解析：

(1)

第一段中單詞sand和water給予提示，可以推斷出Leroy Columbo在海灘上行走．另外第二段第一句也出現(xiàn)了beach．

(2)

Leroy和在陽光下沐浴的人們點頭微笑，但他總是警惕地注視著海面．前后轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系，選However．

(3)

deaf的根據(jù)在后面一句：He couldn't hear cried for help．

(4)

因為耳聾，他不得不依靠他的視覺。客觀原因所迫，選had to．

(5)

耳聾但是個海上救生員，他只有擁有敏銳的觀察力才能做到，因此選用notice表示他仔細(xì)觀察。

(6)

B選項的sportsman明顯與文中所說的lifeguard不符，view：視野，指用特殊的方式觀看事物或有目的地進(jìn)行觀察；從（特定處看到的）景色，例如：the view from the fop of a church tower（從教堂塔頂看到的景色）；a room with a view（看出去景色美麗的房間）。sight：“情景，奇觀”，用復(fù)數(shù)形式，意為“名勝，風(fēng)景”，強調(diào)看到處于視野以內(nèi)或視力可極的東西。如：see the sights of the West Lake（游覽西湖風(fēng)景）。scene：“景象，風(fēng)光”，如scenes of mountain district（山區(qū)風(fēng)光）。

(7)

海上救生員，當(dāng)然是救被淹的人。

(8)

上文提到他是耳聾，本句追述他失去聽力的年紀(jì)。

(9)

16歲時，因父親去世。他不得不輟學(xué)幫助家庭維持生計。

(10)

an expert swimmer意為一個游泳好手，因此方能當(dāng)救生員。

(11)

根據(jù)上下文可擬斷出Leroy是加入俱樂部，不是組織或創(chuàng)建俱樂部。join的意思是參加一種組織，并成為其中一員。

(12)

加入俱樂部要被測試，這從后面一句He had to swim three hours without stopping中可以看出來。

(13)

俱樂部接受用accept

(14)

他必須不停地游三個小時，甚至不能浮在水面上或仰泳來休息。故用even．

(15)

仰泳為swim on his back．而游三個小時的姿式會是蛙泳或蝶泳。仰泳較少花力氣，所以不能通過仰泳休息。

(16)

本題四個詞組都可按動名詞作賓語，但意思各不相同。go into doing：參加一組織，尤其是為職業(yè)，從事；goon doing：繼續(xù)做某事；give up doing：放棄做某事；insist on doing：堅持做某事。Leroy雖然游泳很棒，但從來沒有參加過訓(xùn)練．參加訓(xùn)練用go into為合適。

(17)

Leroy從來沒有參加過訓(xùn)練來獲取獎金，相反，他利用自己的游泳技術(shù)來救人。

(18)

時間狀語從句，用when引導(dǎo)，while后從句不用非延續(xù)性動詞。

(19)

在葬禮上，人們常用默哀來寄托哀思。所以本句為常識題。

(20)

in one's memory意為紀(jì)念某人

There are a few memories from our childhood that will stay with us forever. A few that seemed so    36    at the time may cause us to smile years later.

     One such memory is a phone call I    37    when I was about three or four years old. My mother had entered a contest on a local    38    show. Entrants（參加者）were to tell an interesting story about their    39   . Winners would receive a phone call from Mrs. Santa Claus（女圣誕老人）! Mrs. Claus would award（獎勵） the lucky child free    40    of a local store.

     Well, the call came. My mother talked to Mrs. Claus and then    41    the phone to me. I didn’t    42    the fact that many people were listening to our conversation. However, the fact that this lady had a    43    connection to Santa, that was important.

     I didn’t know it yet, but my mother had    44    the attention of the contest judges by telling about the time I had    45    a wall with crayons（蠟筆）. Even I knew that this was not the kind of    46    that Santa would approve.

     Suddenly, in a very pleasant tone（語氣）of    47   , Mrs. Santa Claus asked me about my art work. I    48    that this lady was the real Mrs. Claus, not a radio station actress standing in for her.

     I    49    down the phone and ran crying from the room. My crime（罪行）had not    50    unpunished. Santa would    51    know that I’d been bad!

     It turned out that I did get a    52    present from the radio station and its sponsor（贊助商）. And I guess Santa didn’t find out about the wall. Maybe he did and was in a    53    mood. In any case, my Christmas presents did not    54    a piece of coal（煤）.

I recently heard a story about a famous scientist who had made several very important medical breakthroughs. He was being interviewed by a reporter who asked him    36   he thought he was able to be so much more    37   than the average person.

He    38   that it all came from a(n)   39   with his mother that occurred when he was about 2. He had been trying to remove milk from the fridge when he    40   the slippery(光滑的) bottle, its contents running all over the kitchen floor.

When his mother came in,    41   shouting at him or giving him a lecture, she said, "Robert, what a great and wonderful    42   you have made! I have    43   seen such a huge pool of milk. Well, the damage has already been    44  . Would you like to get down and    45   in the milk for a few minutes before we clean it up?"

Indeed, he did. After a few minutes, his mother said, "Robert, whenever you make a mess like this, eventually you have to    46   everything to its proper order. So, how would you like to do that? We could use a sponge(海綿), a towel or a mop. Which do you prefer?" He chose the sponge.

His mother then said, "You know, what we have here is a    47   experiment in how to effectively carry a big milk bottle with two    48   hands. Let's go out in the back yard and fill the bottle with water and see if you can make it." The little boy learned that if he    49   the bottle at the top near the lip with both hands, he could carry it without dropping it. What a wonderful    50  !

This scientist then remarked that it was at that moment that he knew he didn't need to be    51  to make mistakes. Instead, he learned that mistakes were just    52   for learning something new, which is,    53  , what scientific experiments are all about. Even if the experiment "doesn't   54  ," we usually learn something    55   from it.

When I began my high school years, I was quite interested in biology. I read lots of books of my father’s about animals, and I was   36   much educated about such matters as a 16-year-old could be.

    One Sunday afternoon, I was   37  with friends about animals. I said the whale（鯨魚）was   __38  a mammal animal. They disagreed. Finally, I called a   39   over to help settle the matter. I knew I was  40  , so I was looking forward to the teacher  41   I was right. My friends were eager for an opposite answer. We asked her   42  the whale was a mammal. “No, the whale is a fish,” she said without a moment’s   43  .

You could have knocked me over with a feather. My   44   was hurt because I lost the argument, but that wasn’t the main reason I was too  45  to speak. I still knew I was right, which   __46  the teacher was wrong. Not only was she wrong,   47   she was completely ignorant（無知的） about something I thought was   48   knowledge. But she was a teacher who had taught a long time. Everyone   49   her and no one else thought she could be wrong.

__50  that, I hadn’t known grown-ups could be wrong. This   51  shaped the way I viewed people as I grew up.   52   I found anyone treated another person with too much respect and admiration, I thought——and still think——“   53   silly.” From that point on, I had no  54__ for authority（權(quán)威）. To earn my respect, you have to be smart or  55   . I’ll never respect you just because you happen to be in charge or have a degree.
