【分析】
本题分为任务一和任务二：任务一为完形填空，需结合语境和语法知识解题：1题考查be动词，主语是第三人称单数He，对应be动词is；2题根据后文“rides one”（骑一个）判断是马；3题根据前文“grows a lot of vegetables”判断新鲜的是蔬菜；4题动词后接人称代词宾格，指代复数蔬菜用them；5题由now判断是现在进行时，结构为be+doing。任务二为句子仿写，需结合例句结构和插图内容完成，1题仿写特殊疑问句及答语，2题仿写介绍物品的句子。
【解析】
任务一：1. 主语He是第三人称单数，be动词用is，故选A；2. 由“Mr Smith often rides one when he goes out”可知农场里有马，选C；3. 前文提到种蔬菜，故新鲜的是蔬菜，选C；4. 动词water后接宾格，指代复数名词vegetables用them，选C；5. now表现在进行时，结构为“is + 现在分词putting”，故选B。
任务二：1. 例句结构为“—What are these? —They are + 名词复数”，结合插图1（土豆potatoes），仿写为：—What are these? —They are potatoes；2. 例句结构为“These are + 名词复数. Those are + 名词复数”，结合插图2（鸡chickens、羊sheep），仿写为：These are chickens. Those are sheep。
【答案】
任务一:1.A 2.C 3.C 4.C 5.B；任务二:1.—What are these? —They are potatoes. 2. These are chickens. Those are sheep.
