A. attractingB. hurtingC. comfortingD. sucking【解析】选D。词义辨析题。本句意为“沙床边缘非常陡峭, 而下方的激流正往下拖曳着这位妇女

13、。”suck意为“吸、吮”, 此处理解为海水在往下冲刷这位妇女, 故正确答案为D项。17. A. look upB. turn overC. give inD. calm down【解析】选B。逻辑推理题。根据上文“由于刚刚做完膝盖外科手术”可知这位妇女因为限于身体条件而无法做出幅度较大的动作, 选项中只有turn over是幅度较大的动作; look up有“查阅、向上看”之意, 与文意不符; give in和calm down都是心理活动而不是动作。故正确答案为B。18.
