【解析】本文为记叙文。文章中讲述了一对爱读书的父子之间的小故事。父亲总是帮儿子解答问题，并理所当然的认为作为父亲，应该比儿子知道的多。但儿子却不这么认为。

1.考查介词搭配。根据句意，此处应指“从图书馆里借一些书”，borrow sth. from someplace .故填from。

2.考查定语从句。此处为非限定性定语从句，先行词是Mike，连词在定语从句中充当主语，不能省略，故填who。

3.考查词组搭配。固定词组，too…to do…太……以至于不能……，故填to understand。

4.考查词性转换。固定词组，be interested in对……感兴趣，故填interested。

5.考查词性转换。without为介词，后接名词或名词性词（组），故填difficulty。

6.考察副词。词意是“他父亲骄傲地说”，副词修饰动词，此处用proudly修饰“说”这个动作。

7.考察副词比较级。此处句意是“父亲总是比儿子知道得多”，且其后有than表示比较级用法，much的比较级是more。

8.考查日常用语。日常用语：I don’t think so.我不这样认为。故填so。

9.考查动词时态。根据时间状语in the l9th century可知，此处应使用一般过去式。故填invented。

10.考查非谓语动词。look与主语Mr. Clark为逻辑主动关系，应使用ing分词，作伴随状语。故填Looking。

【名师点睛】

小题10。动词的-ing形式作状语它的逻辑主语必须和句子的主语是一致的，用来对谓语动词表示的动作加以修饰或作为陪衬。它可表示时间、条件、原因、让步、结果、方式或伴随动作，相当于相应的状语从句。此处表示，look和主句中don’t know的动作同时发生，用-ing形式表示伴随动作。
