【解析】

本文介绍了一个可爱的女孩精心照料两只鸣禽。从鸟中她感受到了爱。一天，她发现那只更大的更强壮的鸟飞出笼子了，她去抓它，反而把它杀死了。后来女孩意识到鸟还是想回到大自然，所以她放生了另外一只鸟。这个故事告诉我们保留爱的最好方式是放手。

【1】句意：她用爱精心照料它们，鸟变得越来越强壮。

横线缺少动词，前后句都是一般过去时，所以本句谓语动词也要用过去式，她用爱照料它们，care变成过去式直接加d，故答案为cared。

【2】句意：每天早上，鸟儿们用一首美丽的歌问候女孩。

根据句意：每天早上，鸟儿们用一首美丽的歌问候女孩，with a wonderful song，用……的方式，故答案为with。

【3】句意：一天，一个女孩发现鸟笼子的门开了。

根据后文“The larger and stronger bird flew out of the cage and landed on it”可知，大的强壮的那只鸟飞出去了，所以鸟笼子门开了，was系动词后面加形容词做表语，open形容词开着的，故答案为open。

【4】句意：担心鸟飞走了，她冲出去紧紧地抓住他。

be afraid of担心害怕。现在分词做原因状语，她担心，所以是主动，变成现在分词being形式，位于句首，首字母大写，故答案为Being。

【5】句首：她非常兴奋因为她成功抓到他。

her她的，形容词性物主代词，后面加名词，她开心因为她成功抓到鸟了。succeed动词，成功，名词是success，它是不可数名词，用原形即可，故答案为success。

【6】句意：她打开她的手，惊恐地盯着死了的鸟。

根据后文“She realized that her love killed the bird.”可知，她意识到她的爱杀死了鸟。她惊恐地盯着，所以是鸟已经死了，做形容词，死了的，die是动词，变成dead形容词，故答案为dead。

【7】句意：她能感觉到他十分需要自由。

根据后文“He wanted to fly into the blue sky.”可知，他想要飞向蓝天。所以前面可以推断他需要自由。for介词后面加名词，free变成名词在后面加dom，故答案为freedom。

【8】句意：所以他提起他来，轻轻地把他扔向天空。

根据本句“So she lifted him and threw him…into the air.”可知，女孩把鸟放了，缺少副词作状语修饰动词threw，soft柔软的是形容词，加ly变成副词，故答案为softly。

【9】句意：她不再关注自己的失去。

根据前文以及问句“The girl watched delightedly at the bird’s enjoyment. She was no longer concerned with her…”可知，女孩看到鸟的自由很开心。她不再关心自己的失去。her她的，形容词性物主代词，后面加名词，lose动词，变成名词，故答案为loss。

【10】句意：他唱出了女孩曾听过的最甜美的乐曲。

根据句意“他唱出了女孩曾经听过的最甜美的乐曲。”因为鸟儿获得了自由，所以唱出了最甜美的歌，甜美的sweet，变成最高级加est，故答案为sweetest。

所给词适当形式填空是把单词放到语篇中考查，结合句意去判断要填入的词，再根据具体的语法，对单词进行必要的变形。例如第5小题，形容词物主代词后面加名词，succeed是动词，要变成名词，success，不可数名词，用原形即可。
