点评：本文讲述了Jane患上了考试焦虑症的情况介绍。本文要求考生具有扎实的英语词组、短语、习惯用法等英语搭配的知识，这对于理解文章的逻辑关系特别有利。文章的逻辑关系不外乎列举、原因、结果、让步、对照、补充、目的、条件等关系。解题时应联系上下文寻找相关线索，如某一个词的原词、指代词、同义词、近义词、上义词、下义词和概括词等。但由于我们在做题时不可能总是重复地阅读文章，因此，在做完形填空时要培养一种捕捉并记忆相关信息的能力。 |

"A child is dying---out of breath!" I had just begun my working day in the city, when these words came through the radio of the police car I was driving. I turned on the red lights and siren(警笛)and drove off as fast as I could. "Just my luck!" I thought.

I got to the house. A mother, filled with fear, handed me her baby, his face already blue. Was I too late? Dear me!
I did what had been taught to do in such a serious condition. A small thing flew out of the baby"s mouth on to the floor. It was a button. Thank heaven! The holes in it let a little air through.

One winter term during college, I took a history class to fulfill a requirement.
The professor was a 1 fellow with red hair. He would walk shyly into the room wearing his hooded (带帽的) winter coat, once not even 2 the hood during the lecture. He was terribly nervous in class and lowered his head 3 looking up through his glasses at his students.
So I 4 a little game for myself. I would try to find something in his lecture to ask him an intelligent question about, 5 me to pay attention rather than letting my eyes close. He was obviously 6 to have a question to answer. In fact, his answers were always interesting.
I continued to do this every day of the course and found myself actually enjoying the subject. The professor seemed to become a bit more 7 and some of the other students even 8 from time to time. My little game had saved me from being bored, as it was 9 to do. And, I learned quite a bit about ancient world history. Except for all of his strange __10 , he was indeed quite an expert in his field.
On the last day of his class, we gathered our 11 and headed out the door. The shy, red-haired professor 12 directly in front of me, with obvious efforts, as I reached the door, and put out his hand. He said, “I want to thank you for making this class so interesting.” As he shook my hand and 13 for the first time, I was so surprised. To me, it had been a pleasant way to 14 the time. I had no idea that all of my question asking had any 15 on him or the others at all.
Each of us, through the things we say and do, can have a great effect not just on our own experiences, but those of others.

“Last week,” Dr. P said “I was invited to a doctors’ meeting at the R. Hospital. In one of the rooms a patient, an old man, got up from his bed and moved slowly towards me. I could see that he hadn’t long to live, but he came up to me and placed his right foot close to mine on the floor.”
“Frank!” I cried with surprise. He couldn’t answer as I knew, but he tried to smile, all the time keeping his foot close to mine.
My thoughts raced back more than thirty years—to the dark days of 1941, when I was a student in London. The scene was an air-raid shelter (防空洞), in which I and about a hundred other people slept every night. Among them were Mrs. West and her son Frank, who lived nearby. Sharing wartime problems, we got to know each other very well. Frank interested me because he was not normal (正常的). He had never been normal, ever since he was born. His mother told me he was 37 then, but he had less of a mind than a baby has. Mrs. West, then about 75, was a strong, able woman, as she had to be of course, because Frank depended on her completely. He needed all the attention of a baby.
One night a policeman came into our shelter and told Mrs. West that her house had been all destroyed. That wasn’t quite true, because the West went on living there for quite some time. But they certainly lost nearly everything they owned.
When that kind of thing happened, the rest of us helped the unlucky ones. So before we separated (分别) that morning, I stood beside Frank and measured my right foot against his.
They were about the same size. That night, then, I took a spare pair of shoes to the shelter for Frank. As soon as he saw me, he came running—and placed his right foot against mine. After that, he always greeted (问候) me in the same way.
小题1:How did Dr P know that the patient was Frank?| A．He was told that Frank was in the hospital. | | B．He was invited to study Frank’s illness. | | C．Frank greeted him in a special way. | | D．Frank’s name was written on the door. |
小题2:When and where did Dr. P first meet Frank?| A．At the R Hospital about ten days before. | | B．In an air-raid shelter during the war. | | C．In Mrs. West’s house in 1941. | | D．In London after the West’s’ house was destroyed. |
小题3:The unlucky ones mentioned by the doctor were __________.| A．those who suffered from illness. | | B．those who were killed during the war | | C．those who slept in the air-raid shelter. | | D．those whose homes were destroyed in air-raids |
小题4:Dr. P placed his foot against Fran’s before he left the shelter.| A．to find out if Frank could put on his shoes | | B．to be friendly towards Frank | | C．to see if Frank’s feet were normal | | D．to teach Frank to greet people in a special way |
小题5:Why did Dr P say that Mrs West had to be a strong, able woman?| A．She was over 75. | | B．She needed all the attention of a baby. | | C．She had to give care and thought to her son as to a baby. | | D．She lost nearly everything in the war. |
