【解析】

试题分析：文章讲述一个有钱人想帮助别人，但是想看看这些人值不值得帮助，所以他把一块大石头放在路中间试探人们。

【1】who 考查定语从句。there lived是句子的谓语动词，所以后面是一个定语从句，a rich man是先行词，定语从句中缺主语，故填who。

【2】But 考查连词。前面说“这个有钱人想帮助他镇里的人们。”下面说“首先他想弄清楚是否他们值得帮助”。前后联系可知此处表示转折，故填But。

【3】a 考查冠词。泛指一块大石头，a large stone，所以此处填a。

【4】hid 考查一般过去时。hide和waited并列，所以hide用过去式，他藏在一棵树后面等。故填hid。

【5】Another 考查固定用法。前面提到有一个人过来了，他绕过这块石头，继续赶路，此处表达又来了一个人，并且做了同样的事情。泛指另一个人，故填Another。

【6】it 考查代词。it代指前文提到的事物，再次提到用代词代替，以避免重复。故用it。

【7】saying 考查现在分词。saw是谓语动词，所以后面的say是非谓语动词，用现在分词表示伴随状态，故填saying。

【8】will be 考查一般将来时。从后面“一些邻居晚些时候将会从这里走过，将会被绊倒”，可知此处用一般将来时态“晚上将会很黑”。故填will be。

【9】strength 考查名词。他用尽全力推拉这块石头。his是形容词性物主代词，后面用名词，strong是形容词，故填其名词形式strength（力气、力量）。

【10】to find 考查固定结构。only to do表示“结果……”，表示意料之外的结果，故填to find。
