1.finishing spend ...(in) doing sth.表示"某人花时间或精力做某事"。
2.carried 提示词carry所表示的动作与a survey之间是被动关系,故填过去分词。过去分词短语carried out recently作后置定语,修饰a survey。
3.varieties varieties of ...为固定搭配,意为"各种各样的......"。
4.from free sb. from ...是固定搭配,意为"把某人从......中解放出来"。
5.that 分析本句句子结构可知,此处需用that引导表语从句,在从句中只起连接作用,不充当任何成分。
6.to do with sth. to do表示"有某事需要去做"。
7.which 此处需要关系代词which引导非限制性定语从句,指代前面整个主句的内容,并在从句中作主语。
8.heavily 此处需填提示词的副词形式修饰谓语。
9.took It is high time (that) sb. did sth.意为"该是某人做某事的时候了",从句用一般过去时表虚拟语气。
10.less 与本空后more free time对应,应填提示词的比较级形式。
