解析
本题为语篇填空题，主要考查根据上下文选择恰当词汇的能力。解题核心在于：
- 理解语篇整体内容：文章讲述林肯在美国内战期间如何宽容对待犯错的将领，并强调以情感和同理心对待他人。
- 辨析词义与搭配：需结合空格前后语境，判断词性、固定搭配及情感色彩。
- 注意逻辑连贯性：通过上下文逻辑关系（如因果、转折）确定词汇的准确性。
第1空
fatal mistakes
- 上文提到将军们接连犯错，导致林肯绝望。fatal（致命的）强调错误的严重性，符合语境。
第2空
denounced
- “denounce”意为“谴责”，与后文“half the nation”形成对比，说明民众对将军不满，而林肯保持沉默。
第3空
charity
- 林肯的宽容态度与“charity”（仁慈、宽容）呼应，后文引用“judge not”进一步印证。
第4空
quotations
- 引号中的名言是“quotations”（引语、格言），与后文“one of his favorite”搭配合理。
第5空
harshly
- 副词修饰“spoke”，与后文“Don’t condemn”形成对比，说明林肯反对严厉批评南方人。
第6空
condemn
- 与第2空“denounced”呼应，且后文“they are just what we would be”体现林肯反对批判的态度。
第7空
circumstances
- “similar circumstances”（类似处境）是固定搭配，说明林肯理解南方人的处境。
第8空
prejudice
- 与前文“creatures of prejudice”重复，强调人类行为受偏见和虚荣心驱动。
第9空
finest
- “one of the finest”是固定表达，强调小说家的杰出成就。
第10空
enrich
- “to enrich English literature”（丰富文学）与前文“creatures of virtue”形成逻辑关系，体现文学价值。
