解析:

这是一篇夹叙夹议的记叙文。通过与父亲一起钓鱼的一次亲身经历，小男孩受到了深刻的道德教育，从而影响了他的一生。道德是简单的对和错的问题，但要付诸行动却很难。尤其是在无人知晓的情况下，我们是否会自觉以道德的标准来衡量我们的言行呢？人应当以“诚实为本，道德至上”。

1．B    由下文可知是鲈鱼季节开放的前。

2．B    他是去钓鱼而非其它。

3．A    当鱼杆向下弯的时候，他知道线的另一端一定钓到了一条大鱼。

4．A    在线的另一端。on the one hand, on the other hand 意为“一方面……；另一方面……” at the either side “在任何一方”。

5．C    小男孩钓鱼技巧纯熟，父亲看了眼神充满赞赏。

6．D    被钓着的鱼当然是筋疲力尽。

7．B    但他钓着的是一条鲈鱼。此处用but 表示转折，因为鲈鱼是禁止垂钓。

8．C     “你得把它放回去，孩子，”他说道。此处指放回去。A、B、D项均不相符。

9．A    even though 表示让步“即使”；其句意为：即使没有人看到他们，更无从得知他们何时钓到了鱼。

10．A     tell“分辨；辨别”常与can, could, be able to 连用。

11．C    从父亲不可动摇的语气中，他知道这个决定没有商量余地。即“固定了的”。

12．C    the black water 意为“漆黑的水中”。其句意为“他慢慢地将鱼钩从大鲈鱼的唇上取下，然后蹲下将鱼放回水中”。他在湖上钓鱼，不可能把鱼放回到河流或海里，更不是放入容器里。

13．B    鱼儿摆动着它强健的身躯，消失在水中。fled 逃跑；floated漂浮；swim游。

14．B    他猜得没错。此处肯定上文所说的事“他可能再也看不到这么大的鱼了”

15．A    land 意为“将鱼钓上岸”。saw指表示看见；cast洒网；threw投，掷。

16．D    the same fish指被他自己钓着的那条鱼。但每次他面临道德难题而举棋不定的时候，他的眼前总是浮现出那条鱼。

17．C    此处是强调句型。意为：要付诸行动却很难。

18．B    do right 做得对、得当。do wrong做得不对；do good做好事；do harm危害。此句意为“在没人瞧见的时候，我们是否仍始终如一，一丝不苟”

19．A    由下文“For we would have learned the truth.”可知此处是“被教给”。意为：在我们还小的时候，如果有人要我们把鱼放回去，我们会这样做

20．B    此处是形容词作状语，表示状态。不能用副词。意为：正确的决定在我们的记忆里变得清新。
