解析

本题考查动词短语、介词短语的准确运用，需根据句意选择恰当的表达并调整形式。解题核心在于：

  1. 理解句意，明确空格处所需表达的逻辑关系（如动作、状态、原因等）；
  2. 匹配短语含义，注意短语的固定搭配和常见用法；
  3. 调整语法形式（如时态、主谓一致、非谓语形式等）。

（1）blazed a trail

关键点：短语"blaze a trail"意为"开辟道路"，与句中"pioneering study"（开创性研究）呼应。主语为单数名词Gaver's study，谓语动词需用单数形式，结合上下文一般过去时，故填blazed a trail。

（2）broke through

关键点：短语"break through"表示"突破"，与"glass ceiling"（玻璃天花板）搭配常见。句中描述已发生的成就，用一般过去时，故填broke through。

（3）put aside

关键点："put aside"意为"搁置"，与"their differences"（分歧）搭配。句中"need to"后接动词原形，故填put aside。

（4）turned down

关键点："turn down"表示"拒绝"，与"invitation"（邀请）搭配。句中描述过去行为，用一般过去时，故填turned down。

（5）report for duty

关键点："report for duty"意为"报到"，与"request"（要求）搭配。句中"request sb. to do sth."结构固定，故填report for duty。

（6）except for

关键点："except for"表示"除了"，修饰"Chinese New Year"。句中强调整体开放状态，故填except for。

（7）in the spotlight

关键点："in the spotlight"意为"成为焦点"，与"amid concerns"（担忧中）形成逻辑关系。句中系动词后需接形容词短语，故填in the spotlight。

（8）think of

关键点："think of"表示"想起"，与"make sb. do sth."（使某人做某事）搭配。句中主语为单数第三人称，动词需用原形，故填think of。

（9）note down

关键点："note down"意为"记录"，与"regularly"（定期）呼应。句中主语为第二人称，谓语用一般现在时，故填note down。

（10）out of

关键点："out of"表示"出于"，修饰"interest"（兴趣）。句中需介词短语作原因状语，故填out of。
