【解析】

试题分析：这篇短文讲述同学们在毕业时互留赠言的方式。过去，同学们都用同学录。而随着科技的发展，同学们使用USB互留赠言。但是不同人对于这两种方式有不同的看法。

1.考查短语及语境的理解。句意：这一刻大家都有许多话要和自己的同学们说。A. a lot“副词短语，许多，大量”；B. a lot of“形容词短语，许多的”；C. many“形容词，许多的”；D. plenty of“形容词短语，大量的”。修饰动词say要用副词短语，故选A。

2.考查名词及语境的理解。句意：但是他们能把这些温暖的话语放在哪呢？A. presents“礼物”；B. books“书”；C. words“字，言语”；D. schoolbags“书包”。结合句意，故选C。

3.考查动词及语境的理解。句意：在过去，每个学生都会买一个漂亮的同学录让自己的同学把想说的话写在里面。A.read“读”；B.write“写”；C.sing“唱歌”；D.look“看”。结合句意，故选B。

4.考查形容词及语境的理解。句意：但是现在有点不同。A. same“相同的”；B. different“不同的”；C. interesting“有趣的”；D. wonderful“精彩的，极好的”。根据but，可知选B。

5.考查连词及语境的理解。句意：九年级的同学们用usb软盘代替同学录。A. instead“代替，反而”；B. but“但是”；C. however“然而”；D. instead of“代替，而不是”。后面有宾语notebook，要用instead of。故选D。

6.考查特殊疑问词及语境的理解。句意：他们不会用甜蜜的话语表达如何爱自己的朋友。A. when“当……时候”；B. why“为什么”；C. how“怎样，如何”；D. where“在哪里”。结合句意，故选C。

7.考查动词及语境的理解。句意：我喜欢usb软盘是因为它只需用不到50元。Spend，pay、cost和take都有“花费”的意思，spend主语必须是人，用于句型spend+时间/金钱 on sth或者spend+时间/金钱 （in） doing sth；pay常与介词for连用，单独使用时用于pay sb“付钱给某人”；cost主语必须是物或是某种活动；take后跟双宾语，用于句型It takes sb+时间 to do sth.“做某事花费某人多少时间。”本题主语it是物，故选A

8.考查名词及语境的理解。句意：对于我来说有很多空间可以书写。A. rooms“房间”；B. paper“纸”；C. cards“卡片”；D. space“空间”。结合语意，故选D。

9.考查短语及语境的理解。句意：使用电脑太多对眼睛有坏处。Too much和too many都是“太多”的意思，too much修饰不可数名词，too many修饰可数名词；much too“太”，无many too这一短语。本题修饰use computer，要用起到副词作用的too much。故选A。

10.考查动词及语境的理解。句意：笔记本可以保存同学们的笔记，可以让我想起他们。Make sb do sth“使得某人做某事”，故选B。

考点：社会现象类短文。
