【3】so/and

【4】down

【5】There

【6】without

【7】successful

【8】eventually

【9】was heard

【10】cost/has cost

【解析】

试题分析：Woolworth最初创业，让老板提供资金，遭到拒绝，靠自己获得成功，以前的老板追悔莫及

【1】a 句意：这个想法是一次大的成功。此处是抽象名词具体化，a success一个成功的人，一件成功的事。故填a.

【2】to open 固定词组：inspire sb.to do sth.鼓励某人做某事。故填to open。

【3】so/and 句意：这次冒险需要资金，所以他请求老板提供给他资金。故填so/and。

【4】down 句意：他的老板拒绝了他。故填down。turn down拒绝，把音量调小。

【5】There 句意：没有足够的东西卖。此处是there be 句型，开头应大写，故填There。

【6】without 句意：没有他老板的支持。故填介词without。

【7】successful 形容词作表语，故填successful。

【8】eventually 副词修饰动词，故填eventually。

【9】was heard 后来，听到他的老板评论说---。根据句意此处用一般过去时态的被动语态，故填was heard。

【10】cost/has cost 句意：依我看来，过去我拒绝Woolworth 的每个单词让我付出了大约一百万的代价。故填cost/has cost。
