四、阅读理解
Smile Train is a charity(慈善团体) that helps millions of children around the world, who suffer from a facial defect(缺陷). The defect happens when a baby's top lip(嘴唇) or mouth doesn't form properly before birth. Eating and drinking is very difficult for these babies. A simple operation which is often performed between the first nine and eighteen months of life can repair this condition. The charity provides free operations, which give these children a new smile, and with it, new hope and a new beginning.
Children with the defect need all the help. Although many sufferers are accepted by their families, sadly, others are not. In some countries, children with this defect are often abandoned at birth because their parents feel ashamed(羞耻的) of them or cannot afford the operations. The good news is that the operation is not difficult. It takes less than an hour and costs the family nothing. The charity raises money and finds the right medical volunteers to perform the operations.
A Smile Train doctor from the UK said, "Each child who has the operation is given a second chance at life. After years of staying at home, the children can finally go to school and be happy. Every year I perform hundreds of operations free of cost through Smile Train. Some of the stories I have heard are quite surprising. One newborn baby girl was found abandoned on a train. Luckily for her, she was found and adopted(收养) by a passenger. This lady then heard about Smile Train and brought the baby to our hospital. I did the operation and gave hope to the family. Experienced doctors like me share our skills with local doctors. In this way we make sure that these operations will always be available."
1.Smile Train is a charity which _________.
A. provides food and medical care for poor children
B. offers free medical help to children with the facial defect
C. gives children without parents new hope and a new beginning
2.The underlined word "abandoned" in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to _________.
A. given up B. called up C. brought up
3.Which of the sentences about the operation is TRUE
A. The earlier the operation is performed, the more difficulties children with the defect meet.
B. The operation is hard to perform and needs experienced doctors.
C. The operation costs the family nothing because Smile Train pays for the money.
4.It can be inferred (推断) from the passage that _________.
A. children with the facial defect are becoming more ashamed than before
B. more doctors are trained to help children with the facial defect
C. doctors in Smile Train are always well paid for doing the operations

答案：1-4 BACB
