At 17, she is president and founder of her school’s UNICEF (United Nations Children’s Fund) USA club, and a member of UNICEF’s national council (委员会). She also volunteers her time in different communities.How did Anjali develop such a passion (热情) for helping others? When she was a freshman, she had an experience that greatly changed her attitude. She was invited to a cousin’s wedding (婚礼) in India.“My humanity forced me to go,” Anjali says. “When I saw children on the street, I realized how lucky I was as a child. I was able to get whatever I wanted, and my every need was satisfied.”Anjali asked herself: “What can I do to help? UNICEF stood out to me because it’s always on the front lines helping children in need.”After starting a UNICEF club at her school, Anjali noticed that the community responded (响应) actively. She took things a step further by applying to UNICEF’s national council.“UNICEF really liked my work.” she says. “Out of 3,000 applicants, they chose 6 high school students to be on the national council, and I was one of them.”As a member of the council, Anjali helps organize high school UNICEF clubs around the country and provide resources so that the clubs can manage themselves.The teen also founded an organization called “Activists United.” Members educate people on the dangers of guns. Anjali encourages other kids to start local clubs and organizations, too. “It takes a lot of effort, but you can get it done if you’re passionate,” she says.( )4. Why did Anjali go to India?A.

How will you educate him? What role will he play in the world?According to Darwin’s theory of evolution of the species, we are a competitive species and one survives by adapting itself biologically to various environments through various ways. Competition was a resource useful for the progress of society and for the survival of human beings.Today, however, the challenges are different. The 21st century is a computer science age, but there are environmental imbalances, deaths of thousands of children every day by starvation and countless epidemics (流行病). Therefore, it is important that the philosophy of preparing our children for competition and power be replaced by one of preparing them for love and cooperation (合作).The earth is a unique (独一无二的) home to us all. The ecological balance has to be pursued (追求) and this pursuit shows the internal balance of each living being. We must educate our children so that they want to protect nature and thus to protect the opportunity to make themselves more powerful and able in society. Our children have to learn that we don’t need to practice actions that benefit only our homeland while all other countries are destroyed. The destruction of other countries and lives leads to the impossibility of the future existence of the place we call home.It imbalances the ecosystem and shades the hope of a better future. We would not show hate to a flower, grabbing it and throwing it to the floor and stepping on it. It would be foolish! But we are insensitive to the sight of a homeless person thrown to the ground and pretend it's not our problem! Competition has led us to a state of total insensibility! Therefore, we must teach our children that the main necessity of men is love. Love is being good to ourselves, others and nature.( )8. According to Paragraph 2，competition is ________.A. interestingB. beneficialC. unnecessaryD. ineffective( )9. Why should we prepare children for cooperation in the 21st century?A. We are faced with new challenges.B. Many diseases are threatening people.C. They will live in a more competitive society.D. Environmental imbalance has caused many deaths.( )10. What is the benefit of keeping an ecological balance?A. It will help keep our internal balance.B. Our kids will have more chances to succeed.C. It will help make our future existence possible.D. Our kids will have a better natural environment.( )11. What is the purpose of this text?A. To suggest an education of love and cooperation.B. To explain the role competition plays in education.C. To introduce ways of helping children overcome fears.D. To explain why competition and cooperation should coexist.DNatasha, 19, is a sophomore (二年级学生) at Baylor University in Texas. She was born in Africa but came to the US when she was 3 years old.Natasha was on her way to science class one day this past November. A male student suddenly knocked her off the sidewalk.

Then the two guys walked away.Natasha had never experienced such racism at Baylor before. She wanted to let other people know what had happened.

And they were united in their anger about what had happened to her. They were there to make it clear that racism is never OK.The crowd cheered when Natasha appeared. She fought back tears. The students linked arms and walked across campus (校园) together.Outside her classroom, Natasha spoke to the crowd.“You have no idea how much this means to me,” she said. She praised the second male student—the one who had stood up for her. Then she spoke about the student who had shoved (推) her and said such hateful things. “To the gentleman who said those words,” Natasha said, “I’m praying for you, and I love you. We just want to see the world become a better place.”( )12. Why did the first male student knock Natasha off the sidewalk?A. Because of her color.B. Because of his carelessness.C.

Grateful.D. Confused.( )15. How does the text mainly develop?A. By providing examples.B. By making comparisons.C. By following the order of time.D.

Clemens, also known as Mark Twain, started off his writing career(事业) in 1865 with his big hit story The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Cala v eras County—a storywithinastory toldto a listener by an old California miner. From that day on, the works of the great humorist always had different animals.②Some members of Twain’s literary(文学的) animals were based on real animals, such as the Clemens family’s named pet cats. Some were imaginary, like that celebrated jumping frog.③As a boy in Missouri, he got pleasure from knowing the animals of the woods; in old age, he felt a deep relationship with the animals large and small that he met in his travels. His cats, family dog, horses, donkeys, and calf also won his three daughters’ love at their Hartford home. On March 22，2018, to mark this part of Twain’s personal life, The Mark Twain House & Museum opened a new exhibition(展览), Tails of Twain: How Animals Shaped the Man & His Work. The exhibition was rich with exhibits from the museum’s collections.④The king of the animals in Twain’s world was the cat，“the only creature in heaven or earth or anywhere that don’t have to obey(听从) somebody or other, including the angels”. He was known to be the proud pet parent of 19 cats during his childhood. As an adult, the Clemens home always had a named cat. Even on vacation, the Clemens family borrowed cats from locals to live with them. Dogs were considered secondclass pets, but Twain liked them. Twain once wrote an ode(颂诗) to his dead dog Burns：“She liveda quiet harmless life in Hartford...”⑤In true Twainism, humans were not as loved as the “Higher Animals”. Even the most lowdown animal, however, was superior in Twain’s eyes to “the human race”. After all, he did write once “Of all the animals, man is the only one that is cruel.”【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文。

