解析：

(1)	其他青蛙聚在洞口处看着他们的同伴。
(2)	根据下文倒数第二段中第1句话中His companions可知。
(3)	根据下文这些青蛙劝他们放弃可知。
(4)	由第3段中since they were already as good as dead可知。as good as实际上等于。
(5)	由第5段提到的jump with every bit of energy he had可知，此处是表示他们用力(strength)跳跃。force是指暴力，或自然界的力。
(6)	与第1段中it was hopeless相照应。
(7)	如果他俩小心些的话就不会处于这样的情形(situation)中了。
(8)	根据第四段中and died as the others looked on in helpless sorrow．可知。
(9)	此处指让它们停止跳跃，放弃努力。energy精力，与上文提到的jumped with all of their strength以及下一段最后一句话可知。
(10)	两只青蛙继续努力地跳跃着。
(11)	在几小时的努力(effort)后，他俩都疲惫不堪了。
(12)	根据lay down可知这只青蛙放弃努力，躺到洞底(bottom)等死了。
(13)	而另一只青蛙尽管已经疲惫不堪了，但还在不遗余力地努力跳着。
(14)	它的同伴们又开始向它喊叫让它接受命运，停止挣扎，就请等死好了。just可以翻译为“就请……，尽管(就)……好了”。
(15)	根据下文可知它跳出来了，那么此处就应该为跳得高(high)的意思。
(16)	其他青蛙没有想到它会成功的，因此觉得很惊奇(amazed)。
(17)	既然它听不见，那么此处应该为从他们的嘴唇形状明白了他们的意思。read可以翻译为“看懂，读懂”。
(18)	它以为这些青蛙在为他加油鼓劲。cheer sb．on激励某人，与下句话中的inspired照应。
(19)	它把所看到的当作是鼓励，来激励着它不断努力直到成功。
(20)	解析：lift up使受到鼓舞，使振奋，与上文的cheer sb．on意义一致。 　　文章大意：一伙青蛙结伴外出，其中两只不幸落入深坑。别的青蛙认为坑太深它们无法跳出就劝它们接受命运，不用白费劲地向外蹦了。其中一只在努力了一会儿后就听从了坑外青蛙们的建议，最后死在坑里。而另一只却一直努力，最后成功跳了出来。原来它是只聋青蛙，它一直以为大家在鼓励它，所以就坚持不懈地跳直到成功。这则寓言告诉我们要鼓励别人去发挥他们的最大潜能创造奇迹。
