【4】hid

【5】Another

【6】it

【解析】

【1】who 考查定语从句。先行词是man，定语从句缺少主语，先行词指人时用who/that作主语，故填who

【2】But 考查并列连词。富人想为镇上的人做些事情，但他想先试探一下镇上的人，看他们是否值得他伸出援手。前后是转折关系，故填But

【3】a 考查冠词。他在通往城镇的要道的中心放了一块大石头，a large stone一块大石头，故填a。

【4】hid 考查时态。and表并列，and连接两个动词作谓语，根据“and waited”可知，此处应填过去式，hide的过去式是hid，故填hid。

【5】Another 考查不定代词。another泛指三者以上的人或物中的一个，这里指“另一个人”，故填Another

【6】it 考查指示代词。根据“complained about the stone”可知，这里指代的是那块石头，故填it。

【7】saying 考查现在分词作伴随状语。he与say是主谓关系，用现在分词表示伴随状况，故填saying

【8】will be 考查时态。根据“Late in the afternoon”可知，现在是下午，指夜里发生的事情，应该用将来时，故填will be。

【9】strength 考查名词。strong是形容词，with后跟名词，strengthen力气，优点，那个年轻人用尽全力去搬开那块石头，故填strength。

【10】Under 考查介词。句意：那个人在石头下面发现了一袋钱。under在......下面，故填Under
