出退赛时，教练没有同意。故答案选D。
6．A.begging C．failing
B．training D．applying
解析：选B。考查动词辨析。beg意为“乞求”；train意为“训练”；fail意为“失败”；apply意为“申请”。根据句中“kept”和“and participating in the meets”可知，教练拒绝了作者的退赛请求并给予作者鼓励与信任，因此作者又继续训练了。故答案选B。
7．A.amount C．affair
B．success D．honour
解析：选C。考查名词辨析。amount意为“数量”；success意为“成功”；affair意为“事件”；honour意为“荣耀”。此空格所在部分为“the final meet”的同位语，是对它进行解释。由空格后的参赛选手数量“less than two hundred students”可知，本次比赛为一场大型赛事。故答案选C。
8．A.across C．over
B．beyond D．to
解析：选A。考查介词辨析。across意为“(从表面)通过”；beyond意为“(抽象意义上的)超越”；over意为“(从上方)越过”；to意为“到达”。根据句意可知，此处指完成比赛跑过终点线的前20名选手将获奖。故答案选A。
9．A.followed C．left
B．kept D．fell
解析：选D。考查动词辨析。follow意为“跟随”；keep意为“保持”；leave意为“留下”；fall意为“落下”。fall behind意为“落后”，为固定搭配。本句句意为：我们开始跑了，我很快就落后了。C项为干扰项，如选用，须用被动语态，故排除。故答案选D。
10．A.helped C．inspired
B．passed D．supported
解析：选B。考查动词辨析。help意为“帮助”；pass意为“路过”；inspire意为“启发”；support意为“支持”。根据文意可知，作者落后了，许多作者的朋友们从作者身边跑过时都鼓励他继续奔跑。故答案选B。
11．A.field C．line
B．test D．match
解析：选C。考查名词辨析。field意为“田地，场地”；test意为“测验”；line意为“(终点)线”；match意为“比赛”。根据此空格前的“passed”和空格后的“finally”提示可知，作者最终跑过了终点线。故答案选C。
12．A.last C．quickest
B．least D．farthest
6
解析：选A。考查形容词辨析。last意为“最后的”；least“最少的”；quickest意为“最快的”；farthest意为“最远的”。根据上一句中的“received the 100th keychain”可知，作者跑了第100名。上文提到参赛选手有将近200名，所以有史以来第一次，作者不是最后一名。故答案选A。
13．A.speeds C．quality
B．spots D．chance
解析：选B。考查名词辨析。speed意为“速度”；spot意为“点”；quality意为“质量”；chance意为“机会”。本句及之后的内容表明教练在表扬队员，此空格前有“high”，与spots搭配有“亮点”的意思，指队员们是比赛场上的亮点。故答案选B。
14．A.presents C．wishes
B．awards D．keychains
解析：选B。考查名词辨析。present意为“礼物”；award意为“奖项”；wish意为“愿望”；keychain意为“钥匙圈”。由比赛奖励规则可知，前20名获得奖项，前100名获得运动鞋钥匙圈奖励。根据后一句“I felt ashamed，for I was the one who didn’t win an award.”可知，大部分队友都获得了award(奖项)。故答案选B。
15．A.deserve C．believe
B．value D．request
解析：选A。考查动词辨析。deserve意为“应得”；value意为“看重”；believe意为“相信”；request意为“要求”。根据上文可知，作者没有获得奖项，只得到第100名，于是感到羞愧，觉得自己没资格获得教练的表扬。故答案选A。
16．A.aware C．capable
B．sure D．proud
解析：选D。考查形容词辨析。aware意为“意识到的”；sure意为“确定的”；capable意为“胜任的”；proud意为“自豪的”。根据空格后的“because I never gave up and because... unbelievable personal...”可知，教练为作者不放弃并取得的巨大进步感到自豪。故答案选D。
17．A.number C．race
B．place D．minute
解析：选B。考查名词辨析。number意为“数量”；place意为“位置，名次”；race意为“比赛”；minute意为“分钟”。此处指教练表扬“我”从最后一名上升到中间的名次。故答案选B。
18．A.victory C．matter
B．ambition D．opinion
解析：选A。考查名词辨析。victory意为“胜利”；ambition意为“野心”；matter
7
意为“物质，事情”；opinion意为“观点，看法”。本句中，教练表扬“我”经过努力提升了名次，这对“我”自己来说是一个难以置信的胜利。故答案选A。
19．A.introduced C．proved
B．encouraged D．attracted
解析：选B。考查动词辨析。introduce意为“介绍”；encourage意为“鼓励”；prove意为“证明”；attract意为“吸引”。此处指教练表扬“我们”彼此相互鼓励与合作，与文章第二段中的“My friends who ______ me encouraged me to keep running.”相呼应。故答案选B。
20．A.as if C．even though
B．in case D．as long as
解析：选C。考查连词辨析。as if意为“似乎”；in case意为“万一”；even though意为“即使”；as long as意为“只要”。本句为从句，由逗号前的主句中“together”和从句中的“alone”可知，此从句与主句构成转折关系，应为让步状语从句，句意为：他说尽管我们都是独自参加比赛，但我们相互鼓励与合作。故答案选C。
