【解析】

本文讲述了动物是我们的朋友，我们应该善待动物。英国政府正制定一些规则来保护宠物。

【1】句意：我认为很多家庭把动物当作宠物来饲养是很好的。

此处表示作为宠物，故用介词as。

【2】句意：有些人喂宠物喂的食物不够，所以它们很容易饿。

根据“Some do not feed their pets enough”可知，喂宠物的食物不够，因此它们会感到饿，故此处为hungry。

【3】句意：也有一些人实际上伤害了他们的宠物。

根据音标/ht/，故此处为hurt。

【4】句意：人们不应该这么恶劣地对待他们的宠物。

修饰动宾短语treat their pets，故用bad的副词形式，故此处为badly。

【5】句意：英国政府正在想办法帮助保护宠物。

根据音标/pr'tekt/，故此处为protect。

【6】句意：它正在制定一些有关如何照看不同种类动物的规则。

此处作为介词about的宾语，用疑问词+to do sth.，结合句意，表示如何照看动物，故此处为how。

【7】句意：而且，这些规则甚至解释了让动物保持愉快的方法！

根据音标/k'splen/，故此处为explain。

【8】句意：难道你不认为对于宠物来说，这些是好消息吗？

根据前一句“They will make sure all the pets can live a good life.”可知，这对宠物来说，是好消息，修饰名词news，故用形容词，故此处为wonderful/excellent。

【9】句意：他们可以去人们的家里检查他们是否正在正确照料宠物，否则他们会把动物带走。

修饰名词homes，故用名词所有格形式，故此处为people's。

【10】句意：我希望更多的人会努力比以前更好地照料宠物。

根据“than before”可知，此处用比较级，故此处为better。
