This week on our national park journey, we visited a mountainous landscape (风景) on America's east coast. Within the park are rocky peaks (山峰), rolling green hills, and beautiful waterfalls. It is also home to hundreds of black bears.
Driving on top of the mountain
Shenandoah National Park is perhaps best known for the road that goes through it: Skyline Drive. Skyline Drive runs nearly 170 kilometers north to south. It is the only road in the park. There are more than 70 overlooks (瞭望台) along the way, where people can pull their car off the road. These overlooks provide visitors with beautiful views of the Shenandoah Valley.
Hiking Shenandoah
Shenandoah National Park has more than 800 kilometers of hiking trails (小路). They take visitors to rocky mountain peaks and famous waterfalls.
One of Shenandoah's famous hikes is called Old Rag. It is almost 15 kilometers long. To get to the top of Old Rag Mountain, hikers must climb up large rocks. It is a long and difficult hike but the views from the top surprise hikers from all across the country and the world.
Shenandoah's black bears
Visitors to Shenandoah National Park have a good chance of seeing a black bear. The park is home to between 400 and 600 black bears.
Denise Machado knows a lot about these black bears. In fact, her nickname is “the bear lady”. “Well, I am known is Shenandoah as the bear lady. I see a lot of bears every season. I never get tired of seeing them. They are all different and they are all special.”

Millions of children in India drop out of school every year although enrollment (招生) at schools in the country is rising.To help dropout students, voluntary centers are training some of these children to return to school.At these centers, children learn to read and write so they can study what they missed when they were out of school.
One student, 8 year old Muskan Khatoon, is enrolled at a center in a poor neighborhood in New Delhi.Before going to the center, she had moved to a village after her father had an accident which put him out of work in the city.She dropped out of the village school after struggling with a common problem in rural areas: poor teaching.Because Muskan fell behind, she could not get into a regular school when she returned to New Delhi.There are millions of children in India like her.
Thousands of rural people are flowing into cities in search of jobs.They struggle to register their children in schools.These families often come in the middle of the school year when school registration is closed.And they often do not have any proof (证明) of identification.Besides, many families do not understand the importance of education.They prefer their children to stay at home to do housework and take care of brothers and sisters as both parents work.
Motivating parents is important to keeping children in school.In the neighborhood in New Delhi, many children are registering in regular schools after a year of informal education.Now parents are more willing to send children to voluntary centers.Children who used to play in the street now go to government schools.They wear uniforms.They know how to write and how to talk.That has made parents happy.

Like many new graduates, I left university full of hope for the future but with no real idea of what I wanted to do.My degree, with honors, in English literature had not really prepared me for anything practical.I knew I wanted to make a difference in the world somehow, but I had no idea how to do that.That's when I learned about the Lighthouse Project.
I started my journey as a Lighthouse Project volunteer by reading as much as I could about the experiences of previous volunteers.I knew it would be a lot of hard work, and that I would be away from my family and friends for a very long time.In short, I did not take my decision to apply for the Lighthouse Project lightly.Neither did my family.
Eventually, however, I won the support of my family, and I sent in all the paperwork needed for application.After countless interviews and presentations, I managed to stand out among the candidates and survive the test alone.Several months later, I finally received a call asking me to report for duty.I would be going to a small village near Abuja, Nigeria.Where What Nigeria I had no idea.But I was about to find out.
After completing my training, I was sent to the village that was small and desperately in need of proper accommodation.Though the local villagers were poor, they offered their homes, hearts, and food as if I were their own family.I was asked to lead a small team of local people in building a new schoolhouse.For the next year or so, I taught in that same schoolhouse.But I sometimes think I learned more from my students than they did from me.
Sometime during that period, I realized that all those things that had seemed so strange or unusual to me no longer did, though I did not get anywhere with the local language, and I returned to the United States a different man.The Lighthouse Project had changed my life forever.

Ⅳ.阅读理解
Last night we had a call from a neighbor to say that there was a foreign car parked in the village and ask us whether it was someone heading to our project. We weren't expecting anyone, but my partner headed down to check if they were OK.
It was a single lady who said she was searching for somewhere but had decided to park overnight as visibility (能见度) was low. She didn't want any help, so my partner told her where to find us if there was a need and then came home.
So this morning I found a foreign car in the driveway and the lady wanted to use our toilet. I invited her in and continued to prepare my breakfast when she was busy. Knowing we were lacking local shops, I checked if she'd had breakfast. She said no, so I invited her to sit down, offering her porridge and tea, and it turned out she was heading to a project she'd heard about, somewhere about 60 km away. She'd been searching for about a week because she couldn't reach them by phone and had eventually been pointed in our direction by a bus driver who thought it might be us.
So it was actually us that she was looking for last night but she didn't realize it! It took me about 10 minutes on Facebook to provide her with a telephone number, map and grid coordinates (方格坐标) for the project she was originally (本来) looking for by asking people I knew in the area. I equipped her with a packet of foods and a new umbrella, my telephone number in case of further difficulties, and she was back on the road.

1．carried 从上文的Last week可知，本文讲述的是过去发生的事情。故此处需用carry的过去式carried。
2．moving feel sb.doing sth.为固定用法，意为“感到某人正在做某事”。
3．who/that 强调句式：It is/was＋被强调部分＋that ...，如果被强调部分是作主语且表示人的名词时，that可替换成who，此处the driver是被强调的部分。
4．where 分析句子成分可知，the front row是表地点的先行词，空处引导定语从句，且从句中缺少地点状语，故需用关系副词where来引导定语从句。
5．met 从空前的never可知，此处是半倒装句式，句子的时态为现在完成时，助动词have已提前，故此处应用过去分词。
6．be kept 分析句子成分可知，and连接两个并列动作，主语是This simple act，该主语与keep之间存在被动关系，且由空前的will可知此处需填be kept。
7．better 结合语境可知，作者从这位司机的举动中得出了感悟，要为顾客提供更好的服务。much修饰形容词或副词的比较级形式，well的比较级是better。
8．their 空后是名词visit，由此可知此处需用形容词性物主代词作定语，结合they可知需填their。
9．or/and 结合语境可知，此处表并列或选择关系。故填or或and。
10．to do decide to do sth.为固定搭配，意为“决定做某事”。PAGE

Soon, Clara began taking care of injured animals. 3 And, almost always, she made them better. When she was older, she became a nurse in the American Civil War and she helped save hundreds of soldiers. After the Civil War, Clara traveled to Europe to rest. But that did not last long. 4 But this time, she learned about an organization called the Red Cross who worked alongside her on the battlefield. Its mission (使命) was to help those who were in need.
5 Over several years, she asked 4 different presidents to bring the Red Cross to America. They all said no. But then, thanks to her persistence (坚持), one of the presidents changed his mind!
