A man named Nick went on a fishing holiday. Fishing was his favorite sport， and he had many prizes for fish he had caught.

Unfortunately， he didn’t have much luck， and he caught only a few small fish. He was quite （A) ________ and was going to go back home， when he heard of a large river that was full of fish nearby.

He found the river quite easily and followed it through the country to a place where it flowed(流动) through a farm. He decided to ask the farmer’s permission to fish in the river.

“You have my permission，” the farmer said. “But you should be careful. For years I stopped my kids from going near the river.”

“Is the river dangerous?” Nick asked.

“It’s not the river，” the farmer said， “it’s the （B) ________. They are huge. They’re so big that my kids couldn’t hold them.”

  Nick was very excited. All fishermen want to catch really big fish.

“How big are they?” he asked.

“Well，” the farmer told him， “ Last week I lost one over three feet long， and yesterday I lost one over four feet long.”

【解析】

试题分析：短文大意：尼克最喜欢的运动是钓鱼，他因为钓到鱼而获了许多奖。一个夏天，天气很美丽，钓鱼应该是很好的，所以他决定环游乡下，花几天时间到河里钓鱼。不幸的是，他没有多少运气，他只抓几条小鱼。这使他相当失望。

1.根据文中One summer the weather was beautiful and fishing was supposed to be good， so he decided to travel around the countryside， spending a few days fishing in the rivers.可知尼克继续决定环游乡下，花几天时间到河钓鱼，所以作答A few days。

2.根据Unfortunately， he didn’t have much luck， and he caught only a few small fish.可知划线词的意思是“失望”，所以选A。

3.The fish are too big for my kid to hold的意思是：鱼太大孩子们很难抓住。文中They are so big that my kids couldn’t hold them的意思是：它们是如此的大以致我的孩子们不能抓住他们。这两个句子是同义句。.

4.联系后文中They are huge. They’re so big that my kids couldn’t hold them.” Nick was very excited. All fishermen want to catch really big fish 可知该填写fish。

5.根据短文“It’s two of my kids that I lost.”最后可知该选A.，他们在河附近迷路啦。
