  Tim   5   to a neighborhood watch group in Stoneville, Indiana, USA.The neighborhood watch group   6   on the third Wednesday of every month.That’s   7   Tim gets together with about ten of his neighbors to discuss community   8  .Members of the neighborhood watch group want to help the police   9   their homes, streets and families safe.

  Tina Stedma, president of   10   neighborhood watch group, agrees with Tim.

  “People seem to think that crime happens to other people but not   11   them.Well, it’s never happened to me,” she said, “but I don’t think anyone has the   12   to steal from other people or, to make them feel   13   sitting in their own homes.”

  Alex, a member of the group, said that all the neighbors   14   out for one another.“We   15   each other’s homes.We keep watch on the neighborhood at night and on weekends.Usually a   16   of four or five of us goes out together.If something doesn’t look right, then we call the   17  .For example, if we notice a group of teenagers who seem to be looking for   18  , or someone destroying property(財產(chǎn)),we report to the police.”

  Alex feels the neighborhood watch groups   19   a lot in keeping crime down.Her husband Jim agrees, “Police are good people, but they can’t do   20  ”.

解析:

(1)

just在這里等于merely“僅僅”。從下文看,Tim是社區(qū)治安隊隊員,他開車買東西時,不只是去商店,然后回家。yet“然而”;still“仍然”;rather“相當(dāng)”。

(2)

從上下文可知,Tim是治安聯(lián)保隊隊員。他在開車買東西時,仔細(xì)地觀察周圍的情況,以便發(fā)現(xiàn)問題。clearly“清楚地”;nervously“緊張地”;coldly“冷靜地”。

(3)

unusual為“異常的”,只有發(fā)生了不正常的事才表明出現(xiàn)了問題,如陌生的車輛、大的噪音、破碎的窗子或者人們聚集在街頭角落里等。A項表示,“熟悉的”,C項“昂貴的”和D項“有趣的”,都與文章不符。

(4)

拉上窗簾的窗戶(curtained windows)、開著的窗戶(open windows)或舊的窗戶(old windows)都不能說明發(fā)生了意外的事。只有破碎的窗戶(broken windows)才可能是發(fā)生了意外的事。

(5)

belong to“屬于”。從上下文可知,Tim是Stoneviile,Indiana,USA的治安聯(lián)保隊隊員。Attend to“照料”,go to:“去……”,與文意不符;turn to表“轉(zhuǎn)向”。

(6)

A項表示“碰頭,聚在一起開會”,從下文中的discuss一詞可知,他們在每月的第三個星期三舉行會議,討論社區(qū)的安全問題。Quarrels“吵架”,searches“搜查”均不合題意。sings更不合文意。

(7)

這是一個表語從句。that指代的是他們開會的時間,所以填when。而where, why, how文章沒提到。

(8)

safety為“安全”之意,因為治安聯(lián)保隊的目的是保衛(wèi)社區(qū)的安全,所以他們討論的是社區(qū)的安全問題,而不是討論政治(politics)、財產(chǎn)(wealth)或健康(health)問題。

(9)

protect有很大的迷惑性,許多考生沒有注意這個句子的結(jié)構(gòu),而誤選了protect。在這個句子中,their homes, streets, and families作賓語,safe作賓語補(bǔ)足語。只有keep能構(gòu)成這種結(jié)構(gòu),意思是:保衛(wèi)他們住房、街道和家庭成員的安全。

(10)

一個社區(qū)是由許多住戶組成的,所以要填their。

(11)

happen to sb.“某人發(fā)生了某事”。but連接的成分與前面(to other people)相同,所以要填介詞to。句意:人們似乎認(rèn)為,犯罪發(fā)生別人身上而不會發(fā)生在自己身上。

(12)

right作名詞的意思是“權(quán)力”。任何人都沒有偷別人東西的權(quán)力。B為“機(jī)會”;C為“勇氣”;D為“思想”均不合文意。

(13)

unsafe為“不安全”的意思,全文討論的是保衛(wèi)社區(qū)安全問題。這里句意為:但是我認(rèn)為,任何人都沒有偷別人的東西或使別人呆在家里感到不安全的權(quán)力。unlucky“不幸的”;disappointed“失望的”;discouraged“泄氣的”均不合題意。

(14)

look out“注意”。為了保證社區(qū)的安全,鄰居們都互相注意對方的安全問題。set out“出發(fā)”;let out“發(fā)出”;holdout“給予”均不合文意。

(15)

watch one’s homes“看家”。鄰居們互相看家。care作及物動詞時的意思是“介意,計較”;enter“進(jìn)入”;manage“管理”都不符合短文的內(nèi)容。

(16)

a group of“一組,一群”。平常人們四五個人結(jié)隊出去。a set of的意思是“一套”。a number of許多;a crowd of人群,這兩個短語都不和含有數(shù)詞的賓語連用。因為這句話中有數(shù)詞,所以不能作為答案。

