解析：
【分析】做完形填空时，首先需通读全文，理解文章主旨（本文围绕愚公移山的经典故事展开）；接着针对每个空格，结合语境、词义辨析、时态、固定搭配等知识逐一分析选项，排除不符合的答案；最后代入所选答案通读全文，验证语句通顺性与逻辑合理性。
【解析】1. 选项A“far away”后接名词需加介词from，选项B“between”后通常接可数名词复数，此处表示山在房子的前方，故选C。2. 由前文“房子前有两座大山”可知，人们出行太困难，too...to...为固定搭配，表“太……而不能……”，故选B。3. 全文叙述过去的故事，需用一般过去时，want的过去式为wanted，故选A。4. 移走大山在常人看来不可能，家人会认为愚公的想法愚蠢，故选B。5. keep doing sth是固定搭配，意为“一直做某事”，故选C。6. 坚持挖山，山会逐渐变小，故选C。7. 努力工作与感到开心之间是转折关系，用连词but，故选B。8. 朋友认为移山不可能，所以说“你不能移走这些山”，故选B。
