【解析】

講述了老人愛看書，他的孫子就問他讀書有什么好處，他沒回答，而是讓孫子拿著裝煤的籃子去打水，一次又一次，每次都是空著籃子回來，孫子不明白，說用竹籃子打水是不可能的，但在老人的提示下他發(fā)現(xiàn)籃子內(nèi)外都變得更干凈了，由此明白了看完了書可能不會明白或記得書里講了什么，但在看書的過程中人的內(nèi)心已經(jīng)得到了改變。

【1】句意：想盡一切辦法模仿他。

way方法；book書；table桌子；根據(jù)句意理解及前句tried to copy him可知，這里表達(dá)的是“每一個方法”，英語是way，故選A。

【2】句意：當(dāng)我合上這本書的時候，我總是忘了它。

until直到……；when當(dāng)……時；since自從；根據(jù)句意理解可知，這里表達(dá)的是“當(dāng)……的時候”，英語是when，故選B。

【3】句意：那么讀書的好處是什么？

reading books讀書；getting up early早起；sitting at the desk坐在桌旁；根據(jù)句意理解及前文I want to read books as you do可知，這里表達(dá)的是“讀書”，英語是reading books，故選A。

【4】句意：祖父當(dāng)時正在爐子里放煤。

water水；book書；coal煤炭；根據(jù)句意理解及后文Take this little coal basket to the river and bring back a basket of water for me.可知祖父讓孫子拿裝煤炭的籃子去取水，這里表達(dá)的是“煤炭”，英語是coal，故選C。

【5】句意：男孩很傷心。

sad傷心的；happy快樂的；excited激動的；根據(jù)句意理解及前句but all the water leaked out before he got back home.可知男孩沒有完成任務(wù)，這里表達(dá)的是“傷心的”，英語是sad，故選A。

【6】句意：完成這項(xiàng)任務(wù)是不可能的。

difficult困難的；different不同的；impossible不可能；根據(jù)句意理解及前文The next time, the boy ran faster, but the basket was still empty before he returned home.可知，這里表達(dá)的是“不可能完成”，英語是impossible，故選C。

【7】句意：老人說，看看籃子。

Look for尋找；Look at看；Look after照顧；根據(jù)句意理解及后句The boy looked at the basket可知，這里表達(dá)的是“看”，英語是look at，故選B。

【8】句意：男孩看了看籃子，發(fā)現(xiàn)籃子不一樣了。

new新的；different不同的；wonderful精彩的；根據(jù)句意理解及后句Instead of a dirty coal basket, it was ___9___ inside and out.可知這個時候籃子里外都是干凈的，這里表達(dá)的是“不同的”，英語是different，故選B。

【9】句意：反而臟兮兮的煤籃，里里外外都變得很干凈。

broken壞的；old老的；clean干凈的；根據(jù)句意理解及前句Instead of a dirty coal basket可知，這里表達(dá)的是“干凈的”，因?yàn)樵谌∷�的過程中洗過了，英語是clean，故選C。

【10】句意：但是讀了以后你的思想會有所改變。

something一些事情；nothing沒有事情；anything任何事情；根據(jù)句意理解及后句change in your mind after you read可知，這里說的是“有一些事情”，且是一個肯定句，所以應(yīng)該用something，故選A。

完形填空首先應(yīng)該略讀全文，加以適當(dāng)猜測，對全文的大意有所了解，然后再逐句擊破。因?yàn)槲恼碌年P(guān)聯(lián)性，很多用詞前后關(guān)聯(lián)，單從一句出發(fā)不易找到答案�？赡苓x項(xiàng)中不只一個單詞符合語法，但只有一個符合文章的意思。逐步填空，對照前后，填空時不要一空一空地去填。要對照前后部分。比如第三空What are the advantages of ___3___?單看選項(xiàng)好像都合適，但是根據(jù)文章的理解及前文An old man lived with his little grandson Every day the old man got up early to read books.以及One day the grandson asked, “Grandpa, I want to read books as you do, but I don’t understand them.”便可知道是說讀書的優(yōu)點(diǎn)，這樣便可得出答案。
