试题分析：考查对冠词名词介词等的掌握情况

1.pointing考查现在分词。这里现在分词作定语，所艺用pointing。

2.memory考查名词。这里是主谓宾结构，名词作宾语，所以用memory。

3.for考查介词。这里long for是固定搭配，意思是渴望，所以用for。

4.lived考查时态。根据born可知这里用lived。

5.what考查宾语从句。这里what做成分，所以用what。

6.to walk考查固定搭配。Long to do意思是渴望做某事，所以用to walk。

7.a考查冠词。For a while意思是一会，所以用a。

8.but考查连词。根据前后文可知这里是转折关系，所以用but。

9.attentively考查副词。这里修饰动词listen，所以用副词，attentively。
