Answer

1.答案D。beg for sth． 是一个固定的词组，意思是乞讨东西。

2.答案A。根据句意，这里的意思是：你是否冲冲走过，不知道怎么办。

3.答案B。put away 的意思是放好；hand over的意思是递过去；take in 的意思是吸收或者欺骗；get out 的意思是滚出去。根据文章的意思，所以C是正确答案，意思是你感觉很难过并急忙递过去一些钱。

4.答案D。attitude 和 towards 是固定搭配。

5.答案A。这里考查的是情态动词表猜测的用法。本句是肯定句，所以can不合适。而根据句意，当你不知道你的下顿饭在何方的时候，那生活肯定是非常悲惨的，所以要选择确定的must，而不是might,因为might 一般都不是很确定。

6.答案C。根据上下文句意。

7.答案C。这里是表示肯定的意思，因为世界上伟大的宗教肯定是要信徒向善的，多做好事。

8.答案C。share… with…是固定搭配。

9.答案B。这里考查的是定语从句中关系副词的用法。

10.答案A。arguments 的意思是论点；quarrels的意思是争吵，吵架；sayings的意思是名言；talks的意思是闲谈。根据句子意思，A选项是正确答案。

11.答案B。考查词组意思。容易误选的是A。但on show 的意思是在展出中；on purpose 的意思是故意; for fun是娱乐； by accident碰巧。

12.答案C。make a living 是固定搭配，意思是谋生，养活自己，符合句意。

13.答案A。根据上文的first。

14.答案C。考查同位语从句。

15.答案B。根据句意。一个人可以贫困，但是不能失去自尊和自立。

16.答案A。考查词组意思。rather than 的意思是而不是；or rather的意思是确指，表示进一步明确；other than的意思是除---以外；but also一般和not only连用，意思是不但---而且---。这里需要的是rather than，表示问题应该有政府解决而不是个人。

17.答案B。句子的意思是乞丐应该找政府部门寻求帮助，指客观上得到帮助。

18.答案A。case 在这里表示的意思是情况，而condition表示情况是不可数名词，可数情况下意思是条件。

19.答案C。go with意思是与---相配 ；而communicate with 意思是与某人交流；deal with的意思是处理，符合句子意思。meet with的意思是偶尔碰到。

20. 答案A。根据句意，其实钱浪费了，可是给予者的善良是不会被带走的。
