪50年代，和家人一起移居台湾。

Yu and his family是句子的主语，move是动词，意为“移动”，根据时间状语可知句子使用一般过去时。故填moved。

【4】句意：直到他去世，他在那儿一直居住工作。

until是连词，意为“直到”，根据句意until符合题意。故填until。

【5】句意：《乡愁》是余先生的代表作，在这首诗里，他表达了当他在台湾的时候对大陆的思念之情。

由句子可知，“in______5______he expresses his homesickness for the Chinese mainland (大陆) when he was in Taiwan.”是masterpiece的后置定语，此空需要填一个定语从句的关系代词，指代先行词masterpiece。指物且放在介词后，只能用which。故填which。

【6】句意：这首诗在1971年出版，一直很受世界范围内中国演讲者的喜欢。

among是介词，意为“在……之间”。根据句意和音标提示可知among后接人，表示“在某人中”。故填among。

【7】句意：除了他在诗歌上的成就，余光中也是一位优秀的散文作家，评论家和翻译家。

besides可作介词，意为“除此之外（还有）”，根据句意，此处表示余光中除了是诗人，也是作家，评论家和翻译家。故填Besides。

【8】句意：它被认为是精准有力的翻译。

regard是动词，意为“当作”，it 指代的是前文中提到余光中翻译的诗，在句子中作主语，与regard之间是被动关系。故填regard。

【9】句意：我直到现在坚持写作的原因源于我对汉语语言的热情。

stick to 是动词短语，意为“坚持”to是介词，后可接动名词作宾语。根据句意，这里表示“坚持写作”。故填writing。

【10】句意：我直到现在坚持写作的原因源于我对汉语语言的热情。

Chinese language意为“汉语语言”，根据汉语提示及句意，表示一种语言，用名词单数。故填language。
