解析

试题分析：这篇短文是关于Paul的一次经历。Paul想回自己在意大利的老家，中途飞机在纽约机场加油时，Paul误以为到了罗马，所以他下了飞机。他在大街上看到的事物都不像意大利，而且那里的人都说英语，最终他发现自己是在纽约。
小题1:由下句话The plane made a one-hour stop to get oil at an airport in New York，飞机在纽约的一个机场停一个小时加油，可知Paul是做飞机回家。故填flew。
小题2:句意：Paul以为他到了罗马，所以他下了飞机。so 因此，所以。
小题3:句意：没有人来接他，他以为交通拥挤让他的朋友迟到了。heavy 指交通拥挤。
小题4:句意：他发现很多现代的建筑取代了原来的老的建筑。modern 现代的。
小题5:句意：他发现人们都说英语而不是意大利语，而且街道的标志都是用英语写的。written in English用英语写，过去分词做定语。
小题6:句意：他不会英语。little 几乎不。
小题7:句意：他碰巧遇到了一个出生在意大利的警察，用同样的语言回答了他的问题。language 这里是指意大利语。
小题8:句意：司机把他交给了另外一名警察。another 另一个。
小题9:句意：别人告诉他时他还不相信他是在纽约。believe 相信。
小题10:句意：为了能让他做飞机回意大利，一辆警车把他送到了机场。send 送。
