　　Ⅳ. 任务型读写

　　阅读下面短文，根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。

　　注意：每个空格只填一个单词。

　　Real policemen hardly recognize any resemblance between their lives and what they see on TV.

　　The first difference is that a policeman’s real life revolved round criminal law. He has to know exactly what actions are crimes and what evidence can be used to prove them in court. He has to know nearly as much law as a professional lawyer can, and what

　　is more, he has to apply it on his feet, in the dark and rain, running down a street after someone he wants to talk to.

　　Little of his time is spent in chatting. He will spend most of his working life typing millions of words on thousands of forms about hundreds of sad, unimportant people who are guilty of stupid crimes.

　　Most television crime dramas are about finding the criminal: as soon as he’s arrested, the story is over. In real life, finding criminal is seldom much of a problem. Except in very serious cases like murders and terrorist attacks, little effort is spent on searching.

　　Having made an arrest, a detective really starts to work. He has to prove his case in court and to do that he often has to gather a lot of different evidence.

　　A third big difference between the drama detective and the real one is the unpleasant pressures: firstly, as members of a police force, they always have to behave absolutely in accordance with the law. Secondly, as expensive public servants, they have to get results. They can hardly ever do both. Most of the time some of them have to break the rules in small ways.

　　If the detective has to deceive the world, the world often deceives him. Hardly anyone he meets tells him the truth. And this

　　separation the detective feels between himself and the rest of the world is deepened by the simple-minded—as he sees it—of citizens, social workers, doctors, law-makers, and judges, who, instead of eliminating crime, punish the criminals less severely in the hope that this will make them reform. The result, detectives

　　feel, is that nine tenths of their work is re-catching people who should have stayed behind bars. This makes them rather cynical(愤世嫉俗的).

　　Police in (1) ______world Police on TV

　　Knowledge of (2)________ law He has to know as much as a professional lawyer can and applies it to their (3) _____work. There is no (4) _____for them to know about it.

　　Different (5) _____

　　time spent He (6)_____ most of his working life to collecting and providing evidence needed to prove his case in court. Time is spent finding criminals. Once the criminal is found, the story (7)________.

　　Different pressures (8)_______ and the public put much pressure on detectives and policemen. They got no pressure from the public.

　　Relationship with the society He feels (9)_______ from citizens, as they hold different (10) ______toward punishment of the criminals. No contact with the public.

　　14．【解析】选C。由句意可知，“我”的两千元早已经付了，因此回答表示“不懊悔。我愿意付两倍的钱”。regret 接动词-ing 形式时，表示“后悔已经做过的事情”；as much 修饰倍数时，应该把倍数放在前面。
