【解析】

这是一篇记叙文，本篇短文通过讲述一个有智慧的老师叫学生把生活中不喜欢的人名写在马铃薯上，日积月累，马铃薯变多了，且变坏了，从而让学生明白不要把别人的仇恨放在心上，在生活中要学会宽容。

1.

句意：一天课结束的时候，老师让同学们每个人带一个塑料袋和一袋马铃薯到学校。

take带走，拿走；bring带来，拿来；put放；give给。此处用“bring sth. to…”表示“把某物带来”。故选B。

2.

句意：从今天开始，如果你不喜欢生活中某个人，你可以把他的名字和日期写在一个马铃薯上面，然后把它放在塑料袋里。

in在……里面；at在某个具体的点；on在……上面；of属于……的。根据“write the person’s name and the date ”可知是写在马铃薯上面，用介词on表示写在马铃薯的表面上。故选C。

3.

句意：一天又一天，一些学生的袋子越来越重。

heavy重的；strong强壮的；light轻的；weak弱的。此处表达马铃薯越积越多，袋子越来越重。用形容词heavy。故选A。

4.

句意：晚上睡觉他们要把马铃薯放在被子里，坐轿车或公交要放在座位上，在学校要放在课桌旁。

in the morning在早上；in the afternoon在下午；at night在晚上，在夜里；at noon在中午。根据“put it inside their quilts”放进被子里，可知此处指的是晚上睡觉的时候，用介词短语at night。故选C。

5.

句意：提着袋子的日子让学生逐渐认识到他们的思想负担有多重。

kept保持；took带走；asked叫；made使得。此处用动词短语make sb. do sth.表达“让某人做某事”，此处用made表示“让学生逐渐认识到”。故选D。

6.

句意：他们必须一直注意，这样他们就不会忘记。

as soon as一……就……，引导时间状语从句；since自从，引导时间状语从句；so that如此，这样，引导目的状语从句；if如果，引导条件状语从句。根据 “they wouldn’t forget it”可知此处是目的状语，用so that引导从句。故选C。

7.

句意：随着时间的推移，袋子里的马铃薯变坏了，闻起来很恶心。

sounded听起来；tasted尝起来；smelt闻起来；felt感觉。根据“the potatoes went bad”可知闻起来糟糕，用感官动词smelt。故选C。.

8.

句意：太多时候，我们把容忍作为礼物送给他人，而显然这也是给我们自己的。

another另一，又一；other别的，其他的；the other其余的；others其他的人或物。根据“it clearly is for ourselves”可知此处用other people表达“他人”。故选B。

9.

句意：如果我们选择把悲伤和仇恨放在心上，我们将终生背负。

hearts心脏；eyes眼睛；stomachs肚子;faces脸。根据“have to carry them around all our lives”可知此处用名词hearts表示把悲伤仇恨放在“心里”。故选A。

10.

句意：你认为从这位智慧老师及其要求学生所做的事，你得到了什么启发？

anything任何事，用于否定及疑问句； nothing没有什么；somebody某人;nobody没人。这是问句表示“得到了什么”此处用不定代词anything。故选A。
