【分析】
本题为语篇型语法填空题,需结合语境、语法规则及固定搭配逐一分析每个空:
1. 第5空:it作形式主语,真正主语是“发现妈妈不在”这件事,修饰事物用-ing形式的形容词surprising;
2. 第6空:go out的目的是帮助贫困家庭,用不定式to help表目的;
3. 第7空:while引导时间状语从句,主句为一般过去时,从句动作是过去正在进行的,主语是they,需用过去进行时;
4. 第8空:表示“和七个孩子一起”,用介词with表伴随;
5. 第9空:one of+复数名词作主语,谓语动词用单数,结合过去时态,用was;
6. 第10空:前后为因果关系(没火没食物所以又冷又饿),用连词because;
7. 第11空:表示“他们中最大的男孩”,三者及以上的最高级,用old的最高级oldest;
8. 第12空:介词after后接动名词作宾语,用hearing;
9. 第13空:固定搭配a few(修饰可数名词复数,表“几个”),句首首字母大写;
10. 第14空:固定搭配can't wait to do sth.(迫不及待做某事),用不定式to go。
【解析】
1. 第5空:修饰事物用-ing形容词,故填surprising;
2. 第6空:不定式表目的,故填to help;

4. 第8空:表伴随用介词with,故填with;
5. 第9空:one of结构作主语,过去式单数,故填was;
6. 第10空:因果关系用because,故填because;
7. 第11空:三者及以上最高级用oldest,故填oldest;
8. 第12空:介词after后接动名词,故填hearing;
