【解析】短文大意：威尔逊夫人是一个有钱人的妻子，她邀请了自己一些朋友来享用午餐。她尝试新的方法烹调鱼，当做好鱼的时候威尔逊夫人感到非常高兴。那个下午，每个人都喜欢鱼。他们有说有笑，一直聊天聊到四点。客人离开后，威尔逊太太感到累了但是很快乐。
（1）句意：威尔逊夫人是一个有钱人的妻子，她邀请了自己一些朋友来享用午餐。根据后文可知该用一般过去时，所以答案是invited。
（2）句意：当做好鱼的时候威尔逊夫人感到非常高兴。本句的主语是she，它的反身代词是herself，她自己。所以答案是herself。
（3）句意：因为鱼很热，她把它放在开着的窗附近冷却几分钟。修饰名词作定语，应该用形容词形式，open，开着的。所以答案是open。
（4）句意：威尔逊夫人惊讶地发现隔壁的猫正开始吃鱼。be surprised to find sth.意为惊讶地发现某事，形容词surprised，惊讶的，惊奇的。所以答案是surprised。
（5）句意：她及时阻止猫，以免为时过晚。连词before，在……之前。所以答案是before。
（6）句意：她们开心地聊天，一直聊到四点。介词till/ until，直到。所以答案是till/ until。
（7）句意：客人离开以后，她觉得很累但也很开心。空白前后之间是转折关系，连词but，但是。所以答案是but。
（8）句意：那么朋友们将会发生什么呢？联系上下文可知该用过去将来时，will 的过去式would,所以答案是would。
（9）句意：夫人马上给家庭医生打电话求助，医生希望威尔逊夫人的朋友们都能过来让他看看。ask sb to do sth请某人做某事，所以答案是to meet。
（10）句意：它是被人开车撞死的，然后放在你的花园里。此处是被动语态，后面是动作的执行者。介词by ，被。所以答案是by。
