【解析】

本文是一篇記敘文。Mr. Johnson擁有一個幾乎廢棄的農場，靠一頭奶牛謀生。一大雨奶牛摔死，約翰遜開始種植草藥和蔬菜。當收獲來臨的時候，他突然想到，他的農場有很大的潛力。

【1】考查不定冠詞。句意：他擁有一個農場，它看起來幾乎快要廢棄了。結合句意可知答案為a。

【2】考查副詞。副詞修飾整個句子，故答案為Luckily。

【3】考查一般過去時態(tài)的被動語態(tài)。句意：他在附近的城鎮(zhèn)出售或交換了一些牛奶，以獲得其他食物，并用剩下的為家里做了奶酪和黃油。With后面是what引導的賓語從句；what指的是milk（不可數名詞），在賓語從句中充當主語，和leave（剩下）之間是被動關系，所以此處用一般過去時態(tài)的被動語態(tài)，故答案為was left。

【4】考查固定句式。句意：一天，奶牛正在吃草，這時候天開始下大雨。was/were doing sth.---when---，正在做某事，這時候---，故答案為when。

【5】考查現在分詞做狀語。句意：她在努力逃跑的時候，倒在了山上，死了。此處she和make之間是主動關系，這里是現在分詞做時間狀語，故答案為making。

【6】考查介詞。句意：然后，約翰遜試圖在沒有奶牛的情況下謀生。結合句意答案為without。

【7】考查時態(tài)。句意：約翰遜開始種植草藥和蔬菜。根據整篇文章可知句子用一般過去時態(tài)，故答案為began。

【8】考查動詞不定式。句意：由于這些植物生長需要花費一段時間，他開始砍伐樹木來賣木材。此處是動詞不定式做目的狀語，故答案為to sell。

【9】考查定語從句。句意：當收獲來臨的時候，他已經在鎮(zhèn)上的人經常見面的市場上賣草藥、蔬菜和棉花。此處the market是先行詞，分析句子結構，the market在后面的定語從句中做地點狀語，故答案為where。

【10】考查人稱代詞。句意：現在他突然想到，他的農場有很大的潛力，而牛的死也是有點運氣。固定句式：It occurred to sb. that---，某人突然想起，故答案為him。
