2.To reach。

3.finding it arrived very late”是現(xiàn)在分詞短語表示伴隨狀況，句子缺少謂語動詞，根據(jù)句意可知是過去的事情，用一般過去時，故填scolded。

4.but。

5.repeating。

6. then on從那以后，故填From。

7. is/was...that是強調(diào)句型，可以強調(diào)除謂語外的任何句子成分，這里強調(diào)的是方式狀語，強調(diào)句的疑問語序是what/how is/was it that...，賓語從句用陳述句語序，故填that。

8.I crossed the river...”可知，小女孩沒有等船夫，而是自己蹚過了小溪，without doing sth沒有做某事，故填without。

9.it。
