【解析】

文章主要介绍了多年前一位漂亮的女士向一个贫穷的男孩提供了一杯牛奶，多年后这位女士得了重病，而那个贫穷的男孩已是一名著名的外科医生，男孩为女士治病还替女士付了昂贵的医药费作为回报的故事。

【1】句意：他太饿了，决定去乞讨一些吃的。

根据后句he decided to beg something to eat.他决定去乞讨一些吃的。可知这里表达的是“他太饿了”，英语中“饥饿”是hungry，故答案为hungry。

【2】句意：当他敲一所大房子的门时。

根据句意理解可知，这里表达的是“敲门”，英语是knock at the door，是一个固定短语，故答案为at。

【3】句意：但给了他一大杯牛奶。

根据后句a woman who had given him the glass of milk many years ago一位多年前给他喝过牛奶的女人。可知这里是女士给他一杯牛奶，故答案为milk。

【4】句意：她母亲教她善待他人。

根据句意理解可知，这里表达的是“别人”，英语是others，故答案为others。

【5】句意：著名的外科医生霍华德·凯利医生接到电话，检查一位多年前给他喝过牛奶的女人。

根据前句的in a big city, the famous surgeon可知，应该是“打电话给这位医生，请他给那位女士看病”而空格前有was，所以后面要用过去分词，故答案为called。

【6】句意：医生为这位妇女提供了最好的护理。

根据句意理解及后句After a long and difficult treatment可知，这里表达的是“提供”，再由句中的with可知。这里的结构是provide sb with sth，而整个故事是发生在过去，所以这里要用过去时，故答案为provided。

【7】句意：她担心巨额医药费。

根据前句After a long and difficult treatment经过长期艰苦的治疗之后可知，这里应该表示“担心巨额医药费”，英语中“对……担心”是be worried about，所以这里应该填worried，故答案为worried。

【8】句意：那女人正在遭受重病折磨。

根据前句 After a long and difficult treatment可知，这位女士正遭受着病痛折磨而空格前有be动词，所以后面应该接动词ing形式，而英语中表达“遭受……”可以用suffer，故答案为suffering。

【9】句意：凯利医生意识到她就是多年前给他喝牛奶的那个女人。

根据后句who had given him the glass of milk many years ago.可知，这是一个定语从句，此句是用来修饰前面的名词woman的，所以在这里woman是特指，所以前面要加定冠词the，故答案为the。

【10】句意：发现凯利医生已经自己付账了，并给她写了一张小纸条。

根据句意理解可知，这里表达的是“自己”，而句子主语是Dr. Kelly，是指的前文提到的那个男孩，所以这里应该是指代“他自己”，故答案为himself。
