【分析】
解答这类题需先通读全文，理解短文语境和逻辑关系，再结合每个空格的首字母提示，分析所需单词的词性、词义，同时注意语法规则（如动词形式、形容词比较级最高级等）和固定搭配，逐一确定每个空的正确单词。
【解析】
1. 固定句型“It takes sb +时间+to do sth”表示“做某事花费某人多少时间”，结合首字母g，此处填get，构成“get to school（到校）”。
2. 主语she是第三人称单数，一般现在时，结合语境“需要早起”，首字母n，填needs。
3. 由“in her class”可知是班级范围内的比较，结合“hard-working（努力的）”，表示“爱好最少”，hobbies为可数名词复数，用few的最高级fewest，匹配首字母f。
4. 句中出现than，需用形容词比较级修饰名词attention，结合首字母m，填more，构成固定搭配“pay more attention to（更关注）”。
5. 结合语境“老师让她少在……学习”，首字母c，填classroom，构成“in the classroom（在教室）”。
6. 结合“keep healthy（保持健康）”，首字母e，填exercise，意为“锻炼”。
7. 前半句“她总是在运动会获胜”和后半句“她跳得最高”是因果关系，首字母b，填because引导原因状语从句。
8. 由后文“she runs fastest”可知，此处指“擅长跑步”，be good at后接动名词，首字母r，填running。
9. 结合语境“计划努力练习排球”，首字母p，填practise，意为“练习”。
10. 固定搭配“as soon as possible”表示“尽可能快地”，首字母p，填possible。
