【解析】

【语篇导读】本文主要讲述了一对法国夫妇去意大利旅游，法国人以为一个意大利人偷了自己的手表的幽默故事。

【1】后面为名词，此处表示＂意大利的＂，应用形容词，故填Italian。

【2】根据上下文语境可知需用一般过去时。

【3】out of sight意为＂消失在视野中＂。

【4】他的手表不见了。过去分词gone作形容词，意为＂不见了，失踪了＂。

【5】it在此作形式主语。

【6】decide to do sth. 意为＂决定做某事＂。

【7】这个法国人和意大利人互相不懂对方的语言。neither指＂两者都不＂。

【8】while doing表示＂同时做……＂，此句型省略了主语和be动词。逻辑主语the Frenchman与动词point之间为主动关系，故填pointing。

【9】what引导宾语从句，并作从句的主语，这里指＂那个法国人告诉他妻子发生的事＂。

【10】此处应用副词作状语来修饰形容词surprised。
