Others go in winter, but why couldn’t we?      , we could be healthier if we did. ” I told them about this, and they all said it was a good idea      . Early the next morning, we four were standing at the bus stop, with bags in our hands,       for a bus to take us to the       . The sky was clear; the sun was shining. But it was very cold all the same.       our heavy overcoats were not enough to keep us warm. We all felt we should go back, but no one wanted to speak out.

We soon reached the sands. There was       there, but we were not discouraged.

I was up       and rushed again to the shore.       it was with my friends. We put on our clothes as quickly as possible.

【解析】

試題分析：主要講述作者和他的朋友在冬天的一個早晨前往大海游泳的故事。

1.C從第二段可知，作者和他的朋友去海邊游泳，因此他們談?wù)摰脑掝}是運動，選C。A項和B項與下文無關(guān)；play用作名詞時，詞義是“比賽；游戲；戲劇”，也與下文內(nèi)容無關(guān)。

2.A解釋同上。下文可知，作者是去海邊游泳，因此，選A。其他三項與下文不符。skating溜冰，滑冰；skiing滑雪（運動）；camping野營，露營

3.B此處是作者勸朋友們?nèi)ビ斡�。句意是：游泳很有趣；別人能去，我們?yōu)槭裁床荒埽欢�且，游泳使我們更健康。besides而且；此外；specially特別地；專門地；really真正；實在；clearly清楚地；顯然地。只有B項符合上下文的連接。

4. A朋友們都說這真是一個好主意。indeed真正地, (加強語氣)確實； fully充分地；完全地；certainly無疑地，確定地；當然地；truly真正；精確地，正確地；詞義符合的是A、D兩項，但indeed一般放在句尾(放在句首用逗號隔開)，而truly一般放在它修飾的動詞前。因此，選A。

5.C上文中提到四個人站在公共汽車站旁，手中拿著包，因此是在等公交車。其他三項不符合。look for 尋找； search for 搜尋；尋找； ask for請求； 要求

6.D從下文第二段第一句“到達沙灘”，可知，我們是在等公交車把我們送到沙灘那兒。sands沙灘；A、B、C項與下文不符。

7.A此處寫天冷，甚至是厚外套也不足以保暖。even 甚至，表示遞進。yet然而，但是，表轉(zhuǎn)折；just剛才；僅僅。

8.B聯(lián)系下文，盡管沙灘上一個人也沒有，我們也沒有感到沮喪。

9.C聯(lián)系上文，我們沒有感到沮喪。相反地，對于只有我們敢挑戰(zhàn)這種天氣（游泳），我們感到很自豪。excited 感到興奮的；lonely 孤獨的

10.A聯(lián)系上文，我們很自豪，所以迅速脫了衣服下水。so因此；所以，表因果關(guān)系，符合句意。 but和yet 然而，但是，表轉(zhuǎn)折；still 仍然，還是；然而，這三項均不符合。

11.D然而，事情進展的并不順利。根據(jù)句意，選D。smooth平穩(wěn)的；順利的，符合句意。right正確的；右邊的；合適的。

12.C最后，我們終于下定決心要下水了。根據(jù)句意，選C。at last 最后；終于； at first最初；起先； at all完全； 根本；at once 立刻；馬上。

13.C我們剛把腳放進去，（結(jié)果）卻立刻拿了出來。only to do...作結(jié)果狀語，表示意料之外的結(jié)果。

14.D從下文的“we all rushed...”可以看出，我建議大家同時跳進去。因此，選D。one by one一個接一個地； 依次地；one after another一個接一個地；separately分別地；各自地；at the same time同時

15.B我們退后十步，我發(fā)出命令，然后大家一起跳。根據(jù)句意，選B。give the order 發(fā)出命令； mark記號；痕跡；分數(shù)。

16.D因為天冷，我剛一入水，就馬上起來，沖回到岸上。immediately立刻；馬上；nervously 緊張地

17.C據(jù)下文可知，朋友們和我一樣（馬上起來，沖回到岸上）。表示另一主語和……一樣，當前面既有肯定又有否定或有兩個謂語時，用so it is/was with sb. 或so it is/was the same with sb. 因此，選C。

18.D我們在回家的路上討論這次難忘的經(jīng)歷。experience 經(jīng)歷；經(jīng)驗；idea主意；想法；experiment試驗；實驗；chance 機會；可能性。

19.A此處指我們四個人都三天沒能上學。attend school 上學；reach 到達；enter 進入。
