【1】根据Thomas Edison was a famous American inventor.可知爱迪生是发明家，因此此处指的是发明东西。因为是过去时，故用过去式。故为invented/had/ made。句意：在他的一生中他有1093项发明。

【2】根据That’s because he was the man who never 3 up. 可知此处是询问原因的，故用疑问词why。句意：你可能会问为什么爱迪生能做了这么多项发明。

【3】give up放弃。此处是过去时，故为gave。句意：那是因为他是一个永不放弃的人。

【4】根据He believed that nothing was difficult“他人们没什么是难的”可知此处表示无论多难都能解决。故用形容词difficult或hard。句意：他总是认为无论问题似乎多么难，他能找到答案。

【5】此处表示条件，故用连词if或when。句意：他认为如果你用心去做，没什么是困难的。

【6】结合上下文，老师生气与他问与课堂无关的问题之间是因果关系，故用连词because。句意：因为那些奇怪的问题不是关于他的课的。

【7】此处作为动词teach的宾语，故用宾格形式，代替Thomas Edison，故用代词him。句意：他不能呆在学校学习，所以他妈妈在家教他。

【8】be interested in“对……感兴趣”，故此处为in。句意：他对科学感兴趣，而且学得非常快。
