【解析】Betty是一個來自加拿大的女孩，她有兩個好朋友David和Jenny。這篇短文中Betty給我們介紹了她的這兩個好朋友的外貌、愛好等。

【1】根據(jù)短文開頭I’m a girl from Canada.可知，Betty來自加拿大。be from和come from是同義短語，表示來自某地。這句話的主語是Betty，第三人稱單數(shù)形式，故填comes from。

【2】根據(jù)短文中David is tall and quiet. But he said he used to be short and outgoing. He used to play basketball可知，David過去經(jīng)常打籃球。used to過去常常做某事，后面跟動詞原形。

【3】根據(jù)文意He used to play basketball. But now he likes playing soccer better可知，David過去很喜歡打籃球，但是他現(xiàn)在更喜歡踢足球。

【4】根據(jù)短文中In his free time he usually plays soccer with his friends可知，David經(jīng)常在空閑時間和朋友們一起踢足球。in one’s free time是固定短語，在某人的業(yè)余時間。

【5】根據(jù)短文中She used to wear glasses. Instead, she wears contact lenses now.可知，Jenny過去戴眼鏡，但是現(xiàn)在她戴隱形眼鏡。instead of代替，而不是，后面跟名詞或者動名詞形式。
