Answer 1

答案：
解析：

1．not．常用搭配，not to mention意为“不必提及”。 　　2．of．介词。cure sb．of意思“治疗治愈”。 　　3．when．be＋doing＋sth．＋when…是一种常用句型，意为“某人正在做某事，这时(突然)…” 　　4．lying．lie与he之间存在主动关系，所以用其-ing形式。 　　5．to．固定搭配，turn to意为“求助于”。 　　6．it．考查代词，it做形式宾语，真正的宾语是后面由why引导的从句。 　　7．declared．考查动词过去分词，由doctor发出。 　　8．that．由于先行词被only修饰，所以只能用that，而不能用which。 　　9．another．由上下文中的a hard blow可知道，此处应是“(又)一次”的blow。 　　10．more．no＋比较级＋than结构，此句意思为“这仅仅是一场奇迹”。
