“Volunteering makes you look at the world differently. You see how little things can change a person’s life for the better, which makes everyone a better person.” Mason, a volunteer said.
National Volunteer Week started in 1974 and is held every April. It is a time to thank volunteers for their achievements. It is also a perfect opportunity (机会) to encourage others to take their first step toward becoming a volunteer. Making the decision to take the first step can be the biggest problem, because they often wonder if they will be able to meet the organization’s expectations (期望). Some people fear not knowing anyone else in the group. Not having enough time also prevents some from sharing their abilities. .
The following tips can help if you have some of these worries.
★ Start out slowly, don’t add too much pressure. Even a few hours a month can make a big difference in someone’s life.
★ Choose an organization with the same interests and common values. ★ Take part in a training meeting for new volunteers, even if it is not asked. ★ Work with a veteran volunteer. He volunteered a lot, he can help you increase the confidence and completely understand the organization’s expectations. ★ Invite a friend or family member to serve. It is a good experience to volunteer with them. ★ Finally, it is most important to enjoy the volunteer experience and to remember that not all volunteer experiences are perfect. If one experience doesn’t work, don’t give up and you’ll surely find the right opportunity.
Spend some time on volunteer work and you will see great changes in people’s lives. As Mason discovered during his volunteer experience, “…little things can change a person’s life.”

蒲公英
高晓云
有一种野菜,母亲亲切地叫它“黄黄”,儿时的我一直学着母亲的叫法叫它“黄黄”。它有细密的花瓣,每一层花瓣又都排列得那么整齐划一,最先舒展的排列在花朵最外边,细而长,像极了那一把把江南女子撑着的油纸伞。
小黄花虽小,开起来也有别样的傲气。在万物复苏伊始,在燕子还未归来之际,在草儿才开始探头探脑之时,只要春过处,它不择环境、不择冷暖,只要泥土吐露芬芳,那朵朵小金花,就以一个家族的霸气开的娇艳无比、开的高高低低、一泻千里。
当花落之时,它又变成另一种样子的小灯塔,像一颗颗绿色的桃心。没有花苞那样饱圆润,但桃心形长得却非常的标准、可爱。此时,花茎将它举得更高了,慢慢地、默默地不知什么时候,从桃心似的灯塔里孕育出了它的种子,那一个个种子都插上了仙子的翅膀,慢慢被释放了出来。它们你拥着我、我挨着你十分亲密,瓜子仁形的细小的种子每人手中都高举着一个棉花糖,好像要开一场盛大的宴会。它们的小集体整体呈现出来就变成一个个毛茸茸的圆球了,圆得简直不可思议!然而,天下没有不散的宴席,在微风的召唤中,对飞行技术轻车熟路的“小伞兵”们就开始了它人生中的美好的旅行,脚步停留在哪里,下一次春来,那里便是一道绚丽的风景!
后来一次偶然的 机会我终于知道了它的学名——蒲公英。
春天来时,母亲就一手挎着芨芨草编成的小篮,篮子里随手放上两把小铲子,一手带着蹒跚学步的我,在田埂边、在沟渠里找寻着蒲公英。不一会儿母亲就铲满了一篮。回到家,母亲将藏匿在其中的泥沙洗得干干净净,“黄黄”的叶子都发亮了。之后在开水锅里烫熟了,捞出又放进冷水里漂一天。母亲说这样漂了苦味就淡了,味道就更鲜美了。漂完后,母亲又把水攥干,切段放进盆里撒了盐、花椒,用熟油过了一遍,加上味精拌匀又加了少许的醋继续拌匀。母亲夹起一筷子尝了尝说:“好香啊!”对于年幼的我来说,那涩涩的苦味是不合我的口味的。渐渐长大了,尝过了很多菜,相比之下,才尝出“黄黄”留在最后的清香、合口、出淤泥而不染。上了小学后我也能学着母亲的样子一手挎篮一手拿铲,寻觅蒲公英的身影了。每到春天,寻觅它成为了我童年的趣事,也成了我人生中的美好而幸福的回忆。
而今,我已初为人母。每到春天,恰巧碰到母亲农闲时,我会随着母亲、带着蹒跚学步的孩子,一人一个小篮,一人一把小铲,我挎着母亲的臂弯,孩子挎着我的臂弯,三人连接成一个一字长阵,选择在一个阳光大好的下午,迈着悠闲的步子,在田间地头甜蜜地寻找着或吐绿或芬芳的蒲公英。
我们就这样享受着阳光洒满田间地头、洒满全身的温暖,还有三代亲情,在平整的田间、在柔软的田埂边寻觅着。我想:蒲公英之所以有这样旺盛的生命力,不仅因为它有着成千上万个像小伞兵似的种子,还因为它那不挑剔、不高傲,生在哪里哪里就是家那样随遇而安的品性吧!
又一个春来时,母亲打电话询问我:“吃不吃‘黄黄’?”谁料,星期一的清晨,我刚到单位门口,门房大爷就说有人给我带东西了。原来母亲托人将“黄黄”从乡下带到便车上,辗转又带到了我的手上。清晨7:30,我的手里已经扎扎实实捧着一袋包装完好的“黄黄”。 “黄黄”于手掌之中,还是温热的!
母亲对她的“黄黄”依然热情不减。其实,它的味道一直以来都是苦的,哪怕是在被烫熟漂了一晚上之后,也还是苦的。在她小时候那个挨饿的年代里,“黄黄”曾救过许多人的命。那是怎样的一种喜爱与感激之情啊!渐渐的,我在无形之中也开始逐年逐年地越发喜欢它了,不仅喜欢它金黄色的、灯塔似的小花,喜欢它的小种子拉开小伞破釜沉舟地放飞着自己的梦想那样的魄力,喜欢它飞到哪里哪里就是它的家那样随遇而安的心胸,更喜欢能带着孩子跟着母亲一起找寻它小巧的身影的那一份温馨,那一份挚爱亲情。
此刻,我竟是这般固执,这般固执地想念“黄黄”,想念那个把蒲公英叫“黄黄”的人。

