解析:
【分析】
做完形填空首先要通读全文,梳理清楚故事主线:本文是作者回忆童年和父亲前往阿迪朗达克山区湖边游玩的特殊经历,讲述了自己赌气往深水区游泳遇险,才发现父亲一直默默关注保护自己的故事。解题时逐空结合上下文情节逻辑、词义辨析和常见固定搭配,逐一排除不符合语境的选项,就能选出正确答案。
【解析】
1. 第1空:句意为“没有什么比阿迪朗达克的空气气味更美妙了”,“nothing+比较级”是常用结构,表达最高级含义,意为“没有比……更……的”,符合开篇夸赞当地环境的语境,选B。其余选项anything任何事、something某事、everything所有事都不符合逻辑。
2. 第2空:句意为“有一次我永远不会忘记的旅行,是前往山脚下的一处湖泊游玩”,结合后文这次遇险被父亲救助的特殊经历,可知这次旅行令人难忘,选C forget(忘记)。其余选项mind介意、finish完成、enjoy享受都不符合文意。
3. 第3空:句意为“随后爸爸、妹妹和我快速冲进水里”,前文提到刚抵达目的地就赶去野餐点,一家人迫不及待想要下水,用quickly(快速地)符合急切的状态,选D。其余选项quietly安静地、suddenly突然地、luckily幸运地都不符合语境。
4. 第4空:句意为“当我们终于玩游戏玩累了的时候,爸爸停下来看向我的妹妹”,固定搭配be tired of表示“对……感到疲惫/厌倦”,符合玩了很久跳水游戏后的状态,选B。其余选项be sure of确信、be full of充满、be afraid of害怕都不符合逻辑。
5. 第5空:句意为“她喜爱艺术游泳,开始练习比赛中会用到的技巧”,练习专项技巧用practise skills搭配合理,选D practising(练习)。其余选项playing玩耍、choosing选择、changing改变都不符合语境。
6. 第6空:句意为“浪变得越来越猛烈,但我完全不在意”,后文提到巨浪拍向了我,说明风浪越来越强,选C stronger(更强的)。其余选项smaller更小的、quieter更安静的、smoother更平稳的都和后文情节矛盾。
7. 第7空:句意为“我试图站起来,但失败了,我以为自己快要死了”,结合后文作者溺水的状态,可知他站不起来,选B failed(失败)。其余选项stayed停留、stopped停止、moved移动都不符合溺水的状态。
8. 第8空:句意为“他紧紧抱住我,把我带到了我可以站稳的地方”,前文提到作者在深水区站不起来,父亲自然是把他带到浅水区能站立的位置,选A stand(站立)。其余选项swim游泳、walk走路、pull拉都不符合逻辑。
9. 第9空:句意为“他给了我一个大大的微笑,因为他知道我已经没事了”,后半句是父亲露出微笑的原因,用because引导原因状语从句,选C。其余选项if如果、before在……之前、while当……时都不符合逻辑关系。
10. 第10空:句意为“他从来没有把视线从我身上移开过,他一直在保护我”,固定搭配take one's eyes off sb表示“把视线从某人身上移开”,选C off。

1.B 2.C 3.D 4.B 5.D 6.C 7.B 8.A 9.C 10.C
