答案
(1) May (2) small (3) green (4) tired (5) can (6) hungry (7) could (8) can
解析
1. 此处是礼貌请求对方允许介绍新宠物，用情态动词May，构成"May I..."的常用句式。
2. 根据前文"Charlie is not big"可知此处填big的反义词small，表示"相当小"。
3. 根据"like grass in spring"（像春天的草）可知羽毛是绿色的，填green。
4. 根据"wants to go to sleep"（想睡觉）可知是因为疲惫，填tired。
5. 此处表示鹦鹉具备说话的能力，用情态动词can，主语he是第三人称单数，can后接动词原形。
6. 根据后文"he says, 'Food! Food!'"可知鹦鹉饿了，填hungry。
7. 句子描述昨天早上的过去场景，用can的过去式could表示过去的能力。
8. 此处表示鹦鹉现在具备从肩膀上看清楚的能力，用情态动词can。

Getting a dog
I love dogs! I always want to have one as a pet. But I know
dogs aren't easy pets. It takes a lot of hard work to take
good care of a dog. Before I get a pet dog, I have to think
a lot about how much work it takes.
First, dogs need a lot of exercise. Owners should take their
dogs for walks every day. Big dogs often need two or more
walks a day. Second, dogs need nice food and clean water
a few times a day. Last, dogs don't like staying at home
alone all day. If I get a dog, I must be ready to spend lots
of time with it.
Explain whether you are ready
to have the pet.

the pet.

hard work. I want my dog to be big but very sweet and
friendly! I plan to take good care of it and give it lots of

答案
Getting a pet duck
I really like cute ducks! I always hope to have one as a pet. But I know raising a duck isn't a simple thing. It takes a lot of careful work to take good care of it. Before I get a pet duck, I have to think carefully about what it needs.
First, ducks need clean and warm living space. I should prepare a comfortable coop for it and keep it clean every day. Second, ducks need fresh water and nutritious food regularly. They love to eat vegetables and special duck feed, so I have to make sure it gets enough to eat and drink. Last, ducks like to swim and play outside. I need to take it to a safe place to swim sometimes and spend time playing with it.
I think I am ready to have a pet duck because I have learned how to take care of it and I am happy to do all these things. I want my duck to be small and lovely, with soft yellow feathers. I plan to give it lots of care and love, and I believe I can be a good pet owner.
