解析

小题1:There

小题2:Welcome  
【试题解析】交际用语，Welcome to…欢迎来到…；
小题3:flew 
【试题解析】 这一段是叙述吉尼斯世界纪录这一想法的起源，叙述的是过去的事情，所以使用一般过去时。
小题4:what  
【试题解析】本句是一个宾语从句，what it was作为动词wonder的宾语。句意：他想知道这种鸟是不是世界上飞得最快的鸟。如果不是，那么什么鸟是最快的。What在这个句子充当is后面的表语。
小题5:nearest  
【试题解析】句意：我认为他去最近的图书馆查询有关信息，但是没有找到。
小题6:must 
【试题解析】 句意：这让他意外地一定有其他的人遇见了相同的情况。本句中的情态动词must表示确定的事情。
小题7:him/himself  
【试题解析】本句中使用反身代词，表示强调。句意：他想和他自己一样，人们会很感兴趣去发现这些记录来满足自己的好奇心。
小题8:curiosity
【试题解析】本句中放在their后面要使用名词，形容词curious的名词是curiousity。
小题9:the  
【试题解析】本句中的名词idea的后面有介词短语of…修饰，说明这里的idea表示的是特指。
小题10:to answer
【试题解析】本句中的不定式to answer….在句中做目的状语。句意：为了回答你的问题…..
