解析

试题分析：这篇短文主要介绍了一个学生在旧报纸上练字，总是抱怨几乎没有什么进步，老师建议他使用好纸练习，果然他取得了很快的进步。原因是他在使用好纸时，注意力比使用旧报纸时更集中。
小题1:根据上文可知那个学生抱怨几乎没有什么进步，故填complained
小题2:根据句意虽然他学习了很长时间，但几乎没有什么进步，故填though
小题3:根据句意，为什么不设法使用最好的纸呢？try to do sth ,故填to use
小题4:也许你能写得更好一些，故填better
小题5:学生照着老师说的去做了，he 指学生，主语和动词之间是被动关系，故用被动结构，故填was told
小题6:这个方法起了作用，他取得了进步，他感到奇怪，故填strange
小题7:他问老师原因，故填reason
小题8:根据句意，在草纸上写你写的不好，你认为没有关系，故填matter
小题9:你认为还有许多的旧报纸使用，所以你就不注意，故填attention
小题10:当然你就取得了快速的进步，故填make
