【解析】

试题分析：

1. 句意：外面首先要感激父母亲，因为他们不仅仅给我们提供食物和衣服而且还一直在关心我们。上下文之间存在着因果关系，所以使用because串联。

2. 句意：因为他们不仅仅给我们提供食物和衣服而且还一直在关心我们。固定搭配provide sb with sth提供某人某物。

3. 句意：他们总是愿意做他们能做的所有来确保我们的幸福。Whatever/what引导的是宾语从句，what在句中作为do的宾语，do承前省略了。

4. 句意：其次，我们还要感激努力给我们智慧和知识的老师。固定搭配make every efforts to do sth努力做某事。

5. 句意：我们还要感激努力给我们智慧和知识的老师。不可数名词knowledge作为动词give的宾语。

6. 句意：正如谚语所说：说比做更容易。后面的than说明这里要使用比较级形式。

7. 句意：我们应该努力学习以便于我们能达到他们的期望值。固定搭配devote oneself to sth/doing致力于做某事；

8. 句意：我们应该努力学习以便于我们能达到他们的期望。名词expectation作为动词短语live up to的宾语。

9. express 句意：表达我们的感激也很重要。动词express接宾语our gratitude构成动宾短语。

10. 句意：我们应该采取行动回报他们的爱和善良。固定搭配take action to do sth采取行动做某事。
