10.250Drive-Thru(汽车穿梭)Customers Pay It Forward at McDonald's
In Florida,one McDonald's customer started a pay-it-forward chain that inspired other 249customers to be generous and do the same.ABC News reports that (25)the spirit of giving is in the air as 250drive-thru customers at a local McDonald's paid for the meals of the people next to them.A Lakeland customer,Torie Keene (26)was paying (pay) for her food on Wednesday morning when she decided to pay for the meal of the car next to her.
Keene then purposely told McDonald's cashier Marisabel Figueroa (27)to greet (greet) the other customer"Merry Christmas"and not"Happy Holidays."The next customer was moved when Figueroa said her food was already paid by the previous car.That's when she thought that she would love to do the same.
It kept going and going.Figueroa,(28)who worked from 9a.m.to 3p.m.on Wednesday,said that the chain reaction almost lasted for her entire shift."I just kept (29)giving(give) everyone the same message,and they were all so surprised and so happy,"she continued."One lady even paid for the meals of the next three cars (30)behind/after her."
While people were amazed by how generous they could get,Figueroa said she had the (31)most unforgettable (unforgettable) Christmas experience in her 12years of working for McDonald's."I feel very (32)blessed (bless) to have been a part of all that,"the cashier said.And Keene said that she was surprised by the number of people who continued her good deed when she was"only trying to brighten someone's day."

分析 美麦当劳250名消费者"接力买单"
在美国弗罗里达的一家麦当劳餐厅,一位顾客开启了一场"接力买单",引发另外249人也参与到这个慷慨的行动中来.据美国广播公司新闻频道报道,在当地一家麦当劳店,共有250位顾客在汽车穿梭窗口点餐时,为下一位顾客买了单,这种给予的精神迅速传播开来.在周三早上,一位名叫Torie Keene 的莱克兰顾客在结账时,决定把下一位顾客的钱也付了.Keene还特意嘱咐收银员Marisabel Figueroa,让她跟下一位顾客说"圣诞快乐",而不是"节日快乐". 当Figueroa 告诉下一位顾客前面的那辆车的主人已经帮她付钱后,她很受感动,当时她就想她也要这么做.
事情就这样继续传递了下去,Figueroa,她从周三上午9点工作到下午3点,告诉记者:"就这样大家一直在为下一位顾客买单.在第15辆车后,我开始在纸上记录参与者的人数."她说这一买单接力几乎在她整个的工作时间里都在持续着.她说:"我跟每个人说同样的话,他们都特别惊讶和开心.一位女士甚至为后面三位顾客都付了钱."大家都对这种慷慨的行为感到惊讶.Figueroa说,她在麦当劳工作了12年,"之前从没遇到过这种事儿.我觉得自己很幸运能经历这一切."这条新闻被报道后,Keene 说她对有这么多人将她的善举接力了下去感到非常的惊讶,她当时只是想让某个人当天能有个好心情.

解答 答案:
25.the   根据上文可知,此处用在名词短语"spirit of giving"之前,表示特指"这种给予的精神",故填the;
26.was paying   结合上下文可知,此处"Torie Keene(26)(pay) for her food on Wednesday morning when she decided to pay for the meal of the car next to her."表达的意思是:周三的早上,她在买食物付钱时,决定为挨着她的下一位顾客付钱.表示当时正在进行的动作,所以此处要用过去进行时;故填was paying; 
27.to greet  由于句中的动词told后面应跟to do的形式,即told sb.to do sth.(告诉某人做某事);故填to greet;  
28.who  结合上文可知,"(28)worked from 9a.m.to 3p.m.on Wednesday周三从早上9点工作到下午3点"描述的是收银员Marisabel Figueroa,故可以判定此处是非限定性定语从句,用来修饰 Figueroa,故填关系代词who;
29.giving   此处用在动词kept之后,应使用动名词形式,即:kept doing意为:不停地做,故填giving;
30.behind/after   由于上文讲的是在麦当劳店里为下一位顾客接力买单的事情,所以此处应是为她后面的三位顾客都付了钱;故填behind/after;    
31.most unforgettable  由于该空缺处用在了the与unforgettable之间,并且结合上文可知,此处表达的应是由于她从没经历过这种场面,所以应是最难忘的,因此要用最高级,故填most unforgettable;   
32.blessed  此处用于系动词feel之后,因此应使用动词bless的过去分词形式用作形容词来修饰人,I feel very blessed to have been a part of all that 意为:我感觉很幸运能经历这一切;故填blessed.

点评 做本题时,首先要通读全文,把握文章的大体意思;其次应逐句分析,根据上下文的语境,判断句子应使用的时态,或者是应选用的连词;最后还应根据单词的用法,使用它的适当形式来填空.因此本题考查的是综合能力的运用,这就要求在平时学习的过程中,要增加阅读量,牢固把握基础知识(包括各类词的用法,形容词副词的比较级和最高级,时态等).
