【2】into

【3】ran

【4】which

【5】confused

【6】to cross

【7】knowing

【8】a

【9】deep

【10】difficulties

【解析】本文是小马过河的故事，告诉我们“凡事要亲自体验，而不是道听途说”。

【1】副词修饰动词，故填happily。

【2】固定搭配：make…into…，把……制成……。故填into。

【3】句意：小马毫不犹豫地同意了，驮着麦子袋从家里跑走了。此处是并列谓语，用一般过去时态，故填ran。

【4】此处a river是先行词，指物，在后面的非限制性定语从句中作主语，故填which。

【5】句意：他突然感到困惑。get+过去分词，表示“变得……”，是固定结构，故填confused。

【6】句意：当小马正要穿过小河的时候……。be about to do sth.正要做某事，故填to cross。

【7】此处是现在分词作原因状语，表示主动关系，故填knowing。

【8】句意：你必须自己尝试一下。此处try尝试（名词），give sth. a try“给……一次尝试”，故填a。

【9】句意：水既不深，也不浅。形容词作表语，故填deep。

【10】句意：他还学会了要亲自实践而不是只听别人说来克服困难的方法。此处difficulty表示“困难的事”，是可数名词，要用复数，故填difficulties。
