24、The Big Lottery is giving money to groups of teenagers between 14 and 19 who want to become active citizens. The teenagers who would like to help make the area you live in better, cleaner, safer and more friendly can actually get money for improving your local community (社区).We have $ 80,000 to give away. We are looking for young people to take part in schemes(规划) and projects near to where they live.

Here are a few easy things you could do to get started.

Meeting the neighbors: Everybody needs good neighbors. Knock on people’s door and find out what they would like improving in your area. Set a date for a meeting and then make some plans together. If you don’t want to go round to their houses, then you could always put a note through their doors.

Neighborhood watch: Neighborhood watch schemes are very popular in the UK. If you go away on holiday and leave your house, it’s very nice to know that a neighbor is keeping an eye on it. It’s a good way to make the area you live in safer. You could set one up easily and quickly.(Paragraph 4)

Lending a hand: There are often elderly people living in the neighborhood who may not be able to do the things that you can. Offer to do their shopping once a week, look after their garden for them or maybe walk their dog.(Paragraph 5)

No littering: Nobody likes picking up other people’s rubbish, but a clean street can make all the difference. Take it in turns to go out once or twice a week and see what you can find. You never know, one day you might find something valuable.

Recycling: Nearly two-thirds of your rubbish can be recycled. Some areas already provide places to people to recycle bottles, tins, plastic and paper. Find out if this is done in your neighborhood. If it’s not, do something about it.

So go on … Just tell us what kind of project you want to join in. Then we’ll send you more details. Take positive action and help make your neighborhood a better place to live in.

25、   Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while—then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us develop more slowly but then become lifelong feelings, reaching deeply into both families. Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be happier if we accept their hospitality(友好) easily.

Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they treat us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don’t show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time. Sometimes, we, as hosts（主人）, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to  our foreign friends. The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but truly can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily life. They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real.

We will find ourselves treated hospitably.

For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for only business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!

【1】This passage is probably from________.

A.a novel B.a magazine C.a letter D.a diary

【2】The underlined words generous with our time probably mean ________.

A.strict with time B.careful with time

C.thankful to time D.glad to spend time

【3】The passage is about________.

A.the way Americans treat visitors

B.the way Chinese treat visitors

C.the differences between Americans and Chinese

D.the differences between American culture and Chinese culture

【4】From the passage, we can learn that when we arrive in America to visit an American friend, we’ll probably be ________.

A.welcomed at the airport B.offered a ride to his home

C.treated hospitably at his home D.invited to dinner in a restaurant

【5】Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?

A.Friendship between Americans usually reach deeply into their families.

B.Friendships between American usually last for all their lives.

C.Americans always show their warmth even if they are very busy.

D.Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long break.

27、   It was a cold December evening in New York City, and my daughter and I were walking up Broadway. Nora noticed a man sitting inside a cardboard box in the roadside. She turned to me and said, "That man's cold, Daddy. Can we take him home?"

I don't remember my reply, but I do remember a sudden heavy feeling inside me. I had always been delighted(欣喜) at how much my daughter noticed in her world, whether it was birds flying or children playing. But now she was noticing suffering and poverty. She wasn't even four.

A few days later, I saw an article in the newspaper about volunteers who offered meals to elderly people. The volunteers went to a nearby school on a Sunday morning, picked up a food package(包裹), and offered it to an elderly person. And we joined it. Nora was excited about it.

She could understand the importance of food, so she could easily see how valuable our job was.

When Sunday came, we picked up the package and phoned the elderly person we needed to help.

She invited us at once.

The building was dark. When the door opened, facing us was a silver-haired woman in an old dress. She took the package and asked if we would like to come in. Nora ran inside. I followed. The woman showed us some photos of her family. Nora played and laughed. I accepted a second cup of tea. When it came time to say good-bye, we three stood in the doorway and hugged. I walked home in tears.

Where else but as volunteers do you have the opportunity to do something enjoyable that's good for yourself as well as for others? Indeed, the poverty my daughter and I helped lessen(减少) that Sunday afternoon was not the woman's alone—it was in our lives, too.

【1】The writer and his daughter met a man on a ________ night.

A．spring

B．fall

C．winter

【2】The writer's daughter was ________ years old then.

A．less than four

B．four

C．more than four

【3】In paragraph 2, the underline word "poverty" means ________ in Chinese.

A．痛苦

B．贫穷

C．富裕

【4】The writer's daughter felt ________ at the woman's home that Sunday afternoon.

A．excited

B．worried

C．tired

【5】What is the best title for this passage?

A．A Loving Kid

B．Volunteers at Work

C．A Lesson in Caring

28、语法填空：用所给单词的适当形式填空，未提供单词的限填一词。

One day, a teacher entered the classroom and gave the students an exam. To 【1】(everyone)surprise, there were no questions on the papers, just a black dot in the center of the paper.

The teacher saw the 【2】(express) on their faces and said, “I want you to write down 【3】 you see.” At the end of the class, the teacher took all the answer papers and started reading. All of them described the black dot and tried to give 【4】 explanation where it was and what it was like on the paper. At the end of the lesson, the classroom was 【5】 (complete) quiet.

The teacher began to explain, “I 【6】(read) all your answer papers, but I am not going to grade you according to this. I just want you【7】(think) about something. No one wrote about the white part of the paper. Everyone focused on the black dot. Our life is a gift filled【8】love and care. We always have reasons to celebrate --- friends【9】help us or jobs that support our lives. We fix too much on the dark spots --- the health problems, the lack of money or the bad relationship with a family member, etc. The dark dots are really【10】(annoy), but they are small. Take your eyes away from them in your life.”
