解析：
【解析】
32. 考查非谓语动词。see sb./sth. doing sth.表示“看到某物正在做某事”，此处指看到天鹅正躺在河边，故填lying。
33. 考查动词时态。根据语境“我必须帮助它，否则它会死”，此处表示将来的情况，用一般将来时will die。
34. 考查非谓语动词。此处用不定式to keep作目的状语，指Ariel把夹克盖在天鹅头上是为了让它舒服。
35. 考查动词时态和主谓一致。主语Her best choice是单数，且描述过去的情况，故be动词用was。
36. 考查词性转换。此处需要副词修饰整个句子，lucky的副词形式是Luckily，首字母大写，指“幸运的是”。
37. 考查动词时态。and连接并列的谓语动词，treated和took都是过去式，故check用过去式checked。
38. 考查词性转换。此处修饰动词living，要用副词，happy的副词形式是happily。
39. 考查动词时态和主谓一致。主语Ariel’s story是单数，描述客观事实用一般现在时，故填shows。
40. 考查名词复数。此处表示泛指“动物”，要用复数形式animals。
41. 考查固定搭配。make a difference是固定短语，意为“有影响，起作用”，故填difference。
【答案】
32. lying 33. will die 34. to keep 35. was 36. Luckily 37. checked 38. happily 39. shows 40. animals 41. difference
