【难句分析】The Ringgold，Georgia native visits local churches and businesses to collect paper，which he brings to a recycling center for money.分析：这是一个主从复合句。

句中which引导非限制性定语从句。

译文：这个佐治亚州Ringgold市的本地人去当地的教堂和企业收集废纸，带到废品回收中心换钱。

【背景知识】佐治亚州(Georgia，简称GA)，美国东南部7个州之一。

北界田纳西州和北卡罗来纳州，南邻佛罗里达州，东北与南卡罗来纳州接壤，东南临大西洋，西毗亚拉巴马州，州府是亚特兰大。

1．C 考查细节理解。

根据第一段中的“Since 1985，Johnny Jennings,86，has been selling newspapers and magazines to a recycling center with his son”和第四段中的“Over the course of 32 years he has recycled”可知，Johnny Jennings开始回收废旧物品时应该是54岁。

2．A 考查词义猜测。

根据该词所在句及前一句“Once a year, he'll give the organization a check somewhere between$10,000 and$35,000.By 2016, that tallied up to $400,000”中的数据可知，tallied意为：计算总数。

所以A项正确。

3．D 考查推理判断。

根据第三段中的“Community members drop off other recyc lables at his house so he can sell them，along with books，food，clothes, and other items to give away”可知，Johnny Jennings所在社区的成员们支持他回收废旧物品资助慈善机构的工作。

4．B 考查推理判断。

文章讲述Johnny Jennings常年回收废旧物品资助慈善机构的故事。

所以是回收废旧物品资助慈善机构的故事让Johnny Jennings与众不同。

3．________(devote) to his research work, the professor cared little about other things.答案：Devoted 本句中含有be devoted to的结构，结合句子结构可知，应用过去分词短语作状语，描述一种状态，即“潜心于研究工作”，故填devoted。

4．Please pass the papers on to the students ________(seat) at the back of the classroom.答案：seated 分析句子结构可知，设空处作定语，修饰the students，因此用所给词的形容词形式表示“入座的，就座的”这种状态。

故填seated。

5．Sales director is a position ________communication ability is just as important as sales skills.答案：where 设空处所填词引导定语从句，指代表抽象地点的先行词position，关系词在从句中作状语，意为“在此职位上”，故填where。

7．He tried to run away but gave up when he found himself ________(surround)．答案：surrounded 本句中宾语himself和surround存在被动关系，应用过去分词作宾补，故填surrounded。
