试题分析：本文叙述了一个女孩买水果的故事。一个女孩想在一家水果店买五美元的梨。当店主把梨给他时，她数了数，比她妈妈用同样的钱买到的梨要少。想问店主为什么，店主不想回答，并且告诉她买到的梨少，拿着的水果就少。她放在收银台上四美元。她对店主说，得到的美元少，数的钱就少。

1. has有；B. is having有； C. had有；D. have有。根据wanted to可知此处用一般过去时，故用动词had，故选C。句意：她有五美元。

2. buy买；B. sell卖；C. borrow 借；D. pick捡；根据“Please give me some pears for five dollars.”可知她想买梨，故选A。句意：她想买一些梨。

3. took拿走；B. saw看见； C. got得到；D. counted数数。根据Why did you give me so few?可知她数了数梨，发现少了，故选D。句意：当店主把梨给她时，她数了数。

4. better 更好的；B. bigger更大的；C. more 更多的；D. nicer更好看的。根据Why did you give me so few?可知我的梨个数少，她的梨个数多。故此处用more，故选C。句意花同样多的钱，她买到的梨比我多。

5. much很多；B. not a 没有一个；C. no没，不；D. a little一点；根据“Don’t ask questions,可知这个店主不想让这个女孩问问题，故说没时间回答，故选C。句意：我没有时间回答你的问题。

6. bring带来；B. carry 携带；C. buy 买；D. sell卖；结合上下文，此处指的是女孩拿着的水果少，故用动词carry，故选B。句意：你买到的梨越少，你拿着的水果越少。

7. four 四；B. five 五；C. six六；D. no不；根据You ___ give me five dollars.”可知店主要求她给五美元，说明此处她给的不够五美元，应是四美元，故选A。句意：她放在收银台上四美元。

9. more更多的；B. less 更少的,修饰不可数名词；C. few 少的，修饰可数名词；D. fewer更少的，修饰可数名词。根据she put dollars on the counter（收银台）.可知她给的钱少于五美元，修饰可数名词dollars，故用fewer, 故选D。句意：你得到的美元越少。

10. pears 梨；B. fruit 水果；C. dollars美元；D. money钱。因为dollars美元，是钱，故用名词money，故选D。句意：你得到的美元越少，你数的钱越少。
