【解析】本文是一篇社会类短文阅读。四月是美国国家志愿者月，文章主要介绍了美国学生从事志愿者活动。

【1】考查定语从句关系词。句中先行词为National Volunteer Month，在非限定性定语从句中作主语，故用关系词which。句意：四月是国家志愿者月，表彰并感谢那些有时间、有才能、有支持的志愿者。故填which。

【2】考查名词。根据前面的代词their和名词community是可数名词，故用其复数形式。句意：他们在社区的关心。故填communities。

【3】考查非谓语代词。这里考查短语feel concerned with感到忧虑。句意：人们倾向于做他们强烈关注的事情。故填concerned。

【4】考查副词。在句首用副词形式。句意：结果，在美国许多地方，经常考虑志愿服务。故填Consequently。

【5】考查时态及语态。句中主语vacations与plan之间为被动关系，故用被动语态；根据前后句时态可以判断用一般现在时。句意：当计划假期的时候。故填are planned。

【6】考查冠词。根据前后句可知，这里首次出现university student，故用不定冠词a。句意：Andrew Makhoul，一名大学生。故填a。

【7】考查非谓语动词。短语be located in坐落于，在句中作后置定语。句意：孤儿院坐落于瓜地马拉最贫穷最暴力的地区之一。故填located。

【8】考查介词。标题考查短语depend on依靠。句意：取决于志愿者保持开放。故填on。

【9】考查时态。根据前面的he knew可知，用过去将来时。句意：他知道他很快就会回来。故填would。

【10】考查代词。根据上下文及句意可知，用反身代词。句意：你会让自己充满希望。故填yourself。
