Question

I believe being honest is one of the greatest gifts. I know they call it a lot of fancy names,   16 upright and straightforward. And it’s still what makes a man a good citizen. This is my code, and I try to live by.

I’ve been in the taxi business for thirty-five years,   17 (know)there is a lot about it that is not so good. Because taxi drivers are tough, people get the wrong impression   18____they are bad. Taxi drivers are just like  19   people. Most of them will act as rude fellows. But almost every week you read in the papers that a taxi driver turns in money or jewels or like that people leave in their cars. Once, I found an emerald ring in my car. I remembered helping a lady  20 a lot of suitcases that day, so I went back to  21    I had dropped her off. It took me almost two days to wait for her in order to return her ring to her. I didn’t get as much as “thank you”. However, I 22   (feel) good because I had done what was right.

As far as I know,  23   (practice) everyone will give you something, because most Americans are fairly generous. I believe in God and try to be  24   good member of my parish（教区）. I try to act toward others like I think God wants me to act. I have been trying this for a long time, and the longer I try, the  25  (easy) it gets.

 other

【解析】

试题分析：

 此处是举例说明honest一词有很多名儿,像。。。。，故用介词like,

 现在分词做伴随状语. I 与know之间构成主动关系，故用现在分词。

 impression后面接一个同位语从句，从句不缺成分，故使用连接词that

 名词前面考虑修饰词，句意，出租车也只是和其他人一样，故填other.

 固定搭配，help sb with sth帮助某人某事，故填with

 介词to 后面接一宾语从句，从句中缺地点状语，使用连接副词where

 第二段主要是叙述过去的一次亲身经历，结合上文可知使用一般故去时，feel 的过去式felt

 根据句子结构的划分，此处做状语，故用practice的副词形式practically

 根据空格后面的member为可数名词单数形式，前面要用冠词修饰，这里表示一个好成员，故用不定冠词a

 the +比较级，the+比较级，越。。。就越。。。。，句意，我尝试的时间越长，就越容易得到。
