If I have learned anything about giving thanks, it is to“give it now!” Saying thanks is such 【3】______ easy way to increase the world’s happiness.

Of course, there are times 【4】______ you can’t express gratitude immediately. In that case don’t let embarrassment sink you into 【5】_______ (silent) ----speak up the first time you have the chance.

Once a young minister, Mark Brian, 【6】______ (send) to a remote parish of Kwakiutl Indians in British Columbia. The Indians, he had been told, did not have a word for “thank you”.

【解析】

试题分析：考查动词名词冠词等的掌握情况

【1】for考查介词。wait for是固定搭配，所以用介词for。

【2】easily考查副词。副词修饰 overlooked，所以用 easily。

【3】an考查冠词。此处考查such a way。此处需要冠词，因为有形容词easy所以用an。

【4】when考查副词。此处缺少时间状语，所以用 when。

【5】silence考查名词。介词后面应该加名词，所以用 silence。

【6】was sent考查动词。此处是过去时的被动，所以用 was sent。

【7】saying考查动词。介词of后面应该是动名词，所以用 saying。

【8】if考查副词。此处是虚拟语气，所以用if。

【9】better考查比较级。 better是good的比较级形式，所以用 better。

【10】including考查动词。 including做并列的主语。
