【解析】

本文是一篇记叙文。作者家里养了两只宠物，Chip 和 Goldie，有一次Chip掉进碗里被Goldie捞了上来。他们逐渐成长为最好的朋友，一起吃饭，一起玩耍。

1.考查时态。句意：我们的长尾小鹦鹉Chip 和 Goldie，我们收养的一只龟甲色的流浪猫，后来成长为最好的朋友，一起吃饭，一起玩耍。讲述过去发生的事情用一般过去时态，故答案为grew。

2.考查介词。句意：当时我是一个鸟类保护组织的成员，所以我们经常照顾受伤的鸟类。此处表示所有，“……的”，故答案为of。

3.考查名词复数。句意：当时我是一个鸟类保护组织的成员，所以我们经常照顾受伤的鸟类。此处用名词复数，故答案为birds。

4.考查现在分词。句意：Goldie帮助饲养了几十只受伤的和孤立的本土鸟类，充当了一名警惕的守护者。此处Goldie和act之间是一种主动关系，做自然的结果状语，故答案为acting。

5.考查过去分词做宾语补足语。句意：我在厨房里留了一大碗露在外面的煎饼面糊。根据后文Chip偷吃面糊可知，面糊是没盖，故用uncover，再根据与pancake batter是被动关系，故用过去分词做宾语补足语，故答案为uncovered。

6.考查不定冠词。句意：Chip爬上了碗，尝了一口，但很快就掉进去并沉了下去。结合句意，可知答案为a。

7.考查副词。句意：很幸运，Goldie就在身边，把脸贴在碗里把Chip捞上来。此处是副词修饰整个句子，故答案为Luckily。

8.考查定语从句。句意：我跟着Goldie回到厨房，他也被覆盖上了面糊，在地板上发现了一个弄脏了的小鹦鹉。此处Goldie是先行词，拟人手法，后面的非限制性定语从句缺少引导词和主语，故答案为who。

9.考查并列连词。句意：我跟着Goldie回到厨房，他也被覆盖上了面糊，在地板上发现了一个弄脏了的的小鹦鹉。此处是并列的谓语，故用连词and。

10.考查名词。形容词修饰名词，再根据前面的a，可知此处用名词单数，故答案为recovery。