示例二:以“我与母亲”为标题好。理由:“我与母亲”直抒胸臆,兼有点题之效,让人一览无余;“我” 对“母亲”的情感,是文章的主要内容,“蒲公英”只是一种媒介物而已。
19. BC【B“凸显‘天下没有不散的宴席的道理’”错,应是描绘出蒲公英开放的繁密与热烈;C“不仅回忆了往昔生活的苦涩,也衬托出今日生活的甘甜”文中无依据。】

One day an ant was drinking at a small stream and fell in. She made desperate efforts to reach the side, but made no progress at all. The poor ant almost

hand. As soon as he saw the dove, he wished to kill it. He would certainly have done so, but the ant bit him in the foot just as he raised his gun to fire.

"Get up, get up, Jim. It's time to get up!" my mother said while she was pushing me. I opened my eyes and looked at the clock. "Oh dear! It's a quarter to eight already. I'll be late for school again," I thought. I jumped out of the bed, washed my face, then hurried to the bus stop without breakfast. As soon as I got on the bus, it started running. "I'm sure I can get to the school on time," I said to myself. Suddenly the bus stopped. The bus driver got off the bus, then got on the bus again and said, "I'm sorry, ladies and gentlemen. There's something wrong with the bus. Please get off the bus and wait for another one." "I couldn't wait. The school is not far. I'd better run to the school," I thought, and then I began to run. But before I got to
the school, it began to rain hard.
I reached the classroom but I was wet shivering with cold. The physics teacher had already begun his lesson. It was Mr. Smith. He was about fifty years old. All the students were a little afraid of him and so was I. I liked neither him nor his physics lessons. I hesitated for a moment and then I opened the door. "I'm very sorry,
Mr. Smith. I'm late again," I said with a red face. "It's you again, Jim," Mr. smith said angrily. "I've told you not be late, but you…" he suddenly stopped and looked at my wet clothes. He turned to the class and said, "I'm very sorry, my boys and girls." With these words he quickly took off his own jacket and handed it to me. "Now take off your wet coat and put this one or you'll
catch cold," he said kindly.
I went to my seat with Mr. Smith's jacket on. It was a bit large for me but I felt very warm in it. I found, for the first time, physics was so interesting and how well I could understand it!

Passage 9
There was once a captain who loved money so much that he cheated his sailors
at the end of every voyage and took their wages. On the last day of one voyage, the ship was in a small port. It was winter time, and the sea was very cold, so the captain said to his sailors, "If one of you stays in the water during the whole night, I will give him my ship. But if he comes out
before the sun appears, I shall get his wages." The sailors had heard about the captain's cheating, so they didn't trust him. But then one of them, who thought that he was cleverer than the captain, said that he would do it. He got into the water, and, though it was very cold, he stayed in it. When it was nearly morning, some fishermen lit a fire on the shore about half
a mile away.
"You are cheating," the captain said to the sailor. "The fire's warming you." "But it's half a mile away!" said the sailor.
"A fire's fire," answered the captain. "I have won." The sailor came out of the water, and said, "Perhaps you think that you are clever because you have won my wages, but you can't cook a chicken."
"I can," answered the captain.
"If you cook this chicken," said the sailor, "I shall work for you without wages for seven years, but if you can't, you will give me your ship." The captain agreed, took the chicken and said, "Where's the fire?" "There it is," answered the sailor. "On the shore."
"But it's half a mile away," said the captain angrily. " 'A fire's fire,' you said," answered the sailor. "If it is enough to warm me in the water, it is enough to cook your chicken."