Lisa, 25, had a lot to do at work, plus visitors on the way: her parents were coming in for Thanksgiving from her hometown. But as she hurried down the subway stairs, she started to feel uncomfortably warm. By the time she got to the platform, Lisa felt weak and tired—maybe it hadn’t been a good idea to give blood the night before, she thought. She rested herself against a post close to the tracks.Several yards away, Frank, 43, and his girlfriend, Jennifer, found a spot close to where the front of the train would stop. They were deep in discussion about a house they were thinking of buying.But when he heard the scream, followed by someone yelling, “Oh, my God, she fe ll in! ” Frank didn’t hesitate. He jumped down to the tracks and ran some 40 feet toward the body lying on the rails. “No! Not you! ”his girlfriend screamed after him.She was right to be alarmed. By the time Frank reached Lisa, he could feel the tracks shaking and see the light coming. The train was about 20 seconds from the station.It was hard to lift her. She was just out. But he managed to raise her the four feet to the platform so that bystanders could hold her by the arms and drag her away from the edge. That was where Lisa briefly regained consciousness, felt herself being pulled along the ground, and saw someone else holding her purse.Lisa thought she’d been robbed. A woman held her hand and a man gave his shirt to help stop the blood pouring from her head. And she tried to talk but she couldn’t, and that was when she realized how much pain she was in.Police and fire officials soon arrived, and Frank told the story to an officer. Jennifer said her boyfriend was calm on their 40-minute train ride downtown—just ashe had been seconds after the rescue, which made her think about her reaction at the time. “I saw the train coming and I was thinking he was going to die, ” she explained. 【语篇概述】本文主要讲述一个男士在地铁救一个晕倒的女人的故事。

On one of my trips to India, I saw children drinking water from the roadside. I was troubled to learn that millions of people, most of them children in developing countries, die each year because of water-related diseases.Living in the US, I am lucky to be able to turn on the tap and get potable water(饮用水), while one sixth of the world's population lacks access to clean water. This year, I entered the Discovery Education 3M Young Scientist Challenge. In late June, I learnt that I was selected as one of the top 10 national finalists of this famous middle school science competition. Over the summer, I worked with Dr Jim Jonza, my scientist mentor(导师) from 3M, and developed a system that uses solar energy to purify water. My invention is green and cost-effective, and I am looking forward to implementing this in places that are affected by harmful water pollution.In October, my family and I flew to 3M Headquarters in St Paul, Minnesota, where the final event was to be held. For the last challenge, each of us had to present the invention we had been working on over the summer. The first place winner would win $25,000, a trip to Costa Rica, and the title of America's Top Young Scientist. At the awards ceremony, all of us waited anxiously until one of the judges, Danny Forester, started announcing, "The winner of the Discovery Education 3M Young Scientist Challengeis …" You could hear a pin (大头针) drop as he opened the paper with the winner's name, "Deepika Kurup!"As America's Top Young Scientist, I was given an opportunity to show my invention on national television and deliver several presentations. One of the most important things I have learnt is that communication and teamwork are key to success.1.Why does the author mention her visits to India?A.To express her great love for India.B.To show the problem of unclean water.C.To explain the importance of relatives.D.To compare Eastern and Western cultures.2.Which of the following can replace the underlined word "implementing" in Paragraph 2?A.Researching.B.Changing.C.Finishing.ing.3.How did the audience react as Forester opened the paper with the winner's name?A.They appeared calm.B.They let out shouts of joy.C.They sat quietly.D.They dropped pins to the author.4.How is the text mainly organised?A.In order of time.B.In order of complexity (复杂性).C.In order of place.D.In order of importance.二、七选五2、阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

Clemens, also known as Mark Twain, started off his writing career(事业) in 1865 with his big hit story The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Cala v eras County—a storywithinastory told to a listener by an old California miner. From that day on, the works of the great humorist always had different animals.Some members of Twain’s literary(文学的) animals were based on real animals, such as the Clemens family’s named pet cats. Some were imaginary, like that celebrated jumping frog.As a boy in Missouri, he got pleasure from knowing the animals of the woods; in old age, he felt a deep relationshipwith the animals large and small that he met in his travels. His cats, family dog, horses, donkeys, and calf also won his three daughters’ love at their Hartford home. On March 22，2018, to mark this part of Twain’s personal life, The Mark Twain House & Museum opened a new exhibition(展览), Tails of Twain: How Animals Shaped the Man & His Work. The exhibition was ri ch with exhibits from the museum’s collections.The king of the animals in Twain’s world was the cat，“the only creature in heaven or earth or anywhere that don’t have to obey(听从) somebody or other, including the angels”. He was known to be the proud pet parent of 19 cats during his childhood. As an adult, the Clemens home always had a named cat. Even on vacation, the Clemens family borrowed cats from locals to live with them. Dogs were considered secondclass pets, but Twain liked them. Twain once wrote an ode(颂诗) to his dead dog Burns：“She lived a quiet harmless life in Hartford...”In true Twainism, humans were not as loved as the “Higher Animals”. Even the most lowdown animal, however, was superior in Twain’s eyes to “the human race”. After all, he did write once “Of all the animals, man is the only one that is cruel.”21．What can we learn about The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Cala v eras County?A．It tells a story of Twain’s family pet.B．It was written for Twain’s three daughters.C．It made Twain pay attention to animals.D．It was Twain’s first great success as a writer.22．What’s the main purpose of the new exhibition?A．To introduce how Twain spent his childhood.B．To exhibit some of Twain’s bestsellers.C．To show Twain’s different hobbies.D．To show Twain’s love for animals.23．What was Twain’s favorite animal?A．The dog.
