Ⅴ.【语篇导读】本文讲述了作者对于烹饪的热爱和想成为一名厨师的梦想。
1. working 句意：每个人都想通过努力工作来实现他或她的梦想。根据“Everyone wants to make his or her dream come true”可知，此处指通过努力工作来实现自己的梦想，work hard意为“努力工作”，介词by后接动名词。
2. them 句意：我的一些同学想成为医生，一些想成为工程师。some of...表示“……中的一些”，应用them指代前面提到的my classmates，作介词of的宾语。
3. probably 句意：一些人可能认为这不是一份好工作，但对我来说，烹饪很有趣。空处修饰动词think，应用副词，probably意为“可能”，符合语境。
4. when 句意：当我五岁的时候，我开始对烹饪表现出极大的兴趣。此处指当“我”五岁时，应用when引导时间状语从句，符合句子结构和语境。
5. tried 句意：我记得在八岁的时候我第一次尝试做饭。根据“at the age of eight for the first time”以及cooking可知，这里表示尝试做饭，try doing sth意为“尝试做某事”；根据“at the age of eight”可知，句子时态是一般过去时，应用try的过去式tried。
6. improve 句意：随着时间的推移，我做了许多其他的菜肴来提高我的烹饪技能。根据cooked many other dishes以及my cooking skills可知，做许多其他菜肴是为了提高烹饪技能，improve意为“提高”，符合语境，不定式符号to后接动词原形。
7. with 句意：在那里，我和来自不同学校的青少年交朋友，我真的感到很开心。make friends with sb是固定短语，意为“和某人交朋友”，应填with。
8. glad 句意：当我告诉我父母这个好消息时，他们对这个结果感到很高兴。根据won first prize以及“told my parents the good news”可知，听到“我”得到第一时父母应该是高兴的，glad意为“高兴的”，符合语境。
9. travellers 句意：我希望来自不同国家的游客能喜欢我的菜肴。根据from different countries以及enjoy my dishes可知，此处是说来自不同国家的游客，travellers意为“游客”，符合语境。
10. believe 句意：这并不容易，但我相信通过努力工作我会成功的。根据“It’s not easy, but I...”可知，这里表示转折，虽然不容易，但相信自己能成功，believe意为“相信”，符合语境；主语是I，且句子时态为一般现在时，动词应用原形。
