做选词填空时，需先明确方框内单词的含义与词性：finish（动词，完成）、result（名词，结果）、race（名词，比赛）、refuse（动词，拒绝）、serious（形容词，严重的）。再结合每个空格的前后语境、词性要求、时态等逐一分析：
1. 空格前有不定冠词a，需填可数名词单数，结合“参加……”的语境，选race；
2. 空格处作谓语，时间状语是“from 1977 to 2016”（过去时间段），需用动词过去式，结合“完成马拉松”的语境，选finished；
3. 空格后是名词disease，需用形容词修饰，结合“疾病”的语境，选serious；
4. 空格处作谓语，主语是第三人称单数Dick，结合转折语境“拒绝医生的建议”，选refuses；
5. 空格前有定冠词the，需填名词，结合“……不重要，爱重要”的语境，选result。

“It’s okay,” he answers.
“You never worry, Grandpa, not like me. I’ll go to my new school. I feel worried about knowing nobody and having no friends.” I sigh.
