【解析】

短文大意：本文是記敘文，講述了在馬拉松比賽中，一位女運(yùn)動(dòng)員在腿出毛病的情況下，堅(jiān)持完成比賽，成為“最后的賽跑者”，表現(xiàn)了她的堅(jiān)韌頑強(qiáng)，告訴我們堅(jiān)持目標(biāo)的重要意義。

【1】

句意：而我的工作就是坐在救護(hù)車上跟著賽跑者，因?yàn)樗麄冎械娜魏我粋�(gè)人都可能需要醫(yī)療救助。

any任何人；either用于二者擇其一；both表示兩者都；none沒有一個(gè)，表完全否定。句中them是指the runners（賽跑者），根據(jù)“might need medical attention需要醫(yī)療救助”，可知不確定是哪一個(gè)，后面三項(xiàng)不合句意，故選A。

【2】

句意：“我們應(yīng)該跟在最后一名選手后面，所以慢慢來(lái)，”我對(duì)司機(jī)道格說(shuō)。

above在……上方，表位置；below在……下方，表位置；before在……之前，表時(shí)間；behind在……后面，表位置。根據(jù)上文“My job was to follow the runners in an ambulance我的工作就是坐在救護(hù)車上跟著賽跑者”，可知應(yīng)該跟在最后一名選手的后面，故選D。

【3】

句意：領(lǐng)先者開始消失，然后我的眼睛被吸引到那個(gè)穿著藍(lán)色絲綢跑步短褲和寬松的白色t恤的女人。

appear出現(xiàn)；disappear消失；run跑；prepare準(zhǔn)備。根據(jù)下文“We knew we were already watching our ‘last runner’ 我們知道我們已經(jīng)在看我們的‘最后的賽跑者’了”，可知領(lǐng)先的不見了，故選B。

【4】

句意：她的腿有點(diǎn)問(wèn)題，所以對(duì)她來(lái)說(shuō)幾乎不可能走路。

hands手；arms胳膊；legs腿；teeth牙齒。根據(jù)“it seemed almost impossible for her to be able to walk對(duì)她來(lái)說(shuō)幾乎不可能走路”，可知是腿有問(wèn)題，故選C。

【5】

句意：最后，她成了眼前唯一的運(yùn)動(dòng)員。

Luckily幸運(yùn)地；Firstly首先；Quickly快速地；Finally最后。根據(jù)“she was the only runner left她是唯一剩下的跑步者”，可知前面三項(xiàng)不合語(yǔ)境，故選D。

【6】

句意：當(dāng)我看著她在最后幾英里的路程中奮力前行時(shí)，眼淚順著我的臉頰流了下來(lái)。

when當(dāng)……的時(shí)候；until直到，和not連用表示“直到……才”；since自從，用于表示一段持續(xù)的時(shí)間；before在……之前。根據(jù)“Tears ran down my face眼淚從我臉上流下來(lái)”，可知“我”看到她在最后幾英里的路程中奮力前行，when符合語(yǔ)境，故選A。

【7】

句意：當(dāng)終點(diǎn)線出現(xiàn)時(shí)，到處都是垃圾，激動(dòng)的人群早已回家。

sad傷心的；patient有耐心的；excited興奮的；surprised驚訝的。根據(jù)文意和語(yǔ)境，觀看馬拉松比賽的場(chǎng)面讓人振奮的，可知ABD三項(xiàng)不合語(yǔ)境，故選C。

【8】

句意：她慢慢地穿過(guò)，留下絲帶的兩端在她身后飄動(dòng)。

making制作；leaving留下；letting讓；having有。根據(jù)“She slowly crossed through她慢慢地穿過(guò)”，女運(yùn)動(dòng)員終于“撞線”了，絲帶的兩端在她身后飄動(dòng)，可知leave符合句意，故選B。

【9】

句意：我不知道這個(gè)女人的名字，但那天她成了我生活的一部分——我經(jīng)常依賴的一部分。

worry about擔(dān)心；wait for等待；laugh at嘲笑；depend on依靠。破折號(hào)表強(qiáng)調(diào)，根據(jù)“that day she became part of my life那天她成了我生活的一部分”，結(jié)合下文“When think things are too difficult or I get ‘I-just-can't-do-it,’ I think of the last runner當(dāng)我覺得事情太難或者我感到‘我就是做不到’的時(shí)候，我想到的是最后一個(gè)跑步者”，可知“我”在以后的生活中經(jīng)常想到她，depend on符合句意，故選D。

【10】

句意：然后我意識(shí)到擺在我面前的任務(wù)是多么容易。

difficult困難的；easy容易的；interesting有趣的；meaningless無(wú)意義的。根據(jù)上文“For her, it wasn't about beating the other runners or winning a prize, but about finishing what she had set out to do, no matter what對(duì)她來(lái)說(shuō)，重要的不是打敗其他賽跑者或贏得獎(jiǎng)品，而是無(wú)論如何完成她的目標(biāo)”，可知一想到女運(yùn)動(dòng)員的故事，“我”就不再感覺任務(wù)難以完成，故選B。

完形填空。主要題型有（1）考查詞義辨析：名詞辨析，形容詞副詞辨析，冠詞辨析，介詞連詞辨析等；（2）考查句子時(shí)態(tài)，語(yǔ)態(tài)，要根據(jù)語(yǔ)境，選擇正確的時(shí)態(tài)和語(yǔ)態(tài)的選項(xiàng)；（3）考查從句（賓語(yǔ)從句，定語(yǔ)從句，主語(yǔ)從句等）；（4）根據(jù)固定句型或短語(yǔ)結(jié)合語(yǔ)境選擇正確的選項(xiàng)。

本文講述了一位腿部受傷的女運(yùn)動(dòng)員克服疼痛，堅(jiān)持完成馬拉松比賽的感人故事，做題時(shí)要知道每一個(gè)詞的意義和用法，根據(jù)上下文語(yǔ)境，然后結(jié)合句子結(jié)構(gòu)選擇適合語(yǔ)境或語(yǔ)法的選項(xiàng)。例如小題10，四個(gè)選項(xiàng)都是形容詞：difficult困難的；easy容易的；interesting有趣的；meaningless無(wú)意義的。根據(jù)上文“For her, it wasn't about beating the other runners or winning a prize, but about finishing what she had set out to do, no matter what對(duì)她來(lái)說(shuō)，重要的不是打敗其他賽跑者或贏得獎(jiǎng)品，而是無(wú)論如何完成她的目標(biāo)”，可知“我”以女運(yùn)動(dòng)員激勵(lì)自己，就會(huì)感到任務(wù)比較簡(jiǎn)單，故選B。
