解析：
【分析】本题为英语阅读理解题，解题思路是先通读短文理解大意，再针对每个问题定位原文对应内容，结合问题要求（答案不超6个单词）提取或推理答案：第1题需通过蓝票、红票、黄票的兑换规则计算所需蓝票数量；第2题直接找Tom是否得到新书的原文依据；第3题定位众人感受的原文表述；第4题找Mr White的职业信息；第5题结合Tom的表现（作业不会、紧张）推理后续可能的行为。
【解析】1. 根据第一段兑换规则：10蓝票=1红票，10红票=1黄票，10黄票=新书，因此所需蓝票为10×10×10=1000；2. 第三段明确提到“The teacher gives Tom the book”，故为肯定回答；3. 第三段原文“everybody is very surprised”，直接提取；4. 第三段“Her father, a great judge”，可知职业；5. 最后Tom作业不会、紧张，可推理他可能努力学习或认真做作业。
【答案】1. 1000. 2. Yes, he does. 3. Surprised. 4. He is a judge. 5. He may study hard/do his homework carefully.
