    解析：

    (1)

    第一段中单词sand和water给予提示，可以推断出Leroy Columbo在海滩上行走．另外第二段第一句也出现了beach．

    (2)

    Leroy和在阳光下沐浴的人们点头微笑，但他总是警惕地注视着海面．前后转折关系，选However．

    (3)

    deaf的根据在后面一句：He couldn't hear cried for help．

    (4)

    因为耳聋，他不得不依靠他的视觉。客观原因所迫，选had to．

    (5)

    耳聋但是个海上救生员，他只有拥有敏锐的观察力才能做到，因此选用notice表示他仔细观察。

    (6)

    B选项的sportsman明显与文中所说的lifeguard不符，view：视野，指用特殊的方式观看事物或有目的地进行观察；从（特定处看到的）景色，例如：the view from the fop of a church tower（从教堂塔顶看到的景色）；a room with a view（看出去景色美丽的房间）。sight：“情景，奇观”，用复数形式，意为“名胜，风景”，强调看到处于视野以内或视力可极的东西。如：see the sights of the West Lake（游览西湖风景）。scene：“景象，风光”，如scenes of mountain district（山区风光）。

    (7)

    海上救生员，当然是救被淹的人。

    (8)

    上文提到他是耳聋，本句追述他失去听力的年纪。

    (9)

    16岁时，因父亲去世。他不得不辍学帮助家庭维持生计。

    (10)

    an expert swimmer意为一个游泳好手，因此方能当救生员。

    (11)

    根据上下文可拟断出Leroy是加入俱乐部，不是组织或创建俱乐部。join的意思是参加一种组织，并成为其中一员。

    (12)

    加入俱乐部要被测试，这从后面一句He had to swim three hours without stopping中可以看出来。

    (13)

    俱乐部接受用accept

    (14)

    他必须不停地游三个小时，甚至不能浮在水面上或仰泳来休息。故用even．

    (15)

    仰泳为swim on his back．而游三个小时的姿式会是蛙泳或蝶泳。仰泳较少花力气，所以不能通过仰泳休息。

    (16)

    本题四个词组都可按动名词作宾语，但意思各不相同。go into doing：参加一组织，尤其是为职业，从事；goon doing：继续做某事；give up doing：放弃做某事；insist on doing：坚持做某事。Leroy虽然游泳很棒，但从来没有参加过训练．参加训练用go into为合适。

    (17)

    Leroy从来没有参加过训练来获取奖金，相反，他利用自己的游泳技术来救人。

    (18)

    时间状语从句，用when引导，while后从句不用非延续性动词。

    (19)

    在葬礼上，人们常用默哀来寄托哀思。所以本句为常识题。

    (20)

    in one's memory意为纪念某人

    There are a few memories from our childhood that will stay with us forever. A few that seemed so    36    at the time may cause us to smile years later.

         One such memory is a phone call I    37    when I was about three or four years old. My mother had entered a contest on a local    38    show. Entrants（参加者）were to tell an interesting story about their    39   . Winners would receive a phone call from Mrs. Santa Claus（女圣诞老人）! Mrs. Claus would award（奖励） the lucky child free    40    of a local store.

         Well, the call came. My mother talked to Mrs. Claus and then    41    the phone to me. I didn’t    42    the fact that many people were listening to our conversation. However, the fact that this lady had a    43    connection to Santa, that was important.

         I didn’t know it yet, but my mother had    44    the attention of the contest judges by telling about the time I had    45    a wall with crayons（蜡笔）. Even I knew that this was not the kind of    46    that Santa would approve.

         Suddenly, in a very pleasant tone（语气）of    47   , Mrs. Santa Claus asked me about my art work. I    48    that this lady was the real Mrs. Claus, not a radio station actress standing in for her.

         I    49    down the phone and ran crying from the room. My crime（罪行）had not    50    unpunished. Santa would    51    know that I’d been bad!

         It turned out that I did get a    52    present from the radio station and its sponsor（赞助商）. And I guess Santa didn’t find out about the wall. Maybe he did and was in a    53    mood. In any case, my Christmas presents did not    54    a piece of coal（煤）.

         I wonder what Santa has in    55    for this year. Hopefully my wife hasn’t written Mrs. Claus any letters.

    I recently heard a story about a famous scientist who had made several very important medical breakthroughs. He was being interviewed by a reporter who asked him    36   he thought he was able to be so much more    37   than the average person.

    He    38   that it all came from a(n)   39   with his mother that occurred when he was about 2. He had been trying to remove milk from the fridge when he    40   the slippery(光滑的) bottle, its contents running all over the kitchen floor.

    When his mother came in,    41   shouting at him or giving him a lecture, she said, "Robert, what a great and wonderful    42   you have made! I have    43   seen such a huge pool of milk. Well, the damage has already been    44  . Would you like to get down and    45   in the milk for a few minutes before we clean it up?"

    Indeed, he did. After a few minutes, his mother said, "Robert, whenever you make a mess like this, eventually you have to    46   everything to its proper order. So, how would you like to do that? We could use a sponge(海绵), a towel or a mop. Which do you prefer?" He chose the sponge.

    His mother then said, "You know, what we have here is a    47   experiment in how to effectively carry a big milk bottle with two    48   hands. Let's go out in the back yard and fill the bottle with water and see if you can make it." The little boy learned that if he    49   the bottle at the top near the lip with both hands, he could carry it without dropping it. What a wonderful    50  !

    This scientist then remarked that it was at that moment that he knew he didn't need to be    51  to make mistakes. Instead, he learned that mistakes were just    52   for learning something new, which is,    53  , what scientific experiments are all about. Even if the experiment "doesn't   54  ," we usually learn something    55   from it.

    When I began my high school years, I was quite interested in biology. I read lots of books of my father’s about animals, and I was   36   much educated about such matters as a 16-year-old could be.

        One Sunday afternoon, I was   37  with friends about animals. I said the whale（鲸鱼）was   __38  a mammal animal. They disagreed. Finally, I called a   39   over to help settle the matter. I knew I was  40  , so I was looking forward to the teacher  41   I was right. My friends were eager for an opposite answer. We asked her   42  the whale was a mammal. “No, the whale is a fish,” she said without a moment’s   43  .

    You could have knocked me over with a feather. My   44   was hurt because I lost the argument, but that wasn’t the main reason I was too  45  to speak. I still knew I was right, which   __46  the teacher was wrong. Not only was she wrong,   47   she was completely ignorant（无知的） about something I thought was   48   knowledge. But she was a teacher who had taught a long time. Everyone   49   her and no one else thought she could be wrong.

    __50  that, I hadn’t known grown-ups could be wrong. This   51  shaped the way I viewed people as I grew up.   52   I found anyone treated another person with too much respect and admiration, I thought——and still think——“   53   silly.” From that point on, I had no  54__ for authority（权威）.
