【解析】考查詞匯和語法運(yùn)用能力。

【1】本題考查形容詞性物主代詞。wind one's way，意為“曲折蜿蜒”，故這里用its。

【2】句意：它自西向東，穿過沙漠，越過山脈，通過山谷曲折蜿蜒，（直到）最后到達(dá)海洋。根據(jù)句意可知上下句是并列關(guān)系，故用till/until/and。

【3】句意：它的第一部分在春秋時(shí)期建造。根據(jù)語意可知長城是被建造的，春秋時(shí)期是過去，用一般過去時(shí)的被動(dòng)語態(tài)，故這里用was built。

【4】本題考查不定式作狀語。句意：在秦朝，為了阻止敵人入侵，秦始皇命人把所有城墻連接起來。這里用不定式做目的狀語，故to keep。

【5】本題考查固定用法have something done使…被做（別人做），這里秦始皇命別人把所有的城墻連接，符合語境，故joined。

【6】本題考查冠詞。at the top在…頂部，這里用定冠詞指在長城的上面。句意：長城的頂部足夠?qū)捒晒?/span>5只馬或者10個(gè)人并排走。故這里用the。

【7】本題考查定語從句關(guān)系詞。句意：一路上都是眺望塔，士兵們過去站崗的地方。這里構(gòu)造非限制性定語從句，用where在定語從句中作地點(diǎn)狀語。故where。

【8】句意：當(dāng)敵人來時(shí)，塔上會(huì)點(diǎn)火作為警報(bào)。這里需要用名詞，waming警告,， 警報(bào)，預(yù)兆。

【9】句意：在古代，沒有任何現(xiàn)代化的機(jī)器，建造這樣的城墻是非常困難的。這里用副詞extremely修飾形容詞difficult，故這里填extremely。

【10】句意：所有工作都是手工完成。by hand手工，用手的，親自的。故這里用by。
