答案：【解析】：
这是一道英语词汇运用题，主要考查学生对形容词最高级、冠词、动名词、连词、代词以及固定搭配的掌握和运用。需要学生根据上下文语境和语法规则，在空白处填入适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
(1) 根据“Of all the activities”可知，此处是在所有活动中进行比较，所以要用popular的最高级形式。
(2) “at least”是固定短语，意为“至少”。
(3) “experience”是可数名词单数，且“unforgettable”是以元音音素开头的单词，所以用不定冠词an。
(4) “spend time (in) doing sth.”是固定用法，意为“花费时间做某事”，所以用work的动名词形式working。
(5) 前后句是转折关系，所以用连词Although。
(6) “dollar”是可数名词，根据“25 billion”可知要用复数形式dollars。
(7) 此处修饰名词“plants”，要用形容词性物主代词their。
(8) “want to do sth.”是固定用法，意为“想要做某事”，所以用to buy。
(9) 此处修饰动词“enjoy”，要用副词completely。
(10) 根据“in the future”可知要用一般将来时，其结构是“will + 动词原形”，所以用will fall。

答案：【解析】：
1. 本题考查细节理解。题干问的是在和Billy一起制作蓝莓汁之前，Billy的叔叔已经制作过哪些果汁。根据文章第一段，“He made carrot juice, apple juice, vegetable juice and many more kinds of juices. He'd never made blueberry juice before.”可知，叔叔已经制作过胡萝卜汁、苹果汁和蔬菜汁，但没有制作过蓝莓汁。因此，选项C（①②④）是正确的。
2. 本题考查细节理解。题干问的是根据文章，为什么蓝莓在商店里那么贵。根据文章第二段，“It was hard work picking the little berries from the trees. Now Billy understood why they are expensive in stores.”可知，因为采摘蓝莓很困难，所以它们在商店里很贵。因此，选项D（采摘它们很困难）是正确的。
3. 本题考查细节理解。题干问的是下列哪一种果汁与蓝莓汁颜色相似。根据文章第四段，“They used grape juice because the grapes had a similar colour to the blueberries.”可知，葡萄汁与蓝莓汁颜色相似。因此，选项A（葡萄汁）是正确的。
4. 本题考查文章结构。题干问的是文章的正确结构是哪一个。根据文章内容，第一段介绍Billy和叔叔制作果汁的背景；第二段描述他们采摘蓝莓的过程；第三段和第四段描述他们制作蓝莓汁的过程；最后一段总结他们的成果和感受。因此，文章结构应该是总分总结构，选项D符合这一结构。
5. 本题考查标题归纳。题干问的是文章的最佳标题是什么。根据文章内容，全文主要讲述了Billy和叔叔一起制作蓝莓汁的过程。因此，选项A（制作蓝莓汁）是最符合文章主旨的标题。
