【解析】

这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Wilson夫人尝试了用一种新的方式做鱼，在开饭之前，鱼不小心被邻居家的猫吃了一些。后来，邻居家的猫死了，Wilson夫人很害怕。于是，通知吃了自己做的鱼的每个宾客去看医生。邻居打电话告知，自己家的猫死于车祸。原来是虚惊一场。

1.考查时态。整篇文章都使用的是一般过去时，所以填invited。

2.考查常见用法。句意：她急于尝试用一种新的方式做鱼。of是一个介词，介词后接v+ing形式，所以填cooking。

3.考查反身代词。句意：当菜做好后，她对自己非常满意。题干意思是“对她自己”，所以填herself。

4.考查不定式。句意：她惊奇地发现邻居家的猫在这道菜的旁边。题干中“发现邻居家的猫在这道菜的旁边”作原因状语，用不定式，所以填to find。

5.考查副词。句意：幸运的是，她及时进来，阻止了猫。修饰整个句子，用副词，所以填Fortunately。

6.考查冠词。句意：那天下午，是一个巨大的成功。泛指“一个巨大的成功”，great的首字母发音是辅音，所以填不定冠词a。

7.考查连词。句意：她感觉很累，但是却很开心。表示转折关系，所以填but。

8.考查形容词。句意：她坐在窗户旁，当她看到邻居拿着死去的猫时，她很害怕。该空需要填一个形容词，v+ing修饰物，而v+ed修饰人，所以填frightened。

9.考查形容词。形容词的主要功能是用作定语和表语，但有时也可用作状语（有人也称之为主语补足语，因为它们是补充说明主语的），所以填dead。

10.考查it的用法。代指前文已提到过的一件事物“the telephone”，所以填It。
