第二段具體介紹大學(xué)生如何幫助老人；

第三段簡單介紹要照顧老人的原因。

11.theexcellenceinathleticstheexcellenceinathletics解析：此處要求填入名詞性短語作介詞besides的賓語。本題考查古代奧運會的成果。根據(jù)第五個小標(biāo)題下首段第二句中also及其中提到的architecture,mathematics,sculptureandpoetry可斷定前一句中有題干besides要求的搭配短語。根據(jù)原文意思可知，theexcellenceinathletics既符合besides的搭配條件，又與題干中相應(yīng)的achievements,mathematics等名詞并列，即為本題答案。

12.B解析：該句第2個分句中的body暗示ChloeHoson被murdered(該句開頭提到的)，因此本題應(yīng)選B。本段提引的是kidnap和murder，其他選項提到的各種罪案在原文并未提及。

13.overstatedoverstated解析：空前的people'sbeliefsare表明，本空應(yīng)填一過去分詞(短語)或形容詞(短語)。題干中的Thevolunteersweresurprised與首句提到的theirsurprise對應(yīng)，ineverydaydecision-making是原文信息的重現(xiàn)，people'sbeliefs是對whatweknow的同義轉(zhuǎn)述，故whatweknow前的謂語動詞overstate即為本題答案的出處。因為題干將文中know的賓語提至主語位置，故將overstate改為過去分詞形式overstated。

14.socialconnectionssocialconnections解析：空白處需要名詞性成分。根據(jù)原文，人際理論強調(diào)社會交流對精神健康的重要性而題目把原文反過來說，因此without后需填入的是原文強調(diào)的部分，故答案為socialconnections。

15.B解析：參見文章第2句：Adialectisavarietyofalanguagespokenbyanidentifiablesubgroupofpeople．句中的subgroupof并不是averysmallnumberof的含義，故答案為N。

16.theGrandPremiotheGrandPremio解析：參見本文最后一句：The42-footpaperboardGeodesicwasinstalled...andcameawaywiththehighestaward，theGrandPremio．
