【解析】

1.a

【試題解析】本句后面的名稱school是一個可數(shù)名詞，使用a表示泛指；她在所在城市的一個重點中學(xué)里快樂成長。

2.2】 where

【試題解析】本句是一個定語從句，先行詞是a key middle school,后面的定語從句her parents both taught Chinese句子結(jié)構(gòu)很完整，所以使用關(guān)系副詞引導(dǎo)，因為先行詞是一個表示地點的名詞，所以使用關(guān)系副詞where來引導(dǎo)這個定語從句。

3.3】were devoted

【試題解析】固定搭配be devoted to…致力于…；本句還是一個定語從句，因為先行詞是students，所以使用復(fù)數(shù)形式were。

4.4】reading

【試題解析】上下文串聯(lián)。根據(jù)本段第一句Julie enjoyed reading可知從小她就喜歡上了閱讀。故使用reading作為of的賓語。

5.5】in

【試題解析】固定搭配。名詞interest通常與介詞in連用，形容詞interested也是和in連用，形成be interested in…對…感興趣的固定搭配。

6.6】her

【試題解析】上下文串聯(lián)。本句是指她對于閱讀的興趣也受益與她的父母親每天只讓她看一個小時的電視節(jié)目。

7.7】herself

【試題解析】本句中的Julie是一個女生，根據(jù)上文的her就知道了。所以使用entertain herself表示讓她自己很開心。

8.8】surprising

【試題解析】本句中的it指代后面一句話的內(nèi)容，指一件事情，所以使用現(xiàn)在分詞轉(zhuǎn)換的形容詞surprising“令人驚訝的”做表語。

9.9】 pleasure

【試題解析】本句的，從pleasure快樂是一個抽象名詞要單獨使用，指閱讀給她帶來了很多的快樂。

10.0】 but (also)

【試題解析】本句是一個固定搭配not only…but also…不但…而且…；句義：閱讀不但豐富了她的知識還提高了她的學(xué)習(xí)成績。
