Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.‎ ‎ People on a college campus were more likely to give money to the March of Dimes if they were asked for a donation by a disabled woman in a wheelchair than if asked by a nondisabled woman. In another 50 , subway riders in New York saw a man carrying a stick stumble（绊脚） and fall to the floor. Sometimes the victim had a large red birthmark on his 51 ; sometimes he did not. In this situation, the victim was more likely to 52 aid if his face was ‎ spotless than if he had an unattractive birthmark. In 53 these and other research findings, two themes are 54 : we are more willing to help people we like for some reason and people we think 55 assistance.‎ In some situations, those who are physically attractive are more likely to receive aid. 56 , in a field study researchers placed a completed application to graduate school in a telephone box at the airport. The application was ready to be 57 , but had apparently been "lost". The photo attached to the application was sometimes that of a very 58 person and sometimes that of a less attractive person. The measure of helping was whether the individual who found the envelope actually mailed it or not. Results showed that people were more likely to 59 the application if the person in the photo was physically attractive.‎ The degree of 60 between the potential helper and the person in need is also important. For example, people are more likely to help a stranger who is from the same country rather than a foreigner. In one study, shoppers on a busy street in Scotland were more likely to help a person wearing a(n) 61 T-shirt than a person wearing a T-shirt printed with offensive words.‎ ‎ Whether a person receives help depends in part on the "worth" of the case. For example, shoppers in a supermarket were more likely to give someone. 62 to buy milk rather than to buy cookies, probably because milk is thought more essential for 63 than cookies. Passengers on a New York subway were more likely to help a man who fell to the ground if he appeared to be 64 rather than drunk.‎ ‎50. A. study B. way C. word D. college ‎51.

B. follow 遵照,C .evaluate评估与题意差别较大。‎ ‎42.C 考察形容词及句子理解。解题线索在后半句 “so I began to show up to paint more and more ” 作者做的事情变多是Mrs. Neidl信任的结果，说明我是个可信赖（reliable）的人,C选项符合题意。其他三个选项happy 高兴的 lively活泼的和 punctual 准时的都不能表达出这种合理的因果关系。另外迷惑性较大的lively通常用来形容物。 ‎ ‎43. B考察名词及句子理解。引号里是一句鼓励性质的话，而且前面“that year”也是线索，说明这话是她的motto座右铭。迷惑性较大的C选项saying是谚语的意思，往往是人们长期形成的对生活及经验的总结，强调群体性及时间性，故不合适，message 信息，suggestion 建议，不合题意。‎ ‎44.D 考察副词及篇章理解。本题难度较大，解题关键词是介词“over”，表覆盖。选择later 可以理解为“如果没有画好，稍后可以再画一次覆盖在之前的画上。” more更多， Instead 代替， 不合题意。迷惑性最大的是again.表示“再一次、又一次”但是放在这里与over意思重复，paint over it later相当于 paint it again, 故不选A。‎ ‎45.D 考察名词及篇章理解。take risks 固定搭配，冒险。通读全文发现作者是开始很不自信，第四段开头也提示了作者“shy” ,“quiet”‎ ‎,因此动笔画画对他来说是个冒险，是自我突破的过程，文章最后一段也提到了take chances冒险，因此选D。take steps是采取措施、步骤的意思，与文章主题不搭，control 和 charge 都有控制的意思，不合题意。‎ ‎46.A 考察动词及句子理解。Improve upon 改进。线索是本段开头的座右铭“试试吧，我们永远可以重画一次。”因此不存在失败，只存在改进。Act upon按照、对…起作用，look upon 看待、考虑，reflect upon  考虑、回顾，均不符题意。‎ ‎47.C 考察副词及篇章理解。本段主要描写了作者从不敢做到敢做的过程，根据前文提示作者曾很不自信，后来在Mrs. Neidl的鼓励下自信地拿起了画笔，因此选confidently. A easily 容易的。作者超越自我的过程并不容易。B carefully 小心地。创作并不是个小心翼翼的过程。D Proudly 骄傲地。文章中没有任何体现。‎ ‎48.B 考察动词。Be recognized as“被公认为、被承认”。 Introduce 介绍、引入，be identified as“ 被确定是”，有验证身份的意思，be considered as “被认为、被当作”。其中 be recognize as 有“被大家承认、被普遍接受”的意思，表意更准确。‎ ‎49.C 考察动词。解题关键词是“want ”。作者意识到自己想要的是什么，所以用realized. 迷惑项是decided 决定。可以说决定要什么，但不可以说决定想什么，因为想法是不可控制的。Confirm 证实 acknowledge 承认，与题意差别较大。‎ ‎50.A 考察介词。Being with sb 与某人在一起。这里不能选of是因为全文第一句话，Mrs. Neidl是“ one of the directors”，所以不能说是她的团队。Below 和 by 搭配错误。‎ ‎51.B 考察动词。发现了一项爱好和一个未知的世界，选discovered. 迷惑项是developed , 这个词可以与interest 连用表示形成了某种爱好，但是不可以与world连用表示“形成一个未知世界，”故排除。Take interest 取利，foster 培养，均不合适。‎ ‎52.B 考察动词及篇章理解。“她教会我不要去在乎别人认为我该怎么做”，care 在乎，符合文意。Accept 接受，judge 判断 ，wonder 怀疑 均不合文意。‎ ‎53.D 考察形容词及句意理解。Be afraid害怕。前面说Take chance 冒险，后面理所当然说不要怕（失败），而且前文反复出现了afraid 这个词，是全篇的关键词。Bored 无聊的，lazy 懒惰的，sad 伤心的，在文中均无体现。‎ ‎54.A 考察名词及篇章理解。Trust 信任。通读全文会发现文中多次提到Mrs. Neidl对作者的信任，并在第三段明确使用了trust这个词，因此推断出答案。Patience 耐心，curiosity好奇心，interest兴趣，文中均无体现。‎ ‎55.C考察形容词及篇章理解。“她对我的信任激励我完成以前认为不可能的事情”， “never imagined possible” 等于 “imagined impossible.” 认为不可能的，贴合文意。Accessible 容易取得的 enjoyable 有趣的 favorable 有利的赞同的 均不合文意。‎ Passage 3‎ ‎(10·湖南)‎ Parents are busy people.

