【1】考查固定搭配。whether…or…不论……是否，为固定搭配。句意：无论他开着拖拉机，或者站在田地里。故填or。

【2】考查过去时态。and并列连接的两个动词时态应一致，由后面的moved to 可知，该空需用过去时态。故填found。

【3】考查非谓语动词。该空所在句子没有主语，这里的主语是和逗号前一句的主语一致的，当前后主语一致时，可将主语省略，用非谓语动词代替，he和make之间是主谓关系，所以需用现在分词。句意：他两年前回到家乡，下定决定投身于家族的生意。故填making。

【4】考查冠词。该空需用定冠词the表示特指。句意：在田地里穿正装的想法起初是作为一个笑话开始的。故填The。

【5】考查副词。take sth seriously意为“认真对待某事”，用副词修饰动词。故填seriously。

【6】考查介词。think of sth as意为“认为……”，为固定搭配。句意：大多数人认为农民整天都是脏的。故填as。

【7】考查动词不定式。seem to do似乎做某事。seem后接动词时需用不定式。句意：起初似乎没有人理解他。故填to understand。

【8】考查名词。这里做by的宾语，要用名词。句意：甚至他的家人也对于他农作时服装的选择感到惊讶。故填choice。

【9】考查宾语从句。由worried和后面的would be可知，该句为宾语从句，整个句子作worried的宾语，从句中动词不能作主语，需用动名词作主语。句意：他的爷爷担心穿正装干农活是危险的。故用doing。

【10】考查一般现在时态。由has可知，该句为一般现在时态，he作主语时，谓语动词需用第三人称单数。句意：他有一个博客，在那里他定期公布他的农作经历和他自己穿着的照片。故填posts。
