试题分析：短文大意：一个生病住院的女士看着病房外慢慢落下的秋叶，心生悲凉，打算在最后一片树叶落下后，也随落叶死去。一位老画家决定帮助她，并在黄叶全部落光的晚上，画了一片黄绿色的叶子挂在树上。第二天早上，当女士看到最后这片叶子，她对生活又充满了希望，她想要活着。从此，她的身体越来越好，并活了很多年。短文告诉我们：在任何时候都不要放弃希望。

1.B考查动词及语境理解。句意：她呆在医院里。A. played玩耍；B. stayed呆；C. studied学习； D. worked工作。从前句：A young woman was ill. （一位年轻女士生病了。）可以推测出，她生病呆在医院里。故选B。

2.A考查动词及语境理解。句意：她的病房外有一棵树。A. outside在外面；B. inside在里面； C. from离……，从……；D. under在下面。两个事物“树”、“病房”，容易推测出是树在病房外，故选A。

3.C考查动词及语境理解。句意：树上的叶子越来越少，女士非常伤心。A. glad 高兴；B.relaxed轻松；C. sad悲伤；D. interested感兴趣。从后句她不想吃、不想喝、不想说话可以推测出：她心里伤心，故选C。

4.D考查动词及语境理解。句意：医生叫她起来散步。A. fall asleep睡着；B. get ready准备；C. hurry up赶快；D. get up起床。主语是医生，并列的动作是“散步”，可以推测出是起床散步。故选D。

5.A考查动词及语境理解。句意：当最后一片树叶掉下时，我也要死去。A. too也，用于肯定句的句尾；太，用于形容词、副词之前；B. also也，常用于肯定句的句中；C. either也，用于否定句的句尾；两者之一，指两者之间的任何一个；D. neither两者都不。从语境可以推测出这里用“也”填空，这是一个肯定句，用too，故选A。

6.C考查动词及语境理解。句意：一天晚上，所有的黄叶都落下了。A. flowers花；B. plants植物；C. leaves树叶；D. trees 树。根据上文内容，可知这里指树叶全部落光了。故选C。
