语篇解读：本文是记叙文。讲述了一个聪明的小男孩在旅行时为富人提重物的故事。 1．to take decide后接不定式作宾语。

2．Before 根据前后句的时间关系可知填before引导时间从句。 3．with with表示“与……一起”。

4．chose 由上下文可知，事情发生在过去，故用一般过去时。 5．foolish 所填词做表语，故用fool的形容词形式foolish。 6．heaviest 根据句意和冠词the，可知用最高级。 7．nothing 根据下半句内容可知填nothing。 8．and 前后是完整的单句，且为顺承关系，故填and。 9．during 根据语境，强调整个旅行期间，故用during。 10．they 指代他们所有的人。
