【解析】

本文讲述的是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.句意：她没有孩子。她丈夫5年前去世了。她感到孤独。

根据上文“She had no children. Her husband died 5 years ago.”可知，下文是她感到孤单，这里是内心的孤独寂寞，这里用lonely，alone是孤单的，独孤的。故答案为lonely。

2.句意：她看到了叶子落下。

根据下文“here was a tree outside her room.”可知，她看到叶子落下。短语see sb. do sth.看到某人做某事；这里是过去式用see的过去式saw。根据题意，故答案为saw。

3.句意：她不想吃不想喝，也不想说话。

根据上文“She didn’t want to eat or drink”可知下文是她不想交谈。这里是过去式，要借助助动词did+not+动词原形。根据题意，故答案为didn't want。

4.句意：医生让她起来散散步。

短语ask sb. to do sth.表示让我们去做某事；短语get up起床。根据题意，故答案为to get。

5.句意：她有强烈的死亡感。

根据下文“One day she said, “When the last leaf falls down, I___6___(die),too.”可知，这里是说一股强烈的死亡感觉。这里用feel的动名词feeling，根据题意，故答案为feeling。

6.句意：当最后一片叶子掉下来的时候，我也会死。

这里是when引导的时间状语从句，遵循主句用一般将来时，从句用一般现在时态，主语用一般将来时，这里用will+动词原形。根据题意，故答案为will die。

7.句意：他决定帮助他那位女士。

短语decide to do sth.决定去做某事；根据题意，故答案为to help。

8.句意：一天晚上，所有的黄叶都掉了下来。

all所有的，后加名词复数。leaf名词，树叶。这里用复数形式。故答案为leaves。

9.句意：从那时起，她变得越来越好，活了很长时间。

根据下文“and lived a long time.”可知，这里是说会变得越来越来越好。这里用good的比较级是better。根据题意，故答案为better。

10.句意：任何时候都不要放弃你的希望。

Don’t+动词原形；这里是否定祈使句。短语give up放弃。根据题意，故答案为give。
