【解析】

本文講述了納撒尼爾·霍桑失業(yè)后，他在妻子的鼓勵和信任下，寫出美國文學上最偉大的小說之一《紅字》。從中我們可知一些著名的小說是在愛人或好友的一句鼓勵或一個自信的舉動之后發(fā)生的。

【1】句意：他告訴妻子索菲亞他失業(yè)了。

根據(jù)went home可知，此處用一般過去時，故填told。

【2】句意：令他驚訝的是，她高興地跟他說話。

to one’s surprise令某人驚訝的是，故填To。

【3】句意：她高興地說：“現(xiàn)在你可以寫你的書！”

修飾動詞said用副詞，故填happily。

【4】句意：當你有工作時，你沒有時間寫你正在思考的事。

此處作為動詞短語write down的賓語從句，thinking about后面缺少賓語，故填what。

【5】句意：盡管我們可能有一段困難的時間，我的確相信你通過寫作可以有所作為。

此處表示你將來會有所作為，用一般將來時，故填will make。

【6】句意：但是我寫書時，我們靠什么生活？

根據(jù)what shall we live on，謂語用現(xiàn)在時，while引導的時間狀語從句用現(xiàn)在進行時，故填am writing。

【7】句意：所以，每周我從你給我的日常使用的錢里，攢下一點。

此處引導定語從句修飾money，故填that。

【8】句意：現(xiàn)在這些錢能幫助我們過一年。

作為動詞help的賓語，用賓格形式，故填us。

【9】句意：在她的信任和信心下，美國文學上最偉大的小說之一《紅字》誕生了。

one of the+形容詞的最高級+名詞復(fù)數(shù)形式，表示最……的……之一，故填the greatest。

【10】句意：一些著名的小說是在愛人或好友的一句鼓勵或一個自信的舉動之后發(fā)生的。

有some修飾，用復(fù)數(shù)名詞，故填stories。
