錄, 但下文說到她闖了紅燈, 因此說那天她差點丟了這個紀錄。lose丟掉, 符合句意。keep a record保持紀錄。
【小題4】選C。背景常識題。警車跟在她后面, 用followed, 而watched不妥, 因為主語是警車, 而不是人。chase追趕, 根據(jù)上下文可知動作發(fā)生在警察發(fā)現(xiàn)她闖紅燈之前, 警車在此之前沒有理由追趕她或阻攔(stop)她。
【小題5】選A。邏輯推理題。根據(jù)下文的without stopping可知她pass a red light(闖紅燈), 如用go, 則要用go by。
【小題6】選C。習語搭配題。此處缺少表語形容詞, 因為主語為it, 相當于it is certain that句式, 故用certain, 不用sure, able, 因為sure, able常以人作主語; like一般不用于這一句式。
【小題7】選B。詞匯復現(xiàn)題。根據(jù)下文第三段的內(nèi)容可知對她的行為及年齡做出評論的是the judge, 故選B項。
【小題8】選C。習語搭配題。根據(jù)句意“她年紀太大了不能再開車了”可知這里是too. . . to. . . 結(jié)構(gòu), 表示“太……而不能……”。
【小題9】選B。詞語辨析題。reason是說明某事或某現(xiàn)象的理由, 而cause則指火災、水災或事故的起因。此處在考查固定句式: the reason why. . . is that. . . ……的原因是……。
【小題10】選A。詞匯復現(xiàn)題。根據(jù)上文可知她沒有在紅燈時停下來�！凹t燈”用red light。
【小題11】選A。邏輯推理題。根據(jù)句意“由于年齡老了, 她的視力不行了。”可知選表示原因的介詞, 解釋引起前面形容詞weak的原因要用介詞with, 此處相當于because of。
【小題12】選B。邏輯推理題。在賓語從句中what很顯然作的是動詞的賓語, 可排除speak, 因為講某種語言時它才是及物動詞; 強調(diào)說話的內(nèi)容用say。
【小題13】選C。詞語辨析題。根據(jù)句意可知她拿出了隨身攜帶的手提包。表示隨身攜帶, 不強調(diào)方向性, 用carry, 而bring則表示由遠往近帶來。
【小題14】選D。詞語辨析題。此處是挑了一根小眼的針, 用took, brought和picked都要加up或out。
【小題15】選C。邏輯推理題。從下文內(nèi)容來看, 老太太顯然是成功了。修飾動詞用副詞。
【小題16】選A。詞語辨析題。根據(jù)句意可知此處指針和線兩者, 所以用both。
【小題17】選B。習語搭配題。it’s your turn表示輪到你了。很顯然老太太想讓警察穿針來證明她眼神很好。
【小題18】選D。詞匯復現(xiàn)題。根據(jù)后面說他要thread it, 可知他要把線穿過針眼。剛談過針線之事。
【小題19】選A。邏輯推理題。根據(jù)警察和老太太穿針的對比, 證明了警察的結(jié)論是錯誤的, 所以警察的指控是錯誤的, 故老太太的案子被取消了。be dismissed被取消了。
【小題20】選D。邏輯推理題。根據(jù)文章內(nèi)容可知老太太的35年未違規(guī)的紀錄仍然沒被打破。remained“依然是”, 表示過去是這樣, 現(xiàn)在仍然保持這一狀態(tài)。seemed語氣不夠肯定; kept此處應用was kept。

Children start out as scientists, eager to look into the world around them. them enjoy science can be ; there's no need for scientific terms or expensive lab equipment. You only have to share your children's interests.
Firstly, listen to their questions. I once a classroom of seven-year-olds to talk about science as a job. The children asked me "textbook questions" about schooling, salary and my job. When I answering, I said, " we're finished with your lists, do you have questions of your own about science ?" After a long , a boy his hand, "Have you ever seen a grasshopper（蚱蜢） ？When I try eating leaves like that, I get a stomachache. Why ?" This began a set of questions that nearly two hours.
Secondly, give them time to think. After asking a question, teachers often wait only one or less for an answer, no time for a child to think. When teachers their "wait time" to three seconds or more, children usually give better answers.
Thirdly, watch your language. When children are having a science discussion, don't jump in with "That's right" or "Very good" because these may make the children think that discussion is over. , keep things going by saying, "I'd never thought of it that way before", or coming up with more questions or ideas.
Never a child to "think". It doesn't make sense, because children are always thinking without your telling them to. What's more, this can turn a conversation a performance.
, show in stead of telling. Let children look at their fingers through a magnifying glass（放大鏡）, they'll understand why you want them to before dinner. Rather than say that water evaporates（蒸發(fā)）, set a pot of water to boil and let them watch the water level .

People on a college campus were more likely to give money to the March of Dimes if they were asked for a donation by a disabled woman in a wheelchair than if asked by a nondisabled woman. In another , subway riders in New York saw a man carrying a stick stumble（絆腳） and fall to the floor. Sometimes the victim had a large red birthmark on his ; sometimes he did not. In this situation, the victim was more likely to aid if his face was spotless than if he had an unattractive birthmark. In these and other research findings, two themes are : we are more willing to help people we like for some reason and people we think assistance.
In some situations, those who are physically attractive are more likely to receive aid. , in a field study researchers placed a completed application to graduate school in a telephone box at the airport. The application was ready to be , but had apparently been "lost". The photo attached to the application was sometimes that of a very person and sometimes that of a less attractive person. The measure of helping was whether the individual who found the envelope actually mailed it or not. Results showed that people were more likely to the application if the person in the photo was physically attractive.
The degree of between the potential helper and the person in need is also important. For example, people are more likely to help a stranger who is from the same country rather than a foreigner. In one study, shoppers on a busy street in Scotland were more likely to help a person wearing a(n) T-shirt than a person wearing a T-shirt printed with offensive words.
Whether a person receives help depends in part on the "worth" of the case. For example, shoppers in a supermarket were more likely to give someone. to buy milk rather than to buy cookies, probably because milk is thought more essential for than cookies. Passengers on a New York subway were more likely to help a man who fell to the ground if he appeared to be rather than drunk.
