答案与解析
1．happened由时间状语the other day可知，此处应该用动词的一般过去时。

2．a此处泛指一个可怕的故事，故用不定冠词a。

3．be used to表示“过去常常”的意思时，其后面常接动词原形。

4．because分析句子结构可知，空格处应填入连词。

祖父战后没有回家与家里人都以为他在战争中牺牲了之间构成了因果关系，故此处应该用because。

5．had been killed kill这个动作发生在didn't return home之前，因此此处需要用过去完成时，并且此处应是“被杀害”。

6．selling man与sell是主动关系，故用其ing形式。

7．who/that先行词是his grandfather，空格后面的从句中缺少宾语，故用who/that引导定语从句。

8．naturally在此处naturally为副词，修饰整个句子。

9．whether/if whether/if为连词，在此引导宾语从句。

10．everything根据上下文可知，此处意为“此后所有的事情就像电影里演的一样”。

everything表示“每件事；一切”。