Researchers found that people 38 the direction of walking every few seconds. The amount of the winding differed from subject to subject.

As I 36 older, I remember my father and I listening to basketball games on the radio. I always fell asleep 37 the game was over. When I woke up in the morning the score sheet with the 38 score on it would be lying 39 me. I’ll always remember that.‎ ‎ On cold mornings my father would bring his bread truck by the house. I used to ride on the floor of that bread truck 40 he delivered the bread to the ‎ stores. The 41 and the warmth from the bread made my mouth water and kept me warm. I’ll always remember that.‎ ‎ My father would 42 all my games. One night before an important game my father told me 43 that he wouldn’t be able to watch the game because he had to deliver the bread and it was a three-hour 44 from his route（路线）. The next day as the game time approached I thought about my dad. I happened to look across the field and 45 saw his bread truck pulling into the stadium. He managed to 46 the game. I’ll always remember that.‎ ‎ Years later I had become a teacher. I’ll never forget the voice on the phone early one morning telling me dad had just been ‎47 in a traffic accident. I could hear my heart ‎48 in my ears. I 49 the phone and went back to my bedroom. After that nothing really 50 to me. I still taught in school 51 I couldn’t focus on my teaching. One day I was on the playground ‎ ‎ ‎52 a little boy walked up to me and grabbed my hand. His hand held mine the same way I used to hold my father’s by the last two 53 . At that moment I found my ‎54 in life again. You see even though my father was gone, he left something with me. He left me his smile, compassion and touch. My purpose was to use those 55 as he did. From that day On I started. I’ll always remember that!‎ ‎36．A．seemed B．grew C．turned D．changed ‎37．A．when B．although C．because D．before ‎1,3,5‎ ‎38．A．fresh B．final C．official D．opposite ‎39．A．across from B．in place of C．next to D．ahead of ‎40．A．as B．so C．until D．unless ‎41．A．smell B．color C．taste D．shape ‎42．A．react B．confirm C．serve D．attend ‎43．A．exactly B．sadly C．slowly D．simply ‎44．A．drive B．walk C．length D．ride ‎45．A．immediately B．hopefully C．surprisingly D．unusually ‎46．A．make B．keep C．take D．win ‎47．A．killed B．injured C．trapped D．saved ‎48．A．strike B．knock C．beat D．hit ‎49．A．held up B．held back C．hung on D．hung up ‎50．A．cared B．mattered C．troubled D．meant ‎51．A．if B．once C．and D．but ‎52．A．while B．after C．when D．before ‎53．A．shoulders B．fingers C．arms D．legs ‎54．A．purpose B．pleasure C．position D．progress ‎55．A．lessons B．prizes C．gifts D．subjects 答案 36.B 37.D 38.B 39.C 40.A 41.A 42.D 43.B 44.A 45.C 46.A 47.A 48.C 49.D 50.B 51.D 52.C 53.B 54.A 55.C
