【解析】
本文主要内容介绍了巴黎博物馆被盗抢的情况。
【1】句意：这些画就在里尔现代艺术博物馆准备开馆前被发现丢失了。
discovered发现，动词过去式；were discovered被发现，一般过去时的被动语态；have discovered已经发现，现在完成时；is discovered被发现，一般现在时的被动语态。根据本句“before the Musee d’ Art Moderne was to open.”是过去的时间，结合句意和语境可知此句是一般过去时的被动语态。故选B。
【2】句意：一扇破损的窗户和被锯开的锁暗示了星期三晚上发生了盗窃案。
moved受感动的，被移动的，移动；pulled牵引的，扯下来的，拉；lost失去的，失去；broken破碎的，打碎。根据后面“Video cameras recorded one person entering the museum”，可知是有人进入，结合句意和语境可知，应该是打碎窗户进入，所以是“一扇破损的窗户”。故选D。
【3】句意：摄像机记录了一个人通过窗户进入博物馆。
across穿过，横穿，横过，指物体表面上穿过； through通过，穿过，指物体内部内部穿过； on在…上，通过（指通过电视，无线电，互联网）；over越过；在…之上；遍于…之上。结合句意和语境可知是通过窗户，而通过窗户用介词through。故选B。
【4】句意：但目前还不清楚是否有更多窃贼参与盗窃艺术品。
why 为什么；when 什么时候；if 是否，如果；where在哪里。根据前面“Video cameras recorded one person entering the museum”，有一人进入博物馆，结合句意和语境可知，下面是“不清楚是否有更多窃贼参与盗窃艺术品”。故选C。
【5】句意：除了马蒂斯和毕加索，乔治·布拉克、费迪南·莱热和阿梅代奥·莫迪利亚尼的作品也被从博物馆的墙上拿走，这是法国首都中最受欢迎的博物馆之一。
taken away带走，拿走；given away赠送；thrown away扔掉，丢弃； put away收起来；放好；储存。根据“from the walls of the museum”，可知是“从墙上被带走”。故选A。
【6】句意：据说被盗画估计价值5亿欧元（6亿3500万美元）。
sold售，卖；cost价钱为，花费，估计成本；took拿；afford提供，买得起，担负得起。根据本句“the stolen paintings __6__ 500 million euros”本句主语是物，而sold, afford的主语都应是人，所以排除A, D。took作为“拿”讲时，主语是人；作为“花费”讲时的用法为it took sb some time to do sth, 与这里的用法不相符。故选B。
【7】句意：近几个月来，法国艺术品盗窃数量不断增加。
group组，群；part部分；lot许多，份额； number数字，数量。根据本句“France has seen a growing __7___ of art thefts in recent months.”结合句意和语境可知，“盗窃数量不断增加”符合语境。故选D。
【8】句意：一月，大约30幅油画（包括毕加索和亨利卢梭的一些作品）从科特阿祖尔的一座建筑中被盗，总值约为一百万欧元。
including包括；except除了；with带有，和；against依，靠，反对。根据前文“about 30 paintings ”和“some by Picasso and Henri Rousseau—”可知30幅油画 “包括毕加索和亨利卢梭的一些作品”，填including符合语境。故选A。
【9】句意：除夕夜，埃德嘉·德嘉的一幅油画从法国南部马塞拉的坎蒂尼博物馆也消失了。
bought买；borrowed借入；disappeared消失；appeared出现。根据上文“一月，大约30幅油画（包括毕加索和亨利卢梭的一些作品）从科特阿祖尔的一座建筑中被盗，总值约为一百万欧元。”和句中“also也”，结合语境可知“埃德嘉·德嘉的一幅油画从法国南部马塞拉的坎蒂尼博物馆也消失了”。故选C。
【10】句意：价值800000欧元的1877幅画曾被巴黎奥尔赛美术馆借来展览。
a meeting会议；an exhibition展览；a play剧本；a concert音乐会。根据本句句意可知“painting”是被借来展览的，结合句意和语境“an exhibition”符合语境。故选B。
