Explanation:

1.

Step1: Analyze the first blank. "Too" is used to mean "more than enough" in the structure "too + adjective + to do", so first blank is "too".

Step2: Analyze the second blank. The structure "too...to..." means "too...to be able to...", so second blank is "to".

Step1: "Two" is a number, and "times" here needs a number to modify, so we use "two" to mean the quantity of times.

Step1: "To" is used to show direction, "went to his room" means moving toward his room, so first blank is "to".

Step2: "Two" is a number, "two steps" means the quantity of steps, so second blank is "two".

Step3: "Too" means "also" here, "heard it there, too" means he also heard it there, so third blank is "too".

Answer:

too; to
