【解析】1. 空1：由“bad for her teeth”可知此处指不能吃零食，方框中snack为可数名词，泛指用复数形式snacks；2. 空2：mustn't后接动词原形，结合“pets”可知是“喂养”，填feed；3. 空3：mobile phone是固定搭配“手机”，填mobile；4. 空4：否定句中表示“也”，用either；5. 空5：green belt是固定搭配“绿化带”，填belt；6. 空6：由“put it into the rubbish bin”可知是不能乱扔垃圾，can't后接动词原形，填litter；7. 空7：make one's bed是固定搭配“整理床铺”，主语是she，用形容词性物主代词her；8. 空8：此处指归还别人借给她的东西，other people是复数，用动词原形lend；9. 空9：help sb do sth结构，结合语境是“成为一个有序的人”，填become；10. 空10：此处指规则是有用的，用形容词useful。
