提示：

1.       文章第一句話就提到這個詞組；注意完型填空時上下文之間的聯(lián)系；

2.       根據(jù)句意可知是eyes，表示“看表” ；

3.       mush表示“走” ，即使不知道mush的意思，根據(jù)上下文也可以推斷出其意思；

4.       文章第一句就說明了，這是一個 “The dogsled race” ；

5.       根據(jù)題意可知他們停下的目的是補充食物和稍做休息；

6.       stay在這里是一個系動詞，ahead of 表示“領(lǐng)先，甩開” ；

7.       Alaska即“阿拉斯加” 是有名的寒冷之地，另外根據(jù)前文提到狗拉雪橇，可知是在有雪的地方；

8.       keep…warm是保持溫暖的意思，句中提到了fur coat，是“皮衣” ；

9.       as…as knife像刀一樣的肯定是鋒利；

10.   keep…from表示“阻止…,防止…”，此處是防止狗的腳被劃傷這件事；

11.   pull the sled是“拉雪橇” 的意思；

12.   get used to 是習慣于，開始的時候，狗還不習慣，所以拉的慢，因此選still表示“仍然在慢慢習慣這件事” ；

13.   根據(jù)上下文，從第三天開始，狗跑的比開始的時候快了；

14.   as表示“像” 一個團隊那樣；

15.   broke需要加賓語，此處不合適；根據(jù)上下文只能選died。
