【2】who/that

【3】nearly

【4】gone

【5】with

【6】neither

【7】pointed

【8】In

【9】what

【10】surprised

【解析】

试题分析：本文主要讲述了一名法国人和一位意大利人之间因语言不通而发生的一个误会。

【1】a. 考查冠词。go out for a walk是固定短语，意为“出去散步”，故填a。

【2】who/that. 考查定语从句。句中包含定语从句，先行词是an Italian young man指人，关系词在从句中作主语，所以此处应用who或that引导这个定语从句。故填who/that。

【3】nearly.考查副词。句意：当那名法国人突然发现他的表没了的时候，那名年轻的意大利人几乎已消失在视野之中了。此处修饰out of sight，故填副词nearly。

【4】gone.考查形容词。由语境可知，此处应用形容词gone“丢失的”作宾语补足语，故填gone。

【5】with.考查固定短语。catch up with是固定短语，意为“追赶上”，故填with。

【6】neither.考查代词。此处指那名法国人和那名年轻的意大利人都不理解对方的语言，所以此处用neither，表示“两者都不”。故填neither。

【7】pointed.考查动词时态。根据本句中的“The Frenchman frightened the…and”可判断出，此处应用一般过去时，故填pointed。

【8】In.考查固定短语。in the end“最后”，故填In。

【9】what.考查宾语从句。语境表示，那名法国人告诉妻子刚发生的事。在这个宾语从句中缺少主语，用what引导宾语从句，what相当于“the thing that”。故填what。

【10】surprised. 考查形容词。语境表示那位法国人很惊讶，所以此处应用形容词surprised表示“感到惊讶的”，故填surprised。
