Answer 1

3. to

4. of

5.the

6.has

7. be

8.V

9.had

10.the

11. the

12 the

Answer 2

1 V - вообще не встречала выражения one hot day, привычнее one day, но тут по контексту вроде бы ложится

2 at - подлететь, чтобы напиться - to fly there for a drink

3 to - после can(could) частица to не употребляется: they could not see

4 of - немного воды a little water

5 the - не нужен артикль the перед water

6 has - It wanted to break. Все повествование идет в прошедшем времени, тут обычный факт из прошлого - применяем past simple, а не present perfect.

7 be - смысловой глагол тут break, be не нужен - it couldn't break it

8 V

9 had - It took a stone and put it - последовательность действий, оба идут в past simple, не нужно предшествование (тем более по логике он сначала взял камень, а потом положил его)

10 the - не нужен артикль the перед water

11 the - не нужен артикль the перед water

12 the - в конце концов - at last, между ними артикль не нужен
