【答案】

Today I visited the Smiths — my first visit to American family. They live in a small town. It was very kind them to meet me at the railway station and me to their home. The Smiths did their best to make me feel at home. They offered coffee and other drinks. We a good time talking laughing together. They happy to know everything about China and asked me lots of . In fact, they are planning to visit China next year.

【解析】

第一处：a→an 考查冠词。American首字母发元音，故使用不定冠词an。

第二处：quietly→quiet 考查形容词。修饰名词town需要用形容词。

第三处：for→of 考查固定句型。在句型It is/was+adj.+for/of sb. to do sth.中当遇到描述人的形容词（kind, nice, stupid, foolish, clever）时，介词用of；当遇到描述事的形容词（hard, difficult, impossible, necessary）时，介词用for。

第四处：drove→drive 考查平行结构。drive和前面的meet并列，必须用动词原形。

第五处：myself→me 考查代词。此处作动词offer的宾语，表示＂我＂，而不是＂我自己＂。

第六处：have→had 考查时态。因为全文在讲述当天发生的事，故用一般过去时。

第七处：or→and 考查连词。此处表示肯定句中的并列，用and来连接两个句子。

第八处：happy前加were 考查谓语动词。be happy to do sth.＂乐意做某事＂为固定词组。

第九处：question→questions 考查名词复数。lots of修饰名词复数形式。

第十处：去掉next前面的in 考查习惯搭配。next year, next Monday, next week等短语前面均不用介词in。
