【分析】
本题为英语基础表达补全题，需结合中文提示，运用所学的英语固定句型、短语及语法知识补全句子。解题时先定位每句中文对应的英文核心表达，再匹配正确的句型结构（如there lived句型、it作形式主语的不定式结构等），注意时态、单复数及固定搭配的准确性。
【解析】
1. “从前，有一位名叫愚公的老人”对应英语中“there lived + 名词 + called”的经典句型，故填there lived an old man called；
2. “使他出门很不方便”需用“it is + adj + for sb to do sth”结构，“不方便”对应difficult，“出门”对应go out，故填difficult for him to go out；
3. “嘲笑”是固定短语laugh at，结合过去式用laughed at；“你太老了，移不了山”对应too old to move the mountains（too...to结构表否定），故填laughed at; too old to move the mountains；
4. “我的孩子和孙子会继续”是一般将来时，对应my children and my grandchildren will continue；
5. “日复一日”是固定短语day after day；
6. “有志者，事竟成”是英语谚语where there is a will, there is a way。
【答案】
1. there lived an old man called
2. difficult for him to go out
