「答案与解析」
本文讲述的是即将为母亲的生日party作准备的事情，以及对去年母亲生日party的回顾和对本人生日的设想。
1. mother‘s.从与前后的单词的搭配来看应填“某人的”，在方框中只有friend’s和mother‘s两个；由下文的描述，特别是第三段的第一句，可知应填mother’s.
2. invited.因为要举行party，自然就会邀请亲朋好友。由前面的has可知要用现在完成时表示已经邀请了，所以用invite的过去分词invited.
3. friends.见上题。
4. asked.由are可知，用ask sb to do sth的被动式，所以用过去分词。
5. and.两句之间一定是选连词，两句之间是并列关系用and.
6. because.前后又都是句子，且为转折关系，所以用连词but.
7. put.首先应判断用动词，又从后面的the best plates and glasses等可知应是已经“摆放”出来，所以用put的过去分词put.
8. beautiful.摆放的是最好的东西，房间看起来自然就是美的。
9. until.表示某种动用一直延续到某个时候用until.
10. more.由后文跳饿了，自然就会吃得更多。
11. had.与party搭配用have，因为是去年，所以用一般过去时had.
12. but.前后是转折关系用but.
13. cheaper.与形容词pleasanter并列的也一定是形容词，且为比较级，在方框中选出cheap和beautiful，根据常识应是cheaper.
14. in.表示在树上一般用介词in.注意表示在树上结的果子时又一般在on了。
15. on.跳舞当然是在草地上，所以用on.

答案与解析
本文论述了非洲灰色鹦鹉被一些科学家认为是最聪明的动物。
1. among.表示最高级的比较范围，意为“在……中”，一般用of或among，等介词，此处已有首字母a，所以是among.
2. think.根据前面的提问有首字母t可知是think，表示“有的科学家认为最聪明的动物应当是Alex”。
3. talk.根据下文对他会讲会的描述和空格后的with，可知是talk with sb（同……谈话）。
