【解析】
本文介绍了作者在澳大利亚冲浪的经历。经过一系列岸上的准备工作后,他下水了。但尝试了很多次都不能在冲浪板上站起来,直到老师来辅导他,他才慢慢学会。
【1】考查介词用法。来一趟世界冲浪之都我不能试也不试就回去。根据语境可知填without。故填without。
【2】考查形容词的用法。设空处修饰名词,故用形容词skillful/skilled,意为“熟练的”。故填skillful/skilled。
【3】考查定冠词用法。the在此处表示特指,along the beach“沿着海滩”。故填the。
【4】考查动词时态。此处需填入一个谓语动词且整句用的是一般过去时,故填入lie的过去式lay。
【5】考查动词搭配和动名词作宾语。此处为固定用法,practice doing sth意为“练习做某事”。故填jumping。
【6】考查形容词的比较级。根据其后than it looks可知,此处用hard的比较级形式,意为“冲浪比看上去的要困难得多”。故填harder。
【7】考查代词用法。根据语境可知,it指代surfing。故填it。
【8】考查名词复数形式。根据其前的修饰语one of the可知,此处用名词复数形式coaches。
【9】考查非谓语动词的固定搭配。manage to do sth. 为固定用法,指“设法做到某事”。故填to stand。
【10】考查非限制性定语从句的用法。which指代站在冲浪板上这件事。故填which。
