One day, three people rushed in and grabbed food off the shelves as fast as they could,  __39__  not intending to pay for it.

Imagine what they must have felt like when they were told they didn't have to steal if they were that  __44__. “We have food in the back, expired (到期)but still  __45__  to eat. If you need food, you  __46__  have some.”

They were told to  __47__  what they had dropped and put it back, and then asked to straighten out the mess. They were doing just that  __48__  the police arrived. The officers were told the situation was under control and the police were no longer  __49__.

This wasn't what they had  __50__. They were being treated as human beings who could right the wrong they'd done. Shocked, they quickly followed orders to take turns and use the restroom to clean up.

Soon three  __51__  people walked out with all the  __52__  their arms could hold. They were  __53__  that,if they needed to come back again, they were to ask and not just grab.

And then the young man went back to read until the next customer came in. He would be the  __54__ person in the world to claim he was a hero. But he gave three people something they were in desperate need of—a  __55__amount of self?respect and a little bit of hope.

解析;从空后的“what they normally want to buy”可知应填customers。

答案;C

解析;他平等地对待儿童和成年人。respect“尊重”;  pride“骄傲”;wisdom“智慧”;privilege“特权”。

答案;A

解析;当生意清淡的时候,他就在柜台后面看科幻小说。slow“(生意等)清淡的,冷清的”。

答案;A

解析;从rushed in“闯进来”和grabbed“抢占”可知,这三个人很明显不想付钱。bravely“勇敢地”;reasonably“合理地”;hardly“几乎不”;obviously“明显地”。 

答案;D

解析;他按了应急(呼救)按钮,走过柜台,锁上了前门。从前面可知“有人进来硬抢东西”,所以小伙子应该是去将门锁住,以防罪犯逃脱。panic button应急(呼救)按钮。

答案;B

解析;很明显他们不想带着他们非法获得的东西到任何地方去。ill­gotten gains“不义之财”。

答案;C

解析;他们丢掉食物,仓皇地挤在一起。第四段中的dropped有暗示。in panic“仓皇地,恐慌地”。

答案;D

答案;B

解析;想象一下当他们被告知,如果他们饿了,他们不必偷,他们会是什么感受。联系下句,应选hungry。

答案;D

解析;从expired(到期)but可知:尽管(食物)到期,但仍安全,可放心吃。故safe符合语境。

答案;A

解析;如果你们需要食物,你们可以吃一些。

答案;B

解析;他们被告知捡起他们扔掉的东西,并放回去,然后清理一下弄乱的场面。hold up“阻挡”;hand out“分发”;pick up“捡起”;hand in“递交”。

答案;C

解析;他们正在清理被他们弄乱的场面时突然警察到了。be doing+when是固定搭配,意为“正在做某事突然……”。

答案;A

解析;被告知场面已被控制,就不需要警察了。popular“受欢迎的”;necessary“必要的”;reliable“可靠的”;important“重要的”。

解析;这是他们没想到的。从上文“他们仓皇地挤在一起”可知,他们原以为警察会把他们抓走。want“想要”;desire“要求”;expect“期望”;admire“钦佩”。

答案;C

解析;根据语境可知,不久,三个清洗干净的人手里拿着足够的食物走了出来。

答案;B

解析;从上文的“If you need food”可知,此处是小伙子让这三个无家可归的人拿走了足够的食物。

答案;D

解析;他们被提醒:如果需要再回来,他们可以要,但不要抢。remind“提醒”;warn“警告”;order“命令”;persuade“劝说”。

答案;A

解析;从上文知,这个年轻的小伙子帮助了三个无家可归的人,但事后继续读书直到下一个顾客的到来,由此推知他不去宣扬自己做的事情。

Afraid that her son would be too tired, Ms. Wendy would sometimes tell the boy to skip school, but each time, Fabian would insist on going to school.
“I don’t like it because when I return to school, I don’t know what’s going on,” the 12-year-old boy explained. He suffers for SMA-a neuromuscular(神经肌肉的)disease that leads to weakness in muscles-and gets around in a wheelchair.
Fabian’s determination to excel in his studies was evident when he was disappointed that he got a total score of 236 yesterday in his Primary School Leaving Examination. He was hoping for a score of at least 240, but his mother was full of pride. “I am happy with his results. He’s very motivated,” said Ms. Wendy.
When Fabian was two months old, he was diagnosed with SMA. Ms. Wendy, who used to go to other homes to teach piano lessons, started teaching lessons at home so she could take care of her son. Fabian proved to be a fighter. Ms. Wendy said, “ He would study every day on his own even though he was weak and his spine(脊柱)was already starting to curve quite badly.”
Fabian is also active in the Singapore Disability Sports Council, where he plays boccia(滚球), a ball sport for those who require a wheelchair due to physical disability.
At just 133cm tall and weighing 14kg, he knows that he will have to rely on others all his life. “I’m afraid that when my parents grow older, they will not be able to carry me and that there will be nobody to carry me,” said Fabian. “But for now, I feel lucky that I get to go out and do a lot of things that I thought I couldn’t.”
His dreams aren’t lofty(崇高的)either-all he want to be able to do is work and provide for his parents. “I just want to study hard so that I can be a businessman, like my dad.” He is planning to apply to study at Victoria School.
【小题1】The underlined word “it” in the second paragraph refers to ______.
A. going to school.               B. being absent from school
C. studying hard.                   D. suffering from SMA.
【小题2】We can know from the text that Fabian ______.
