Answer 1

【答案】houses；with；out；bigger；just；much；weather；come；called；window
【解析】英语的单词有着有趣的来源。本文讲述window的来源。
①句意：在窗户被使用之前，欧洲和英国的旧房子是非常黑暗的。根据逻辑关系，谓语were是复数形式，故填houses。
②句意：他们的大房间很高房顶上只有一个孔让炊烟出去。with有。
③句意：让炊烟出去，词组：let sth out让……出去。故填out。
④句意：后来，人们开始把孔弄大让更多的光和空气进入他们房间。与之前相比更大，故填bigger。
⑤句意：第一个英国的窗户只是墙上的一个小口。只是：just。
⑥句意：小口被砍的更长让尽可能多的光进来。light是不可数名词，故用much修饰。
⑦句意：（小口被砍的）狭窄是为了阻挡恶劣天气。故填weather。
⑧句意：然而，随着窗口被砍长，更多的风而不是光会进来。come in 进来，故填come。
⑨句意：这就是为什么它被叫做“风的眼睛”。故填called。
⑩句意：单词“window”就是来自于两个古代词汇wind和eye。故填window。
