【解析】

本文取自儒勒·凡尔纳小说《海底两万里》，节选主要讲述“我”第一次去见船长，要求离开鹦鹉螺号，但是船长拒绝了，尼德表示会尽一切可能逃跑，即使是坏天气，但是遇到的天气比想象中糟糕很多，鹦鹉螺号却在风暴中下潜，安然无恙，这使“我”感到难以置信。

【1】句意：他很惊讶于见到我。

根据上文“For the first time on our long voyage”及首字母可知，在漫长的旅途中主角第一次去见船长，可推知船长见到主角时很惊讶，且由空格前后单词可知此处考查短语be surprised to 表示惊奇地做某事，吃惊地做某事，故答案为surprised。

【2】句意：他告诉我他在写自传。

根据句意及首字母，此处考查短语life story人生故事，自传。故答案为story。

【3】句意：在他死之前，他会把它装进瓶子丢进海里。

在死之前才可能亲自把瓶子丢进海里，所以选择连词before。故答案为before。

【4】句意：我问他是否能让我们离开鹦鹉螺号。

根据下文“We will try to escape”可知，主角那群人想要离开鹦鹉螺号。故答案为leave。

【5】句意：我告诉过你，你们永远别想离开。

根据“We will try to escape”可知，主角他们先得到船长的不同意，这才想到逃跑，所以此处船长跟他说永远不能离开。故答案为never或not。

【6】句意：尼德既失望又愤怒。

根据后文他说的话，即使天气糟糕也想逃跑，可知尼德当时心情很愤怒。故答案为angry。

【7】句意：“我们会设法逃跑，即使天气很糟糕。”他说。

根据后文“the weather was worse than bad”可知，天气比他们认为的糟糕更加恶劣，所以前文所说的就是天气。故答案为weather。

【8】句意：是大风暴。

根据后文提及的“waves”，“the strong wind”，“the thunder”及首字母提示可知，他们在历经一场海上风暴。故答案为storm。

【9】句意：站在强风中是不可能的。

根据前文“the waves rose above the submarine and crashed onto it.”及首字母提示可知，海浪从潜艇上方升起，撞向潜艇，人不可能站立于狂风暴雨中。故答案为impossible。

【10】句意：海浪声、风声、电闪雷鸣声，震耳欲聋。

由后文单词deafening以及首字母提示可知，这些声音非常嘈杂。故答案为noise。
