【解析】

羅杰總是欺負(fù)我，但是有一天他們合力救了落水的司機(jī)，羅杰又救了我的經(jīng)歷，讓作者對他有了改觀。

【1】

句意：他比我大三歲，總是想欺負(fù)我。

me我；us我們；him他；them他們。根據(jù)后文“Roger always tried to___3___me and hold me under.”可知，羅杰想要欺負(fù)我。故選A。

【2】

句意：在我們農(nóng)場附近，有一條美麗的小河，夏天附近的孩子們經(jīng)常在那里游泳。

farm農(nóng)場；river河流；bridge橋；beach沙灘。根據(jù)后半句“where kids nearby often swam in summer.”可知，孩子們經(jīng)常游泳，所以此處應(yīng)表示“有一條河”。故選B。

【3】

句意：我們在河里時(shí)，羅杰總想抓住我，把我壓在水下面。

call打電話；save救，節(jié)約，儲(chǔ)存；teach教；catch抓住。根據(jù)后文“I would dive down before he could reach me.”可知，羅杰是想要抓我。故選D。

caring about關(guān)心；laughing at嘲笑；looking for尋找；worrying about擔(dān)心。分析上下文可知，我在他抓到我之前潛水游走了，但是羅杰還在原地找我。其他三項(xiàng)不符合語境，故選C。

sad悲傷的；angry生氣的；excited激動(dòng)的；surprised驚訝的。根據(jù)后文“One day, we were about to leave after swimming when a truck unexpectedly rushed out of the bridge and fell onto the water.”可知，一輛卡車意外地沖出橋，掉在水里，所以我們都驚訝地說不出話來。故選D。

left離開；failed失敗；passed傳遞；missed錯(cuò)過。根據(jù)下句“Roger lifted a rock and broke the windscreen.”可知，因?yàn)槲覀儑L試打開門失敗了，所以羅杰才拿石頭砸破了風(fēng)擋玻璃。故選B。

Inside在……里面；Across穿過（平面）；Behind在……后面；Through穿過（內(nèi)部）。分析句子可知，羅杰砸破了擋風(fēng)玻璃，出現(xiàn)了一個(gè)洞，此處指穿過風(fēng)擋玻璃，指內(nèi)部的穿過。故選D。
