【解析】考查學(xué)生的文章理解能力以及綜合語法運用能力。

【1】考查定語從句的關(guān)系詞。句意：一位研究者做了一個報道，說有很多錢會讓你變成壞人。這里report后接定語從句對其修飾限定，用關(guān)系代詞that /which指代report。

【2】句意：Paul Piff教授花十年時間觀察富有的人的人格。spend +時間+（in）doing something花時間做某事，故填looking。

【3】句意：Paul Piff教授花十年時間觀察富有的人的人格，發(fā)現(xiàn)他們的行為不同于窮人的行為。并列連詞and后接的成分和spent一致，用一般過去時，故填found。

【4】固定搭配be different from“不同于”，故填from。

【5】句意：富人更可能破壞規(guī)章制度，不遵守法律，以及不關(guān)心他人。這里rule是可數(shù)名詞，用復(fù)數(shù)形式，故填rules。

【6】考查形容詞。句意：富有讓你更擔(dān)心自己的利益，自己的要求以及自己的福利。worried“擔(dān)心的”。

【7】句意：他補充說富人認(rèn)為他們自己的目標(biāo)和需要是他們生活中最重要的事情。這里用形容詞的最高級形式the most important。故填important。

【8】考查不定式表示目的。句意：窮人比富人給出更大比例的錢來幫助他人。這里表示目的，故用不定式to help。

【9】句意：你越富有越吝嗇。這里用比較級表示“越來越”，故填wealthier。

【10】考查連詞。句意：但是，他說富有的人可以改變他們的行為，他們可以變得更善良更慷慨。nicer和 more generous之間是并列關(guān)系，故用連詞and。
