问题     Linda Jones’s two-year-old son, Reilly, was sharing a hot dog on the deck overlooking her friend Lisa Roth’s swimming pool. One moment Jones was watching Reilly play around with the other children at this【C1】________of moms and kids last July. The next moment he was gone. Jones turned to her friend Maschel Rawlings and asked, "Have you seen Reilly?"
    Rawlings stood, scanned the pool and【C2】________screamed. Reilly was 【C3】________facedown in the deep end. What happened next was a【C4】________textbook response: As Rawlings dived in the pool, 【C5】________the boy, rolled him over and swam him to the edge, their host, Lisa Roth, rushed into the house and called 911. At the pool’s【C6】________, Rawlings handed Reilly up to his mother. His skin was blue, his eyes had rolled back in his head. He wasn’t breathing.
    Jones laid him next to the pool, and Rawlings, who’d taken a CPR course with Jones just four months earlier, 【C7】________began rescue breathing. Hanging up the phone, Roth, a former flight attendant who’d had seven CPR courses over the years, ran back out to the pool and took over CPR from Rawlings. Three long minutes went by with Roth breathing into Reilly’s mouth and performing chest compressions while Rawlings and Jones【C8】________his condition.
    Gradually his color returned, and then, just as paramedics were arriving on the scene, Rawlings looked at Roth. "He’s breathing," she said.
    The【C9】________with which the women acted saved Reilly’s life. Linda Jones finds it hard to express her feelings for her two friends. "I’m eternally【C10】________," she says simply.  "They  did  everything  right."
    A)  noticeable     E) expanding    I) floating     M) gathering
    B)  decisiveness   F) typical      J) initially    N) resumed
    C)  immediately    G) precaution   K) edge         O) suddenly
    D)  monitored      H) grasped      L) grateful
【C1】

答案M

解析 由指示代词this和of可知空白处应为单数名词。根据句中的play around…at可以推断空白处的名词应指小孩玩耍的地方,因此gathering是最适当的词。
