as simple as you think.Tipping，psychologists have found，is not just about service.Instead，studies have shown that tipping can be affected by psychological reactions to a series of different factors from the waiters choice of words，to how they carry themselves while taking orders，to the bills total.Even how much waiters remind customers of themselves can determine how much change they pocket by the end of the night.“Studies before have shown that mimicry (模仿) brings into positive feelings for the mimicker，”wrote Rick van Baaren，a social psychology professor.“These studies show that people who are being mimicked become more generous toward the person who mimicks them.”So Rick van Baaren divided 59 waiters into two groups.He requested that half serve with a phrase such as，“Coming up！”Those in the other half were instructed to repeat the orders and preferences back to the customers.Rick van Baaren then compared their takehome pay.The results were clearit pays to mimic your customer.The copycat (模仿者) waiters earned almost double the amount of tips to the other group.Leonard Green and Joel Myerson，psychologists at Washington University in St.Louis，found the generosity of a tipper may be limited by his bill.After research on the 1,000 tips left for waiters，cabdrivers，hair stylists，they found tip percentages in these three areas dropped as customers bills went up.In fact，tip percentages appear to plateau (稳定期) when bills topped $100 and a bill for $200 made the worker gain no bigger percentage tip than a bill for $100.“Thats also a point of tipping，” Green says.“You have to give a little extra to the cabdriver for being there to pick you up and something to the waiter for being there to serve you.If they werent there，youd never get any service.So part of the idea of a tip is for just being there.”1Apart from service，how many other factors affecting the customerstipping are mentioned in the passage?A1.B2.C3.D4.2These studies show that_.Atipping can be affected by physical reactions to many different waitersBpeople who are being mimicked usually tip less to the person who mimics themCthe mimic waiters can get almost twice as much money as those who dont mimick othersDmimicry makes the mimicker feel bad3According to the passage，which of the following will be likely to show the right change of the tip percentages?4We know from the passage that the writer seems to_.Aobject to Mr Greens idea about tippingBthink part of Mr Greens explanation is reasonableCgive his generous tip to waiters very oftenDsupport the opinions of Mr Green and Rick van Baaren about tipping.单项填空1C句意为：到他认识到已经中计的时候，再做任何事情也就不济于事了。根据句意，可知本句讲的是现在的事情，故用现在时，排除B、D两项，本句强调“已经中计”，用完成体，故答案为C。2Da failure一个失败者；end in failure以失败告终。3A随着年龄的增长，你会获得更多经验。4Abe/get caught in是固定搭配，指“突然碰上；突然遭受”，多用于被动结构。5C整个地区被大雪封闭了。cut off使 (人、城镇、地区)封闭孤立。6DA、B项为及物动词，不符合题意，manage不符合题意；react回应。7C根据前面的looked here and there判断，我们的老师“好像”在找东西，所以用as if。8C考查时态和语态。根据这两个学生现在正站在老师办公室门口，可知现在正在受罚，从而推断在课上小声说话发生在过去。9B考查形容词辨析。particular挑剔的。be particularabout对挑剔的。special特殊的，特别的，专用的；unusual不同寻常的，独特的；especial特别的，特殊的。10D考查倍数的表达和省略。根据句子所要表达的含义，but后补充完整为：but is three times as expensive as ours/our apartment。11B考查would rather的用法。would rather意为“宁愿，宁可”，后接动词原形，故选B。12B考查短语辨析。cut off切断。句意为：由于修路，电流被切断了，整座大楼一片漆黑。cut up切碎；cut out切去，省略，停止；cut down砍倒，削减，删节。13Alead/live a simple/easy/hard life过生活，当life有定语修饰时，前面要用a限定；make a/ones fortunemake money发财致富。14B考查介词的用法及非谓语动词的用法。介词by表程度，reaching短语在句中作结果状语。不定式也可作结果状语，但常与only或just连用，表示一种意想不到的结果。15Bonly to do sth.表示意想不到的结果。.完形填空【语篇解读】这是一篇记叙文。圣诞节前夕，Carl Fenter到处寻找玉米粉蒸肉，终于在一家店找到了玉米粉蒸肉。等待的时候，他在寒风中脱下自己的外套给一个同样在等待的母亲穿上，而这一善举使他得到了回报：这位女士后来专程给他家送去了他要买而没买到的玉米粉蒸肉。1B从语境的连贯判断选B，Carl Fenter说，家里是温暖的，可是在这里，早晨的寒风冷得很不正常。2A在这寒冷的日子，晚上在教堂做完圣诞节前夕的礼拜后回家和家人一起享受玉米粉蒸肉的盛宴，这样的点子或想法应该用brilliant来描述。a brilliant idea：绝妙的想法/主意。3A从语境的连贯看，本题用were：谁能想到，城里的玉米粉蒸肉在圣诞节前夕都卖完了呢？可是这些玉米粉蒸肉的确被卖完了。4B在几家店铺都没有买到玉米粉蒸肉，而他下定决心一定要买一份带回家，于是他开车跑遍了El Paso，并来到这最后一家卖玉米粉蒸肉的店铺。5D语境提到“45分钟之后，从锅上下来”，可见此处表示这家店铺的玉米粉蒸肉再过45分钟就能出锅了，用(be)due表示“预期发生”。6C这里用take ones place表示“就位，就座”：于是，他在人群后面开始排队等候购买。7D从语境的连贯判断选D，remove“移开，脱下，去掉”：他注意到，在他前面的那位女士把自己的外套脱下来，给自己冻得发抖的孩子披上。8C没过多久，这位母亲自己也冻得瑟瑟发抖。这里用shake表示“发抖”，与前面的s
