解析
1 与Canada并列,前面有"northern and central" 2个修饰,用复数,故填 regions
2 非限制性定语从句,先行词是Florida and Mexico,从句句子结构完整,主系表 the weather is warmer,先行词是地点,所以填关系副词 where
3 修饰动词"applied",需要用副词 successfully,成功地申请了土地
4 空前monarchs’为名词所有格后跟名词,故用名词protection作宾语。故填protection
5 定语从句中缺少谓语动词,联系上文applied for land等语境可知,使用过去式,故定语从句为一般过去时。故填created
6 修饰名词"long migration",需要用形容词性物主代词
7 此处为the+形容词,表示“一类”。故填the
8 非谓语 表目的,to raise ,告诉人们俱乐部和目标的目的是为了提高意识
9 连接两个并列的动作"make a change"和"cause people to do more",应用连词and。故填and
10 此处situation与improve为被动关系,且上文为短语have to do sth.。故填be improved。这种情况必须被改善
