【解析】本文主要讲述哥哥Farid不让弟弟Zaki去海里潜水采牡蛎，Zaki便努力练习潜水，势要在水下憋气比赛中赢得哥哥从而获得去采牡蛎的许可；但在比赛时，Zaki看到哥哥为了赢得比赛而在水下苦苦坚持，他就让哥哥赢了比赛，哥哥知道弟弟为自己做的事情后也同意他去潜水采牡蛎。
11．句意：Zaki请求和Farid一起去，但Farid总是拒绝，因为他个子太小。
I我；she她；he他；it它。根据“Zaki asked Farid to go along, but Farid always refused because…was too small.”可知，哥哥Farid不让弟弟Zaki一起去潜水采牡蛎是因为Zaki个子太小，此处应用指代男性的代词“he”指代“Zaki”。故选C。
12．句意：整个早上，Zaki都会在海浪下练习潜水。
fishing钓鱼；diving潜水；surfing冲浪；swimming游泳。根据上文“Zaki asked Farid to go along, but Farid always refused…”可知，Zaki请求和Farid一起去潜水采牡蛎，但Farid总是拒绝，所以弟弟Zaki为了能跟着去潜水采牡蛎便努力练习潜水。故选B。
13．句意：随着每天的练习，他的潜水水平提高了，他可以多憋一会儿气了。
though尽管，虽然；unless除非；but但是；and并且。分析句子可知，“his diving improved”和“he could hold his breath a little while longer”表达的是相同的意思，所以此空应填表并列关系的连词and。故选D。
14．句意：第二天早上他起得很早。
put up张贴；got up起床；turned up调高（音量）；made up编造。根据下文“…he had to hurry to catch up with his brother…”可知，Zaki得赶紧追上哥哥，所以他要早起。故选B。
15．句意：尽管如此，他还是得赶紧追上已经在海滩上的哥哥。
even甚至；only仅仅；already已经；ever曾经。根据“He got up early the next morning. Even so, he had to hurry to catch up with his brother who was…on the beach.”和选项可知，弟弟Zaki需要早起来追上哥哥Farid，由此可知Farid应该很早就赶往海滩，所以他现在已经在海滩上了。故选C。
16．句意：如果我在水下屏住呼吸的时间比你长，请允许我潜水。
allow允许；wish祝愿；push推；order命令。根据第一段“Zaki asked Farid to go along, but Farid always refused…”可知，Zaki请求和Farid一起去潜水采牡蛎，但Farid总是拒绝，结合“If I can hold my breath under the water longer than you…”可推知，Zaki想通过赢得水下憋气的比赛来获得哥哥Farid一起去潜水采牡蛎的允许。故选A。
17．句意：听到这句话，Zaki感到很生气，“我不会的！”
tired累的；angry生气的；bored感到厌倦的；surprised惊讶的。根据上文“What happens when you lose?”可知，Zaki认为哥哥还没看到他的表现就先入为主说他会输，这让努力练习潜水很久的Zaki感到生气。故选B。
18．句意：那是他唯一的选择。
excuse借口；purpose目的；interest兴趣；choice选择。根据上文“Farid looked surprised but agreed.”可知，Farid虽看起来惊讶但还是同意了比赛，由此可知同意比赛是Farid的唯一选择。故选D。
19．句意：他们走进大海，直到大海足够深，然后潜入大海。
private私人的；far离得较远的；cold寒冷的；deep深的。根据“...it was…enough and dived into it.”和选项可知，他们要找一块较深的海域才能潜入水中。故选D。
20．句意：他知道Farid并不期待有任何激烈的竞争。
instruction指导；competition竞争，比赛；introduction介绍；conversation交流。根据上文“Zaki opened his eyes and found Farid was smiling.”可知，Farid在水中憋气时还笑着，由此可知他认为他会轻松赢得比赛，也就是说他认为这个比赛不会有任何激烈的竞争就会得出结果，“competition”符合文意。故选B。
21．句意：慢慢地，笑容变成了忧虑的表情。
Slowly慢慢地；Luckily幸运地；Secretly秘密地；Carefully仔细地。根据上文“Farid was smiling with confidence.”和下文“Farid was realizing that Zaki could possibly beat him.”可知，刚开始Farid还自信地笑着，随着时间的流逝，他意识到Zaki可能会打败他，所以Farid的笑容慢慢地变成了忧虑的表情。故选A。
22．句意：但当看着Farid的眼睛时，Zaki突然明白了失败对他哥哥意味着什么。
agreed同意；ignored忽视；understood明白，理解；remembered记住。根据上文“As more seconds passed, huge pain was showing on Farid’s face.”可知，即使憋气憋得很痛苦，Farid依旧在坚持着，看着这样不想输掉比赛的哥哥，Zaki突然明白了哥哥不想失败的原因。故选C。
23．句意：几乎没有思考，Zaki用脚一伸，在Farid的头出现在他身边之前，他浮到了水面。
after在……之后；before在……之前；until直到；by通过。根据上文“He would be laughed at for losing to a child.”可知，哥哥Farid失败的话会被人嘲笑，所以为了不让哥哥被嘲笑，弟弟Zaki主动输掉比赛，因此Zaki会比哥哥先浮出水面，也就是“在Farid的头出现在Zaki身边之前，Zaki先浮到了水面”。故选B。
24．句意：海滩上的每个人都为Farid欢呼。
Anybody任何人；Somebody某人；Nobody没有人；Everybody所有人。根据上文“…Zaki kicked his feet and rose to the surface of the water before Farid’s head appeared beside him.”和选项可知，Farid后来才浮出水面，所以他赢得比赛，因此所有人都为他欢呼。故选D。
25．句意：Zaki知道他们都明白了，造就一个男人需要的不仅仅是体力。
confidence自信；strength体力；kindness仁慈；knowledge知识。根据“…it takes more than…make a man.”和选项可知，男人有优势的是体力，所以此处应表达为“造就一个男人需要的不仅仅是体力”。故选B。
