【解析】

本文讲述了威廉对机器很感兴趣，他的梦想就是帮助他的家庭，由于家里没有足够的钱供威廉上学，他自己去图书馆看书，得知可以用风力发电，他想着可以在自己的家乡建一个风车。

【1】

句意：威廉真的对机器很感兴趣。

根据下文中“He would take them apart and put them back together.”并结合备选单词可知，此处使用machine，表示“威廉真的对机器很感兴趣，他会把它们拆开，再重新组合起来”，因为they是人称代词，代指机器，所以此处machine使用复数形式。故填machines。

根据句中“find out”并结合备选单词可知，此处使用work，work是动词，意为“运转”，表示“他喜欢弄清楚它们是如何运转的”；根据句中liked可知，句中时态为一般过去时，所以此处work也使用过去式。故填worked。

句意：他们知道学校有多重要，对他有多好。

根据上文中“His parents didn’t have enough money for him to go to high school. They were worried.”可知，他的父母没有足够的钱供他上高中，他们很担心，因为他们知道学校对威廉有多重要，所以此处使用important，意为“重要的”。故填important。

句意：有一天威廉在图书馆看到一本书，封面上有风车。

根据句中“a book”并结合备选单词可知，此处是“威廉看到一本书”；根据上文中could可知，句中时态为一般过去时，所以此处使用动词see，意为“看见”，see的过去式为saw。故填saw。

根据句中“used wind to make”并结合备选单词可知，此处是“用风来发电”，所以此处使用electricity；electricity是名词，意为“电力，电”。故填electricity。
