While the heart-re ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lated benefits seen in the study seem clear, researchers said, lung damage is not so 14 changeable. Those who smoked less than 32 pack years and quit up to 15 or more
years ago were still at a high risk of dying from 15 cancer.

It was time for 20 minutes’ eggs on the grill.
Oh, the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) white metal cabinet. No. We never 17 it. We weren’t “that bad off” as I understand it. And, for years I 18 how bad off we would have to be to eat out of that cabinet.

Anyway, I never looked inside.

What are the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )basic elements(要素) of good manners Certainly a strong sense of justice is one; courtesy(谦恭) is often 36 more than a highly developed sense of fair play. A friend of mine once told me about a time he was 37 along a narrow, unpaved(未铺柏油的) mountain road. 38 was another car that produced clouds of 39 , and it was a long way to the nearest 40 highway. Suddenly, at a 41 place, the car ahead pulled off the road. 42 that its owner might have engine trouble, my friend stopped and asked if anything was wrong. “ 43 ,”said the other driver, “but you’ve endured(忍受) my dust this far; I’ll 44 with yours the rest of the way.”
Another element ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) of courtesy is empathy(善解人意), a 45 that enables a person to see into the mind or heart of someone else, to understand the pain or 46 there and to do something to minimize it. A man 47 alone in a restaurant was trying to open the cap of a beer bottle, 48 he couldn’t do it because of badly injured 49 . He asked a young busboy to help him. The boy took the bottle, turned his back 50 and loosened the cap without difficulty. Then he 51 it again. Turning back to the man, he 52 to make great efforts to open the bottle without success. 53 he took it into the kitchen and returned shortly, saying that he had managed to loosen it ----but only with a pair of pliers(钳子).
Yet another ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )element of politeness is the ability to treat all people 54 , in spite of all status or importance. 55 when you have doubts about some people, act as if they are worthy of your best manners. You may also be astonished to find out what they really are.

语篇解读 本文是一篇夹叙夹议的 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )文章,主要讲述了作者在和家人驱车旅游途中遇到了一位“看门人”,作者为“看门人”买了一份午餐的故事。这个故事告诉我们要学会向他人表达我们的感谢并关爱他人。
1.解析: 考查形容词辨析。句意为:当我们走 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )到一家餐馆的门口时,一个胡子杂乱,头发脏兮兮的男人从餐馆外的一个凳子上跳了下来,为我们开了门。与“and dirty hair”相呼应,此处应填messy,意为“乱糟糟的”,故选B。
答案: B
2.解析: 考查名词辨析。句意为:尽管外表邋 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )遢,但他跟我们友好地打招呼。该句与上文描述的邋遢形象相呼应,故选项B符合文意。service服务;state状态;attitude态度,均不符合语境,故排除。
答案: B
3.解析: 考查动词辨析。 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )句意为:一走进饭馆里,我的女儿们就小声说:“妈妈,那个人臭烘烘的。”根据上文描述的那个人的邋遏可推测,那个人身上气味难闻,故D符合语境。
答案: D
4.解析: 考查介词辨析。句意为:在我们点过 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )午餐后,我解释说不要只看到别人身上的污垢。由下文作者为这个男人点午餐又和他握手,可知,作者并不嫌弃他脏,这里作者是告诉孩子看人不要只看到一个人外表的脏。故答案A符合文意。look over检查;look around环顾;look into调查,朝里面看,均不符合语境,故排除。
答案: A
5.解析: 考查动词辨析。句意为: ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )接着我们看到其他人来到这个餐馆,但是许多人都对这个“看门人”视而不见(ignore)。根据下文“Seeing this rudeness truly upset me.”可推知,许多人对他视而不见,这是不礼貌的。故B项符合文意。hate憎恨;miss想念,错过;refuse拒绝,均不符合语境,故排除。
答案: B
6.解析: 考查名词辨析。句意为:从我 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )第一天成为母亲开始,我就下决心给孩子们树立好榜样。根据下文中的“being a good example”可知,答案D符合文意。
答案: D
