Answer 1

小题1:writers,小题1:surprising 小题1:took 小题1:younger 小题1:他在幼年时就表现出超人的记忆力。小题1:did  well  in 小题1:Two years later, their daughter Qian Yuan was born.

8. one of +名词的复数，钱钟书是我们有名的作家之一，故用writers。
9. a surprising memory表示令人吃惊的记忆力，表示事物本身我们用ing形式。
10.本题是说他叔叔带他去茶馆，考查take…to，本文时态是过去时，故用took。
11. 注意到后面用的than，可知要用形容词的比较级younger。
12. at an early age意为早年时期或幼年时期，show在这里是动词展示，表现的意思，故本句翻译为：他在幼年时就表现出超人的记忆力。
13.be good at相当于do well in，表示擅长于做某事，本文用的过去时，故do相应变成did，故答案为：did well in。
14….年后我们一般用later，表示出生用be born，这里是第三人称故用was born，全句翻译为：Two years later, their daughter Qian Yuan was born。
