Question

It's a small gas station that has snacks, drinks, cigarettes, and candies. The young man behind the counter knows his   __36__   by name and what they normally want to buy. He treats children and adults with equal   __37__. He reads science fiction behind the counter when business is   __38__.

One day, three people rushed in and grabbed（抓住） food off the shelves as fast as they could,   __39__   not intending to pay for it. He hit the “panic button” , then went over the counter（柜台） and   __40__   the front door. It was obvious that they were homeless, and  equally obvious that they weren't going   __41__   with their ill­gotten（非法获得的） gains. They    __42__   the food and simply crowded together in panic（惊慌地）—knowing the police were   __43__   the way.

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（清理） 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 self­respect and a little bit of hope.

【解析】

试题分析：本文介绍了三个无家可归的年轻人在加油站抢劫食物，加油站的年轻人以一种不同的方式对待他们，给他们自尊和希望。

1.考查名词：从空后的“what they normally want to buy”可知应填customers。选Ｃ

2.考查名词：他平等地对待儿童和成年人。respect“尊重”；  pride“骄傲”；wisdom“智慧”；privilege“特权”。选Ａ

3.考查形容词：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”。选Ａ

4.考查副词：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”。选Ｄ。

5.考查动词：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。选Ｂ

6.考查不定代词：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”。选Ｃ

7.考察后动词：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”。选D。

8.考查介词:他们知道警察快来了。on the way“在途中，即将来临”，是固定搭配。选Ｂ

9.考查形容词：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。 选Ｄ

10.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。选Ａ

11.考查情态动词：如果你们需要食物，你们可以吃一些。选Ｂ

12.考查词组：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”。选Ｃ

13.考查连词：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……”。 选Ａ

14.考查形容词：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”。选Ｂ

15.考查动词：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”。选Ｃ

16.考查形容词：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。选Ｂ。

17.考查名词：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。选Ｄ

18.考查动词：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”。选Ａ

19.考查序数词：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。选Ｂ

20.考查形容词：从a little bit of可知应选small，and连接并列的成分。选Ｃ
