8、r in my nose”可知，作者在游泳考试中被水“呛”着了，由此可知答案是choked。choke 意为“窒息”，get choked“被呛着了”。get injured“受伤”；get blamed “被责备”；get trapped“被困住”。6. Apushed Bpressed Cgrabbed Dcontrolled答案：C解析：作者被水呛到后马上停止了游泳，“抓住”了泳池的边，结束了考试。grab“抓住”符合语境。push“推”；press“按，压”；control“控制”。7. Aabove Bbelow Cbeside Dbeyond答案：A解析：作者因为被水呛着停止了游泳

9、考试，抓住了泳池的边，此时，他的教练一个大学生，正站在他的“上方”。作者在泳池里，教练应是站在游泳池边上，所以要用above，表示“在上方”。below“在下面”；beside“在旁边”；beyond“超出(某个数量、水平或限度)”。8. AsurprisedBsympathetic Cannoyed Dcold答案：B解析：作者被水呛着停止了考试，抓住了泳池的边，结合下文可知，此时，教练用毫不“同情的”声音对作者喊：“你为什么不游了？”所以答案是sympathetic“同情的”。surprised“吃惊的”；annoyed“烦恼的”；cold“冷淡的，不友好的”。9. AexplainedB

10、reacted Cdeclined Durged答案：A解析：当教练用毫不同情的声音质问作者为什么停止游泳的时候，作者“解释”说：“我的鼻子进水了。”所以答案是explained。 react“反应”；decline“拒绝，谢绝”；urge“敦促”。10. Adelivered Bowed Ctaught Dpromised答案：C解析：teach sb.a lesson是固定短语，意思是“给某人一个教训”，符合语境，所以答案是taught。deliver“递送”；owe“欠”；promise“许诺”。11. Aso that Bas if Cin case Deven if答案：D解析：作者

11、感慨，这个大学生，也就是教练，给了他人生中一个很大的教训，“虽然”他(教练)很可能并没有意识到这一点。even if“虽然，即使”符合语境。so that“以便”；as if“好像”；in case“万一”。12. AproblemBexcuse Cquestion Dvoice答案：C解析：根据So可知，此处表示这个“问题”，使作者很吃惊，所以答案是question。problem“问题”，一般指须解决的问题，是就困难而言的；excuse“理由，借口”；voice“声音”。13. Alogical Billegal CridiculousDimpossible答案：A解析：在作者看来，解决痛

Aconcerned Bsensitive Cembarrassed Dsure答案：D解析：作者意识到无论多么难，一个有价值的目标是值得实现的之后，“确信”什么也阻挡不了自己完成这次考试。sure“确信的，有把握的”符合语境。concerned“担心的”；sensitive“敏感的”；embarrassed “难堪的”。17.
