试题分析：本文简要介绍了美国总统罗斯福的医生，他年轻时因为疾病失去双腿，靠着自己艰苦努力成为美国历史上任期最长的总统，最后死于第四个总统任期。

1.联系下文three years,可知选介词for，在表示时间时，for后面接一段时间。

2.结合语境可知本文描述的是过去发生的动作，故谓语动词用过去形式，联系下文law(法律)，可知此处指的是他学习了法律，结合所给选项，可知填studied，学习。

3.联系上下文，可知前后是转折关系，故填转折连词However，然而，可是。注意首字母大写。

4.联系下文可知他再也不能走了。联系前文any，可知填more，短语not……any more不再。

5.联系下文at home 可知此处指的是呆在家里面，本句中of是介词，后面接名词或者动名词做宾语，结合所给选项可知填动名词staying，呆，停留，作介词宾语。

6.联系下文his speech ，可知是在他的讲话里面，结合所给选项，可知填介词in，在里面。

7.罗斯福的一句名言就是：我们唯一应该恐惧的就是恐惧本身。结合所给选项，可知填反身代词itself。

8.联系下文及史实，可知罗斯福的总统任期比其它任何总统的任期都要长，结合所给选项，可知填long的比较级longer，更长的。

9.联系下文the people of the United States 可知此处指的是领导美国人民，结合语境可知本文描述的是过去发生的动作，故谓语动词用过去形式，结合所给选项，可知填lead的过去式led，领导。

10.结合语境及史实可知，罗斯福死于他的第四届任期开始时，根据前文定冠词the及下文介词of，可知填begin的名词形式beginning，起点，开始。

考点：短文中词汇短语的运用能力

点评：选词填空一直是英语考试中的难点，得分率比较低。解答此类题型的方法一般就是根据文章前后句子之间意思推断出词义，结合所给单词判断出所缺单词，然后根据该单词在句子中的句子成分，所起作用，进行适当词形变化。另外，此类题型也适用于排除法。即先完成较为简单的选项，将一时没有把握的选项留待最后再来完成。
