1、阅读下面的短文，将划线部分译成英文或中文。

An 8-year-old girl touched many Chinese people when she said she planned to give the shrimps(虾) from her school lunch to her sick mother.

The girl, Zhang Xiaoxiao, is from a primary school in Henan. She finished all vegetables and rice of the school lunch but left four shrimps. When asked for the reason, the girl, with a clear smile and light in her eyes, said she wanted to take the shrimps home for her mother Hu Mingjun. 1.She is in poor health and can’t do heavy work. Her father is a migrant worker(外来务工人员).

“She said she could not eat them all, but I know she worries about me.” Hu said. 2.她为女儿感到非常骄傲。 Zhang Xiaoxiao often brought fruits and milk home. Hu asked her to eat the food herself.

Zhang Pengcheng is the school headmaster. 3. He plays an important part in educating such a loving girl. His school has more than 180 students. Most of them are left-behind children. Some do not meet their parents even once a year. 4.Some children are too young to live in school by themselves, so he and his wife live with boys and girls separately. He understands the situation of the students’ families and helps them. 5.他经常花自己的钱给孩子们买食物。The school lunch has become the best meal for some children.

Zhang Pengcheng hopes the school can help more left-behind children in need of help in the future.

24、It is true that people with better education are usually able to get better paying jobs. In other words, they have more chances to choose a good job while people with little or no education don’t. It seems that the purpose of education is to make people get jobs. But this isn’t accepted by all people.

Some people may think that a person should spend the best years of his life to get education only for a way of living. This was probably one of the earliest reasons of education. In fact, if education is just a way of making a living, people don’t need to spend so much time in school. People can get education for a living in a short time. Subjects like history and geography need not be taught to everyone. Even language and mathematics need not be taught in detail(详细地), either. Here it is clear that education is much more than teaching a man to get a way of living.

Education is well-rounded. It is not only to teach him to speak, read and write, but also to develop his creative thinking and other abilities. And it is mainly for improving a man, it is to make him a wise man and thankfully enjoy the achievements of human. Education is to make a man lead a better life. Educated people are expected to be able to listen to good music, read good books, watch plays and take an interest in the world.

I would agree that making a good living is an important reason for education, but certainly not the most important or the main reason.

【1】People with little education usually   .

A. spend a long time in school

B. have a good chance to get a job

C. spend the best years to choose jobs

D. have fewer chances to get a good job

【2】The earliest education was probably to   .

A. make people take an interest in the world

B. teach a man to watch plays

C. make people get a way of living

D. teach people to read good books

【3】The underlined word “well-rounded” in the passage means “   “in Chinese.

A. 圆满的   B. 崭新的

C．公平的   D. 全面的

【4】The passage tells us that   .

A. education is mainly to make a man improve

B. people can get education in a short time

C. making a good living is the only reason for education

D. all subjects are so important for a way of living

25、As a student, I was most afraid to answer questions in class, and I found that the students around were just like me. At the beginning of each class, when the teacher asked a question, I always lowered my head because I was afraid that the teacher would see me.

One day, in a foreign language class, Mr. Black gave us a lesson. He wanted us to be active in class, so he asked us some questions, but no one answered. “Let me tell you a story first,” he said. “When I came to the United States to study, the university often invited famous people to make speeches. Before the beginning of every speech, I found an interesting thing. The students around me always took a card folded（折叠的）in half, wrote their names in bold（粗体）with the most eye-catching color, and then placed the cardboard on the seat. So when the speaker needed the answers from the students, he could see and call a listener’s name directly.”

“I couldn’t understand that. My classmate told me the speakers were all top people, who meant chances. When your answer was to his surprise, it meant he might give you more chances. In fact, I really saw a few students got great chances because of that.”

After listening to the story, I understood that the chance will not find you itself. You must show yourself all the time so that you can find a chance on the card.

【1】What did the writer’s classmates do when they were asked questions?

A．They raised their hands.

B．They lowered their heads.

C．They closed their eyes.

D．They shook their heads.
