Thein Shwe is sitting with one of his students, 14-year-old Nur Hakim, outside a small classroom built of wood. Thein Shwe has been working at this non-formal primary education centre since it was first set up five years ago. He says, “I love teaching. I was a personal tutor (家庭教师) before. When I learnt that this centre was looking for teachers, I applied.”
Thein Shwe is very popular among his students. Even Nur Hakim, who at first was very shy, becomes more confident as his teacher smiles, nodding to encourage him. I come from a poor family, says Nur Hakim. “My father died when I was a baby.”
Nur Hakim’s father, who was a factory worker, was the main provider. Since his father’s death, his mother has had to support the family of six by herself. Nur Hakim was not attending school until the age of 12, when he got the chance to attend this non-formal primary education centre. “I love English and I love my teacher because he is always on time and teaches us well,” says the boy.
Nur Hakim says he hopes to join Grade 5 students next year in a nearby government school. Nur Hakim holds on to his dreams. “I want to be a doctor,”he says.“In my village, I see a lot of illnesses.”
Thein Shwe admits he finds it difficult to support his family working as a volunteer. But Thein Shwe talks more about the successes and difficulties he has faced keeping his students in class. He says over the four years, about 80% of the students continue on to the government school or vocational (职业的) training.
When Thein Shwe is asked about his main success as a teacher, he needs no time to think. “It’s being able to keep the poorest children in school,” he says.

D. Sending his students to schools of higher education levels.

Sri Lanka is a beautiful island nation best seen slowly, even if you have only four days there like I did.
The train in the country was my preferred means of transport ( 交通方式). My ticket, from Colombo to Kandy, with comfortable seats and a big picture window, cost $19 for the 2.5 hours ride. I got a second-class seat on the Kandy-to-Ella route (路线) and paid about $ 22 for the nearly seven-hour trip through the green hills and tea gardens of central Sri Lanka.
Gentle rain said hello to us as we entered Kandy. The Gamage family in William Gopallawa Mawatha Street hosted ( 招 待 ) me. The lovely family, including parents, children and other family members, put me up for two nights in their home for $13 every night. My room was basic but comfortable, and came with a delicious breakfast spread every morning. Mrs. Gamage told me I could easily find someone in a tuk-tuk( 三轮摩的) to show me around town.
When I found Santha, a small, middle-aged man with a big smile, the next day, we quickly agreed on a price for a tour of the city: just $15. His tuk-tuk moved uphill slowly toward Sri Maha Bodhi Viharaya Buddhist Temple. The warm driver also took me to the Royal Botanic Gardens, a peaceful place away from the traffic and noise of the town.
The next morning, I got on a bright blue train to Ella. Ella Station isn’t far from the Sunnyside Holiday Bungalow, where I had booked a room for about $40 every night. The owners are nice and the hotel with gardens is beautiful.
My first morning in Ella, I visited the Nine Arch Bridge, a beautiful old railway bridge. In the afternoon, it started to rain heavily. I walked into a restaurant which sits atop a hill and provides a breathtaking view (风景) of the countryside. An hour later, the rain let up. And I set out to go for a long walk in Little Adam’s Peak. I loved the view of low-lying clouds resting gently on what seemed like an endless series of green hills.

