    We stepped in behind him．At first，he（37）Cto be having difficulty getting his groceries onto the counter．But after a while，I realized that what he was actually doing was（38）D it into two parts．
     I offered to help，but he and the checkout lady had it under control．He asked Julie if she would mind putting his（39）Abasket away．Then he（40）D for his wallet which was in a bag on one side of his chair．The way he was positioned and the fact he only had one usable arm（41）Cthis troublesome for him，so I helped there．
The checkout operator came around and gave him his（42）D and the goods he needed to have to hand．She（43）Bone bag of groceries over a handle at the back of his chair．
    I offered to get the other bigger bag and he said，"No．But you could do me a favor．Take that bag along to the entrance and give it to Angela．"

7．Ever since Canadian psychiatrist Michael R．Phillips，who works in China，released his report saying China's suicide rate from 1995to 1999reached 0.023percent，the country has been ranked among those with the highest suicide rates in the world．But Jing Jun，a professor of sociology in Tsinghua University，challenges that view and presents the true picture through his nationwide research．
Jing and his students took one year to set up the first national database on suicide rate to grasp the overall trend of suicides in China．They collected data from the Health Statistics Annuals of the World Health Organization （sample size 10million），and the country's Health Statistics Annuals （which cover 100million people）．The database covers 23years，from 1987to 2009．Jing calculates the suicide rate in China based on these data．Though the suicide rate was comparatively high in the early years，his study shows it has dropped in recent years，as opposed to the ascending trend in the rest of the world．
According to Jing's calculation，China's suicide rate had dropped to about 0.01percent in 2004．In 2009，the figure dropped further to 0.007percent，which is rather low compared with the global rate of 0.016percent．Even if the"missing"suicides were added，China's suicide rate in 2009would still be below 0.008percent．
Jing has found that one of the main reasons why the suicide rate has dropped was the steady and big decline in the number of suicides committed by rural women．In the early years，researchers generally agreed that the suicide rate among Chinese women was higher than among men，which is pretty rare in the rest the world．But the suicide rate among Chinese women，especially in rural areas，has declined remarkably in recent years．In fact，it is almost equal to that of Chinese men．
As a sociologist，Jing regards suicide as a social issue，and believes improvement of social policies will reduce the suicide rate even further．More people's lives can be saved if the authorities adjust to social environment for the better，he concludes．

41．From Jing's search，we can seeC．
A．China has been ranked among those with the highest suicide rates in the world
B．in the rest of the world suicide rate has been rising quickly in the last few years
C．different from Michael R．Philip's idea，the trend of suicides in China is declining
D．the suicide rate among Chinese women is lower than that of men
42．The data in Para.2is mainly to prove thatA．
A．the result from Jing's research is believable
B．Jing's research is more complicated than Michael R．Phillip's
C．Jing has made great efforts to make the research
D．China's suicide rate was comparatively low all the time
43．Why has the suicide rate in China dropped steadily according to Jing Jun？C
A．Because the life level of Chinese people has improved a lot．
B．Because China's government has adopted measures to reduce the suicide rate．
C．Because the number of Chinese women who commit suicide has declined．
D．Because the world environment affects the suicide rate in China．
44．In Jing's opinion，what should be done to reduce the suicide？B
A．Pay more attention to rural women．
B．Continue to improve social environment．
C．Set up more mental health centers．
D．Make policies to prevent suicides．

4．Leaving for work one morning，I noticed that my newspaper hadn't been delivered yet．Since I always took it to work，it （36）A me that I would have to stop at the store and pick one up．I was already running late，but figured I could make it if I hurried．It was putting me in a （37）C mood．
As I pulled into the parking lot of the （38）B to get a newspaper，I noticed a young man in a wheelchair who seemed to be （39）C with his wheelchair．"I'm sure he's all right"，I thought，"or if he's not，someone else will help him．"
（40）A by the customers and cars that were passing him by，I guessed they were thinking the （41）C thing．I got out and walked over to see what the （42）B was．
"Is there anything I can do？"I asked．I noticed he wasn't able to （43）D，and was still struggling with the wheelchair．
I （44）B at the wheelchair and noticed that the clamp（夹锁） holding the electronic keyboard and chair controls had （45）D loosened，causing the equipment to slip down，out of his reach．
I pulled it back into （46）C．His hand pulled over to the keyboard and he hit a single key．An electronic voice said，"Thank you．"
I felt a wave of gratitude come over me．I was truly blessed to have the physical （47）D that allowed me to live a normal life．The young man helped me gain a new way of thinking in life．
