She recalled that frequently after class she had taken Douglas， a short lonely child by the　9　. She often did that with the children. But it meant so much to Douglas.

　　Last winter I led a Bible study in Shreveport， Louisiana.

　　We always invited non­church members to come and join

　　us in the discussion. I met Terri， a young nurse. She had

　　been struggling with all sorts of things， and it seemed

　　that she needed a bit of spiritual guidance， so I invited her.

　　But weeks passed， and she never came. “You should come，”

　　I told her.“ I'm not sure if it's the right place for me，” she said.

　　One day I headed to a supermarket to pick up a few

　　Christmas gifts. After fighting the holiday crowds and getting

　　my things， I got back into my car and pulled out of the

　　parking space. Something was in front of me. I got out to

　　take a closer look. It was a shopping bag from Dillard's

　　department store—filled with a number of pairs of expensive­looking socks. I called up the store when I got home. They

　　said no one had reported it. I gave them my number in case

　　someone called to look for the bag.No one did.

　　A week later I was leading the Bible study when Terri

　　walked in. She stayed very quietly and looked sad， just sitting

　　and listening as the rest of us discussed the passage I'd

　　read. At the end I asked if anyone had anything to share. “I'm sorry，” Terri said. “I'm not sure if I believe in the

　　fate (命运). Nothing's been going right for me. Work's

　　been tough； I've had problems in my family； I'm single

　　for the holidays ... and I can't even shop for presents

　　without something going wrong.”

　　“What happened？” I asked. “Last week I bought a gift for my dad， and I lost it —a whole bag of socks，” she said. “Socks from Dillard's？” I asked. She nodded. I smiled and said， “I think you 've come to the right place.”

　　语篇解读：Terri在生活上经历了许多困难。作者动员她参加《圣经》学习，但她说不知是否该来……

　　A.a non­church member who liked reading the Bible

　　B.a nurse who was in charge of spiritual guidance

　　C.a church member who was in charge of the Bible study

　　D.a person who cared nothing about others living around her

　　解析：推理判断题。从“I led a Bibel study”与“We always invited non­church members to come and join us in the discussion”.可推断作者是负责带大家学习《圣经》的教堂工作人员。

　　答案：C

　　2.Why did the author advise Terri to join them？

　　A.Because Terri was a single woman and suffered a lot.

　　B.Because the author thought Terri needed spiritual guidance.

　　C.Because Terri was a church member and had to join them.

　　D.Because the author wanted Terri to see how she led the Bible study.

　　解析：细节理解题。根据“it seemed that she needed a bit of spiritual guidance.”可知作者认为她需要精神指导，所以动员她参加《圣经》学习。

　　答案：B

　　3.At first Terri never came to the Bible study because .

　　A.she had a great deal of work to deal with

　　B.she doubted whether it would help her or not

　　C.her husband didn't allow her to do so

　　D.she met with family problems and was in low spirits

　　答案：B

　　4.We can infer from the passage that .

　　A.Terri often went shopping with the author

　　B.Terri would never go to the church

　　C.everything was going right for Terri

　　B.A sad woman—Terri

　　C.How to join a Bible study group

　　答案：D

　　B

　　Imagine that you live on a street where there are broken windows，graffiti painted on buildings，and waste on the ground.Would this environment lead to other acts of property damage or crime？

　　European researchers say the answer is yes.The researchers say they found strong evidence that signs of disorder can lead people to carry out criminal acts or bad behavior.The researchers work at the University of Groningen in the Netherlands.They reported their findings in Science

　　magazine last November.Their report is called The Spreading of Disorder.

　　The idea that observing disorder has an effect on people's behavior is not new.In 1982，American researchers James Wilson and George Kelling wrote a report describing what they called the broken windows theory.They believed that signs of crime，such as broken windows in a building，led to other acts of crime.

　　In the 1990s，New York City officials started a campaign to remove signs of disorder like broken windows，graffiti markings，and rubbish.Soon，the rate of minor crimes in New York began to drop.Other cities around the world also began to use this crime­fighting method.

　　But the broken windows theory was also questioned.Experts said there was still no experimental evidence to prove that the drop in crime was a direct result of efforts to clean up city neighborhoods.

　　They said other influences could also have caused the drop in crime.Moreover，the broken windows theory did not fully examine the exact conditions of disorders that appeared to lead to crime.

　　The study from the Netherlands now provides the experimental information to support the broken windows theory.

　　语篇解读：欧洲的研究员发现，杂乱、无秩序会导致犯罪或不当行为的增加，然而，有些研究员对此观点提出了质疑。

　　6.The underlined word “graffiti” in Paragraph 1 probably means .

　　A.rude drawings

　　B.formal displays

　　C.public signs

　　答案：A

　　7.Other cities followed New York's example because .

　　A.there was no crime in New York at that timeB.there were fewer crimes in New York after the campaign was started

　　C.the rate of minor crimes in New York fell to its lowest level ever

　　D.the environment in New York was relatively clean

　　解析：细节理解题。根据第四段“Soon，the rate of minor crimes in New York began to drop.”可知，答案为B。

　　答案：B

　　8.Which of the following statements can NOT be inferred from the passage？

　　A.European researchers agree that signs of disorder lead to crime.

　　B.The broken windows theory has drawn many experts' attention.

　　C.Some researchers had already reported similar findings many year before.

　　D.More and more cities will follow New York's example.

　　解析：推理判断题。文中只提到之前有一些城市效仿纽约的做法，但文中没有提及到以后的情况，因此不能推断出D项结论。

　　答案：D

　　9.What can we know about the experts questioning the broken windows theory？

　　A.They didn't agree to take rubbish away from cities.

　　B.They thought other influences contributed to the drop in crime.

　　C.They thought cleaning up city neighborhoods was useless.

　　A.some efforts should be made to punish those who commit a crime