(17)

一旦發(fā)生問題要和警察取得聯(lián)系。根據(jù)上下文,涉及安全,應(yīng)找警察。A為“法官”;C為“消防隊員”;D為:“醫(yī)生”均不合文意。

(18)

looking for trouble“找麻煩”。當(dāng)他們注意到一伙年輕人在找麻煩或有人損壞財產(chǎn),他們就會向警察報告。A為“找工作”;B為“負(fù)擔(dān)”;C為“服務(wù)”,根據(jù)上下文應(yīng)是“麻煩”。

(19)

社區(qū)治安聯(lián)保隊起到了很大的作用;他們幫助警察使犯罪率下降。

(20)

“not everything”為部分否定,雖然警察在保衛(wèi)人們的財產(chǎn)和生命安全方面起到了很大作用,但是他們也不可能什么事都能做到。所以Jim說,“警察都是些好人,但是他們不可能做所有事情”。而do harm表示“傷害”,do wrong表示“做錯事”。

Just listen

  I suspect that the most basic and powerful way to connect to another person is to listen.Just listen.Perhaps the most important thing we ever give each other is our   1  , and especially if it’s given from the   2  .When people are talking, there’s no need to do anything but   3   them.Just take them   4  .Listen to what they’re saying.Care about it.Most times caring about it is even more important than   5   it.

  One of my patients told me that when she   6   to tell her story, people often   7   to tell her that they had once had something just like what happened to her.Subtly, her pain became a story about themselves.  8   she stopped talking to most people.It was just too   9  .We connect through listening.When we interrupt what someone is saying to let them know that we understand.we move the   10   of attention to ourselves.But when we listen, they know we care.

  I have ever learned to   11   to someone crying by just listening.in the old days I used to reach for the tissues(紙巾)  12   I realized that passing a person a tissue may be just another way to shut them   13  , to take them out of their   14   of sadness and pain Now I just listen.When they have cried all they need to cry, they find me there   15   them.

  This   16   thing has not been that easy to learn.It certainly went against everything I had been   17   since I was very young at school.I thought people listened only because they were too   18   to speak or did not know the answer.A loving silence often has far more   19   to connect than the most well-intentioned   20

Serious Business

  Let me take you   1   a couple of years.Come with me as we relearn a lesson, one that has stuck with me, in my present memory, and   2   me yet.

  We walked into Elida Road Hardware, an old-fashioned hardware store.No automatic door, not a computer in the building.It was one that I went to fairly often.As we entered the door, two sounds   3   us.The sleigh bells of last year made that sweet, peaceful tinkle as we opened the door.The other sound was the electronic beeper that reminded Andy of our   4  

  "Good afternoon, Ryan,"  5   the cheerful greeting.Andy was a very   6   sort of owner.He was of medium build and height, and the smile on his face welcomed us.

  "Just a spring for an old-fashioned screen door."

  "That's it.A screen door spring.Right down there." We   9   where he was pointing, and sure enough, there they were.Andy knew his store, and his products.That was why I came here instead of Meijer.The service couldn't be beaten.The price-Yes.But service and   10  -No.

  He handed me the ticket and as I   14   it I asked, "You really trust my signature?"

  His reply surprised,   15   delighted, me."When I can't trust Jerry Hoover's boys I can trust nobody!"

  We left, and the brain   16   started to forget things, in order of importance.But what Andy said that day rang in my ears.And it rings in my ears today.That's a tall order to live up.to.It's a high standard of   17  .My father made a fame for that name, and I get to   18   the benefits.But on account of this, I must   19   that fame.And that's   20   business.

Unchangeable Love

  One day I visited an art museum while waiting for my husband to finish a business meeting.I was expecting a quiet   1   of the splendid artwork.

  A young   2   viewing the paintings ahead of me   3   nonstop between themselves.I watched them a moment and decided the lady was doing all the talking.I admired the man's   4   for putting up with her   5   stream of words.  6   by their noise, I moved on.

  I met them several times as I moved   7   the various rooms of art.Each time I heard her continuous flow of words, I moved away   8  

  I was standing at the counter of the museum gift shop making a   9   when the couple approached the   10  .Before they left, the man   11   into his pocket and pulled out a white object.He   12   it into a long stick and then tapped his way into the   13   to get his wife's jacket.

  "He's a   14   man." the clerk at the counter said."Most of us would give up if we were blinded at such a young age.During his recovery, he made a promise his life wouldn't change.

  So, as before, he and his wife come in   15   there is a new art show."

  "But what does he get out of the art?" I asked."He can't see."

  "Can't see! You're   16  .He sees a lot.More than you and I do," the clerk said."His wife   17   each painting so he can see it in his head."

  I learned something about patience,   18   and love that day.I saw the patience of a young wife describing paintings to a person without   19   and the courage of a husband who would not   20   blindness to change his life.And I saw the love shared by two people as I watched this couple walk away, hand in hand.
