D1：
1. D。本文主要讲的是Loggins虽然无家可归，但是积极乐观，在大家的帮助和她自己的努力下，被哈佛大学录取的成功经历，所以答案为D。
2. A。由下文的“She went to live with a friend's mother.”以及“1.4 million students in the US are homeless”以及“What’s worse, in her sophomore year, her mother and stepfather left her”可推知这里的abandoned表示的就是“离开”的意思，故选A。
3. B。由倒数第四段可知B正确。文中提到了“She had to move from school to school, frequently adjusting to new surroundings and classmates.”但是并没有提及Loggins认为适应新环境很容易，故A不对；由第一段“DAWN Loggins returned from a prestigious academic camp last summer”可知C项的“since she was a young kid”不对；文中提到了频繁转换学校，但是没有提及转学具体原因，所以D项不对。
4. A。由第九段的“It's not the end for me – just another step.”以及最后两段可知Loggins对于未来的哈佛生活持积极乐观态度，故选A。
D3
1. C。由第二段“Research shows dogs respond to people’s tears. They are more likely to approach and “comfort” a crying person than someone who is humming or talking”可知答案为C。
2. D。由第四段“They showed their distress at seeing a person who was upset through body language”以及下面提到的小狗们的不同反应可推知D正确。由第三段“18 pet dogs from various breeds”可知A不对；由第三段“Mayer pretended to ignore the dog so that it wouldn’t have much interest in her.”可知B不对；由第五段可知C不对；
3. B。由上文小狗对哭泣和哼唱声的不同反应可以推知小狗能够辨别这两种声音的不同，所以differentiated在这里表示“辨别”之意，故选B。
4. D。由第五段的“Regardless of whether it was their owner or the stranger, when an individual cried, most of the dogs went up…”可知A不对；文中并没有提到小狗是否能够成功劝慰人类，故B不对；由最后一段“researchers are unlikely to ever find out whether dogs can really understand why someone is sad and needs comforting”可知C不对；由倒数第二段“The fact… indicates that their response to crying was not purely driven by curiosity”可知D正确。
D4:
1. B。George Sang抓住小提琴手的肩膀是因为他很吃惊很兴奋，没想到他还会回来。这是George的第一反应，而不是因为感激，A错误。
2. D。temporarily意为“暂时地”。
3. A。从“the violinist’s music had sounded so wonderful that he had put 50 dollars into his hat... only to drop the lottery ticket in with it.”可以推测出，George在掏出50美元的时候误把彩票也丢下了。
4. A。从“But honesty should always remain with us. If we behave in a dishonest way, we may succeed temporarily but we will lose out in the long run.”可判断文章的主旨是说诚实才是人生中真正的财富。
D5：
1. A。从上文的“I had dreamed of becoming a member of the Students Union”以及下文的“I dreamed of being a leader too”可知作者应该是钦佩学校领导，所以选A。
2. B。从下文可以看出，作者第一次参加学生会干部竞选时还没有足够的经验，当然就不会计划这次一定要成功或判定自己一定会赢，但是她可以祈祷自己能胜出。
3. C。从下文列出的作者的劣势可知作者这次竞选没有成功，所以只能选C，表示几乎没有人选她。
4. D。take在这里表示“需要钱、努力、某种品质等”。又如：It takes a lot of courage to admit that you were wrong.
5. B。从前文列举的作者竞选的劣势可知，当她意识到这些时，她应该是很伤心的，故选B。
6. C。作者在哭泣的时候突然深呼吸，决定不会就此放弃自己的梦想，所以选C。
7. B。从第二段第二句话“But the first time I stood”可知这里要用stand。Stand for election表示“竞选（某一职位）；当（某职务的）候选人”。
8. A。此空后面的“in their favor”与下文“in my favor”对立，所以这里应该指的是作者的竞争对手有他们的优势。
9. D。上文提到了对手的优势，这里应该是谈论作者也有自己的长处。point表示“特点，特质”，points that would work in my favor point与上文的a lot of things in their favor 对应。
10. B。strength表示“长处，优点”，对应上文的“points that would work in my favor point”。
11. D。由第二段“I wasn't pretty.”可知作者相貌平平，所以选D，plain表示“普通的”。

18. D。along the way表示“一路上，沿途”。
19. B。acceptance在这表示“认可，赞同”，符合语境。
