【解析】

試題分析：本文講述了合租屋的特點以及合租屋的好處，合租屋可以讓人們在現(xiàn)代社會生活得到一種慰藉，人們可以一起購物，做飯并共用晚餐。合租屋還可以節(jié)省花費。

【1】it考查代詞。It is +adj. for sb. to do sth, it 為形式主語，真正的主語是to 引導的不定式。故填it。

【2】however考查連接詞。However 表示轉折關系。根據(jù)前一句句意，在許多國家來自不同背景的人們住在一起是很常見的。該句意思是 在美國這種想法卻很奇怪。兩句為轉折關系，故填however。

【3】called考查動詞。House 跟動詞 call 之間為被動關系，句意為這種房子被人們稱作為合租建筑，故填called。

【4】popularity考查名詞。Gain 為及物動詞后接賓語，賓語需用名詞形式，故填popularity。

【5】a考查冠詞。Relief 為可數(shù)名詞，前面需要加冠詞，a relief 譯一種慰藉。故填不定冠詞 a。

【6】privately考查副詞。所填 privately為副詞用來修飾形容詞 owned，所以需將形容詞private改為副詞形式。故填privately。

【7】have been built考查動詞。首先co-housing communities 與動詞build 之間為被動關系，所以改為be built, 其次，該句的時間狀語為in recent years，應該用現(xiàn)在完成時態(tài)， 故該空應為現(xiàn)在完成時的被動語態(tài)。故填have been built。

【8】where考查定語從句。該句可以轉寫為Residents shop, cook, and eat together in a co-housing complex place. 此空表示地點應該填where或者in which。故填where。

【9】with考查介詞。固定搭配play with sb. 與某人玩耍。故填with。

【10】less考查形容詞比較級。根據(jù)句意居民還說住在合租房屋比在公寓里花錢要少，該句對比了住在合租屋與公寓的優(yōu)勢，所以運用形容詞的比較級。故填less。
