　　第Ⅱ卷(非选择题 共35分)

　　第一部分：任务型阅读(共10小题，每小题1分;满分10分)

　　请认真阅读下列短文，并根据短文的内容要点完成文章后的表格。注意：补全填空应符合语法和搭配要求，每空只填一个单词。请将答案写到答卷相应题号的横线上。

　　Beggars are often seen sitting by the side of a street with heads bowed as people pass them by. Some ask people passing by for a small amount of money and some just sit and wait to be given money. A few use rude behaviour to earn money.

　　To solve the problem of rude begging, an “alternative (供选择的) giving” plan has been suggested. Ten blue money boxes will be placed in busy places such as the market and the railway station. It aims to encourage people not to give money directly to beggars but instead to give it to the local charity for the homeless.

　　Supporters of this plan think it will be an effective way to solve the beggars’ alcohol and drug problems. But the police are against the plan arguing that beggars who do not receive cash may turn to criminality(犯罪) to feed their addictions. The homeless charity “Crisis” said the success of any plan will depend on its style. They think that imaginative and positive plans can help create local understanding and sympathy(同情) instead of hardness. Most of the beggars dislike the plan because they think they will not get enough money from the boxes for their showers, food and clothes.

　　Begging is a big social problem both in developing and developed countries. Governments must play a big role in solving this problem. Training beggars to work and helping them to find proper jobs is one choice. This is especially true for developing countries where many low-skilled jobs exist.

　　The general community should also be educated to see beggars not as dirty and dangerous, but as people who need understanding and help.
