Answer 1

分析 作者在一次乘車時遇到一位好心的司機，他給作者講述了自己小時候因家庭貧困而輟學的經歷，鼓勵作者要好好學習，珍惜在校的時光．然而真正體現(xiàn)出司機美德的事情是當作者發(fā)現(xiàn)自己把手機落到出租車里時司機感人的表現(xiàn)．

解答 61．caught；考查動詞的語態(tài)，分析句子成分可知the taxis 與動詞應是被動關系，故用過去分詞caught與前面的are構成被動語態(tài)．
62．Unfortunately；考查副詞，結合上下文分析可知作者因貧困而輟學是件不幸的事情，故用副詞Unfortunately．
63．an；考查冠詞，at an early age是一個固定搭配，意為"年紀還小時，在早年"．
64．to work；考查動詞不定式，encourage sb to do sth 是固定搭配，意為"鼓勵某人做某事"．
65．was；考查主謂一致，句子的主語是從句what really impressed me next，又因動作發(fā)生在過去，故動詞用was．
66．left；考查動詞的時態(tài)，本文講述的是過去發(fā)生的事情，故此處用一般過去時left．
67．praying；考查分詞作狀語，句子的主語 I 與動詞pray存在邏輯上的主謂關系，故用現(xiàn)在分詞形式作伴隨狀語．
68．expecting；考查動詞的時態(tài)，從后句and that he would gladly return my phone可知司機愿意歸還作者的手機，所以他是一直在等著作者去聯(lián)系他，故用expecting與前面的 had been 構成過去完成進行時．
69．earlier；考查副詞的比較級，結合上下文分析此處意為"在那天早些時候我下車的地方"，故用比較級形式earlier表示"早些時候"．
70．qualities；考查名詞的單復數(shù)，quality表示"品質，品格"時多用復數(shù)形式，此處又有one of 限定范圍，故用復數(shù)qualities
