【10】Though

【解析】

试题分析：这是一篇哲理性的文章，讲述了“我”在上初中时时常陷入沮丧，在告诉家人朋友自己沮丧的原因后，他们支持并鼓励我。没有人能独自面对沮丧，和其他人一起分担，生活才会重新变得充满欢笑和希望。

【1】feeling。feel:及物动词，感觉。固定搭配start doing sth. feel变为feeling。句意：我知道的就是我开始感到无助和没有价值。故填feeling。

【2】failures。failures：可数名词，失败的事。句意：我躲在我的房间里，盯着窗外，想着我的失败的事情。故填Failures.

【3】alive。alive: 形容词，活着的，有生气的。句意：我甚至怀疑活着是否还有价值。故填alive。

【4】times。at times：有时；偶尔。句意：这种悲观的想法有时渐渐逝去，它总是会被想起。故填times。

【5】over。get over:克服；恢复；熬过。句意：正是我的父母和朋友帮助我克服了这种悲观的想法。故填over。

【6】embarrassed。embarrassed：感到尴尬的。embarrassing:令人尴尬的。句意：刚开始当我沮丧时，我觉得告诉别人很尴尬。故填embarrassed。

【7】contrary。on the contrary:相反的。由上文可知朋友们没有嘲笑“我”。句意：相反，他们支持并且鼓励我。故填contrary。

【8】alone。alone:副词，单独地；独自地。有朋友的支持帮助和独自一人面对困难形成对比。句意：记住没人能独自一人面对沮丧。故填alone。

【9】seeing。see:及物动词，看见。See a doctor看医生。Seeing a doctor 由see的现在分词构成的名词性短语。故填seeing。

【10】Though。Though：连词，虽然；尽管，表转折。句意：尽管沮丧给全世界的人们都带来了影响，但有效的治疗方式给人们的生活重新带来希望和欢笑。
