【解析】

这篇短文给我们讲述了一个男孩和一棵树的故事。小时候男孩经常和树一起玩，树非常高兴。但男孩长大之后，没有时间和树一起玩了，他想要得到很多东西，树把自己的一切都给了男孩，最后只剩下了树桩。

1.句意：每天，男孩都会来收集她的叶子，做成王冠，扮演森林之王。

考查代词辨析及语境。her她；him他；them它们；it它。根据句意可知，该空代指空前提到的leaves“树叶”，是复数名词，应用them代替。故选C。

2.句意：他会爬上她的树干，在树枝上荡秋千，吃苹果。

考查动词辨析及语境。climb爬；stay待，停留；get得到；cut切割。根据下文 “…the tree said, "come, boy, come and climb my truck and swing from my branches and eat apples”可知，男孩经常爬到树干上。故选A。

3.句意：当他累的时候，他会在她的树荫下睡觉。

4.句意：但是随着时间的流逝，男孩长大了，树经常是孤独的。

考查副词辨析及语境。never从不；ever曾经；seldom很少，几乎不；often经常。根据下文 “I am too big to climb and play," said the boy”可知，男孩长大了，不经常和树一起玩了，所以树经常感到孤独。故选D。
