【解析】

本文是一篇故事類閱讀，主要講述了爺爺通過用煤筐裝水的事例，告訴孫子“只要讀書，不管是否真正的理解，你由內(nèi)而外均會發(fā)生改變”的道理。

【1】句意：從前，一位老人和他的孫子住在一個農(nóng)場里。

son兒子；daughter女兒；grandson孫子；granddaughter孫女。根據(jù)下文“One day, the grandson asked”可知，這個老人是和孫子住在一起的。故選C。

【2】句意：每天，老人都早起讀書。

read讀；write寫；sing唱；listen to聽。根據(jù)“That’s what happens when you read books”及語境可知，老人每天都早起讀書。故選A。

【3】句意：爺爺！我理解不了這些書。

break打破；understand理解；forget忘記；change改變。根據(jù)“That’s what happens when you read books. You might not understand or remember everything”可知，此處為男孩理解不了這些書。故選B。

【4】句意：拿著這個煤筐去河邊取些水回來。

sand沙子；food食物；flower花；water水。根據(jù)“but all the water leaked out”可知，此處是爺爺讓他去河邊取些水回來。故選D。

【5】句意：你下次必須走快點兒。

faster較快的；slower較慢的；farther較遠的；nearer較近的。根據(jù)“This time the boy ran more quickly”可知，此處是爺爺讓小男孩下次走快點兒。故選A。

【6】句意：這一次男孩跑得更快了，但是在他回家之前又沒有水了。

before在……之前；since自從；unless除非；until直到。根據(jù)“The boy tried it again but there was no water left again”以及語境可知，在小男孩回家之前筐里的水就漏沒了。故選A。

【7】句意：但他想讓祖父知道，即使他跑得再快，水也會漏出來。

because of由于；as soon as只要；ever since自從；even if即使。根據(jù)“the water would leak out”可知，此處應為even if引導讓步狀語從句，意為“即使跑得再快，水也會漏出來”。故選D。

【8】句意：籃子和之前不一樣了。

common普通的；different不同的；similar一樣的；important重要的。根據(jù)“when you read it,___ will be changed, inside and out”及語境可知，用籃子裝水和讀書一樣，只要裝水了就會發(fā)生改變，改變意味著不同。故選B。

【9】句意：籃子里里外外都很干凈。

dirty臟的；full滿的；old舊的；clean干凈的。根據(jù)“It was different”可知，籃子之前用來裝煤是臟的，但現(xiàn)在與之前不同了就是干凈的。故選D。

【10】句意：但當你讀書時，你就會被從內(nèi)而外的改變。

we我們；it它；you你；they他們。根據(jù)“when you read it”可知，此處主語應為you。故選C。
