【解析】:
1. 根据语境“his mother and father died in a car...”可知,父母在车祸中去世,car accident 表示“车祸”,所以选 D。
2. 结合前文“adopted him”以及他是男孩,可知他对于 Kelly 来说不是儿子(Stephen是被收养的,这里表达他觉得自己对Kelly来说不是儿子)等其他选项逻辑不符,所以选 A。
3. 从“He cried secretly. He had no smile on his face.”能看出他话少,little 表示“少”,修饰不可数名词,这里修饰动词 speak 用副词形式,从含义上选 B。
4. 根据“He had even been working on a plan — to run away and never...”可知是永远不回来,return 表示“回来”,所以选 C。
5. 前文提到“Stephen knelt down to pet him.”,之后抬头问,look up 表示“抬头看”,所以选 A。
6. 根据下文“I’ll call him Spot!”可知是给狗起名字,give sb. a name 表示“给某人起名字”,所以选 A。
7. 根据常识和语境,晚饭前要打扫浴室,clean the bathroom 表示“打扫浴室”,所以选 B。
8. 根据“a smile appeared on his face again”可知有些变化发生了,Something different 表示“一些不同的变化”,所以选 C。
9. 根据“like a loyal shadow”可知狗像忠诚的影子一样跟着他,follow 表示“跟随”,所以选 B。
10. 根据“he had given up his plan to leave the house”可知最终他放弃了离开的计划,Finally 表示“最终”,所以选 D。
