【小題10】 B解析:
本文通過一位國王選新國王的故事，向人們說明了“誠實是做人的根本”的道理。
【小題1】意為：我會給每個人一粒種子。
【小題2】 and在本句中表示承接關系。
【小題3】指一位名叫Ling的男孩。
【小題4】plant是動詞，其后應當用副詞；根據下文可知：他認真地種下了這粒種子。所以選B。
【小題5】根據上文可知種子并沒有生長，所以他帶著一只空盒子去了皇宮。
【小題6】指他看到別人帶著漂亮的植物，感到非常的難過。
【小題7】 get, go, arrive是不及物動詞，帶賓語時要加介詞。
【小題8】這是一個定語從句，先行詞是物，所以只能用which做關系代詞
【小題9】指除了Ling之外，你們中的人都帶來了植物和花。
【小題10】指Ling是唯一一個具有誠實和勇氣帶來空盒子的人。
