I hadn’t even got a chance to enter the store before an African American woman approached me and asked if I would help her return an item. The item she had 36 was intended for her daughter, but she had already received a 37 one. The lady 38 to exchange the item for something else in the store but she was told she needed an ID 39 the deal could not take place.
I went to the 40 with the woman so we could use my ID. The sales associate immediately started 41 her of asking the first 42 person she saw to help her. Although that was 43 , I didn’t understand why it 44 . After all, not everyone is given the opportunity to 45 an ID in this country.
Then, we asked to speak with a manager, who explained that there was no 46 to return the item without a receipt and then went on to say the woman could not 47 she purchased the item.
“ 48 I, a young white female, were to enter the store and request you to make an exchange without a receipt, I would not be 49 the privilege — as I have proof from the past.” I said. He must have realized at that moment what he had done, because he 50 to exchange the item.
There are many valuable lessons in the story. The first is to help a stranger in need. I 51 when the woman asked for my help, but 52 in my head I asked myself, “Why not? What valid 53 do I actually have?” I had none, so I helped her.

【解析】
试题分析：作者通过讲述在商店里帮助一位穷顾客的故事，说明了两个道理：第一，做人应该有一副热心肠；第二，人无论贫富，都是平等的，都应享受同等的权利和地位。
1.A 根据第三段中she purchased the item可知，她买的这件商品本来是为女儿买的。
2.C 根据下文“exchange the item for something else”，应该是他的女儿已经有了类似的东西。
3.B 因为女儿已经有了类似的东西，所以这位妇女想换一件另外的商品。 manage to do是“成功做了某事”的意思。
4.B 根据下一段的内容可知，调换商品需要有ID卡（商家发放的一种顾客身份标识卡）才可以，否则无法调换。
5.A 作者决定帮助这位妇女，于是和她一起走到商店的柜台处。
6.D 根据全文语境可以看出，这位黑人妇女在商店受到了不公正的待遇，被拒绝调换商品。售货员看到她找到作者帮助，十分不礼貌地指责她不应该随便找个人来帮忙。
7.D 考察上下文语境。这位妇女并不认识作者，找到她属于随机行为。因此售货员的话符合事实。
8.B 这位妇女并不认识作者，找到她属于随机行为。因此售货员的话符合事实。
9.A 售货员所指责的情况属实，但作者不明白随便找个人来帮忙就有那么值得关注吗（有什么值得如此大惊小怪的呢）。matter意为“关系重大”。
10.D 毕竟不是所有的人都有机会获得ID卡的。
11.C 根据下文“then went on to say the woman could not 47 she purchased the item.”说明经理要设置退换商品的门槛。经理解释说即使有了ID卡，如果没有收据的话，也是没有办法退换商品的。
12.B 接着上面的话，经理顺水推舟说这位妇女不能证明该商品是在他这里买的。
13.D 经理的这种无赖的行为激怒了作者，于是作者以自己的经历为例来进行反驳：如果我，一位白人女性，到这里要求换货，没有收据，照样我是不会被（你们）拒绝的。因为我有过去的经历为证。
14.C经理的这种无赖的行为激怒了作者，于是作者以自己的经历为例来进行反驳：如果我，一位白人女性，到这里要求换货，没有收据，照样我是不会被（你们）拒绝的。因为我有过去的经历为证。
15.A 从语境可知，经理意识到自己的言行失当，因此同意换商品。
16.C 根据句中but后面的内容可知，作者在妇女请求帮助时，一开始也犹豫过。
17.D 但她很快地调整心态，扪心自问：“为什么不帮她，我有不帮她的正当理由吗？”
18.C但她很快地调整心态，扪心自问：“为什么不帮她，我有不帮她的正当理由吗？”
19.B 从下文可知，这位妇女看起来非常穷。售货员和经理的无礼行为可能与此有关。作者想要表达的是，我们不应该以貌取人（不能通过书的封皮确定一本书的质量）。
20.A 人虽然穷，但有资格和别人享受同等的待遇。
考点：考察人生感悟类短文
点评：作者通过讲述在商店里帮助一位穷顾客的故事，说明了两个道理：第一，做人应该有一副热心肠；第二，人无论贫富，都是平等的，都应享受同等的权利和地位。本文主要是测试学生综合运用语言的能力，即从语篇的角度综合测试阅读理解能力、词汇的掌握和对英语习惯用语的熟悉程度、以及语法规则的灵活运用。考生做题时必须时刻从上下文考虑，不应该只看到所添的词在短语或句子内是否可行。因此，在做题时最好将全文通读一下，了解了全文的意思以后再作答。

