【解析】

骆驼能驮着重物穿过沙漠，它们连续几天不停歇地走路，不吃不喝。本文给我们讲述了原因，主要是因为驼峰赋予了骆驼这种神奇的能力。

【1】句意：它们是多么的神奇啊!

根据__1__ amazing they are!可知本句为感叹句，中心词是amazing，形容词，所以用how来引导感叹句，因其位于句首，首字母要大写，故答案为How。

【2】句意：事实上，正是驼峰赋予了骆驼这种神奇的能力，让它们能够长时间不吃不喝。

根据Actually, it’s the hump____2____ gives camels this amazing ability to go for long periods of time without food or water.可知句意为：事实上，正是驼峰赋予了骆驼这种神奇的能力，让它们能够长时间不吃不喝。这里强调的是the hump驼峰，指物，所以用that引导，故答案为that。

【3】句意：在良好的进食条件下，骆驼的驼峰可以长到40公斤。

根据A camel’s hump __3__grow to as big as 40 kilograms under good eating conditions.可知句意为：在良好的进食条件下，骆驼的驼峰可以长到40公斤。can能、可以，情态动词，后接动词原形，故答案为can。

【4】句意：一只骆驼在短时间内可以喝下130多升水。

根据A camel can take __4__more than 130 litres of water in one short drink.可知句意为：一只骆驼在短时间内可以喝下130多升水。take in吸收，让…进入，固定词组，故答案为in。

【5】句意：但是一旦这只骆驼到达绿洲，它就会喝下几百升水。

根据But as soon as this camel __5__ to an oasis, it will drink hundreds of litres of water.可知句意为：但是一旦这只骆驼到达绿洲，它就会喝下几百升水。get to到达，这里是as soon as引导的时间状语从句，遵循“主将从现”原则，主语this camel为单数，所以get用第三人称单数形式，故答案为gets。
