1、第一节 语篇翻译 阅读下面的短文,将划线部分译成英文或中文。
Every year on 15th October, over 200 million people around the world take part in Global Handwashing Day. But why do we have a day for something we do all the time? Well, research shows that not enough people often wash their hands with soap1. This leads to the deaths of millions of people every year.
Sidibe, a public health expert says soap is ‘the most beautiful invention in public health’. 2. 用肥皂洗手对你的健康有好处。
However, washing hands with soap does not happen as often as you might think. This is because there aren’t enough resources(资源) in poorer countries, but it’s also because for many people, handwashing is not part of their everyday life.3. It’s not easy for people to change habits they learned in early childhood. But this is what Global Handwashing Day wants to do.
In 2008, the Indian cricket team joined around 100 million Indian schoolchildren in washing their hands to promote(促进) the first ever Global Handwashing Day. Every year since then, many different events have been held around the world. In 2014, Global Handwashing Day was used in the fight against Ebola, a very serious disease, with events held in affected (受感染的) African countries. 4. 现在在非洲越来越多的人用肥皂洗手。
Today, local and national leaders continue to use the day to spread the importance of cleaning hands. 5. They hope that handwashing becomes a necessary part of people’s lives. And it is believed that handwashing can improve the health of millions of people around the world.

21、Many people say that they are working too many hours. They don't have enough time to relax or to stay with their family.
Work hours are different from one country to another. In France,people spend about 1 646 hours a year at work. In Japan,however,people work about 2 519 hours a year. That means a Japanese worker works 513 more hours a year than a French worker.
Why do people work so many hours?Some people work extra hours because they want to make more money. However,many companies don't pay overtime. Their workers don't get more pay for more work. Some people think it's their duty to work more hours. Some are afraid of losing their jobs if they don't work more hours.
Many people say that their vacations are too short. In France,people get five weeks of paid vacation a year. In Germany,they get four to six weeks,and in the United States,two weeks. One study shows fewer than half of workers used all their vacation days. In Great Britain,there is a saying,“All work and no play makes Jack a dull (迟钝的) boy.” If that is true,there must be a lot of dull people in the world.
【1】The word “extra” in Paragraph 3 means “____”.

22、 How do you feel when you teacher asks you to work on a group project with other student? Do you like to work together with others or work alone?
The Programme for International Student Assessment, or PISA, carried out a survey of student's ability to work together in groups. They found that students who do well on tests by themselves are also likely to be better at working with other people. This finding was true for many countries. Students in Japan, South Korea, Finland and Canada, where test scores are high, also did well in working together to solve problems.
But this was not the case for every country. Chinese students, who have high scores as well, displayed just average collaborative (合作的)skills. "One reason might be that Chinese parents and teachers focus too much on grades," said Zhao Zhongxin, former vice president of the Chinese Family Education Association. "Students have a lot of exam pressure and they see schools as places for competition." "However, collaborative skills are very important for preparing students for today's society." he added. "Luckily, more Chinese parents and teachers are realizing the importance of this and are thinking of ways to help students improve this skill."
Another interesting finding from the PISA survey was that girls can be better than boys at working together. They said girls show more positive attitudes (态度)to wards relationships, which means they are more willing to listen to other' opinions.
PISA also found that the classroom environment can influence how well students collaborate. In classes where there are a lot of activities that require communication such as class debates, students might have better attitudes towards collaborating.
【1】The PISA did the survey to find out the students' ability to____________.
A.work with other people B.get high scores on tests
C.solve difficult problems D.make plans for projects
【2】What can we know from the findings of the survey?
A.Boys are better at working with others than girls.
B.Students who do well on tests are worse at working with others.
C.Collaborative skills are less important than scores for students' futures.
D.The classroom environment can influence students' ability to work together.
【3】What do Chinese teachers and parents think of working together now?
A.They like it a lot.
B.They can't stand it.
C.They think it's important.
D.They think it's unnecessary
【4】What can be done to improve students' ability to work together according to the passage?
A.Giving students high scores on every test.
B.Helping students to get used to exam pressure.
C.Making girls work with girls rather than boys.
D.Arranging more communicative activities in class.
【5】What's the passage mainly about?
A.The popularity of PISA across the world.
B.Chinese students' ability to work with others.
C.The findings of a survey about working together.
D.The difference between boys and girls in working together.

24、
Mr. and Mrs. March lived together with their four daughters. Amy was very shy. Beth loved being at home. Meg looked very pretty. Jo was tall and thin and she was a tomboy. Their home was always busy and full of noise and people. Next to them lived old Mr. Laurence and his grandson, Laurie. They lived in a very large and comfortable house. But it was a house without life.
One day, Joe saw Laurie standing at an upstairs window in his house and looking down at their garden. Jo’s sisters were playing in the snow there. They were throwing snowballs and having a lot of fun. But Laurie’s face was very sad.
“Poor boy!” Jo thought. “He’s all alone. He needs some friends.” She couldn’t stop thinking about him. She wanted to go and see him, but how could she go to the house without an invitation?
Then one snowy afternoon, she saw Laurie’s grandpa go out. This gave her an idea. She took a broom from the kitchen.
“What are you going to do, Jo?” asked her sister Meg.
“To clear the garden path.” answered Jo.
When Laurie saw Jo from the window, a big smile changed his pale, sad face.
Jo laughed and shouted, “How are you? Are you ill?”
Laurie opened the window and said, “I’m better now, thank you. I had a bad cold and had to stay inside for a week”.
“I’m sorry,” said Jo. “Are you bored?”
“Yes, very.” he replied.
“Don’t your friends come to visit you?”
“No. But I don’t want to see anybody. Boys are noisy and they give me a headache.”
“Girls are quiet.”
“I don’t know any girls.”
“You know us.”
“That’s true! Can you come and visit me?” cried Laurie.
“I’m not quiet, but I’d like to come,” replied Jo. “I must ask Mother first.” She ran back into her house.
A few minutes later, she returned and rang the bell on the door of laurie’s house. A servant took her upstairs.
“Here I am!” she said brightly. “Mother sends her love and my sisters gave me this blancmange(牛奶冻)for you.”
“That looks yummy,” Laurie said. He was very happy to see Jo.
Jo looked around. There were lots of books on the shelves.
“A nice room!” she said. “I can read to you if you like.”
“No, let’s talk,” replied Laurie.
“All right.” said Jo, “I can talk for hours. My sisters say I never know when to stop.”
“You have three sisters-Amy, Beth and Meg.”Laurie continued.
“How do you know this?” Jo was surprised.
“You call each other’s names when you are in the garden. Sometimes I can see you all around the table with your mother. She has a very kind face. I like looking at her. I haven’t got a mother.” Jo felt sad when she heard this.
“Why don’t you come and visit us?” she said, “It isn’t good for you to stay in this house all the time.”
“Thank you. I’d like to come very much.” said Laurie.
“We know all our neighbours except you.” Jo said, “I’m glad we’ re friends now.”
She told him about all the interesting things in her life. She said, “Besides plays, I also love books.” Laurie loved books too, and offered to show her the library in the house. The library was a wonderful room. Jo loved it.
“Wow!” she said, “All those books!”
Laurie said, “A person needs more than books.”
Just then the bell rang and a servant came in....
