解析试题分析：
【小题1】句意：他一到，就把自行车象往常一样停靠在后门：on one’s  arrival 是固定短语，应使用名词形式。
【小题2】as usual 像往常一样，固定短语。
【小题3】非限制性定语从句，故用which。句意：干了10个小时的活后，他回来发现自行车没有了，这是我们唯一的交通工具。
【小题4】句意：自行车也被用来买东西：be used to do sth. 被用来干某事。
【小题5】考查so…that…句型：我是如此难过以至于写信给报纸。
【小题6】有个陌生人甚至买了个新的自行车打电话让我丈夫去取它。用it指代the new bike。
【小题7】这句话的意思为：我的丈夫再次有办法上下班了，和前面“to”相对应，故用from。
【小题8】honor首字母发音是辅音，故用不定冠词“an”，It’s an honour that…，做..真是荣幸…。
【小题9】“pass”的主语是 “smile”， 是被动关系，故用被动语态。句意：人们说微笑可以从一个人传到另外一个人。
【小题10】这里需要使用动词形式，意为“加强”，这是发生在过去的事情，故应该用一般过去式。
考点：考查语法填空
