1.形容词及语境的理解。句意：这是一个星期天的下午，天气很热，没有人想呆在家里。warm 温暖的；hot 热的；cool 凉爽的；cold冷的。根据下句话中Mike想要去河里游泳可知，天气应该是很热。故选B。

2.动词及语境的理解。句意：他们的父亲说，带他一起去。carry 搬运，携带；bring 带来；take 带走；catch抓住。根据文意可知，Mike想去河里游泳，他的弟弟Jim想和他一起去，他们的父亲让Mike带着Jim一起去游泳，故应该选C。

3.动词及语境的理解。句意：他们很快就来到了河边。worried about 为……担心；give up 放弃；arrive at 到达；grow up 长大。根据文意可知，Mike和Jim一起去游泳，所以这里应该是到达了河边。故选C。

4.动词及语境的理解。句意：很多人在河里游泳。wash 洗；run 跑；rest 休息；swim游泳。根据上文的文意可知，天气很热，所以Mike和Jim想去游泳。他们来到了河边，河里有很多人在游泳。故选D。

5.动词及语境的理解。句意：Mike让Jim在岸边玩，然后他跳进了河里。ran 的原形是run ，意思是跑；threw 的原形是throw，意思是扔； fell 的原形是fall，意思是掉下来；jump跳。这里是Mike跳进河里游泳。故选D。

6.形容词及语境的理解。句意：Mike游到岸边，手里拿着一条鱼，Jim非常的兴奋。exciting 令人兴奋的，修饰物；excited 某人感到兴奋的，修饰人；sad 伤心的；angry生气的。当Jim看到Mike抓了一条鱼的时候，应该是非常的兴奋。故选B。

7.代词及语境的理解。句意：那个晚上，Jim除了看鱼什么也没做。everything 每件事；something一些事； nothing 没有什么事；anything任何事。根据文意可知，那天晚上Jim光看鱼了，什么也没做，故用nothing，do nothing except …除了……什么也没做。

8.动词及语境的理解。句意：突然Mike听到Jim在房间里哭了。hear sb. doing sth. 是hear 的一个句型，意思是听到某人正在做某事。故选A。

9.介词及语境的理解。句意：Mike跑过去问，你怎么了，Jim？这里是一个固定的句型，What’s wrong with sb. 某人怎么了，出什么事了。故这里的介词应该用with。

10.形容词及语境的理解。句意：Jim说，鱼死了。它在水里老是游泳，我以为它累了，就把它从瓶子里拿出来放到椅子上，我只是想让它休息一下。hungry 饿的；healthy 健康的；dead 死的；busy忙的。根据Jim所说的这些话可知，这里应该是鱼死了。
