Explanation:

1. A major scale has 8 steps (notes) total.
2. A sharp raises a pitch by one half tone.
3. A major scale has 5 whole steps between its notes.
4. A flat lowers a pitch by one half tone.
5. D-flat is enharmonically equivalent to C-sharp.
6. The interval between C and D is a whole step.
7. The blanks are filled using the numbered letters from the word "major" for sentence 1, "half" for sentence 2, "five" for sentence 3, "flat" for sentence 4, "C" for sentence 5, "whole" for sentence 6, and the counts of steps for the final lines.

Answer:

1. $\boldsymbol{1:m,\ 2:a,\ 3:j,\ 4:o,\ 5:r}$ (major)
2. $\boldsymbol{3:h,\ 4:a,\ 5:l,\ 6:f}$ (half)
3. $\boldsymbol{5:f,\ 6:i,\ 7:v,\ 8:e}$ (five)
4. $\boldsymbol{1:f,\ 2:l,\ 3:a,\ 4:t}$ (flat)
5. $\boldsymbol{9:C}$
6. $\boldsymbol{10:w,\ 11:h,\ 12:o,\ 13:l,\ 14:e}$ (whole)
7. $\boldsymbol{10:5,\ 7:4,\ 4:2,\ 1:1}$ (five steps: 10,7,4,2,1)
8. $\boldsymbol{9:5,\ 6:4,\ 3:1}$ (two steps: 9,6,3,1)
9. $\boldsymbol{9:1}$ (both ends: 9,1)
