GeographyBThere is an old saying about volunteer work that goes like this：“ No one can do everything, but everyone can do something.”Today, many people volunteer their time and energy to help others. There are a lot of ways to meet other people’s needs. For example, some volunteers provide help after a disaster. Others are happy to get dirty while repairing homes or planting trees or flowers in poor neighborhoods. Young people see suffering and loneliness around them and find ways to help. And history lovers help archeologists（考古学家） search for ancient objects to help deepen our knowledge of the past.Volunteers work in many areas around the world, including Haiti. More than two years have passed since a 7.0 earthquake shook the nation. The exact number of people who died may never be known. Thousands of survivors of the Haitian earthquakes still live in temporary（临时的） shelters. Last year, former American President Jimmy Carter and his wife Rosalynn joined five hundred volunteers in the town of Leogane to build houses.Organizations do not have to be large to get volunteers. An activist group in Dharamsala, India is a good example, Jodie Underhill from England arrived in northern India several years ago. She planned to volunteer for an environmental project. She could almost not believe how much rubbish wa s ruining some of the area’s most beautiful sights. Jodie Underhill learned about how to deal with the rubbish while taking part in other volunteer p rojects. But soon enough she formed her own group, Mountain Cleaners. Jodie Underhill says the work is very hard. But she praises the group’s efforts as a wonderful experience. The young Englishwomansays the Indian media started calling her “Garbage Girl”. And she says she was pleased with the name.American teenagers also volunteer in many ways .25. The first paragraph serves as a（n） ___________.A. explanationB. introductionC. commentD. background26.

The volunteer work that American teenagers do.COldest , Youngest , or in the Middle ？Were you the first or last child in your family？ Or were you a middle or the only child？Some people think it matters where you were born in your family. But there are different ideas about what birth order means.Some people say that oldest children are smart and strong-willed. They are very likely to be successful. The reason for this is simple. Parents have a lot of time for their first child. They give him or her a lot of attention. So this child is very likely to do well. An only child will succeed for the same reasons.What happens to the other children in a family？Middle children don’t get so much attention. So they don’t feel that important. If a family has many children, the middle ones sometimes get lost in the crowd. The youngest child, though, often gets special treatment. He or she is the “baby”. Often this child grows up to be funny and charming.Do you believe these ideas about birth order？ A recent study saw things quite differently. This study found that the first children believed in family rules. They didn’t take many chances in their lives. They usually followed their own ideas . They took chances. And they often did better in life.Which theory about birth order do you believe？Look at your own family or you friends’ families. Decide which idea fits what you see.29. This passage is about __________.A. why the oldest children in a family usually succeedB. why some children refuse to follow ordersC. ways in which birth order may affect how children grow upD. how people have a lot of trouble agreeing about ideas30. The statement that middle children “ sometimes get lost in the crowd” means that_________.A. they have a poor sense of directionB. they don’t get a lot of attentionC. they have a strong desire to be leadersD. they can’t get along with others31. The underlined word “ theory “ means ________.A. ideaB. comparisonC. evidenceD. surpriseDIn a movie, a woman reads a storybook to her friend’s daughter. As they approach the last page, she reads, “… and Cinderella and the prince lived happily ever after.” She closes the book and looks at the young girl, adding, “ You know, things don’t always happen like this in real life, I just think you should know that now.”We were all rai sed on fairy tales with glass slippers, brave princes and magic! It didn’t take too long to realize that stories like that aren’t necessarily true. In real life, you learn that glass slippers are really uncomfortable, no prince is perfect and magic doesn’t always work.So what do you do when the way you planned things is not the way they turned out？Know that parts of your fairy tale have already been written, and sadly, there’s not much you can do about those first few chapters. You didn’t get the be st start. Your trust was unexpectedly betrayed （背叛）. You didn’t get the job. Whatever falls and failures happened in your past, there’s still more to the story.Your life has a lot of contributors （投稿者）, and you are the editor-in-chief. You take what’s there and create the masterpiece （杰作）. All the good pages and the bad can come together to make a beautiful adventure.When you find yourself wishing your life was more like the fairy tales, remember that in some ways it already is. There will be dragons, bad witches, great romances, winding roads and friends to help you along the way. Live your life carefully and positively as if you are writing a long story. Whether it’s a comedy, tragedy or a little of both, the pen is in your hand. How it ends is all up to you.32.
