【解析】

試題分析： 40歲的時(shí)候，安東尼·伯吉斯知道自己患了腦瘤，會(huì)在一年內(nèi)死去。他總感覺(jué)自己具備小說(shuō)家的內(nèi)在潛質(zhì)。于是，他的唯一目標(biāo)就是為妻子留下版稅。伯吉斯把所有的精力都用在了寫作上。但是，伯吉斯沒(méi)有死。他的癌癥居然好轉(zhuǎn)了，后來(lái)完全不見(jiàn)了。

【1】would kill考查時(shí)態(tài)。句意：他患了腦瘤，這種病會(huì)使他在一年內(nèi)死去。根據(jù)句意可知用將來(lái)時(shí)態(tài)。主句had，所以應(yīng)用過(guò)去將來(lái)時(shí)。

【2】nothing考查不定代詞。句意：那時(shí)，他窮困潦倒，沒(méi)有任何東西可以留給他的妻子林恩。nothing什么也沒(méi)有。

【3】but考查連詞。前后兩句話之間是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，并且是兩個(gè)并列句，所以用but。

【4】leaving考查介詞用法。介詞后應(yīng)用動(dòng)名詞形式。

【5】whether考查連詞。根據(jù)句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知空格后為賓語(yǔ)從句。根據(jù)句意“他不知道他寫的東西是否會(huì)被出版”可知，應(yīng)填whether或if。從句中有or not，所以只能用whether。

【6】 It考查it用法。it可知指代時(shí)間，距離。

【7】to live考查非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。have sth to do有某事要做。是固定句型。

【8】the考查定冠詞用法。此處表示特指1960年。句意：在這一年之內(nèi)，他完成了五部小說(shuō)。

【9】magically考查副詞�？崭袂笆莿�(dòng)詞，所以用副詞修飾。

【10】which考查關(guān)系代詞。根據(jù)句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知從句是定語(yǔ)從句，從句中缺主語(yǔ)，先行詞指的是他寫了70多本書(shū)這件事，所以用which引導(dǎo)。
