【小題2】 D
解析 在銀行辦理業(yè)務(wù)一般要排隊(duì)(in line)等候。
【小題3】 A
解析 文章開(kāi)頭談到每次看到Joe的時(shí)候他都在微笑著,下文也有提示“...why he seemed so ____ every day.”所以此處填always。

【小題10】 C
解析 根據(jù)上文“...I went to the grocery store.”可知,商店中的很多人應(yīng)是彼此不認(rèn)識(shí)的。
【小題11】 B
解析 當(dāng)“我”向不認(rèn)識(shí)的人微笑時(shí),有些人不但還以微笑,甚至和“我”打招呼。greet符合語(yǔ)境。

解析 根據(jù)上下文可知,作者舉了一個(gè)孩子的例子。又根據(jù)下文“He made a shy little attempt at a smile.”可知,他應(yīng)是正在為難母親。因此hard符合語(yǔ)境。
【小題13】 A
解析 根據(jù)下文“He made a shy little attempt at a smile.”可知,小孩應(yīng)是停止糾纏母親。
【小題14】 D

About 40 percent of students        said they couldn’t do without their cell phones. About 90% said they took their        with them everywhere. One third of students surveyed said they used cell phones to        themselves up.
The study also asked students 18 to 25 questions designed to        addictive behavior. The results found that one in six cell phone users have a lot in        with gambling addicts (賭癮). Some people said they sometimes lied about their cell phone use.        admitted stealing to pay for their cell phone habit.
Dr David Sheffield,        conducted the study, said he wasn’t surprised by the       . “Students use their phones       , and this has both positive        such as staying in touch with friends and family, and negative ones too, such as        costs and social costs,” he told Weekly Reader. “The most        finding was that a number of people reported they had        a relationship or job because they spent too much time on mobile phones .”
     part of the study, some students agreed to take a        from their cell phones. After three phone-free days, students reported feeling less        about their daily lives. That might be a        reason to hang up the phone!
