【解析】

White先生每次开车回家吃午饭的时候，他家外面就停着很多车，让他没有地方停车。最后他想出了一个办法，写了一个“礼貌的”通知，乍一看人们还以为是“警察的”通知呢。

1.句意：White先生住在一个离他的办公室不到两英里的房子里，因此他每天能开车回家吃午饭。drive 开车；walk走路，散步；fly飞。根据下文Every time he drove back home可知，White先生是开车回家，故应选A。

2.句意：每次他开车回家的时候，都有很多汽车停在他的房子外面，他就没有地方停车。some一些；many许多；no没有。根据句中there was no room for his car.可知，White先生都没有地方停车了，由此可知，在他的放在外面停放的汽车很多，故应选B。

3.句意：这让他非常的生气。angry生气的；happy开心的；excited兴奋的，激动的。根据上文…cars were parked outside his house and there was no room for his car. He had to park his car somewhere else, and then walked back home.可知，White先生家外面停着很多汽车，导致他没有地方停车，不得不把车停在别的地方，然后走回家，所以这让他很生气。故应选A。

4.句意：然后他就在一个小木板上写了“禁止停车”，房子面向道路的花园里，但是不管事儿。in在…里面；on在…上面；under在…下面。根据文意可知，White先生想写一个通知，让人们不要在这里停车。空后的board是木板，字应该写在木板的上面，故应选B。

5.句意：White夫人让他去偷一个警察的通知。buy买；bring拿来；steal偷。根据下文But he was afraid to do so.可知，White先生不敢这样做，由此可推测White夫人是让他去偷警察的通知，故应选C。

6.句意：然后White夫人就让他照着警察的通知做一个。one一个，代指上文的人或物，同类不同物；it 它，代词，代指上文的同一物；that那个。根据句意可知，White夫人是让他比照着警察的通知做一个，故应是“同类不同物”，故应选A，one代指a notice。

7.句意：但是他说他不是一个警察，不能用“警察“”这个字。policeman 警察；teacher老师；worker工人。根据文意Then Mrs. White asked him to make___6___ just like a police notice. But he said he was not a ___7___and couldn’t use the word “police”.可知，这里说的是“警察”的通知，所以这里应选A。

8.句意：White夫人看到了这块木板说：“你告诉我你不能用“警察”这个字，但是你为什么又用了？”or 或者，否则；so 因此，所以；but但是，表示转折。根据句意…you couldn’t use ….why do you use it可知，两句话之间是转折的关系，故应选C。

9.句意：White先生说：“请再看看。”Look看，动词原形；Looking 看，动词的ing形式；Looked是过去式形式。根据句子结构可知，这里是一个祈使句，故用动词原形，选A。

10.句意：White夫人这一次仔细地看了看，发现它是一个“礼貌的”通知。quietly安静地；carefully仔细地；quickly快速地。根据文意You told me you couldn’t use the word ‘police’, ___8___why do you use it?”…found it was a “polite” notice.可知，White夫人一开始以为写的是“警察”的通知，后来才发现是“polite”有礼貌的通知，所以她是仔细地看。故选B。
