【分析】
做这类短文适当形式填空题，首先第一步要通读全文，理清文章主旨是介绍14岁男孩David和排球相关的生活、学习情况。接下来逐空推导：优先回忆课内学过的固定搭配，再结合句子成分判断所需词性，根据人称、指代关系、语法规则完成词形变换，最后把所有答案代入通读检查逻辑是否通顺，避免语法错误。
【解析】
36. 固定搭配come from表示“来自”，符合句意“他来自英国”，因此填from。
37. 此处要修饰名词school，表达“David的学校”，需要用名词所有格，在人名后加's，因此填David's。
38. 固定结构“疑问词+不定式”作宾语补足语，teach sb how to do sth表示“教某人如何做某事”，因此填to。
39. 空格前后的形容词strong（强壮的）和happy（开心的）是并列同向关系，用并列连词and连接，因此填and。
40. 固定短语in one's free time表示“在某人的空闲时间”，此处指代男性David，要用对应的形容词性物主代词，因此填his。
41. 空格位于be动词后作表语，修饰“交朋友”这件事，需要把名词interest变为修饰事物的形容词“有趣的”，因此填interesting。
42. 固定常用搭配at weekends表示“在周末”，因此填weekends。
43. 此处修饰动词do，需要用副词，固定搭配do well in表示“在……方面做得好”，要把形容词good变为副词形式，因此填well。
44. 此处表示“一名好学生”，good是以辅音音素开头的单词，要用不定冠词表泛指，因此填a。
45. 主语He是第三人称单数，句子为一般现在时，谓语动词要变为第三人称单数形式，因此填hopes。
【答案】
36. from 37. David's 38. to 39. and
40. his 41. interesting 42. weekends
43. well 44. a 45. hopes

【点评】
本题属于初中低年级基础题型，全部考点都来自课内核心的基础语法和固定短语，没有设置偏难怪的考点，仅需要学生掌握基础的词性判断规则、常用搭配即可完成，易错点集中在区分interesting和interested、do well in的副词变形两处。
