解析：1.根据妈妈说的话Can you help?可知,妈妈向女儿提出了帮忙的请求,request符合语境。comment评价,评论;plan计划;order命令。 2.根据下文可知,孩子滑入了八英尺深的化粪池中,池口太小无法施救,所以这位妇女感到很焦虑,故worried正确:disappointed失望的;delighted高兴的;puzzled困惑的。 3.孩子滑入化粪池中,众人应该是围在(surrounding)池子周围,想办法施救。dig挖;block堵塞;watch观察 4.根据语境可判断,两周岁的孩子滑入了八英尺深的化粪池中。run across偶遇;take over接管;slip into滑人;break up打碎,破裂,分解。 5.根据 She knew she was the only one who could...可知,这是她在査看了情况之后得出的结论。examine检査,调査;control控制;disturb打扰,使不安;create创造,创作. 6.上文提到池口只有几英寸,而且下文指出她被放进池中救人,所以她在调査了情况后得知只有她适合穿过狭小的池口。 7.情况紧急,所以她毫不犹豫地让别人把她放进池中。argument争论;hesitation 犹豫;application 申请 8.根据下文 Madison shook her arms and shoulders...可知,她是倒立着进入池中,所以众人应该抓住她的腰和腿 9.根据 into the dark and smelly tank 可知,她穿过了池口(opening)进入了黑暗、恶臭的池中。 10.根据Rather than tended to her injury 可知,在营救过程中,她的一只手严重受伤。 11.由hoping to see the boy可知,Madison扫视水面,希望能发现孩子。 12.由failed to catch his foot可知,她应该是在水中看到了孩子的脚趾头(toes)。 13.下文提到,她成功地抓住了孩子的脚,所以她应该是看到了孩子脚的形状。outline外形;轮廓,符合语境需要。shadow影子;picture 图片,片;smell气味. 14. Madison要营救这个孩子,所以判断她紧紧地(tightly )抓住了孩子的脚。strangely奇怪地;carefully认真地;clearly清楚地,明白地。 15.根据He had been so short of oxygen...以及众人的急救,可知他并没有摆脱困境。out of shape 变形;out of work 失业;out of sympathy 出于同情;out of trouble摆脱困境。 16.小男孩缺氧时间过长,下文提到一个大人在他背部拍打,使他咳出了液体,由此可知小男孩无法呼吸。 17.由the boy coughed up fluids可知,一个大人应该是在孩子的背部拍打,故tapped正确, 18.由stayed there for her injury可知,Madison比小男孩花费了更长时间来恢复健康。 19.小男孩不久之后就回家了,但是她却留了下来治伤,两句之间为转折关系,故however正确. 20.小男孩的妈妈对Madison充满了感激,认为她是个女英雄,由此推断她说“其他什么十几岁的女孩儿能主动进入化粪池呢?"long渴望;pretend假装;volunteer自愿;fear恐惧,担心.
