walking，就是陪人们散步、遛弯。他表示很喜欢这项工作，但同时也希望尽快回归演艺生涯。1B词义猜测题。根据文章第一段中的“A young Los Angeles actor in need of a second job to pay his bills”可知，这位演员需要第二份工作来支付他的账单，所以他想出了一个方法来增加他的收入。故选B。2C细节理解题。根据第四段第一句“Chucks services are aimed at people who need a motivational boost to go walking，those who dont feel safe walking alone in some areas，and those who are afraid that people might see them walking by themselves and think that they have no friends.”可知，people walk可以提供的帮助是使顾客精神振奋、陪伴他们、给予安全感，但没有提及给顾客买食物。故选C。3A推理判断题。根据第四段最后一句“However，he admits some people are a bit uncomfortable with this policy，as they dont necessarily want everyone to know that theyre being walked.”可知，人们认为如果他穿着The People Walker衬衫，会让别人知道他们找了people walker，这样使得他们不舒服，所以他们更喜欢他不穿The People Walker衬衫。故选A。语篇解读本文介绍了当你心情低落的时候可以访问的四个网址。它们发布搞笑、有趣的视频或文章来帮助大家缓解低落情绪。4B细节理解题。根据Collegehumor.com中的“Two of its videos have been chosen as winners for the Webby Awards：Pixar Intro Parody and Web Site Story.Other funny videos to look out for include a debate on the advantages and disadvantages of going to college.”可知，如果你想观看获得威比奖的视频，你可以访问Collegehumor.com。故选B。5B细节理解题。根据Funnyordie.com中的“This site has lots of really funny videos.And as the name suggests，users vote on videos，choosing the options funny or die”可知，该网站上的视频会有用户投票。故选B。6A推理判断题。根据Reddit.com中“Founded in 2005，Reddit.com is a social news and entertainment website.Registered users put funny content in the form of the video link or texts on the website.”和Theonion.com中“First appearing as a satirical newspaper in 1988，Theonion.com has hundred of videos and articles on news and current affairs，”可知，Reddit.com和Theonion.com的共同之处是它们都含有有趣的视频。故选A。7C细节理解题。根据第一段最后两句可知乌鸦可以存储和找出所用的工具。故选C。8B细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“In another experiment，the researchers taught crows to select a token(礼品券) from a number of items so that they could then exchange for food.”可知，科学家们训练乌鸦用礼品劵来交换食物。故选B。9A推理判断题。根据第三段第一句“These studies have shown that animals can plan for the futurebut they left an important question open for debate.”可知科学家们对动物可以为未来计划的研究是有争议的。故选A。10B推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“We need to investigate how flexible behaviour evolved.”可知，动物是怎样进化的还不清楚。故选B。.语篇解读人人都会抱怨。即使你说你是世界上最幸福的人，你有时也会抱怨。本文提供了一些如何停止抱怨、放弃消极想法的建议。11F根据空格前“but rarely is it ever helpful.(但是抱怨很少有用)”以及后面的“Here are some tips to stop complaining and give up the negative thoughts：”可知过渡句应该是如何设法使自己停止抱怨。故选F。12A根据下文的“When you find yourself thinking or saying a negative comment about something or someone，stop and force yourself to say something positive instead.”可知，当你有消极想法时，强迫自己说积极的话语。这是一种思维的改变，故A项与此处吻合。 13G小标题指出“Make a list of things we are grateful for.(列举出我们感激的事情)”，G项提到写下我们感激的事情，然后我们就会明白自己没理由抱怨了。承接上文，故选G项。14E根据空格前的“There are many things we cant change.(有很多事情我们不能改变)”可知，既然不能改变，就接受它。与E项(唯一也是最好的事情是去接受它们)吻合。15D根据空格后的“Maybe it is time to make the hard decision to move on to another job or career.(也许是时候作出艰难的决定换工作或职业了)”可知，在你总是抱怨工作时，要考虑换份工作。故选D。
