3.going 根据上文中的“he was dying of cancer”及下文中的“Belker slipped peacefully away”可知,当时Belker生命垂危,死亡这一过程并没有完成而是正在进行;结合空格前的“was”及语境可知,此处应为过去进行时,表示当时正在发生。故填going。
4.or 根据句意可知,Shane似乎没有任何困难和困惑地接受了这一事实。句中“difficulty”和“confusion”是并列关系;根据上文中的“without”可知,该句为否定句,在否定句中,or表并列。故填or。

【5】
Do you ever stop and think about this big, beautiful world we live in? It’s home __1__ so many people and animals. We all live in this amazing place, so we all have the __2__ (responsible) to take care of it, too.
