【解析】

本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了这样一个故事。一位老人给他的儿子留下了一大笔钱，但儿子很快就花光了所有的钱，他向纳斯雷金求助，答案确是：你很快就会习惯贫穷，而且没有朋友。

【1】句意：他很快就花光了所有的钱。

根据句意可知第一个空选spend，意为“花费”，根据前后时态一致原则，则应填入spend的过去式spent。

【2】句意：很快就一无所有了。

根据前半句“他花掉了所有的钱”，可知后半句“以至于不久他（没有一点）钱剩下”第二空缺少“没有一点”的意思，故选nothing。

【3】句意：我的钱已经花完了，我的朋友们也离开了。

“My money has been used up”译为“我的钱已经花光了”，根据这句以及前文意思，不难知道后半句想说“我的朋友已经离开了”，故第三空应选leave，由于后半句需要表达“已经离开”，一直到现在还有影响，故用现在完成时，即“have left”根据前半句也能推敲出用现在完成时，但由于句意没有被动的意思，故不用被动语态。应填have left。

【4】句意：一切很快就会恢复正常的。

根据“soon”则知本句要用将来时态，且本句缺少动词，“be right”意为“会好的”，用“have”句意不通，故第四空用will be。

【5】句意：我的意思是你很快就会习惯贫穷，而且没有朋友。

根据get used to doing sth. 可知应用doing形式，且前面“being”已提示应用doing形式，故第五空应填having。
