Jeff Agar, 59, is helping Johnny experience life to the fullest by . .5. . every triathlon together with Johnny. "I'm not . .6. . of triathlons," Jeff joked. "This probably won't be in the top things I'd select to do... I just want to give Johnny the . .7. . to do it." When Johnny swims, he pulls; when Johnny runs, he pushes.
Johnny himself never stops . .8. .. In last year's triathlon, Johnny got out of his wheelchair and . .9. . to walk the last steps towards the finish line. "You can tell a person thank you . .10. ., but until it was turned into . .11. ., showing gratitude over and over doesn't mean anything," Johnny said. "Walking in the race is my . .12. . of thanking Dad for his love and effort."
Johnny and his dad now form Team Agar, using their story to . .13. . others. "We hope to help people put . .14. . behind them. Though the result is unknown, we're sure every attempt is . .15. .," said Johnny. "Either you win or you learn."
Johnny Agar 患有脑部疾病,行动不便,但是他一直梦想着参加铁人三项比赛。对他来说,这本来是遥不可及的,但父亲Jeff Agar的支持和Johnny的努力让梦想成为现实。
1.( ) A.challenging B.appropriate C.strange D.accessible
D
【解析】根据空后的"who suffered from a brain disease"和下文描述可知,Johnny患有脑部疾病,参加铁人三项对他来说曾是不可能的。accessible"可到达的,可接近的,可进入的"。
易错点拨
本题易误选B项。铁人三项对Johnny来说的确是不适合的,但空处所在句中的"once"表明这是过去的情况,强调对比和变化。Johnny的身体状况没有发生变化,现在还是不适合的。故可排除B项。
2.( ) A.get around B.stand out C.catch up D.carry over

4.( ) A.attention B.devotion C.confidence D.patience
B
【解析】根据上文的"Johnny Agar always dreamed of competing in triathlons(铁人三项)"和下文中提到的Jeff陪儿子参加比赛可知,这里强调爱,既有父亲对儿子的爱,又有Johnny 对铁人三项的爱。attention"专心,关注";devotion"深爱";confidence"信心,信任";patience"耐心"。
名师点津
空处位于一句习语之间,所填内容为除了意志外能促使Agar父子俩前进的要素,解答时需综合全文内容、人物特点和人物情感。文章的主线为Johnny对铁人三项的爱和父亲Jeff对儿子的爱,故devotion一词符合语境。
5.( ) A.watching B.comparing C.entering D.recording
C
【解析】根据下文的"When Johnny swims, he pulls; when Johnny runs, he pushes"可知,Jeff通过陪儿子参加比赛帮助儿子充分体验生活。enter"报名参加"。
6.( ) A.aware B.fond C.mindful D.capable
B
【解析】根据下文的"This probably won't be in the top things I'd select to do"可知,Jeff不喜欢铁人三项。aware"明白的";fond"喜爱,喜欢";mindful"留心的";capable"有能力的"。

11.( ) A.action B.reality C.care D.habit
A
【解析】根据语境可知,此处表示除非你把感谢的语言转化为行动,否则多次表示感谢也是没有意义的。action"行动"。
12.( ) A.choice B.manner C.purpose D.plan

易错点拨
虽然上文中的"Helen couldn't believe this happiness"能体现出Helen当下的惊讶,但该句中的Though表明,主从句之间存在让步关系,如果选择in surprise的话,这种关系就不成立了,故可排除A项。

Merda在橘子林里徘徊了几个小时,尔后返回树林,进入了一片沼泽地。他试图寻找方向,但失败了,夜幕也随之降临。夜里的湖水无比刺骨,就在Merda奋力游向对岸的时候,水流阻碍了他的进程。他一直挣扎,就在此时,一只短吻鳄映入眼帘。短吻鳄迅猛出击,咬住了Merda的前臂,把他拽到了水下。搏斗中,Merda的前臂被短吻鳄咬了下来,短吻鳄随之而去。Merda庆幸自己能在危情中活下来,他靠着树,静候黎明的到来。

完形中的熟词生义
高考试题对熟词生义的考查呈上升趋势。熟词生义一般分为两种情况:词源衍生义,即指一个单词由本义衍生而来的词义,该衍生义与词源义间的联系是隐性的;生僻衍生义,即指一个单词的衍生义与我们熟知的义项联系不大。本题考查current的名词含义"水流",需要同学们结合故事背景来进行含义的推测。
