【分析】本题为任务型阅读七选五题型，解题思路为：先通读全文把握主旨（Lulu准备去祖父母家，整理行李并提及祖父母家的宠物），再逐个分析空白处的上下文语境、指代关系或逻辑关系，匹配对应选项。1. 空1前文讲Lulu答应去祖父母家，后文引出祖父母家的宠物，需衔接对宠物的态度，对应B；2. 空2前文介绍两只宠物，需对宠物做评价，对应C；3. 空3前文说Lulu放了杯子和帽子，后文提到“和爷爷玩它”，需填另一件物品，对应F；4. 空4后文是Lulu对拿球的解释，需填爸爸的提问，对应E；5. 空5前文说Lulu准备好，后文说会玩得开心，需填准备出发的状态，对应G。
【解析】1. 空1：前文Lulu答应去祖父母家，后文提到祖父母家有宠物，B选项“她喜欢小动物”自然引出下文对宠物的介绍，衔接合理，故选B；2. 空2：前文介绍了两只宠物Andy和Lily，C选项“它们都很可爱”是对两只宠物的评价，承接上文，故选C；3. 空3：前文提到Lulu放了杯子和帽子，后文“她喜欢和爷爷玩它”中的“it”指代象棋，F选项“她还把她的中国象棋放进去”符合语境，故选F；4. 空4：后文Lulu回答“它们是给Andy和Lily的”，说明此处是爸爸的提问，E选项“你为什么拿球？”符合问答逻辑，故选E；5. 空5：前文Lulu整理好行李，后文说“她觉得会和它们玩得开心”，G选项“她准备去见她的祖父母”衔接上下文，体现准备出发的状态，故选G。
