文章大意：关于海洋你知道些什么？有些人经常看到它，但是其他人没有看见。海洋在晴朗的好天气里看起来很美丽，数百万的人希望到海边度假。他们可以在里面游泳，或躺在阳光下的海滩上，他们享受他们自己。下文向我们介绍了死海因盐度大，很容易在里面游泳，没有人害怕会沉在里面。

【1】考查连词。根据Some people often see it有些人经常看到它，the others don't其他人没有看见，前后是一种转折关系，结合选词，故答案选C。

【2】考查形容词。根据They can swim in it，or lie on the beaches in the sun他们可以在里面游泳，或躺在阳光下的海滩上，说明人们喜欢海洋，根据The sea looks___2___on a fine sunny day，其中looks是一个系动词，这里需要一个形容词作表语，结合选词，推测意思是海洋在晴朗的好天气里看起来很美丽，故用beautiful“美丽的”，故答案选B。

【3】考查名词。根据They can swim in it，or lie on the beaches in the sun他们可以在里面游泳，或躺在阳光下的海滩上，说明人们喜欢海洋，结合选词，推测意思是数百万的人希望到海边度假，联想到固定短语take one’s holiday “度假”，这是一个可数名词，数百万人的假期，故用复数holidays“假期”；故答案选D。

【4】考查动词。根据They can swim in it，or lie on the beaches in the sun他们可以在里面游泳，或躺在阳光下的海滩上，结合选词，推测意思是他们“玩得高兴”，即固定短语enjoy oneself，结合选项，故答案选A。

【5】考查名词。根据Of course，the sea is very large当然，大海很大。结合选词，推测意思是看一幅世界地图，前面被a修饰，故用单数名词map地图，构成短语look at a map；故答案选B。

【6】考查名词。根据句意There are a lot of___6___in the sea.有许多的___6___在海里，结合选项，可知islands“岛屿”符合题意，故答案选D。

【7】考查形容词。根据Some of them are big and the others are___7___一些是大的，另外一些是___7___，结合选词，推测意思是一些是大的，另外一些是小的，这里and连接两个并列成分，故用big的反义词small小的；故答案选A。

【8】考查名词。根据you may know that the water is salty（咸的），你可能知道水是咸的，结合选词，推测意思是河流从陆地携带盐到大海，故用salt盐，这是一个不可数名词，用单数即可，故答案选C。

【9】考查情态动词。根据Do you know the Dead Sea?你知道“死海”吗？由“死海”可知，鱼不能在其中生存；故答案选C。

【10】考查动词。根据And people can easily swim in it.人们很容易在里面游泳，可知人们不怕会沉到水里去，sink “下沉”；故答案选B。
