Answer 1

【答案】

【1】close

【2】at least

【3】As a result

【4】take part

【5】in need

【解析】

对话大意：对话就参加第二届溧水半程马拉松赛引出话题，围绕这一话题讲了各自的参与形式等内容。

【1】根据题干可知my和friends之间缺少形容词作修饰语，用close表示“亲近的”。故答案为close。

【2】根据题干“I ran for ______ an hour every day.”可知此处需要填写词语修饰时间，用at least an hour表示至少一小时。故答案为at least。

【3】根据下文“I finished it within 1:45:26”是比赛的结果，前面用As a result引出结果。故答案为As a result。

【4】结合所在句意“对我来说，最重要的不是赢得奖牌，而是______”可推出是说重在参与，用动词短语take part。故答案为take part。

【5】根据题干可知此处缺少athletes的后置定语；结合句意“我为马拉松赛做志愿者，帮助_____运动员”可推出是说有需要的运动员，用短语in need。故答案为in need。
