【答案解析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一个辞职帮助爷爷实现愿望清单上的一些愿望而在社交媒体上走红的四川自贡女孩和她爷爷的故事。

1．popularity。考查名词。分析句子结构并根据空前的“has gained”可知，空处应该填入popular的名词形式popularity作宾语。

2．posted。考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，空处所在句已有谓语show，故空处应填非谓语，post与其逻辑主语The short videos为动宾关系，故空处应用过去分词作后置定语。

3．who。考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知，空处引导非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词wife，指人，从句缺少主语，故填who。

4．to。考查介词。此处考查固定搭配from…to…“从……到……”。故填to。

5．to attend。考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构并根据语境可知，“  5    (attend) the national flag-raising ceremony”为目的状语, 故填不定式to attend。

6．patiently。考查副词。分析句子结构可知，空处修饰waiting，应填副词形式patiently作状语。

7．sang。考查动词的时态。分析句子结构可知，空处与下文中的wiped并列，故填sang。

8．destinations。考查名词的数。根据空前的some可知，空处应填destination的复数形式destinations。

9．receiving。考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，空处所在句已有谓语 have been viewed，故空处应填非谓语，receive与其逻辑主语The videos为主谓关系，故空处应用现在分词receiving作状语。

10．meaningful。考查形容词。空处修饰下文中的名词短语her life，故填形容词形式。
