【分析】
本题为英语完形填空，需结合固定搭配、语法规则（时态、词性变化等）及语境填空。解题思路：1. 第1空考查固定搭配“at night”；2. 第2空描述过去某时刻正在进行的动作，用过去进行时；3. 第3空修饰动词需用副词；4. 第4空修饰名词用形容词性物主代词；5. 第5空与并列动词时态一致，用一般过去时；6. 第6空考查固定搭配“ask sb to do sth”；7. 第7空前有数词“two”，名词用复数；8. 第8空特指某栋楼，用定冠词；9. 第9空连接因果关系；10. 第10空由“than”提示用比较级；最后词汇拓展需判断destroy的词性和词义。
【解析】
1. 固定搭配“at night”表示“在晚上”，故填at；
2. 开门时父亲正在睡觉，用过去进行时（was/were+doing），主语father为单数，故填was sleeping；
3. 修饰动词短语“got up”，需用quick的副词形式quickly，故填quickly；
4. 修饰名词“phone”，用he的形容词性物主代词his，故填his；
5. 与后面的“stopped”并列，时态为一般过去时，knock的过去式为knocked，故填knocked；
6. 固定搭配“ask sb to do sth”意为“要求某人做某事”，故填to call；
7. 数词“two”后接可数名词复数，woman的复数为women，故填women；
8. 特指火灾发生的那栋楼，用定冠词the，故填the；
9. 前后为因果关系，前因后果，故填so；
10. 由“than”可知用形容词比较级，calm的比较级为calmer，故填calmer；
词汇拓展：destroy是动词，意为“毁灭；破坏”。
【答案】
1. at 2. was sleeping 3. quickly 4. his 5. knocked 6. to call 7. women 8. the 9. so 10. calmer