The people below traveled abroad. Read the following stories and decide what problem each traveler experienced while traveling.
【小题1】_______ David got lost in an isolated place. To make matter worse, he had an accident and couldn’t walk freely. So he was in great need of timely help.
【小题2】______ Paul had to buy a hamburger and ate it in the park instead of eating his mother’s delicious chicken, with which he couldn’t go through the customs(海关).
【小题3】_____ Ann was stopped at the customs because she was carrying drugs without a doctor’s prescription. How regretted she was not to have done that!
【小题4】_____ Sally offended some of the people in the town she was visiting by wearing inappropriate clothes. She should have found out about local customs and followed them.
【小题5】______ Jack didn’t obtain a transit card when he changed planes at an airport, which made him very worried. There was no doubt that he was not allowed to get on board.
A My mother was worried about me. She cooked me all my favorite 
dishes and put them into a box to take with me on my journey. But the customs officer inspected all the plant and animal products at the airport. Unfortunately it was illegal for me to bring into the country the kind of food my mother had given me and so it all had to be thrown away.
B It was very hot so I put on some shorts and a T-shirt to go sightseeing. I hadn’t gone very far when I found everyone was looking at me, and they didn’t seem friendly to me. One woman even spat on me as I walked past. I decided to get off the crowded streets and so I turned down a small, quiet street.
C During the four-day walking tour, I was amazed by mountain scenery and the ancient ruins we passed on our hike. On the last day, we arrived at the ruins of Machu Picchu in time to see the sunrise over the Andes. I spent the day visiting the ruins of that ancient Inca city before catching the train back to the capital city of the country.
D When I got off the plane at the first airport, I saw someone handing out cards to some of the passengers, but I didn’t know what they were for, so I didn’t take one. When I tried to board the second plane they asked for my transit card, which I didn’t have. I was worried they were going to send me back to London.
E I had been walking for about an hour when suddenly I slipped and fell down a riverbank. I hurt my ankle and couldn’t stand up. I didn’t know how I could get back to the village. I hadn’t told anyone where I was going, so no one would know where to look for me when they realized I was missing.
F When I arrived at my destination, a customs officer at the airport looked in my bag and found the pills in a small box. He wanted to know what the pills were for and why they weren’t in their proper bottle with my name and the doctor’s name on it. I explained that the bottle had been too big and heavy. Then he wanted to know if I had a letter from my doctor explaining about the pills.

“All I could see was two sets of red eyes below me,” said Dave Gatty, an Australian farmer who spent seven days up a tree in remote bush land to escape crocodiles. Gatty, 52, said he was forced to take such drastic action after he accidentally went into a crocodile-infested area of Queensland. He only had two meat sandwiches to keep him going, as crocodiles moved beneath his tree each night until his rescue. Gatty said he decided it was safer to hold out for a rescue team than try to make a run for it. His problems began after he fell off his horse while out in the northern Australia outback. Dazed and bleeding, he climbed back on his horse and hoped it would lead him home. It was only when he regained his senses he realized that he had been taken into crocodile-infested area. “I had to get off the horse and I fell straight into a crocodile nest,” he told reporters.
“That frightened me. I couldn’t go back, it was too far and too dangerous, so I headed to the nearest high ground and stayed there, hoping someone would come and find me before the crocs did.”
Gatty explained how each night two crocodiles would sit at the bottom of the tree staring at him. Although Gatty’s two sandwiches ran out after three days, he was able to get running water during the day and knew rescuers were looking for him as he could see helicopters in the air above his tree.
“If I hadn’t seen the crocs circling me, and if I hadn’t fallen into the croc nest, I would have made a push for it. But I knew the safest thing was for me to sit and wait,” he said. A chocolate bar, given to him by rescuers after being moved to safety by using a winch(卷扬机), “was like a gourmet (delicious)meal,” he said.
1.Gaddy felt _______ when he found himself trapped in the crocodile- infested area.
A. panicked but optimistic B. nervous and hopeless
C. upset and regretful D. frightened but calm
2.Which of the following did not help Gatty survive the accident?
A. Sandwiches B. Running water
C. Chocolates D. Staying up in a tree
3.What’s the right order of the events related to the accident?
a. Gaddy climbed up onto his horse unconscious.
b. Gaddy climbed up a tree and stayed there.
c. Gaddy was moved by a winch to safety.
d. Gaddy fell off his horse accidentally.
e. Gaddy found himself in a crocodile-infested area.
A. a d e c b B. d a e b c C. a d e b c D. d e a b c
4.The article can be classified as _________.
A. a news story B. a scientific fiction
C. a personal essay D. a literary report
