这是一道英语填空题，主要考查词汇在语篇中的正确形式运用。解题的关键在于理解语篇内容，根据上下文语境以及语法规则来确定括号内单词的正确形式。需要掌握形容词、副词、名词等词性的转换规则，以及一些固定搭配和语法结构，如“in silence”“it is + adj. + to do sth.”等。
【答案】：
(1) endless。根据语境，老人等了很久，等待似乎是无止境的，“end”的形容词形式“endless”表示“无止境的”。
(2) Finally。这里需要一个副词来修饰整个句子，表示“最后”，“final”的副词形式是“finally”。
(3) silence。“in silence”是固定短语，意为“沉默地”，所以用“silent”的名词形式“silence”。
(4) hopeful。根据语境，老人在最后一个骑手靠近时是有希望的，“hope”的形容词形式“hopeful”表示“有希望的”。
(5) carefully。这里需要用副词来修饰动词“took”，“care”的副词形式是“carefully”，表示“小心地，仔细地”。
(6) trying。“without”是介词，后面接动词 -ing 形式，所以用“try”的 -ing 形式“trying”。
(7) useless。根据语境，老人觉得向其他骑手求助是无用的，“use”的形容词形式“useless”表示“无用的”。
(8) kindness。“in your eyes I saw...”这里需要一个名词，“kind”的名词形式是“kindness”，表示“善良”。
(9) helpful。根据语境，老人知道骑手是一个乐于助人的人，“help”的形容词形式“helpful”表示“乐于助人的”。
(10) thankful。“be thankful for...”是固定短语，意为“对……感激”，所以用“thank”的形容词形式“thankful”。

One day some friends came to me and said, “We’re going to Africa to do business. Why don’t you come with us? We’ll all be rich after this journey!”
How stupid I was! I had an easy, comfortable life in Brazil, but, of course, I agreed. And so in 1659, I went to sea again.
At first, all went well, but then there was a terrible storm. For twelve days the wind and the rain didn’t stop. We lost three men in the sea, and soon the ship had holes in its sides. “We’re all going to die this time,” I said to myself. Then one morning one of the sailors saw land, but the next minute our ship hit some sand just under the sea. The ship could not move and we were really in danger now. The sea was trying to break the ship into pieces, and we had very little time. Quickly, we put a boat into the sea and got off the ship. But the sea was very dangerous and our little boat could not live for long in that wild water.
Half an hour later the angry sea turned our boat over and we were all in the water. I looked around for my friends, but I could see nobody. I was alone.
That day I was lucky, and the sea carried me to the shore. I could not see the land, only mountains of water all around me. Then, suddenly, I felt the ground under my feet. Another mountain of water came, pushed me up the beach, and I fell on the wet sand.
At first I was very thankful to be alive. Slowly, I got to my feet and went higher up the shore. From there, I looked out to sea. I could see our ship, but it was broken and there was nobody near it.
There was nobody in the water. All my friends were dead. I was alive, but in a strange wild country, with no food, no water and no gun.
It was dark now and I was tired. I was afraid to sleep on the shore. Perhaps there were wild animals there. So I went up into a tree and I stayed there all night.

答案：【解析】：
这是一道英语阅读理解题，主要考查学生对文章细节的理解和把握。题目给出了一个故事片段，来源于《鲁滨逊漂流记》，并围绕该故事提出了四个问题。我们需要根据文章内容，逐一分析每个问题的关键信息，然后找出正确答案。
1. 对于第一个问题，我们需要找到鲁滨逊在掉进海里之前所在的位置。根据文章中的描述，“Quickly, we put a boat into the sea and got off the ship. But the sea was very dangerous and our little boat could not live for long in that wild water. Half an hour later the angry sea turned our boat over and we were all in the water.” 可以看出，鲁滨逊和其他人是在船被困在沙地后，乘小船逃离大船，然后小船翻覆，他们掉进了海里。所以在掉进海里之前，他应该是在小船上，与其他人一起。
2. 第二个问题要求我们确定船只毁坏的正确顺序。通过阅读文章，我们可以找到关于船只状况的描述：“soon the ship had holes in its sides.”（船身有洞），“the next minute our ship hit some sand just under the sea.”（船撞到了海下的沙子），“Quickly, we put a boat into the sea and got off the ship.”（人们乘小船逃离），以及“I could see our ship, but it was broken and there was nobody near it.”（船已毁坏）。根据这些描述，我们可以确定船只毁坏的顺序。
3. 第三个问题询问鲁滨逊发现自己还活着时的感受。文章中明确提到，“At first I was very thankful to be alive.”（起初我对自己还活着感到非常感激），这为我们提供了答案。
4. 最后一个问题关于鲁滨逊如何保护自己睡觉。文章中提到，“I was afraid to sleep on the shore. Perhaps there were wild animals there. So I went up into a tree and I stayed there all night.”（我害怕在岸上睡觉，可能那里有野兽。所以我爬上一棵树，整夜呆在那里）。这告诉我们鲁滨逊是如何保护自己的。
【答案】：
1. B
在文章中提到，鲁滨逊和其他人在船撞到海下的沙子后，乘小船逃离了大船，但随后小船翻覆，他们掉进了海里。所以在掉进海里之前，他应该是在小船上，与其他人一起。因此，选项B“On a small boat with the other men.”是正确的。
2. B
根据文章中的描述，船只首先因为风暴而受损，船身出现洞（b），然后撞到了海下的沙子（d），之后人们乘小船逃离（c），最后船只完全毁坏（a）。所以正确的顺序是b - d - c - a，选项B是正确的。
3. C
文章中明确提到，鲁滨逊对自己还活着感到非常感激（At first I was very thankful to be alive.）。所以答案是C，即感激的。
4. A
文章中提到，鲁滨逊害怕在岸上睡觉，可能那里有野兽，所以他爬上一棵树，整夜呆在那里（I was afraid to sleep on the shore. Perhaps there were wild animals there. So I went up into a tree and I stayed there all night.）。这表明他通过爬树来保护自己，所以答案是A，即他睡在树上。
