(答案→)where
解析：生活中的噪音越来越多，不管你是生活在繁华的大都市还是偏远的小乡村，你都不可能避开噪音的影响。虽然完全沉寂没有声音的世界是令人害怕的，但是太大的声音不但会干扰人们的注意力，而且也会对人们的耳鼓造成危害。
【小题1】where 。 根据破折号后面的解释in the middle of a modern city, or a faraway village可以判断此处的从句中缺少地点状语，填where。意思是：不管你住在哪里——在现代城市的中心或者遥远的村庄……。
【小题2】that。分析结构可知chances后面是同位语从句，从句意思完整，不缺少成分，填that。
【小题3】to have got 。固定短语：seem to do sth “似乎做某事”，根据语境判断人们已经习惯了这些噪音，所以用不定式的完成式，故答案填to have got。
【小题4】without。根据空前内容可知有些人孤独是因为没有背景音乐，此处应该填表示否定意思的介词，故填without。
【小题5】frightening。修饰名词experience应该用形容词，frightening“令人害怕的” ，用来描述事物的特征，答案填frightening。
【小题6】However。前句提到完全的沉寂会令人害怕，换句话说世界上应该有声音的存在，后句讲太大的声音对人有害，内容上是转折关系，所以填副词However。
【小题7】their。因为前句讲的是some people，所以用第三人称复数来代替，此处是修饰名词，故答案填their。
【小题8】suggests。句子主语是one report ，而且文章都用的是一般现在时，根据主谓一致的原则，答案填suggests。
【小题9】what。what 分析结构可知此处是主语从句缺少主语，所以填what。
【小题10】which。此处是非限制性定语从句，从句缺少主语，而且用来代替先行词 a background noise，故填which。
