【解析】

本題應該先整體的通讀文段，然后再通讀需要填空的問句，聯系上下文分析得出答案。

1.通讀短文之后，可以注意到這個句子：Finally he sold the farmhouse and bought a small modern______（最后他賣了這個農場住宅，然后買了一個小的現代……）由此可知是他買的farmhouse而不是借的。bought是買buy的過去式。故答案為：A。

2. 聯系生活實際（Mr. Wilson was too old to work.威爾遜先生已經太老而不能工作了。）利用排除法知：他希望過平靜的生活。A 快樂的、B 富裕的、C 簡單的都不符合該短文。quiet意思是安靜的,故答案為：D。

3. ____3____ was 400 years old and it was ____4____ building in the village.這句話中的it應該是指代3。從后面的敘述可以看出，it指的就是老人所買的farmhouse。因此橫線3處應該填的是The farmhouse：這個農場住宅已經400歲了, 故答案為：D。

4.從后文中的描述：____5____ people came to see it every day. They looked ____6____ the windows and even ____7____ the garden.（人們每天來看這個住宅，他們通過窗子看甚至進到花園里。）可以知道，它是這個村里最有趣的建筑。interesting是有趣的，最高級是在單詞前加the most，故答案為：B。

5.此題可以運用排除法。每天……人來看它，選項A是一些，選項B是數百名，選項C是全部，選項D是不，故答案為：B。

6.本句意思應該是：他們從窗戶觀察。look into詞組意思是觀察、窺視，故答案為：B。

7.此題可以運用排除法。選項A是照顧，選項B是打電話，選項C是走進，選項D是支付， 故答案為：C。

8.此題考查對情態(tài)動詞的掌握。威爾遜先生很生氣，但他不能做什么。表示能力用情態(tài)動詞can。由was可知，此處應用過去式could，故答案為：C。

9. 聯系上下文，本句意思應該是：他賣了這座農舍，買了一個現代的房子。當一個句子中第二次提到前面相同的名詞時，可用one代替，故答案為：D。

10. 聯系上下文，本句意思應該是：它沒有意思，也就沒人想要去看它。選項A是喜歡，選項B是希望，選項C是想要，選項D是祝愿，故答案為：C。
