【分析】
本题为词汇运用题，需结合短文语境、句子时态及语法规则，从方框所给词语中选择并调整适当形式填空。解题思路：首先通读全文把握大意，再逐个分析每个空格的句子结构、所需词性/时态，匹配方框内词语并变形，最后验证答案是否符合语境和语法。
【解析】
51. 空格位于句首，结合语境“毕竟，他们是好朋友”，方框中“after all”是固定短语，意为“毕竟”，符合要求，故填After all（句首首字母大写）。
52. 句子描述Tim的日常动作，用一般现在时，主语Tim是第三人称单数，方框中“arrive”的第三人称单数形式为arrives，故填arrives。
53. 结合“play...or soccer”的球类搭配，方框中“badminton”是球类名词，play badminton为固定搭配，意为“打羽毛球”，故填badminton。
54. 空格修饰名词sleep，方框中“enough”为形容词，意为“足够的”，符合语境“足够的睡眠”，故填enough。
55. 由“Look!”和“now”可知用现在进行时（am/is/are + doing），主语是they，be动词用are，方框中“kick”的现在分词为kicking，故填are kicking。
