【解析】

试题分析：短文描述了杯弓蛇影的故事。在墙上挂着一张红色的弓。它的影子正好在杜宣的杯子中。他认为这是蛇的影子。他是害怕的，但是，他没有没礼貌地拒绝。他闭着眼睛喝下这杯酒。当他返回家的时候，他感觉如此的虚弱，以至于他不能吃和喝了。

1.1】细节理解题。分析句意：在墙上挂着一张红色的弓。它的影子正好在杜宣的杯子中。联系实际，古代的弓都是挂在墙上的，因此运用动词hang.过去的事情要用一般过去时。故选hung

2.2】细节理解题。分析句意：他认为这是蛇的影子。他是害怕的，但是，他没有没礼貌地拒绝。他闭着眼睛喝下这杯酒。联系下文，喝酒之后，他生病了，明确他当时是很害怕的。故选frightened

3.with

4. … any more不再。否定词为hardly.故选hardly

5.medicine

6.When

7.but

8. 故选Suddenly

9. but 除……之外，什么也没有。故选nothing

10. 故选what
