【解析】

試題分析：這篇文章講述了日本人喜歡問他人的血型，他們認為血型能夠說明一個人的性格特征，也能夠判斷出一個人是否能夠成為一個好朋友。

1.根據(jù)句意：那是因為他們相信血型能夠看出一個人的性格和個性。根據(jù)Japanese people often ask people what blood group they are可知后面一句敘述的是日本人詢問人的血型的原因，故用because因為。

2.根據(jù)句意：日本人也相信了解血型能夠幫助他們判斷一個人是否能成為一個好朋友。這里缺少的是主語，所以用動名詞形式，故用knowing了解。

3.根據(jù)句意：因為不是一個傳統(tǒng)的思想而是一個現(xiàn)代化的思想。這里應選擇與traditional 相對應的詞，故用modern現(xiàn)代化的。

4.根據(jù)句意：在1901和1916年，血型被一個日本醫(yī)生發(fā)現(xiàn)，血型與一個人的氣質有關。句子的主語Blood groups 與discover是被動關系，故用discovered發(fā)現(xiàn)。

5.根據(jù)句意：O型血的人是平靜的，耐心的，能夠控制他們的情緒。這里介詞短語作定語修飾前面的名詞people，故用from來自。

6.根據(jù)句意：他們充滿了自信。be full of固定短語，充滿

7.根據(jù)句意：很難做出一個決定。make a decision固定短語，做決定

8.根據(jù)句意：他們喜歡談論和做事情，不需要他人的幫助。因為空格后是動名詞形式，根據(jù)句意應該用介詞without沒有。

9.根據(jù)句意：AB血型的人事實上更像A血型的人。根據(jù)句意故用more like更像。

10.根據(jù)句意：日本人也認為你的血型對你選擇工作和結婚伴侶有影響。因為句子的主語your blood group 是單數(shù)，所以affects影響。
