（二）

答案与解析：本文介绍了 1985 年法国一电视公司和 1991 年英国一心理学教授所做的两次实验。先介绍了 1985 年法国一电视公司邀请一些演员模拟在地铁上有人被攻击的场景，结果没有人提供帮助;1991 年在英国进行的实验中，一心理学教授让自己的学生去偷车，结果很少有人帮助，更有甚者还帮助学生偷东西或销赃。这真让人感到惊讶！

1. B。从上下文看，这里说的是一法国电视公司派记者到巴黎地铁拍摄当遇到有人受到攻击时乘客的反应场面。

2. C。从下文来看，这里说的是记者想了解一下当有人受到攻击时乘客的反应。这可从下文 The attack was on a train 及 …a foreigner was attacked by three men 得到暗示。

3. D。由后面的 but they were all done with the help of actors 及該电视公司这样做的目的来看，这里用 real 较好。

4. B。前面提到在演员的协助下上演了一幕有人被攻击的场景，由however 可推知，尽管有人被攻击，但很少有人试图出手帮助。

5. B。前面说很少有人出手帮助，与此语意一致，and 后面说的应是很多乘客假装没看见。

6. C。从前面 The incidents looked real but they were all done with the help of actors 可得到提示。

7. A。文章一开头就有 a France television company sent its reporters to the Paris Metro，因此这里谈论的事件就发生在满是乘客的火车上。

8. A. 前面说当攻击发生时车里满是乘客，当被攻击者请在场的其他乘客给予帮助时，竟没有人帮助。

9. B。前面例举的是法国一电视公司所做的一次实验，后面又说英国一教授也曾做过类似的实验。由此可判断，这不是只有法国才存在的问题。这在文章最后一句话也有暗示。

10. C。从下文可知，此处介绍的是一英国心理学教授所做的一次让学生在众目睽睽下抢劫自己车辆的实验。send out 意为“派出，派遣”，即教授派自己的学生去抢车。
