本篇講述在一次爬樹比賽中，大衛(wèi)不畏自己是孩子中最矮的，勇往直前地向上爬，不像其他孩子總向下看，擔(dān)心掉下來，最后最快到達樹頂，故事告訴人們生活中如果我們不回頭看而是勇往直前，我們更有可能更快達到目標(biāo)。

從文字的表層意思推斷空格指看看誰是第一個爬到樹頂?shù)哪泻�，空格在定冠詞和單數(shù)名詞之間，判斷填序數(shù)詞；one基數(shù)詞，其序數(shù)詞為first，第一；故答案為first。

【2】句意：他們的母親坐在不遠處，看著她們的孩子們玩。

從文字的表層意思推斷空格指母親們在不遠處看著她們的孩子們玩；child孩子，名詞，根據(jù)文字表達的邏輯關(guān)系，可知their后接名詞的復(fù)數(shù)形式；child的復(fù)數(shù)形式為不規(guī)則變化children；故答案為children。

【3】句意：他是群里個子最矮的孩子。

空格在定冠詞和單數(shù)名詞之間，判斷填形容詞最高級；根據(jù)下文“Nobody thought that he would win the competition”推斷空格指他是最矮的孩子，沒人覺得他會贏；short的最高級為規(guī)則變化，在詞尾+est；故答案為shortest。

【4】句意：沒人想到他會贏得比賽。

空格在助動詞后面，判斷填動詞原形；根據(jù)上文“He was the shortest child in the group”推斷空格指沒人想到他會贏得比賽；win獲勝，動詞；故答案為win。

【5】句意：所有的男孩都盡力爬得盡可能高。

從文字的表層意思推斷空格指盡力爬；try one’s best to do sth盡力做某事；講述發(fā)生過的事情，用一般過去時；try的一般過去式以輔音+y為結(jié)尾，要改y為i，再+ed；故答案為tried。

【6】句意：他們都比大衛(wèi)先爬到樹的一半高，但最后他最快到達樹頂。

空格在句尾，判斷是句子的狀語；根據(jù)下文“David, how did you manage to reach the top of the tree so quickly?”推斷空格指大衛(wèi)最后最快到達樹頂；in the end 最后；故答案為end。

【7】句意：他母親以他的兒子為榮。

空格在be動詞后面，判斷填形容詞；由上文可知大衛(wèi)是最矮的、最后最快到達樹頂，推斷他媽媽為他感到驕傲；故答案為proud。

【8】句意：大衛(wèi)，你怎么這么快就爬到了樹頂。

由上文可知大衛(wèi)是最矮的、最后最快到達樹頂，推斷下文指媽媽好奇地問兒子為什么可以爬得那么快；quick快的，形容詞，其副詞形式為quickly，快地；故答案為quickly。

【9】句意：當(dāng)他們意識到自己有多高的時候，他們會害怕，擔(dān)心掉下來。

從文字的表層意思推斷空格指爬得高擔(dān)心會掉下來；fall down掉下，空格在介詞后面，判斷填動名詞；fall的動名詞形式為規(guī)則變化,在詞尾+ing；故答案為falling。

【10】句意：當(dāng)我看到我有多靠近，我爬得越來越高，直到我到達山頂。

從文字的表層意思推斷空格指一直往上爬，爬到樹頂；空格在2個單句之間，判斷填連詞，until直到……，引導(dǎo)時間狀語從句；故答案為until。
