【解析】

这个故事讲述的是从前有一个国王，他只有一条腿、一只眼睛。他想让画家给他作画，这样他的孩子们以后才能记得他。很多画家不知道该如何作画，只有一个聪明的画家做到了。故事告诉我们要多关注别人的优点，还有对每件事要采取乐观的态度。

【1】句意：从前有一个国王。

根据句中的Once upon a time“从前”可知，这个故事说的是很久以前的事情，应用一般过去时态。主语为a king是单数形式，be动词用was。故答案为was。

【2】句意：因为这个国王每个人都过着幸福、健康的生活。

health健康，是一个名词。空后life是名词，意为“生活”，这个空应用形容词形式，与前面的happy并列，修饰同一个名词life。health的形容词为healthy，“健康的”。故答案为healthy。

【3】句意：一天，国王走过宫殿的走廊，看到了祖先的画像。

paint画画，是一个动词。由空前的the和后面的of可知，这里应用名词形式。paint的名词是painting。空后ancestors是复数，因此画像也应用复数。故答案为paintings。

【4】句意：因此他邀请了很多出名的艺术家来到他的宫殿。

art美术，艺术。根据上文 “He thought that one day his children would also walk in the same hallway and remember all the ancestors through these paintings. He wanted his children to remember him, too.”可知，国王是向让美术家给他画像，好让他的孩子记住他。因此这里应将art变为artist“艺术家”，空前有many修饰，应用名词复数。故答案为artists。

【5】句意：那是不可能的。

possible可能的，是一个形容词。根据上文 “He only had one leg and one eye”可知，这个国王只有一条腿、一只眼，因此想让画像非常美丽是不可能的。这里应填反义词impossible。故答案为impossible。

【6】句意：因此他们一个个地开始礼貌地拒绝为国王画像。

make制作，是一个动词。空前动词为refuse，意为“拒绝”，常用于句型refuse to do sth.“拒绝做某事”，这里应用动词不定式形式。故答案为to make。

【7】句意：但是突然一个艺术家举起手说他可以画出一幅国王的好画。

sudden突然的，是一个形容词。由句子结构可知，该空修饰后面整句话的内容，应用副词形式。故答案为suddenly。

【8】句意：当画家把画拿出来展示时，每个人都震惊了。

shock可以作动词或名词，意为“震惊，使震惊”。由句子结构可知，该空放在系动词was后作表语，应用形容词形式。且这里表示“人感到震惊”，应用shocked。故答案为shocked。

【9】句意：国王非常高兴，给了他很多钱。

he他，人称代词主格形式。根据句子结构可知，该空是动词gave的宾语，应用宾格形式。he的宾格形式是him。故答案为him。

【10】句意：所以我们应该试着关注别人的优点而不是缺点。

try尽力，尝试，是一个动词。空前should是情态动词，后面跟动词原形。故答案为try。

这个题目是用所给单词的适当形式填空，考查单词在具体语境中的用法。这些单词放在了一篇短文中，因此做题时，首先应把短文读一遍，了解文章的大意；然后分析句子结构，从单词在句中的作用以及句中使用的句型、时态等方面考虑，变化单词的形式。例如第2小题，所给单词health健康，是一个名词。空后life是名词，意为“生活”，这个空应用形容词形式，与前面的happy并列，修饰同一个名词life。health的形容词为healthy，“健康的”。故答案为healthy。再如第8小题，shock可以作动词或名词，意为“震惊，使震惊”。由句子结构可知，该空放在系动词was后作表语，应用形容词形式。且这里表示“人感到震惊”，应用shocked。故答案为shocked。shocking也是形容词，用来修饰物，表示“令人震惊的”。
