Luke says, “At first I was shocked that somebody would do such a thing, but then I saw Jenifer’s and knew that I had to do something. I jumped up and started chasing him down the street and calling‘Thief, stop !’but nobody seemed in stopping him. They were too busy staring, like it was aor something. Luckily, I play soccer for the school team, so I’ve been training all year and I’m in pretty good shape, so I to catch up with him on Third Avenue and knocked him down. Once he was on theI sat on top of him and waited for the police to come. I know that people say you shouldn’t do that kind of thing, you never know what the person can do to you, but I didn’t think about that at the time. I was too”
However, Jennifer is not the only one who’s grateful for Luke’s bravery. After police had arrested(送签捕) the thief, they his apartment and found over a hundred stolen cell phones and, perhaps more, an address book full of names of various criminal contacts(犯罪联络)， most of whom have now been brought in for as police try to break a growing ring of cell phone criminals.
Cell phone theft(盗窃)is only one of a number of technology – related crimes that police say are on the rise. Businesspeople have been told to be extrawith their notebook computers, which are an easy target(目标) for criminals, and new police apartments are being set up to crimes. In the last week alone, the New York Police Department hasover six hundred calls from people relating to one of the above crimes.
Thanks to Luke’s bravery and quick thinking, Jennifer didn’tone of those victims (受害者) , and she knows she’s going to thank Luke - by taking him for another meal at the same Indian restaurant. This time, however, she’s going to keep her cell phone in her purse.

答案：
(答案→)D
解析：短文大意：本文讲述了Duke和好友Jennifer 在一家餐馆吃饭，Jennifer手机被偷，Duke毫不犹豫英勇擒贼，最终将贼抓获，送交警察，警察在搜小偷家时发现更重要的犯罪信息，从而提醒市民，尤其是商人要如何预防手机犯罪和相关科技犯罪的思考。
【小题1】考查名词及语境理解。句意：但那时我看见珍妮弗的脸，就知道我必须做些什么。purse钱包； phone电话； head脑袋；face脸。根据后文“and knew that I had to do something. I jumped up and started chasing him down the street and calling‘Thief, stop !’可知Duke是从Jenifer的面部表情判断有一个小偷拿了她的东西，然后开始追小偷。因此选择 D.
【小题2】考查形容词及语境理解。句意：但似乎没有人对阻止他感兴趣。pleased高兴的； frightened 害怕的； interested有趣的； excited兴奋的。根据but这一转折词和后文“They were too busy staring,” 可知大家对Duke追贼一事的态度是：没兴趣帮忙阻止小偷，而是围观，因此选择 C.
【小题3】考查名词及语境理解。句意：像是一部电影或什么。game游戏； movie 电影； story故事； joke笑话。根据前文“They were too busy staring,”大家都盯着Duke抓小偷，而不帮忙，就像在看……或者什么其他东西一样 like it was aor something”，这里只有电影最合适，这是抓贼的场景，不是游戏，故事和笑话，这个场景是动态的，像电影一样最符合逻辑，因此选择 B.
【小题4】考查动词及语境理解。managed 经营； tried努力，尝试； hoped希望； meant意思是。从前文“Luckily, I play soccer for the school team, so I’ve been training all year and I’m in pretty good shape,” 幸运的是，作者在校足球队受训整整一年，因此练就了一副好身材，由这些作铺垫，文章第三段讲了这起成功的抓贼事件给警察带来的益处，所以贼肯定是成功抓获了，因此选择 A.
【小题5】考查名词及语境理解。句意：有一次他在地上，我坐在他身上等待警察要来。floor地板； grass草； ground地面； bed床。根据常识判断，Duke肯定是将贼打到在地，故选 C.
【小题6】考查连词及语境理解。句意：我知道人们说你不应该做那种事情，因为你永远不知道什么人会对你做什么，但我当时没想。because因为；so所以； if 如果；although尽管。由句意“我知道人们会说你不应该做那样的事情，你绝对不会知道那个人会对你做什么，”这两句是因果关系。故选A.
【小题7】考查形容词及语境理解。句意：我太气愤。nervous紧张的； sad悲伤的；brave勇敢的；angry生气的。Duke看到好友被抢，可推断他的情绪应该是愤怒，故选D.
【小题8】考查动词及语境理解。句意：他们搜查了他的公寓，发现了一百多部被偷的手机。broke损坏； searched搜查；sold出售； discovered发现。警察逮捕了小偷后，根据常理判断，应该是搜查他的公寓。因此选择 B.
【小题9】考查形容词及语境理解。句意：也许更重要。important重要的；common普通的； similar相似的；dangerous危险的。根据后文: “an address book full of names of various criminal contacts(犯罪联络),后来找到了一本写有犯罪联络人的名字，比之前找到的超过100部手机，更有价值，所以更重要，故选A.
【小题10】考查动词及语境理解。句意：他们中的大部分都被带去问话，警察试图突破电话犯罪的增长。questioning问； testing测验；pretending假装；stealing偷。由前后文义可知这些犯罪联络人被带去警句问话，故选 A.
【小题11】考查形容词及语境理解。句意：已经告知商人要特别小心他们的笔记本电脑。serious严肃的； safe安全的； patient有耐心的； careful仔细的。由前文警察说关于手机盗窃和有关科技犯罪案件正在上升，所以商人对他们的笔记本应该格外小心才是，故选 D.
【小题12】考查动词短语及语境理解。句意：警局正在建立新的部门来处理这些犯罪行为。care for关注； deal with处理； think about考虑；.belong to属于。故选 B.
【小题13】考查动词及语境理解。句意：仅在上周，纽约警方已接到人们关于以上犯罪打来的六百多个电话。made制造；checked检查； received接受； refused拒绝。因此选择C.
【小题14】考查动词及语境理解。句意：珍妮佛不会成为一个受害者。trouble麻烦；offer提供； become变成； believe相信。根据前文多亏了Duke的英勇和敏捷的思考，Jennifer没有变成受害者，故选 C.
【小题15】考查疑问词及语境理解。句意：她知道她要怎样感谢卢克-通过带他到同一家印度餐厅再吃一顿饭。why为什么；. how 怎么；when何时； whether是否。由后文 “by taking him for another meal at the same”通过这种方式来感谢，因此答案 B.
