【解析】

本文为记叙文，文章主要介绍了John Snow 如何战胜霍乱的故事。

【1】考查时态。此句表示他如此出名，以至于曾经护理过维多利亚女王。根据结果状语的attended 可知是一般过去时，根据主语he 可确定用was。

【2】考查名词单复数。根据语境可知此处表示减轻她生孩子的痛苦，根据语境可知不是一个孩子，所以用babies。

【3】考查形容词，此处修饰disease，要用形容词，deadly表示致命的。

【4】考查定语从句。先行词为time，表示那时他看到很多人死于霍乱。从句缺时间状语，用关系副词when。

【5】考查固定短语。暴露于用expose。。。to，此处做定语修饰people。

【6】考查冠词，此处特指那些死去的人都生活在这里，所以用the。

【7】考查定语从句的连词。此处为定语从句，先行词为people，从句缺主语，所以用关系代词who/that。

【8】考查过去分词作定语，此处表示污染了的水，所以用polluted，作定语修饰water。

【9】考查现在分词作宾语。After 为介词，后加doing。

【10】考查被动语态。此处表示水源应该被检查，所以用be examined。

after用作连词，它引导的时间状语从句如果具有将来意义，往往要用一般现在时来表示(有时也用现在完成时)，而不能直接用一般将来时。如I’lltellhimafteryouleave.

after还可用作副词，意为“后来”或“(一段时间)以后”，通常要放在另一时间副词之后。如：Wearrivedsoon(或just/shortly)after.我们不久就到了

介词：表示在某一个时间点后，所以不与表示时间段的名词连用，后接名词或doing。

所以看到after 我们首先要判断其词性，然后根据词性判断其具体用法。
