【1】little

句意：他们中一个是大乌龟，一个是中乌龟，另一个是一个小乌龟。根据后文的“The little tortoise can go h___4___ and get it.”可知此处指的是小乌龟，故为little。

【2】waiting

句意：当他们正在等蛋糕时，他们想起了他们没有带钱。wait for等待，结合句意，主语they与谓语wait之间是主动关系，故用现在分词，故为waiting。

【3】pay

句意：我们忘记了带钱支付蛋糕。pay for支付，位于动词不定式符号to后，故用动词原形，故为pay。

【4】home

句意：中乌龟说“小乌龟可以回家拿钱。”根据and get it可知能拿到钱，应是回家，go home“回家”，故为home。

【5】youngest

句意：他是最年轻的，所以他应该是可以去的那个。根据前文的One of them was a large tortoise, one was a medium-sized tortoise and another was a l___1___ tortoise.可知小乌龟是这三个乌龟中最小的，故为youngest。

【6】with

句意：小乌龟很不高兴，但他知道他不应该和他的长辈争论。argue with sb和某人争吵，故为with。

【7】when

句意：但是当我离开的时候，你们必须保证不要吃我的蛋糕。此处表示我离开的时候，故用连词when。

【8】money

句意：大乌龟和中乌龟同意了，小乌龟出发回家拿钱。根据前文的“Hey, we forgot to bring money to ___3___ for our cake,” the big tortoise said. “The little tortoise can go h___4___ and get it.”可知他们忘了带钱，故此处表示小乌龟回家拿钱，故为money。

【9】hungry

句意：我又饿了。根据Let’s eat the little tortoise’s cake.可知他们想要吃小乌龟的蛋糕，因此表示他饿了，故为hungry。

【10】you

句意：如果你碰我的蛋糕，我就不去拿钱了！结合句意，此处缺少主语，结合上下午，此处是小乌龟对中乌龟说，应是“如果你碰我的蛋糕”，故为you。
