【解析】

试题分析：

【1】是可数名词，且第一次在文章中出现，故用不定冠词修饰，表示“一个”好孩子。

【2】不幸的是，情况并非如此。根据逗号的提示可知，此处应用所给词的副词形式，修饰整个句子，作状语。再根据句意可知，应用Unfortunately。

【3】my是形容词性物主代词，修饰名词，作定语，故用confidence。

【4】shut和句子主语I构成逻辑上的主谓关系，故用现在分词作状语。

【5】根据语境可知，此处应用连词after，表示“在……之后”。

【6】由句子的主语I和该空前的逗号可知，应用形容词depressed在句子中作状语。

【7】此处表示“最珍贵的时刻之一”，故用of。

【8】notice的动作发生在said之前，表示过去的过去，故用过去完成时。

【9】介词后跟名词、代词或动名词作宾语，且由空格前的“my hands”可知，此处用名词性物主代词hers, 表示她的手。

【10】who引导非限制性定语从句，在从句中作主语，修饰先行词the headmaster。
