【解析】

試題分析：英國作家理查德 · 薩維奇，曾經窮困潦倒，餓病了。醫(yī)生給他看好了病他卻沒有診療費。不得已，那自己寫的書送給醫(yī)生2本，還開玩笑說把自己的命給了醫(yī)生，因為書的名字就叫Richard Savage的生平。

1.考查動詞辨析及對語境的理解。A get得到；B make使、制造；C earn掙得；D find發(fā)現。 英國作家Richard Savage曾經在倫敦生活得極度貧困。為了掙一點錢，他寫了他的生平故事，earn money是固定搭配，賺錢。故選C。

2.2】考查形容詞辨析及對語境的理解。A many修飾名詞復數；B much修飾不可數名詞；C all全部；D some一些。但是書在商店沒賣出的本數不太多。后面說：Savage勉強度日。所以書賣的數量不多。故選A。

3.3】考查形容詞辨析及對語境的理解。A sad傷心；B disappointed失望；C crazy瘋狂；D ill生病。由于缺乏食物他病得很厲害。后面提到醫(yī)生給他治病，故選D。

4.4】考查介詞辨析及對語境的理解。個選項與look構成短語。A look at看；B look after照顧；C look over調查；D look around環(huán)顧四周。在醫(yī)生的照料下，他的身體又恢復健康了。故選B。

5.5】考查冠詞辨析及對語境的理解。A a表數量一個，B an一，用于元音因素的詞前；C the 表特指；D /零冠詞。在一兩個星期后醫(yī)生送了一張賬單要看病的錢。故選A。

6.6】考查情態(tài)動詞辨析及對語境的理解。A didn’t，是一般過去時的助動詞；表過去的動作；B hadn’t沒有，后跟名詞或過去分詞，這里后面是動詞原形，不符合英語的習慣用法，所以排除；C couldn’t不能；D mustn’t禁止。但可憐的Savage沒有錢，付不了錢。根據語境理解可知選C。

7.7】考查代詞辨析及對語境的理解。A some 一些；用于肯定句中；B any任何，一些，用于否定句或疑問句中；C other其它的；D another另一個。醫(yī)生又等了一個月，再次把賬單寄了出去。但仍然沒有錢來了。故選D。

8.8】考查關系詞辨析及對語境的理解。A which那哪一個；B when什么時候；C that賓語從句的連接詞；D who誰。我感謝你救了我，為了向你證明我對你的救命之恩不是忘恩負義，我將把我的生命給你。動詞prove后跟了一個賓語從句，從句的主謂賓結構完整，所以用that只起連接作用。故選C。

9.9】考查介詞辨析及對語境的理解。A In在......內；B To對；向；C By通過；D With用、伴隨。說著這些話，他把自己寫的書2冊遞給了醫(yī)生。故選D。
