Answer 1

小题1:poorly,
小题2:where,
小题3:sitting,
小题4:ate,
小题5:honest
小题6:waiting,
小题7:shocked,
小题8:Unfortunately,
小题9:free,
小题10:that

试题分析：
小题1:poorly, 本句中使用副词修饰dressed；形成一个复合的形容词短语poorly dressed修饰名词gentleman.
小题2:where, 本句是一个宾语从句，作为动词know的宾语。指没有人知道他是谁，也不知道他来自那里。
小题3:sitting, 介词after后面要接动名词做宾语。
小题4:ate, 本句的ate和前半句的stared形成并列关系，都使用一般过去时的时态、
小题5:honest 固定搭配to be honest老实说；
小题6:waiting, 固定搭配：mind doing sth介意做某事。动词mind后面要接动名词的形式、
小题7:shocked, 本句中的形容词shocked是由动词shock转换而来，对人或者与人有关的事物进行修饰。
小题8:Unfortunately, 本句使用副词unfortunately做状语对整个句子的情况进行修饰限制。
小题9:free, 上下文串联。根据前句we could not change the bank note as it was too large可知他的钞票面额太大，我们找不开。所以只好免费请他吃饭了。
小题10:That固定句式in the hope that…希望…；后面引导的宾语从句。
点评：答题中注意句子中人称和数是否一致，时态是否一致。各种词性之间的区别以及一些常用句型，固定短语的应用。一般的这类题型不会出现太复杂的单词和句子，这类题型考查的就是我们的基础知识。平时应注重积累，熟记一些句型及惯用结构。
