My son Daniel began surfing(冲浪)at the age of 13. After school each day he put on his wet suit and waited to be challenged by three-to-six-foot waves(浪). Daniel's love for the ride was tested one 1 afternoon.
"Your son's been in an accident," the lifeguard(救生员)reported to my husband Mike over the phone hurriedly. " 2 he came up to the top of the water,the point of the board was headed toward his eye." Mike rushed our son to the hospital. He 3 26 stitches(缝合)from the corner of his eye to the bridge of his nose. I was 4 home from a meeting while Daniel's eye was being stitched. Mike drove 5 to the airport after they left the doctor's office. He greeted me at the gate while Daniel was waiting in the car.
"Daniel?" I questioned. I kept thinking that the 6 must have been terrible that day. "He's going to be fine," Mike comforted me. I ran to the car. My son reached out both arms,crying,"Oh,Mom,I'm so glad you're home." I sobbed(抽泣)in his arms,telling him how 7 I felt about not being there when the lifeguard called. "I'll be fine. The doctor says I can go back in the water in eight days," he said. Was he crazy? I wanted to tell him that he wasn't allowed to go near water again until he was 35,but 8 I controlled myself.
He kept asking me to let him go back on the board for the next seven days. One day after I 9 "No" to him for the 100th time,he beat me at my own game.
"Mom,you taught us never to give up what we love." I gave in.
Back then Daniel was just a boy with deep 10 for surfing. Now he is a world-famous surfer.

这是一道英语完形填空题，主要考查学生对上下文的理解、词汇辨析以及语法运用能力。题目给出了一个关于冲浪的小故事，其中包含多个空格需要填空。学生需要通过阅读全文，理解文章大意，并结合所给的选项，选出最合适的词汇填入空格中。
1. 第一个空格所在的句子是"Daniel's love for the ride was tested one 1 afternoon."，根据上下文可以推断出，这里需要填入一个形容词来描述那个下午的不同寻常，因此选项A "unusual"最符合语境。
2. 第二个空格在"2 he came up to the top of the water,the point of the board was headed toward his eye."中，需要一个连词来引导时间状语从句，表示“当...时候”，所以选项B "When"是正确的。
3. 第三个空格在"He 3 26 stitches(缝合)from the corner of his eye to the bridge of his nose."中，根据句意可知，这里需要填入一个动词来表示“接受缝合”，因此选项C "received"是合适的。
4. 第四个空格在"I was 4 home from a meeting while Daniel's eye was being stitched."中，根据后文的"Mike drove 5 to the airport after they left the doctor's office."可以推断出，作者当时正在飞机上，所以选项A "flying"是正确的。
5. 第五个空格需要填入一个副词来描述Mike开车去机场的方式，根据上下文可知，Mike应该是直接开车去机场，所以选项D "directly"最符合语境。
6. 第六个空格在"I kept thinking that the 6 must have been terrible that day."中，需要一个名词来表示那天发生的事情，根据前文描述的是冲浪时发生的事故，所以选项A "waves"（海浪，这里指代冲浪时的情况）是最合适的。
7. 第七个空格需要填入一个形容词来描述作者当时的心情，根据"I sobbed(抽泣)in his arms"可以推断出，作者当时感到非常难过，所以选项C "awful"是正确的。
8. 第八个空格在"but 8 I controlled myself."中，需要一个副词来表示转折关系，说明作者虽然想告诉Daniel不能再接触水，但最终还是控制住了自己，所以选项A "instead"（反而）是最合适的。
9. 第九个空格需要填入一个动词来表示作者对Daniel的多次拒绝，根据"I 9 "No" to him for the 100th time"可以推断出，这里应该填入表示“重复”的动词，所以选项D "repeated"是正确的。
10. 最后一个空格在"Back then Daniel was just a boy with deep 10 for surfing."中，需要一个名词来表示Daniel对冲浪的深厚感情，根据前文描述可知，Daniel对冲浪有着深深的爱，所以选项A "love"是最合适的。
【答案】：
1. A；2. B；3. C；4. A；5. D；6. A；7. C；8. A；9. D；10. A。

二、阅读理解
Is advertisement necessary? Billions of dollars are spent on it every year,so it must be important. It's a busy world. You have to advertise to get people's attention to sell products(产品)!
Not every company thinks that way,however. The NO-AD company doesn't advertise in traditional ways. It sells its products by word of mouth. In this way,they can save money and keep costs down,which makes their products cheaper for customers(顾客).
"Word-of-mouth advertising" happens when one person tells another about a good experience with a product or service(服务). That next person then tells another friend,family member or colleague(同事). And so a chain of information is created.
Usually,advertisers talk about how good their product is. They say things like "Studies show that our product is the best." or "Everyone loves this product." It can sound unconvincing. It's much more believable to hear about a product from a family member or friend who has used it and liked it. So we often listen to our loved ones' advice about a product.
Word-of-mouth advertising has other advantages(优点)too. It's cost-effective. After all,it's free. And a company doesn't have to create a complex(复杂的)business plan to do it. Here is some advice for small businesses about word-of-mouth advertising.
•Be prepared to talk about your company at any time. You never know who you will meet. Always carry business cards.
•Only say good things about your company. Don't say bad things about your company.
•Help other companies by recommending people to them. The more you help others,the more good luck will come back to you ... and that's good business.

二、阅读理解
广告有必要吗？每年都有数十亿美元花费在广告上，所以它一定很重要。这是一个忙碌的世界。你必须做广告来吸引人们的注意力以销售产品！
然而，并非每个公司都这么想。无广告（NO - AD）公司不采用传统的广告方式。它通过口碑来销售产品。通过这种方式，他们可以节省资金并降低成本，这使得他们的产品对顾客来说更便宜。
当一个人向另一个人讲述对一种产品或服务的良好体验时，就会发生“口碑广告”。然后下一个人会告诉另一个朋友、家人或同事。就这样，一条信息链就形成了。
通常，广告商会谈论他们的产品有多好。他们会说诸如“研究表明我们的产品是最好的。”或者“每个人都喜欢这个产品。”之类的话。这听起来不可信。从使用过并喜欢该产品的家人或朋友那里听说一种产品会可信得多。所以我们经常会听取我们所爱的人对一种产品的建议。
口碑广告还有其他优点。它具有成本效益。毕竟，它是免费的。而且一家公司不必制定复杂的商业计划来进行口碑广告。以下是给小企业关于口碑广告的一些建议。
- 随时准备谈论你的公司。你永远不知道你会遇到谁。要一直携带名片。
- 只说你公司的好话。不要说你公司的坏话。
- 通过向其他公司推荐人员来帮助它们。你帮助别人越多，好运就会越多地回到你身边……而这就是好的生意。
（ ）1. 第4段中划线单词“unconvincing”可能是什么意思？
