試題分析：本文講述了格林兄弟撰寫《格林童話》的歷史背景和童話的來源及成書的過程，他們弟兄倆具有很高創造力，將當時民間的文學資料搜集起來，并合而為一，最后他們共同編成《格林童話》，倍受世人歡迎。

1.根據他們弟兄倆的名字和書的名字可知，此處的句意應該是你可以想象得到書的名字；故答案為name。

2.這本書是在他們弟兄倆上中學時就開始著手寫了，是在老師的幫助下即和一位優秀的老師一起寫的；故答案為with。

3.這位老師喜歡發現事情的發展緣由，很快老師的這種探求新事物的精神也被格林兄弟學到，即很快他們弟兄倆也做相同的事情：也在探索事情的發展緣由；故答案為soon。

4.既然是探求事物的緣由，自然是發現問題并探求問題的答案；故答案為answers。

5.后面列舉的都是一些問題，所以這些是他們探究的問題的一部分，即在他們詢問的問題中有下面的這些；故答案為questions。

6.在人們知道如何寫這些故事之前，許多故事都是編造的；故答案為how。

7.人們將這些故事相傳并且傳給了自己的子女，但是只有少數人記得這些故事；故答案為remembered

8.本句是弟兄倆的擔心：當這些老人去世以后，這些優秀的故事也會隨之消失；故答案為die/ disappear。

9.接下來就是弟兄倆的志向：要把這些故事寫下來，即write down；故答案為down。

10.《格林童話故事》面世后備受人們的喜歡，所以，格林弟兄倆又出版了兩本書來滿足人們的要求；故答案為more。
