There are dozens of stones which look different in height. The stones came 8. about 200 kilometres away. Some of the stones are missing now. It is a wonder also because 9. this question: How did ancient people move these huge stones without machines to help them? No one knows the answer.

【分析】
要完成语篇填空，需结合语境和语法规则逐一分析每个空：
1. 第6空后是形容词最高级most famous，根据英语语法，形容词最高级前需加定冠词the；
2. 第7空所在结构为“a place + 不定式”，不定式作后置定语修饰place，表用途，故用to；
3. 第8空考查固定搭配“come from”，意为“来自”，符合描述石头来源的语境；
4. 第9空后是名词短语this question，需用because of（后接名词类成分），故填of；
5. 第10空是there be句型的一般疑问句，主语为复数名词短语，be动词用Are且句首大写。
【解析】
6. 形容词最高级前需加定冠词the，“one of the + 形容词最高级 + 名词复数”是固定结构，此处表示“最著名的（历史遗址）之一”，故填the。
7. 不定式to bury作后置定语，修饰名词place，说明该场所的用途（埋葬死者），故填to。
8. 固定短语come from表示“来自”，句意为“这些石头来自大约200公里外”，符合语境，故填from。
9. because of后接名词、代词或动名词构成原因状语，此处后接名词短语this question，故填of。
10. 该句是there be句型的一般疑问句，主语any ancient wonders为复数，be动词用are，且位于句首需大写，故填Are。
