阅读下面短文，根据所读内容，在文章后的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词，并将答案填写在答题卡的相应位置上。
注意：每个空格只填一个单词

Sue and Jim were neighbours for five years but they were never interested in each other. Then one day, Sue saw Jim’s music collection. She noticed a rare punk rock CD that she also owned. At that moment, she realized that they both had the same interest in music and they started talking. Sue said, “I thought we had nothing in common（相同）until I saw his CD by the New York Dolls.” They are now married and living with each other.
Some psychologists (心理学家) think that your taste in music is related to (有联系的) your personality. As part of a test at the University of Texas, Austin, USA, volunteers created a CD of their favourite songs. The volunteers then listened to each other’s CDs and made guesses about the CD creator’s personality—outgoing, adventurous, happy, and so on. These strangers correctly guessed much more about each others’ personalities through their CDs than through their clothes or taste in films. For example, Sue and Jim love punk music, which means they have outgoing personalities.
The psychologists who did the test found Snoop Dogg (hip-hop) fans are likely to be energetic and talkative. People who like U2 (rock/pop music) are generally independent and adventurous.
The psychologists also found that Louis Armstrong(jazz) fans tend to(倾向于) be serious and intelligent While fans of classical music are also likely to enjoy jazz music and tend to be shy.The psychologists were surprised to find that rap and heavy metal fans were also shier and quieter than many other music lovers.

小题3:根据These strangers correctly guessed much more about each others’ personalities through their CDs than through their clothes or taste in films. 描述，可知在猜测一个人的个性的测试中，一个人在着装或者电影方面的品味不如在CD方面的品味重要。故填less，较小的，更小的。
小题4:根据第三段found Snoop Dogg (hip-hop) fans are likely to be energetic and talkative.描述，可知填likely ，很可能的。
小题5:根据第三段People who like U2 (rock/pop music) are generally independent and adventurous.描述，可知填like喜欢。

小题8:根据右栏内容可知此处指的是举例内容，故填example，例子。
小题9:根据第一段Sue and Jim were neighbours for five years but they were never interested in each other.描述，可知上下文只转折关系，故填转折连词Though/Although，虽然，尽管。
小题10:根据第一段“I thought we had nothing in common（相同）until I saw his CD by the New York Dolls.”描述，可知他们有一些共同的东西。故填不定代词something，某物，某事。

Chuck Wall teaches management and human relations at Bakersfield College. He walked into class one day and told his students that their h   小题1:    was to perform one act of random(任意的) kindness. His students did not understand the assignment(任务), but the professor would not answer their questions. He e   小题2:   his students to find it out for themselves.
One week later, the students entered the classroom excited to s   小题3:  their stories. One student told of distributing blankets to the homeless, another had contacted a long, lost friend, and another student r  小题4:   that he had helped a dog to find its owner. Students were energized(激励) by the homework assignment and wanted other people to be kind too. W  小题5: the support of local businesses, the students made stickers to put on cars that invited people to do something k 小题6: for others. They sold the stickers and decided to donate the money to a center for the blind –not surprising as Professor Wall is blind.
Since then, s  小题7:  kindness activities have been organized in schools all over the world. Many schools organize a Random Acts of Kindness Week, a  小题8:  November 13, to celebrate World Kindness Day. Some schools use each day of Random Acts of Kindness Week to perform d 小题9: kind acts, such as making a new friend, helping someone, doing community service, or raising money for a charity. Students learn to c  小题10:  other people and think about how small actions can make the world a better place.
