【解析】

试题分析：

【1】根据and前后表并列，upset是形容词可知，横线处填形容词，且修饰人，故填annoyed。

【2】he teacher told them both to stay．School老师让他们放学后留下，故填after。

【3】the teacher did not know young Ford’s genius但是，老师不知道Ford的天赋，故填But。。

【4】上文出现过的事物，再次提到时，应该使用定冠词the，故填the。。

【5】根据文意可推断此处说的是“东西是怎样工作的，work不及物”，不需要宾语，故填how。

【6】这里指代the spout，特指某物用it，故填it。。

【7】宾语从句的时态与主句保持一致，根据waited可知，宾语从句应该使用过去将来时，故填would happen。

【8】在英语中，turn into/to是固定搭配，意思是“变成”，句意是：水变成了蒸汽，故填to/into。。

【9】根据文意可知，Ford伤得很重，修饰形容词injured应该使用副词，故填badly。

【10】这里指代上一句的“a horseless carriage”，泛指可数名词中的一个，用one，故填one。
