【解析】

爺爺跟孫子生活在一起，爺爺整天讀書(shū)，孫子說(shuō)他也想讀書(shū)，但是總是忘記，他問(wèn)爺爺讀書(shū)有什么好處，爺爺沒(méi)有回答，卻讓他拿著籃子去打水，可想而知最后沒(méi)有打到水，看似結(jié)果不好，但卻在打水的過(guò)程中把籃子的里里外外都沖洗干凈了，讀書(shū)和這道理是一樣的。

【1】句意：每天早晨，爺爺都早起看書(shū)。

根據(jù)下文，Grandpa! I try to read books like you爺爺！我試著像你一樣讀書(shū)�？芍獱敔斆刻煸缙鹂磿�(shū)，所以空處應(yīng)填books，故答案為books。

【2】句意：但我總是很快就忘記了我讀過(guò)的東西。

空處部分既做主句謂語(yǔ)forget的賓語(yǔ)，又做從句謂語(yǔ)have read的賓語(yǔ)，what意思為“所…的事/物”，what=the thing that，故答案為what。

【3】句意：爺爺沒(méi)有立即回答他。

根據(jù)下文He pointed to an old dirty basket … bring me back a basket of water，可知爺爺沒(méi)有立即答復(fù)他，而是讓他用籃子打水，所以用副詞immediately修飾動(dòng)詞reply，故答案為immediately。

【4】句意：當(dāng)然，他帶回了一個(gè)空籃子。

這里表示泛指一個(gè)空籃子，且empty [empti]是以元音音素開(kāi)頭的單詞，故答案為an。

【5】句意：這一次他跑得更快，但結(jié)果是一樣的。

根據(jù)句意，可知This time he ran faster 和 the result was the same是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，所以用并列連詞but，故答案為but。

【6】句意：你為什么這么容易放棄呢？

根據(jù)上文Grandpa, it was impossible to carry water in a basket. 爺爺，不可能把水裝在籃子里�？芍獙O子放棄了，固定搭配give up放棄，問(wèn)句中有助動(dòng)詞do，所以用動(dòng)詞原形give，故答案為give。

【7】句意：但不管他多么努力，他仍然失敗了。

根據(jù)下文See, Grandpa, it’s still useless!，可知他又失敗了，fail“失敗”，本文講述過(guò)去事情，所以用fail過(guò)去式failed，故答案為failed。

【8】句意：籃子里永遠(yuǎn)不能裝滿(mǎn)水。

形容詞短語(yǔ)be filled with意為“填滿(mǎn)，充滿(mǎn)…”，故答案為with。

【9】句意：里里外外都很干凈。

根據(jù)上句Instead of a dirty old basket而不是一個(gè)骯臟的舊籃子，可知籃子變得里外干凈了，所以用形容詞clean“干凈的”，故答案為clean。

【10】句意：你可能不明白或不記得一切，但當(dāng)你閱讀時(shí)，你會(huì)內(nèi)外一點(diǎn)一滴地改變。

本句呼應(yīng)上文孫子說(shuō)的“總忘記讀過(guò)的東西”but I always forget ____2____ I have read very soon.，可知空處應(yīng)填everything“所有的東西”，故答案為everything。