阅读理解综合练习
Several years ago, a television reporter was talking to three of the most important people in America. One was a very rich banker, another owned one of the largest companies in the world, and the third owned many buildings in the center of New York.
The reporter was talking to them about being important.
“How do we know if someone is really important?” the reporter asked the banker.
The banker thought for a few moments and then said, “I think anybody who is invited to the Whiter House to meet the President of the United States is really important.”
The reporter then turned to the owner of the very large company. “Do you agree with that?” she asked.
The man shook his head, “No. I think the President invites a lot of people to the White House. You‘d only be important if while you were visiting the President, there was a telephone call from the president of another country, and the President of the US said he was too busy to answer it.”
The reporter turned to the third man. “Do you think so?”
“No, I don‘t,” he said. “I don’t think that makes the visitor important. That makes the President important.”
“Then what would make the visitor important?” the reporter and the other two men asked.
“Oh, I think if the visitor to the White House was talking to the President and the phone rang, and the President picked up the receiver, listened and then said, ‘It’s for you.‘ ”

英语阅读理解及答案8
French and American doctors have done an operation (手术) together in which the doctors were outside the operating room. This kind of operation is known as robotic operation. Doctor Marescaux did the operation in an office in New York City last month, while a sixty-eight-year-old woman patient was in a hospital in Strasbourg, France. A doctor in Strasbourg got the patient ready. He placed medical tools and a small video camera in her stomach area (谓部). Doctor Marescaux in New York watched the patient on a video screen. Then he used the computer to send messages to the robot machine. The robot moved the tools that cut the woman’s gallbladder (胆囊) away. The woman got well soon after the operation and left the hospital two days later. Experts say the main problem with such a robotic operation is based on high-speed telecommunications (通讯系统) between the doctor and the robot. Technology must be able to send a doctor’s order to a robot to move the tool quickly.
Experts also say a successful robotic operation will improve an operation. For
example, the robot can make such smaller movements (动作) than a person can. A robot machine can turn tools in ways that a doctor’s hand cannot. Doctors say such a robotic operation will make possible safer and better operations in the future. They say it will improve doctor training. It will also mean that doctors could do an operation on people in dangerous places far away. And it could mean that people could have operations done by top doctors without having to travel to the city where the doctors work. 1. The underlined phrase “ robotic operation” means “________.” A. a special kind of robot invented by doctors B. something done to mend a robot. C. an operation done by French and American doctors D. an operation done far away with the help of a robot. 2. We use the robot in the operation because _________. A. it can send messages in a high speed B. even a top doctor can’t do the operation himself C. it can make the operation safer and better D. operations can be done without and doctors. 3. If we want to use the robot in the operation, we must solve the problem of ________. A. top doctors B. smaller movement C. doctor training D. high-speed telecommunications 4. Which of the following is NOT right? A. Robotic operation has been used in the USA. B. Robotic operation is good for doctor training C. Experts speak highly of robotic operation. D. The robot is used to watch the patient clearly. 5. What’s the best title for this passage?
A. An Operation B. Robotic Operation
C. How to Do A Robotic Operation D. The Problems of A Robotic Operation

“Leave him alone!” I shouted as I walked out of the garden gate。 There were two strong bullies pushing a deaf kid around。 They pushed the kid down on the ground and kicked him as hard as they could on the back。 The deaf kid’s body started shaking all over and he curled up to hide his face。
I ran as fast as I could back through the garden gate and into the thick bushes。 I grabbed my home—made bow and four arrows。 Then I ran back out of the gate。 “If you’re brave enough to kick him again, I’ll…” I said, shaking like a leaf。
The poor kid then made a sound that I will never forget。 It sounded like a whale when it is being attacked and knows that it is about to die。 I fired all of my arrows at the two bullies as they ran away laughing about what they had done。
I pulled the kid up off the ground and helped him back to his house。 When we reached his home, his sister told me that her brother was deaf。 He was very smart, but he could not say or hear anything。 I told her that he did make a sound when the bully kicked him on the back。 She told me that I must be mistaken because all her brother’s vocal cords (声带) had been removed during an experimental surgery, which had failed。
The kid gave me a sign as I was about to leave。 His sister told me that he was saying that he loved me with his hands。 I didn’t say anything back to her because I didn’t believe her at all。
The next day several bullies chased me around the garden。 Finally I made a dash for the fence and tried to climb over it to escape。 I saw the deaf kid sitting there and looking at me as they pulled me down from the fence。 They dragged me by my legs, screaming and shouting。 All I could hear was the sound of that whale being attacked again。 That is when I realized that he probably really did love me。
31。 How did the author know that the kid was deaf
A。 The kid’s sister told him。 B。 The two bullies told him。
C。 The kid told him by gesture。
D。 He discovered by his own carefully watching。
32。 Why did the author run back into the thick bushes
A。 To ask for help。 B。 To escape from being bullied。
C。 To get his bow to frighten the bullies。
D。 To tell the deaf kid’s sister what had happened。
33。 When the author said, “If you’re brave enough to kick him again, I’ll…,” he was probably 。
A。 excited B。 proud C。 scared D。 upset
34。 The deaf kid’s sister mentioned vocal cords to show that 。
A。 her brother could not hear anything
B。 her brother could not make any sound
C。 her brother suffered a lot from the surgery
D。 her brother could only make a sound like a whale
35。 What did the author learn in the end

