试题分析：本文主要讲述了作者如何对音乐感兴趣的故事。作者14岁时想赚零花钱，于是去帮助Mr. Miller整理草坪，但是在工作了一周后，Mr. Miller无力付钱。后来，作者在母亲的要求下重新返回Mr. Miller家，这次Mr. Miller为作者播放了音乐并给了作者一张音乐会的票，从此作者很喜欢音乐并成为一名歌手。

【1】helping 考查动词。本空考查介词之后用动词的ving形式，故填helping。句意为：我决定通过帮Mr. Miller修剪草坪而赚点零花钱。

【2】greatly 考查副词。本空考查修饰动词用副词，这里是修饰动词surprised的，故使用great的副词形式。句意为：这是我大为惊讶。

【3】with 考查介词。本空考查固定短语：be angry with，意为对某人感到生气。故填with，句意为：我的父母让我不要对Mr. Miller生气。

【4】he 考查代词。本题根据句意这里指的是Mr. Miller有困难，故用代词he。

【5】the 考查冠词。考查固定短语：on the phone，表示在通电话。故填 the。句意为：他们在电话里说着些什么。

【6】to look 考查非谓语。本句考查不定式担当结果状语，用于：too…to…结构中，意为太…而不能…。故填to look，句意为：他太虚弱而不能照料花园。

【7】but 考查连词。本句前一分句意为：我没有钱。后一分句意为：我可以为你做点事。两个分句之间存在转折关系，故填but。

【8】that 考查连接词。本句考查句式：so…that…，意为：如此…以至于…。故填that，句意为：我对它是如此感兴趣以至于我忘记了钱。

【9】singers 考查名词。根据句意：现在我是我们国家最受欢迎的歌手之一。故填singer，注意要使用复数形式。

【10】thank 考查动词。根据上句可知作者现在是歌手，故作者应该感谢Mr. Miller。故填thank，句意为：我非常感谢Mr. Miller。
