请认真阅读下面短文,填入一个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Bill has lots of money. But he never helps 1. others(other), so people don't like him. One day, Bill says to them, “I know you don't like me. 2. To make(make) all of you happy, I'll give
you everything I have when I die.” But no one believes him. Bill doesn't 3. know(know) why.
One evening, Bill hears a pig and a cow 4. talking(talk) when he goes for a walk.
The pig says to the cow, “Why does everyone like you and no one 5. likes(like) me? After I die, I give three or four 6. things(thing) to people, but you only give one thing—milk.”
The cow says, “I give them milk when I'm alive. They think I am generous with what I have. I'm really kind 7. to them. But you don't give them anything 8. before you die. You give them something only after you die. People don't believe in the future. They only believe in the present. If you give when you 9. are(be) alive, people will like you.”
After that, Bill tries to help 10. the poor every day.

答案： 1. others 考查代词。根据后面的集合名词 people 可知，此处说的是 Bill 从来不帮助其他人，所以 other 应该用复数形式 others。
2. To make 考查不定式。根据句意可知，此处要用动词不定式表示目的，且句首单词首字母大写，故此处答案应该填 To make。
3. know 考查动词。此处 doesn't 是助动词 does 的否定形式，其后要用动词原形，故此处答案应该填 know。
4. talking 考查固定搭配。根据后面的连词 when 可知，当 Bill 散步的时候，他听到猪和奶牛正在聊天。动词短语 hear sb. doing sth. 意思是“听到某人正在做某事”，所以此处答案应该填 talking。
5. likes 考查时态和主谓一致。根据 Why does everyone like you 可知，此处应用一般现在时，且此处的主语 no one 是第三人称单数，故谓语动词要用第三人称单数形式 likes。
6. things 考查名词的数。根据前面的 three or four 可知，后面的名词要用复数形式 things。
7. to 考查介词。be kind to sb. 意思是“对某人好”，故此处答案应该填介词 to。
8. before 考查连词。根据后文中的 after 可知，猪仅仅在死后给人们某些东西，由此推知，猪在死之前不给人们任何东西，故此处答案应该填连词 before。
9. are 考查时态和主谓一致。根据上下文时态可知，此处应用一般现在时，且主语是 you，所以 be 动词要用 are。
10. the 考查冠词。“the + 形容词”表示一类人，故此处答案应该填定冠词 the。