英语阅读理解及答案13
Real policemen hardly recognize any resemblance between their lives and what they see on TV —if they everget home in time. There are similarities, of course, but the cops don't think much of them.
The first difference is that a policeman's real life revolves round the law. Most of his training is in criminal law. He has to know exactly what actions are crimes and what evidence can be used to prove them in court. He has to know as a professional lawyer, and what is more, he has to apply it on his feet, in the dark and rain, running down an alley after someone he wants to talk to.
Little of his time is spent in chatting to scantily-clad (穿衣不多的) ladies or in dramatic confrontationswith desperate criminals. He will spend most of his working life typing millions of words on thousands of forms about hundreds of sad, unimportant people who are guilty —or not —of stupid, petty crimes.
Most television crime drama is about finding the criminal: as soon as he's arrested, the story is over. i real life, finding criminals is seldom much of a problem. Except in very serious cases like murders and terrorist attacks — where failure to produce results reflects on the standing of the police —little effortis spent on searching.
Having made an arrest, a detective really starts to work. He has to prove his case in court and to do thathe often has to gather a lot of different evidence. So, as well as being overworked, a detective has to beout at all hours of the day and night interviewing his witnesses and persuade them usually against their own best interests, to help him.
练习题:
Choose correct answers to the question:
1.The first sentence implies that ________.
A.the life of the real policemen and that of the policemen on TV are entirely different
B.the real policemen will find the similarities if they can get home in time
C.the real policemen seldom can get home in time to watch TV
D.the policemen shown on TV can always get home in time
2.It is essential for a policeman to be trained in criminal law _____.
A.so that he can catch criminals in the streets
B.because many of the criminals he has to catch are dangerous
C.so that he can justify his arrests in court
D.because he has to know nearly as much about law as a professional lawyer
3.The everyday life of a policeman or detective is ______.
A.exciting and glamorous
B. full of danger
C.devoted mostly to routine matters
D. wasted on unimportant matters
4.When murders and terrorist attacks occur,the police______.
A.prefer to wait for the criminal to give himself away
B.make great efforts to try to track down their man
C.try to make a quick arrest in order to keep up their reputation
D.usually fail to produce results
5.What’s the best title for the passage?
A.Policemen and Detective
B.Policemen’s Life-Fun and Fantasy
C.The Real Life of a Policeman
D.Drama and Reality

1.[C] 推理判断题。本题考查对第1句的理解。if引出的条件状语从句前的破折号表明这个假设是相对于之前的看电视来说的,而不是相对于整句话的。该句特意用if作补充说明,暗示了一些附加的信息:真实生活中的警察通常很晚回家,连看电视都赶不上。由此可见,C是正确的.理解。A说法过于绝对,与原文的hardly不符。
2.[C] 推理判断题。本题考查内在的因果关系。从第2段第3句可以推断出答案,A毫无原文依据,原文中也并没有暗示B和D这两种因果关系。
3.[C] 推理判断题。本题考查对长句的理解。根据第3段第2句可以推断出答案。本题最具干扰性的是B,按照常识,警察的工作通常都被认为很危险,但是第3段第1句由Little引出的倒装句表明了他们很少与亡命之徒交锋,并非充满危险,因此B不对;而D将在文中用来修饰people的unimportant拿来修饰“事情”,显然偷换概念,曲解原文。
4.[B] 推理判断题。本题考查对复合句的理解。答题关键在于正确理解第4段最后一句,except引出的句子暗示警方只有在遇到特别严重的犯罪时追捕罪犯才会花费很大的气力,B符合文意。本题最具干扰性的是C,由本句第2个破折号后的内容可知此处主要强调“费不费劲”的问题,而C中的make a quick airest并未突显出原文的关键含义,不如B准确。
5.[C] 主旨大意题。本文的重点是说瞀察们的现实生活,全文将这种现实生活与电视里面展现的作比较,是为澄清事实,故C可概括全文主题。
