【解析】

本文讲述的是查理打棒球不小心打烂了窗户，在老师面前他最终勇敢地承认了错误，老师没有惩罚他，而是给了他一本他最心爱的书的故事。

1.句意：她从不生气，但这次她生气。never从不；sometimes 有时；always 总是；often 经常。从后句“但是她这次生气了”可以推测出她平时是不生气的。故选A。

2.句意：查理打破了窗户，但他是无意的。opened 打开；broke 破坏；closed 关闭；cleaned清洁。从后“他向窗户掷了棒球”可以推断出他把窗户打烂了，故选B。

3.句意：查理想：“如果我说是我，我会惹麻烦”。Because 因为；As 当…；If 如果；When 当…。这是描述他的心理活动，是他想出的一个假设条件，故选C。

4.句意：我怎么赔得起像那样的大窗户呢？短语pay for…意为“为…付款”，这里pay只能和介词for连用，其他介词on/in/at均不可，故选B。

5.句意：查理站了起来。left away离开；came in进来；took out拿出；stood up站起来。前句说查理头脑中一些强有力的东西让查理有了勇气，承认了这件事，所以这里是站了起来，故选D。

6.句意：那样说是很困难的。angry生气的；happy开心的；hard困难的；friendly友好的。当着全班同学和老师的面承认错误，是一件很难的事，故选C。

7.句意：老师走向查理，手里拿着一本书。book书；ruler尺子；knife刀子；pen钢笔。从后面可以看出老师把一本关于鸟类的书给了查理，可知老师手中是一本书，故选A。

8.句意：我知道是你做的，并且我知道让你感兴趣的是鸟类。how怎样；when何时；why为什么；what什么。这里是宾语从句的主语部分，指的是“使某人感兴趣的东西”，用what引导这个宾语从句中的主语从句，故选D。

9.句意：现在是你的了。mine我的东西；yours你的东西；ours我们的东西；hers她的东西。从前面可知老师是给查理一本他喜欢的书，书现在是“你的”了，故选B。

10.句意：查理不敢相信！think想；agree同意；hope希望；believe相信。生气的老师没有责罚他，令他不敢相信，故选D。
