解析：
【小题1】考查动词时态。故事发生在过去，根据上下文可知应该用过去将来时。
【小题2】考查词形变化。Be动词后面接形容词作表语。
【小题3】考查过去分词作宾补。 Had a calm lake painted使平静的湖被画上。
【小题4】考查代词。 One…the other…
【小题5】考查倒装。 Above 副词放句首，需要完全倒装， 从上下文可知，故事发生在过去，所以用过去式。
【小题6】考查词形变换。形容词变副词，用来修饰动词 looked。
【小题7】考查非谓语动词。现在分词后置定语，bush和grow 是主谓关系，用现在分词。
【小题8】考查冠词。前文中出现过bird, 表特指，故用the。
【小题9】考查定语从句。先行词为reason, 后面句子完整，故填关系副词why。
【小题10】考查表语从句。表语从句中缺表语，填what。
