1. 答案与解析：to 考查固定短语。be attached to...为固定短语，意为“喜爱……”，符合语境。故填to。

2. 答案与解析：a 考查冠词。此处指Tim Richardson是一位著名的历史学家。空格处表示泛指，应用不定冠词。故填a。

3. 答案与解析：enjoyed 考查非谓语动词。本句中有谓语动词can be，所以enjoy应用非谓语动词形式；且enjoy与被修饰词“a sweet thing”之间是被动关系，应用过去分词作后置定语。故填enjoyed。

8. 答案与解析：dates 考查动词的时态和主谓一致。句意为：嚼口香糖的历史可以追溯到古希腊。根据主从句时态一致的原则可知，主句用一般现在时，从句也应用一般现在时；that引导定语从句；指代先行词“a history”这一单数可数名词，所以此处应用动词的第三人称单数形式。故填dates。

9. 答案与解析：However 考查副词。根据下文可知，空格前后句之间为转折关系。故填However。注意首字母大写。

10. 答案与解析：that 考查强调句。分析句子结构可知，本句是一个强调句，强调的是时间状语“not until 1928”。强调句的基本结构为：It is/was＋被强调部分＋that/who＋其他成分。故填that。
