15．Sometimes it is hard for people to ________making a mistake and apologize for it．（　　）
A．admitB．escapeC．riskD．appreciate

分析 有时候，承认犯错并且为之道歉，对于人们来说很难做到．

解答 答案：A．根据it is hard 可知it代指后面的动词不定式，表示做某事很难，所以应该是承认错误很难，因此答案是A admit"承认做了某事"．其他选项的含义分别是B"逃脱"；C"冒险"；D"欣赏"．

点评 考查动词辨析．admit 的用法．
（1）表示"承认做了某事"，其后通常接动名词不接不定式．如：
She admitted having seen us．她承认看到过我们．
I admit breaking the window．我承认打破了窗子．
（2）有时其后接带不定式的复合宾语，但其中的不定式通常应是 to be．如：
She admitted him to be right．她承认他是对的．
You must admit the task to be difficult．你们得承认任务是艰巨的．
（3）有时可后接从句．如：
I admit （that） I was wrong（=I admit my mistake）．我承认我错了．
2．表示"允许进入"、"使能进入"，可指进入某一具体场所也可指进入某一组织机构等．如：
The school admits 200 students every year．这所学校每年招收200名学生．

6．While feelings of disgust can increase behaviors such as lying and cheating，cleanliness can help people return to ethical behavior，according to a recent study by marketing experts at Rice University，Pennsylvania State University and Arizona State University．The study highlights the powerful impact emotions have on individual decision-making．
As an emotion，disgust is designed as a protection．When people feel disgusted，they tend to remove themselves from a situation．The instinct is to protect oneself．People become focused onself'and they're less likely to think about other people．Small cheating starts to occur：If I'm disgusted and more focused on myself and I need to lie a little bit to gain a small advantage，I'II do that．That's the underlying mechanism．
In turn，the researchers found that cleansing behaviors actually keep the self-serving effects of disgust to a minimum．If you can make people think of cleaning products，the likelihood of cheating also goes away．People don't know it，but these small emotions are constantly affecting them．
The researchers conducted three randomized experiments causing disgust through various means．The study involved 600participants around the United States； both genders were equally represented．In one experiment，participants evaluated consumer products such as antidiarrheal medicine（止泻药），and diapers（尿布）．In another，participants wrote essays about their most disgusting memory．In the third，participants watched a disgusting toilet scene from the movie"Trainspotting"．Once effectively disgusted，participants were willing to lie and cheat for financial gain．
In another set of experiments，after falling into the state of disgust on participants，the researchers then had them evaluate cleansing products，such as household cleaners and body washes．Those who evaluated the cleansing products did not engage in deceptive behaviors any more than those in the neutral emotion condition．
At the basic level，if you have environments that are cleaner，people should be less likely to feel  disgusted．If there is less likelihood to feel disgusted，there will be a lower likelihood that people need to be self-focused and there will be a higher likelihood for people to cooperate with each other．
The deeper meaning of the study's findings is that these powerful emotions can be caused by a variety of small things when people are reading the newspaper or listening to the radio．What we found is that unless you ask people，they often don't know they're feeling disgusted．The question is how to make people more self-aware and more thoughtful about the decision-making process．

3．A farmer had some puppies to sell．He painted a sign advertising them on the edge of his yard．
One day，a little boy came to buy one of the puppies．With a whistle（口哨），the farmer called，"Here，Dolly!"Out from the doghouse ran Dolly followed by four little balls of fur．The little boy stood against the fence．His eyes danced with delight．
As the dogs made their way to the fence，the little boy noticed something else inside the doghouse．Slowly another little ball appeared，something wrong with its legs，doing its best to catch up．
"I want that one，"the little boy said．
The farmer knelt down at the boy's side and said，"Son，you don't want that puppy．He will never be able to run and play with you like these other dogs would．"
With that，the little boy stepped back from the fence，reached down and began rolling up one leg of his trousers．In doing so，he showed a steel brace（固定器）running down both sides of his leg attaching itself to a specially made shoe．Looking back up at the farmer，he said，"You see，sir，I don't run too well myself，and he will need someone who understands．"

10．Italians like to say that when it comes to alcohol，they have a sipping （小酌） culture rather than a drinking culture．That means that while Italians may enjoy a glass of wine or beer，they don't usually get very drunk．
That's not true any more．The new study by the Italian National Health Institute found that 63 percent of Italians under age 18 get drunk on the weekends．Now，the city of Milan has created a law that will stop anyone under 16 from buying alcohol．Anyone who sells or gives alcohol to a person under 16 can be fined up to    700．Young people who feel that the new law is unfair should go to the US for some perspective （观点）．The US has the highest drinking age in the world； It's illegal for anyone under 21 to buy alcohol，and stores or restaurants that are caught selling alcohol to people under the legal age risk losing their licenses，
Many young Americans complain that the drinking laws are unfair； They are allowed to vote in elections and join the army at age 18，so why wait another three years just to buy a bottle of beer？
These young people have found help in an unusual place．Last year，more．than 100 presidents of US universities joined together to ask lawmakers to consider changing the drinking age．They argued that the law doesn't stop underage college kids from getting drunk-it just makes them want to drink more．
For now，the law seems unlikely to change．But US teenagers who want alcohol can go north 10 Canada，where the drinking age is 18-19，or south to Mexico where the legal age is 18．Throughout much of Asia，Africa and Europe，the legal drinking age ranges 16-18．
In plenty of places though，the official drinking age is ignored，and even young children can buy alcohol if they have the money to pay for it．
No matter how old you are，you should always be responsible with alcohol．Teenagers in Milan are now learning that their reckless （不顾后果的） drinking behavior may come at a high price．

    C．they don't want to see US teenagers going to neighboring countries for a drink
    D．they believe the law is pushing underage youths toward alcohol instead of stopping them
56．What can we infer from the passage？A
