【答案】was asked；was trying；am considering；punishing；haven't seen；to play；will clean；make；failed；can discover

【解析】【分析】大意：本文讲述一位著名科学家的故事，作者从冰箱里拿牛奶时，不小心把奶瓶掉下地了，牛奶溅到到处都是，但是他妈妈并没有因此惩罚他，而是借此教育了他，他学会了如果他抓紧瓶子顶部，他便可以把它拿起而不会掉下它。

（1）句意：当他被问为什么他会这样做，他给了答案。根据was，可知用过去时，ask 问，he和ask之间是被动关系，用过去时的被动语态，其结构为be+过去分词，主语是he，be动词用was，ask的过去分词是asked，故填was asked。

（2）句意：我正在努力从冰箱里拿一瓶牛奶的时候，突然我落下的瓶子，并且它掉了下来。此处表示我正在努力去牛奶的时候，恰好这时另一件事发生了，主句用过去将来时，主语是I，be动词用was，故填was trying。

（3）句意：他说“妈妈，我正在考虑怎样向你解释整个这件事。”consider考虑，动词，他妈妈金厨房时，他正在考虑怎样向妈妈解释，直接引语用现在进行时，其结构为be+现在分词，主语是I，be动词用am，consider的现在分词是considering，故填am considering。（4）句意：没有惩罚他，她说。“罗伯特，你搞得多么乱啊！我以前没有看见如此多的牛奶。根据常识，一般弄掉了牛奶，应该会受到惩罚，但是主人公的母亲并没有惩罚他，punish惩罚，动词，instead of后接动名词，punish的动名词是punishing，故填punishing。

（5）句意：没有惩罚他，她说。“罗伯特，你搞得多么乱啊！我以前没有看见如此多的牛奶。see看见，描述过去的动作对现在造成影响，用现在完成时，其结构为have+过去分词，根据not，可知用否定句，主语是I，构成否定句要借助助动词haven't，see的过去分词是seen，故填haven't seen。

（6）句意：因为牛奶已经被溅出，你想玩一会儿牛奶吗？would like to do sth想做某事，play玩，故填to play。

（7）句意：我们然后将会把它打扫干净。描述将要发生的事情，用一般将来时，其结构为will+动词原形，clean打扫，故填will clean。

（8）句意：无论什么时候你向这样搞得乱七八糟，最终你必须打扫干净。make a mess搞得乱七八糟，固定搭配，描述客观事实，用一般现在时，主语是you，动词用原形，故填make。

（9）句意：他妈妈然后说。”你知道，我们刚才不能用两个小手成功的拿两个大奶瓶。由于寻找拿奶瓶的方法，可知不能用小手拿起奶瓶，用fail，失败，fail to do sth不能做某事/失败做某事，根据just now可知，用一般过去时，fail的过去式是failed，故填failed。（10）句意：我们一起去院子里用水装满这个瓶子看是否你能发现一种拿它的方法。用水填瓶子的目的是看是否可以发现拿它的方法，discover发现，can可以，能，此次用can discover，可以发现，故填can discover。

（8）句意：你对此怎么想？此处是特殊疑问句，think后缺少宾语，故用what提问，故填What。

（9）句意：听到这，安东尼生气地大喊。副词修饰动词shouted，angrily，是副词，生气地，故填angrily。

（10）句意：最后，Peter被录用。根据Peter looked quite common，可知时态是一般过去时，choose与主语Peter是被动关系，故用一般过去时的被动语态，主语是第三人称单数，故助动词是was，choose的过去分词是chosen，故填was chosen。

【点评】考查语法填空，注意调整词性，时态，主谓一致和名词的数等。
