【解析】

思路分析：本题应该先整体的通读文段，然后再通读需要填空的问句，联系上下文分析得出答案。

名师解析：1.通读短文之后，可以注意到这个句子：Finally he sold the farmhouse and bought a small modern______（最后他卖了这个农场住宅，然后买了一个小的现代……）由此可知是他买的farmhouse而不是借的。bought是买buy的过去式。故答案为：A。

2. 联系生活实际（Mr. Wilson was too old to work.威尔逊先生已经太老而不能工作了。）利用排除法知：他希望过平静的生活。A 快乐的、B 富裕的、C 简单的都不符合该短文。quiet意思是安静的,故答案为：D。

3. ____3____ was 400 years old and it was ____4____ building in the village.这句话中的it应该是指代3。从后面的叙述可以看出，it指的就是老人所买的farmhouse。因此横线3处应该填的是The farmhouse：这个农场住宅已经400岁了, 故答案为：D。

4.从后文中的描述：____5____ people came to see it every day. They looked ____6____ the windows and even ____7____ the garden.（人们每天来看这个住宅，他们通过窗子看甚至进到花园里。）可以知道，它是这个村里最有趣的建筑。interesting是有趣的，最高级是在单词前加the most，故答案为：B。

5.此题可以运用排除法。每天……人来看它，选项A是一些，选项B是数百名，选项C是全部，选项D是不，故答案为：B。

6.本句意思应该是：他们从窗户观察。look into词组意思是观察、窥视，故答案为：B。

7.此题可以运用排除法。选项A是照顾，选项B是打电话，选项C是走进，选项D是支付， 故答案为：C。

8.此题考查对情态动词的掌握。威尔逊先生很生气，但他不能做什么。表示能力用情态动词can。由was可知，此处应用过去式could，故答案为：C。

9. 联系上下文，本句意思应该是：他卖了这座农舍，买了一个现代的房子。当一个句子中第二次提到前面相同的名词时，可用one代替，故答案为：D。

10. 联系上下文，本句意思应该是：它没有意思，也就没人想要去看它。选项A是喜欢，选项B是希望，选项C是想要，选项D是祝愿，故答案为：C。
