annoying? many of us have to spend some time every day on public transportation (47) so, to make the trip more pleasant, we suggest the following:
let passengers get off the bus or subway car before you can get on (48)

don’t talk loudly on a bus or subway. chatting loudly with your friends can be annoying to others. (49)
don’t think your bags and suitcases (手提箱) deserve a seat of their own.
use a tissue whenever you cough or sneeze (打喷嚏). an uncovered sneeze can spread germs (细菌), especially in crowded places.
don’t cut your nails or pick your nose on public transportation.
don’t read over other people’s shoulder (50) it can make people uncomfortable. they might think you’re too stingy (小气的) even to buy a newspaper. or they might think you’re judging their behavior
a don’t eat food in your car.
b don’t shout into your mobile phone on a bus or subway.
c we all know that some behaviors are simply unacceptable.
d many people do this on subways, but it’s really annoying
e getting off and on in an orderly manner can save time for all.

答案: 空格前面句子中出现的人称代词是you, 因此首先排除c (we: 上下文中出现的人称代词(we, you)应该是一致的), 并关注f: reading与空格前句中的 book呼应, 因此f是答案.
a don’t eat food in your car.
b don’t shout into your mobile phone on a bus or subway.
c we all know that some behaviors are simply unacceptable.
d many people do this on subways, but it’s really annoying
e getting off and on in an orderly manner can save time for all.

答案: c. (c中的 we与空格前面的 us呼应), c放入空格中与空格后面句意自然承接.
a don’t eat food in your car.
b don’t shout into your mobile phone on a bus or subway.
d many people do this on subways, but it’s really annoying
e getting off and on in an orderly manner can save time for all.
let passengers get off the bus or subway car before you can get on (48)
答案: e. 空格前句中的get off the bus or subway car与e中的 getting off and on呼应.
stand away from the doors when they are closing.
a don’t eat food in your car.
b don’t shout into your mobile phone on a bus or subway.
d many people do this on subways, but it’s really annoying(d应该是后面空格的答案)
don’t talk loudly on a bus or subway. chatting loudly with your friends can be annoying (干扰词)to others. (49)

don’t think your bags and suitcases (手提箱) deserve a seat of their own.
use a tissue whenever you cough or sneeze (打喷嚏). an uncovered sneeze can spread germs (细菌), especially in crowded places.
don’t cut your nails or pick your nose on public transportation.

d many people do this on subways, but it’s really annoying
don’t read over other people’s shoulder (50) it can make people uncomfortable. they might think you’re too stingy (小气的) even to buy a newspaper. or they might think you’re judging their behavior
答案: d. 空格后面出现表示单数的代词it(它会让人感到不舒服), 可见空格前面的内容应该是讲述同一件事情, 因此d是答案(其他的选项放入空格中都构成了两件事情).

it was a unique, eye-catching sight: an attractive woman in a shiny bullfighter’s suit, sword in hand, facing the sharp horns of a black, 500-kilogram beast.

vega became a matador (斗牛士) in 1997 in the southwestern city of caceres. (49) she entered a bullfighting school in malaga at age nine and performed her first major bullfight at age 14. she has faced as much opposition as sanchez did. and the "difficulties have made her grow into a very strong bullfighter," her brother jorge says.
the 1.68-metre tall and somewhat shy vega says her love of bullfighting does not make her any less of a woman. (50)
a her father was an aspiring (有雄心壮志的) bullfighter.
b but many bullfighting professionals continue to insist that women do not have what it takes to perform the country’s "national show".
c "i’m a woman from head to toe and proud of it," she once said
d she looks like a male bullfighter
e but recently, 29-year-old marl paz vega became the second woman in spanish history to fight against those heavy animals
f she intends to become even better than sanchez was.
