A Special Birthday Gift
My best friend Tom's birthday is coming this 1. It is on the 2 of July. I want to give him a surprise. I don't buy a gift from a shop. 3, I make a gift by myself.
I buy some coloured paper, a pair of scissors and glue. I work for two 4 to make a beautiful birthday card. On the front, I draw a big cake with 5 candles for Tom's eleventh birthday. Inside, I write, "Happy Birthday, Tom! You are a great friend."
On his birthday, I go to his home with the card and a small box of 6. He sees my card. Then his eyes become wide and bright. "Do you make this 7?" he asks. "Yes, just for you," I say. He smiles. He says it is the 8 gift he has ever received. We eat the cake his mum makes. We play games all afternoon. It is a 9 day.
Sometimes, the best gift is not the most expensive one. It is the one made with 10 and love.

1. 第1题：this week意为“这周”，符合“Tom的生日即将到来”的语境，this不与today直接搭配，day不符合语义，选A。
2. 第2题：表达具体日期要用序数词，“7月12日”的正确表达是the twelfth of July，twelve是基数词，twelveth拼写错误，选C。
3. 第3题：前文提到“我不从商店买礼物”，后文表示“我自己做礼物”，instead意为“相反、取而代之”，符合语境逻辑，选B。
4. 第4题：数词two后接可数名词复数，two hours表示“两小时”，hours'是名词所有格，不符合此处语义，选A。
5. 第5题：此处要表达“11根蜡烛”，用基数词eleven表示数量，eleventh是序数词，elevens形式错误，选A。
6. 第6题：chocolate此处是不可数名词，a small box of chocolate意为“一小盒巧克力”，不需要变复数也不用所有格，选A。
7. 第7题：句意为“这个是你自己做的吗？”，反身代词yourself表示“你自己”，符合语境，选C。
8. 第8题：限定范围是“他收到过的所有礼物”，超过三者，要用形容词最高级best，选C。
9. 第9题：前文描述了一起吃蛋糕、玩游戏的愉快经历，所以这是完美的一天，perfect符合语境，选C。
10. 第10题：全文讲述自己花时间亲手制作礼物，句意是最好的礼物不是最贵的，而是用时间和爱制作的，time符合语境，选A。
