27、手里。put away “收拾好”; take in “吸收,欺骗”; get out“出来”。3D考查副词。这里描述的是真正乞丐的凄惨生活,所以用terribly(很,非常)。4C考查形容词。cruel“残酷的”。不给乞丐钱看起来很残酷。warmhearted “热心肠的”;generous“慷慨的”;considerate“体贴的,考虑周到的”。5C考查副词。不可否认,世界上大部分的宗教都指示我们要慷慨,仁慈,并且把我们拥有的分享给那些比我们不幸的人。strangely “不可思议地”; honestly “真诚地”; surprisingly “出人意料地”。6C考查动词。由and可知,
28、该空应和前面的be openhearted(慷慨的)并列,并且和下文的with构成搭配,所以应选C。share sth with sb意为“和某人分享某物”。7A考查名词。下文说的是对待乞丐的几种不同观点,故选A,意为“论点,观点”。quarrel“争吵”;saying “谚语,言论”;talk “谈话,演讲”。8B考查动词短语。dress up“化妆,乔装打扮”。首先,有些人认为很多城市里的乞丐故意穿着破烂的衣服来看起来可怜,并且事实上通过乞讨过着富足的生活。9C考查名词。make a good living为固定短语,意为“过上好的生活”,故选C。10A考查副词。和上文的First相呼应,
29、故选A。surely “当然,无疑”; possibly “可能地”;then“然后”。11B考查名词。pride“自尊心”。句意为:一个人可以穷,但是即使穷也没理由失掉自尊和自立的观念。goodness“善良”; security“安全”;responsibility“责任,义务”。12B考查动词。receive help“接受帮助”。句意为:有些人认为乞丐应该去当地政府部门接受帮助。produce “生产,制造”;earn“赚”;offer“提供”。13A考查名词。这里指的不同的行乞者有不同的情况,所以选cases。句意为:下最终的结论很难,不同的情况下,我们要用不同方法对待。event
30、“事件”;condition “条件,情况”;state“状态”。14C考查动词短语。them指的是上文所说的cases“情况”,所以用deal with,意为“处理”。go with“伴随”; communicate with “交流”; meet with“偶然遇见,遭受”。15A考查名词。giver “赠予者,捐赠者”。句意为:一些钱可能在某些情况能拯救一个人的命,而且就算钱被浪费了,也不会带走赠予者的美德。receiver “收到者”;villager“村民”;government“政府”。.A16B细节理解题。根据第一段的where he studied for a masters
