小题1:考查时态。for a long time“很长时间”，for+一段时间，与完成时连用。根据did可知，应该用过去完成时。故填hadn’t met。
小题2:考查宾语从句的时态。根据promised可知，从句用过去的某种时态。根据句意可知，表示将来。故填would catch。
小题3:考查固定句型。It is the+序数词+time that sb have done sth“是没人第几次做某事”。故填have visited。
小题4:考查固定句型。have difficulty (in) doing sth“做某事有困难”。故填controlling。
小题5:考查固定句型。please后加动词原形，否定直接加not。故填not disturb。
小题6:考查while的用法。While“而”，表示对比，两个分局都用进行时。故填was packing。
小题7:考查时态。they were looking forward to是定语从句，不要被迷惑了。根据yesterday可知，应该用过去时。故填was held。
小题8:考查as的用法。as“随着”，后跟句子。根据句意可知，本句好似现在的情况。故填progresses。
