【解析】

试题分析：人活着要有梦想并且为梦想去努力，要滋养保护梦想不让它灭亡。

【1】had succeeded.考查时态。此处是定语从句，先行词是businessman，who引导的是定语从句缺少谓语动词，根据句意用过去完成时，故填had succeeded.

【2】what.考查代词。此处指想象我想做的事，引导宾语从句根据句意用what，故填what.

【3】the.考查冠词。in the night“在夜里”是固定短语，故填the.

【4】awoke.考查时态。此处是when引导的时间状语从句句中缺少谓语，根据句意用过去时，故填awake 的过去式awoke.

【5】achieving.考查非谓语动词。句中to是介词后面加动词的-ing形式，此处指在实现我想要的路上，故填achieving.

【6】while/but.考查连词。句意：一些人让他们的梦想灭亡，然而其他人使梦想滋养和得到保护。前后句表对比，故填while/but.

【7】through.考查介词。此处指在不好的境遇时滋养梦想直到度过困难，根据句意填through.

【8】those.考查代词。此处指光明总是伴随那些真诚希望他们的梦想实现的人们，who sincerely hope that their dreams will come true.是定语从句指人，要用复数。空白处缺少先行词，故填代词those.

【9】impossible.考查形容词。句意：不要让任何人偷走你的梦想，或者告诉自己梦想是不可能的。根据句意填“不可能的”impossible.

【10】prayers/prayer.考查名词。句意：唱自己的歌，做自己的梦，祈祷自己的幸福。三个句子保持一致，故填名词prayers/prayer.
