【解析】
美国ABC电台的节目“你会怎么做”的目的是为了提醒人们和那些需要帮助的人站在一起。本文记叙了上周该节目的内容。工作人员设计盲人购物时被少找钱的场景来考验周围见状的顾客会怎么做。首先一位女士率先站了出来,然后越来越多的顾客也站了出来。
【1】句意:这个节目是新闻记者John Quinones 3个月前开始的。
start与主语program构成被动的关系,且由时间状语3 months ago可知表示过去发生的事件,因此使用一般过去时的被动语态,一般过去时被动语态结构为“was/were + done”,故答案为was started。
【2】句意:它测试人们看到有人陷入困境时会做什么。
由空格后的内容“...when they see someone in trouble”可知它测试的是当人们看到有人处于困境的时候,他们将会发出的行为,表示将来要发生的事情用一般将来时。一般将来时的谓语动词结构为“will+动词原形”,故答案为will do。
【3】句意:因此,当盲人妇女走进商店,买了一盒蛋糕付款时,店员在给她找零钱时欺骗了她。由空格前的“came”和“bought”可知时态为一般过去时,谓语动词要用动词过去式,pay的过去式为paid,故答案为paid。
【4】句意:对!一位女顾客阻止了店员欺骗盲人。
由空格前的介词“from”可知此处要用“cheat”的动名词形式“cheating”,因为介词后使用动词要用其动名词形式,故答案为cheating。
【5】句意:我们正在制作一个叫做“你会怎么做”的节目。
根据语境“我们正在做一个节目”表示现在正在进行的动作,使用现在进行时。现在进行时谓语动词结构为be doing,主语为we,be动词用are,故答案为are making。
【6】句意:在过去的3个月里,我们在5个城市进行了这个实验。
由时间状语“in the past 3 months”可知句子表达的是从过去发生并持续到现在且还有可能继续持续下去的动作,是现在完成时,谓语动词结构为have/has done;又本空主语为we,不用has,故答案为have played。
【7】句意:然后他采访了第一位顾客,她说有必要帮助需要帮助的人。
It is necessary to do sth. 做某事是必要的,固定句式;It是形式主语,动词不定式做句子真正主语,故答案为to give。