“We give our girls the power ( 力 量 ) to believe in themselves, go to college, and become tomorrow’s leaders,” says Felicia Gibson Jaycox, the founder ( 创 立 者 ) and chief executive officer of The Power of You Teens (POYT). The organization is based in Harlem, a historic African-American neighborhood in New York City.
Founded in 2014, POYT offers educational chances and positive role models for teenage girls growing up in Harlem. These “Power Girls” take part in dance, summer camp, and STEAM education (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics), among other programs. The purpose, according to the group, is to empower
teenage girls to help them “dream big and to inspire them to achieve the most that they are capable of.”
POYT held its sixth yearly Empowerment Event in the fall of 2019 in New York City. The theme of “Girl Boss” encouraged girls to show their inner boss spirit. Miss Teen USA Kaliegh Garris was the keynote speaker.
Kaliegh said that she and other beauty competition winners are helping to reshape traditional images of beauty and showing that women of color are not just beautiful — they also are driven, wise women whom little girls can look up to.
I asked Ashley McFarlin Buie, POYT co-director, what inspired founder and CEO Felicia Gibson to start the organization. Gibson saw the plight that girls of color are in. For some historical reasons, many girls of color are growing up in terrible neighborhoods. They seldom see people like themselves showed positively in movies, books, TV shows, and other media.
“Powerful girls grow up to be dependable and confident women, preparing for their futures as creative leaders,” Buie said. POYT centers on saving the mind, body, and spirit of Black girls through love and support, she added.
What do the girls get out of the group “We offer chances,” Buie said, “to break barriers (屏障).”
28. What do we know about POYT
A. It is run by teenage girls.
B. It was started about 6 years ago.
C. It provides services all around America.
D. It was first started in African-American neighborhoods .
29. What did the 2019 Empowerment Event mainly want to do
A. Speak for women of color.
B. Change people’s traditional ideas of beauty.
C. Call on girls to be positive role models.
D. Encourage girls to go into business in the future.
30. What does the underlined word “plight” in Paragraph 5 probably mean
A. Sad feeling. B. Difficult task. C. Bad situation. D. Uncertain future.
31. What is the best title for this text
A. Dream big B. Power Girls C. Teenage Power D. Breaking barriers
D
It was about a year ago when a positive change in a community started.
I was in fifth grade, and at the time I wrote a paper about the migration of the monarch butterfly and received a perfect score. I was so happy; I called my grandmother, Nana, to tell her the exciting news. All of my talk about monarchs evoked memories from Nana’s childhood. “I remember when I was a girl out on the farm,” she said, “those black and orange butterflies were a common sight. But there do seem to be fewer monarchs fluttering (翩翩飞舞) around the neighborhood each summer. Perhaps we should try to find out where they’ve gone.”
Nana and I decided to investigate.
That weekend, Nana met me at the public library and we started our research. Our research produced plenty of information. The best information was this: It doesn’t take lots of money, equipment ( 设 备 ), or government organizations to save the monarch butterflies; it takes only a little bit of land, and dedicated (专心致志的) people to create what’s called a Monarch Waystation. When I read this, an idea came to mind. “What if we set up our own Monarch Waystation ” I suggested.
“We will need several people to help us!” she replied.
The next week, Nana presented the idea to her garden club; I talked to my friends and neighbors. Nana’s garden club decided to plant a butterfly garden next to the city park. The library put together a display of gardening and butterfly books. The editor of the local newspaper wrote an informative article on how to make our community monarch-friendly. As spring turned into summer, those volunteers also worked to weed (除杂草) and
care for the public gardens. We all waited and watched to see whether our plan would work — it did work! Over twenty black and orange butterflies were noticed visiting the Waystations. As summer progressed, the monarchs grew more plentiful.
It happened on a day when the sun was shining and the sky was a deep blue. As monarchs fluttered around us, people laughed and danced; Nana cried tears of happiness. It was truly a meaningful experience.
32. What does the underlined word “evoked" in Paragraph 2 probably mean
A. Made up. B. Took away.
C. Showed off. D. Brought back.
33. What made Nana want to carry out research on the monarch butterfly
A. The author’s personal wish. B. The beauty of the monarch butterfly.
C. The author’s good performance in school. D. The drop in numbers of the monarch butterfly.
34. What can we know about the Monarch Waystation
A. It should be built in a park.
B. It can be created and used easily.
C. It needs continued support from the government.
D. It is the best way to protect the monarch butterfly.
35. How did the author’s monarch project impact the community
A. It caused the community to miss the past.
B. It organized the community around a purpose.
D. It taught the community to use the public library.
D. It informed the community about gardening practices.

38 Besides, when you book your hotel, ask if they will send a driver to pick you up.
Talk to people
If you’re going to a touristy place like Thailand, there are lots of other people who are traveling alone. 39 They might also ask you to join them for dinner or a beer. That happens a lot.
Let someone know where you are
Your family and friends love you and probably worry about you every day, so text them and let them know what you are up to throughout your trip. 40 And in case something does happen, they’ll know where you are.
A. How do you stay safe

This year I spent a special Father’s Day with my father because my mother had set out on a business trip. Just that morning, my father coughed a lot and had a severe cold. Immediately getting him some medicine, I tried my best to reduce his stress and make him feel comfortable.
With my special care, my father recovered quickly. When my mother returned, my father, then as healthy as when my mother left, excitedly told her what had happened. For what I had done, my mother gave me a warm hug, saying “You’ve really grown up.”
Full of happiness, I was proud that I could do so much for my father.
