【解析】

试题分析：本文讲述的是东汉时“孔融让梨”的故事。孔融把大的梨让给哥哥们和弟弟吃：对于哥哥们，他认为自己要小些，所以大梨该哥哥们吃；对于弟弟，他认为自己比弟弟大，所以大梨应该给弟弟吃。故事教育人们凡事应该懂得谦让的礼仪。

1.smart句意：小时候他很聪明。结合整个故事，可知，孔融是一个聪明的男孩，故填：smart。

2.bought句意：一天，父亲买了一些梨。根据句意可知本空填“买”，指one day发生的过去动作，用一般过去时，故填：bought。

3.surprised句意：他的父亲非常诧异并且问道：“为什么？”父亲对儿子不愿意吃大梨感到惊奇，指人感到惊奇：surprised。故填：surprised。

4.further句意：父亲听了他的话非常高兴，并进一步地问到。前面孔融给父亲解释了为什么把大梨让给哥哥们吃，父亲后面进一步问他为什么把梨让给弟弟吃。进一步提问，表示程度，用further,故填：further。

5.句意：我比他大，因此我应该把大些的梨留给我的小弟弟。“留下”：leave，故填：leave。
