【解析】

1.

句意：当你饿的时候，你只要指着自己的胃，他们就会带你去餐馆。

根据下文“you only have to point at your own stomach (肚子) and they will show you to a restaurant.”可知，这里是说当你指着你的胃，就能知道你是饿的。hungry形容词，饥饿的。故答案为hungry。

2.

句意：如果你累了，把手放在脑后，猴子会带你去旅馆。

根据下文“put your hands behind your head and the monkeys will take you to a hotel.”可知，猴子带你去旅馆，这里就是说如果你累了，或当你累了。这里是用when/if引导的从句。When当……时候；if如果。故答案为When/If。

3.

句意：当他们在服务你之后把手放在你面前时，不要惊讶。

after在这里是介词，在……之后；根据“when they put their hands in front of you”可知，这里是在帮助你或服务你之后，介词后加动名词。单词help帮助；serve动词，这里用动名词。故答案为helping/serving。

4.

句意：他们只是希望你能给他们一点钱作为小费。

根据下文“After they get the money, they'll wave(挥)their hands to say ___5___ .”可知，这里是猴子们希望你能给他们一点钱。这里用代词宾格。them代词，他们。动词后加代词宾格。故答案为them。

5.

句意：拿到钱后，他们会挥手告别。

根据上文“After they get the money”可知，这里是拿到前后，他们挥手告别。goodbye再见。故答案为goodbye。

6.

句意：他们在学校接受了一年的训练。

根据“they got trained”可知，他们训年一年的时间。这里是for+一段时间。故答案为for。

7.

句意：一些人现在正在一所美国医学院接受护士培训。

根据下文“These monkeys will ___8___ after patients(病人)in hospital after they graduate from school.”可知，这里是接受护士培训。nurse名词，护士。这里用复数形式。故答案为nurses

8.

句意：这些猴子从学校毕业后会照顾住院的病人。

根据下文“after they graduate from school.”及“Some are now being trained as ___7___ at an American medical college(医学院).”可知，这些猴子从学校毕业后悔照顾病人。短语look after…照看，照顾，will+动词原形。故答案为look。
