”和空后“hewascyclingalittleslowerthanmethanIdecidedtotrytocatchupwithhim.”可知，那个人在作者前面，所以作者看得出他骑得有点慢，所以应选用tell；情态动词could后接动词原形。故填tell。【37题】句意：在转弯之前我还要骑一公里左右。上文说那个人在作者前面250米处，作者决定要赶上他，这里是说还要骑一公里才转弯。此处是before引导的时间状语从句。故填before。【38题】句意：我开始骑得越来越快，所以我离他更近了一点。根据后一句“AfterafewminutesIwasonlyabout100metersbehindhim,

”可知，作者骑得越来越快，离他越来越近，几分钟之后，就在那人身后100米的地方了。closeto接近，而faster是比较级，所以close也应用比较级closer。故填closer。【39题】句意：几分钟之后，就在那人身后100米的地方了，于是我加快了速度，让自己竭尽全力。根据“Ireallypickedupthepace.
