She decided to swim across the English Channel before she

retired. If she could succeed, she would be the first person in the

world 71 did it. On that day, she jumped into the sea without any

hesitation(犹豫) and swam towards the opposite bank without

any 72 . In the journey, she faced heavy fog, heavy rain and heavy

waves. 73 she was tired, she still carried on swimming. But in the

end,she gave up. And she didn’t know that the opposite bank

was only one mile away when she gave up.

Later she 74 about the reason. And she said, “The reason

why I gave up is that I could not see the place which I was going

【主旨大意】文章讲述了一个女游泳运动员决定在退役之前游过

英吉利海峡。如果她成功了，她将是世界上第一个游过英吉利海峡的

人。在挑战的那一天，她克服了很多困难。但最终放弃了，她不知道

还有一英里她就成功了。后来在被采访的时候，她说放弃是因为完全

看不到她要到达的地方。短文告诉我们，在生活中要有清晰的目标，

而且要有勇气，勇敢地坚持下去。

71. who 考查定语从句的连接词。根据语法分析，可知此处用来

连接两个句子，且从句缺少主语，因前面的先行词是the first person，

故使用who来引导定语从句。句意：如果她成功了，她将是世界上第

一个做那件事的人。

72. protection 考查名词（动词变名词）。without是介词，可知

横线处填名词。由 and 可知，这句话和前面的without any

hesitation 并列，再根据句意可知，“她在没有任何保护措施的情况

下就游向了对岸”，所以填动词protect的名词形式 protection。

73. Though 考查状语从句的连接词。句意：尽管她已经累了，但

是她仍然继续坚持游泳。

74. was asked 考查被动语态。横线处动词作谓语，前后文语境提

示用一般过去时，再根据句意可知此处表达“她被问到原由”，所以

用一般过去时的被动语态 was asked。

75. completely 考查副词（形容词变副词）。空白处所填词修饰

动词see，故应填入一个副词。根据句意“我为什么放弃的原因是我完

全看不到我要到达的地方”，可知应填complete的副词形式

completely。

76. children 考查名词（单数变复数）。young 是形容词，后面

加名词，又因为主语是we，所以应填名词的复数形式。根据句意 “自

从我们还是年轻的孩子时，许多关于勇气和坚持的故事就被告知我们”

可知，应填child的复数形式 children。

77. to find 考查非谓语动词。根据句意“但是他们从不会告诉我

们去哪里寻找勇气和坚持”，可知应选择动词find，又因为前面是

where，可知此处运用结构“疑问词+动词不定式”，所以应填 to

find。

78. yourself 考查反身代词。横线处所填词作动词prepare的宾

语。根据句意“而且那是因为当你知道你的目标在哪里时，你只能在

脑子里好好为自己准备”，所以主语和宾语为同一人，用反身代词

yourself。

79. fall 考查动词。根据句意“坚持和勇气从来不是天上掉下来

的”，再根据固定搭配fall from（从……下来），可知选动词fall。根

据前后文语境的提示应使用一般现在时，又因主语为复数，所以应填

fall。

80. like 考查介词。根据句意“没有目标的生活就像没有罗盘的

船”，可知此处应为介词加名词构成的介宾短语作表语，所以应填介

词like。
