【解析】　本文是一篇记叙文。全文讲述了一名纽约人Michael Greenberg助人为乐的故事。Michael Greenberg是一位商人，但是他与其他商人不一样，每年冬天他都要赠送大量的手套给穷人，因为他觉得赠送手套虽然是件小事，但是在冬天里对别人却是非常重要的。

1.

2.2】解析：选D。根据后文第五段第二句中的many poor New Yorkers know him...以及常识可知，冬天的时候穷人可能没手套，所以尤其是那些“穷人”知道他。

3.3】解析：选B。联系空前的he is“Gloves” Greenberg我们知道，那些人叫他“Gloves” Greenberg，因此本句句意应该是“他是如何得到那个名字(name)的？”。

4.4】解析：选B。联系前文He looks like any other businessman(他与其他商人看上去一样)以及空前的But(表转折)可知，此处应填different(不一样的)。

5.5】解析：选A。联系后面的定语从句who look at the sidewalk and ____21____the street可知，look at 及21空都是路人的动作，所以选act。

6.6】解析：选C。联系常识我们知道，在冬天人们在街上急急忙忙地走，而且前半句意思为“看着人行道”，所以不可能选B(开车沿街走)。keep off远离……；cross over穿过(道路等)。二者均不符合句意，故排除。

7.7】解析：选B。联系前文可知Mr.Greeberg不像其他纽约人，他不看道路，而且从下文我们知道他在找没戴手套的人，所以他看人(people)。

8.8】．解析：选D。句意：当看到(see)没戴手套的人时，他会停下来。

9.9】．解析：选C。联系前文我们知道，他给人手套后，会继续找没戴手套的人，所以他会继续往前走(move on)。其他三个选项的意思是：hold up举起；阻碍；hang out 闲逛；turn around转身。

10.0】解析：选A。Mr.Greenberg在寻找没戴手套的人，根据常识可知，没戴手套的人当然是手(hands)冷。

11.1】解析：选C。联系前文我们知道Mr.Greenberg发放手套给穷人，所以此处为give away(赠送，发放)。其他三个选项的意思是：search for 寻找；store up贮存；put on穿上，均与语境不符。

12.2】．解析：选D。结合前文可知，他在冬天的时候发放手套，那么在一年中的其他时候，他当然就得买(buy)手套。

13.3】解析：选B。句意：听说了他的人就送手套给他，因此他的公寓里有许多手套。

14.4】解析：选C。Mr.Greenberg 21年前就开始(began)给大街上没戴手套的人送手套了。delay耽误；remember记得；enjoy喜欢。

15.5】解析：选A。因为他的这种做法由来已久，所以许多纽约的穷人认识他，理解他的行为。

16.6】解析：选D。根据句首的But可知，也有人不理解他的做法，所以感到吃惊(surprised)。be sorry for为……遗憾；be satisfied with对……感到满意；be proud of 以……为骄傲。

17.7】解析：选D。根据最后一段的第二句话可知，他这样做只是想让人感到快乐(happy)。

18.8】解析：选B。根据后面的Michael’s father always helped the poor...可知，Michael的父亲就总是帮助穷人，所以帮助人的这种行为是世代相传(run in the family)的。

19.9】解析：选C。联系前文可知，Michael的父亲认为帮助他人会让别人更快乐，Michael也是这样想的。

20.20】解析：选A。一副手套虽然是微不足道的东西，但在冬天却能起大作用。与make a big difference相对，选small。
