Whatever you’ve got planned this summer — time at the beach, traveling to exotic destinations, or barbecuing in your backyard — you need a good book to keep you company. Luckily, our “GMA” book editor has picked an exciting list of must-reads to keep the pages turning through the summer.
Trust Exercise by Susan Choi
What if your version of the story is the wrong one That’s what “Trust Exercise” asks. What starts as a love story between two teens at an art school with a charming teacher becomes an investigation into the ways teenagers protect themselves. As the perspective of the book shifts, the truth breaks. Susan Choi keeps you on your toes until the very last sentence.
Rules for Visiting by Jessica Francis Kane
This beautiful novel tackles loneliness in the digital age and the lost art of visiting. Shy May is given some unexpected time off as a university gardener and is inspired to reconnect with four once-close friends. She chooses to bypass her friends’ online lives to instead meet them IRL (in real life). This novel gives a whole new meaning to Instagram vs reality.
Mrs Everything by Jennifer Weiner

City of Girls by Elizabeth Gilbert
From the No. 1 New York Times’ best-selling author of “Eat Pray Love” comes a delicious love story about showgirls in 1940s New York City. Gilbert brings charm, adventure and the idea that you don’t have to be a good girl to be a good person.

On any given day, you can find most 10-year-old boys throwing a ball around outside, riding bikes or playing video games. But Braden Baker is different.
Braden is a hearing damaged 5th-grader and has to wear hearing aids. Unluckily, Braden’s dog Chewy found his hearing aids on the floor and destroyed them — not once but twice and they had to be replaced. But at $3,500 to $6,000 a pair, Braden’s carelessness was costly.
Braden’s mother Ashley sat Braden down and had a long talk about taking better care of his hearing aids, explaining how much they cost. “I told him that he was lucky to get another pair and that some people couldn’t afford a new pair,” Ashley said.
Those words stuck in Braden’s mind, who realized not every child who needed hearing aids could afford them. Recently the 10-year-old boy decided to start a GoFundMe page to raise money for those who aren’t so lucky.
Braden made a video to explain why he wanted to raise money. Ashley said, “We weren’t sure how it would turn out. He began with a goal of $1,000. We woke up the next morning and found it had raised $400.”
This encouraged him to start making more videos. Fast-forward a few months and Braden’s GoFundMe page has raised over $15,000, which Braden donated to the Oticon Hearing Foundation. That money will be used to help other families buy hearing aids for their children.
The project has not only taught Braden the value of money, but according to his mom, “he’s learned that if you put a small idea into action, amazing things can happen.”
Braden’s advice to those looking for ways to give back to others is “Don’t give up! Any small idea can get really big.”
4. Why did Braden have to change his hearing aids
A. He lost his old hearing aids carelessly.
B. He wanted a better pair of hearing aids.
C. His hearing problem became more serious.
D. His old hearing aids got destroyed by his dog.
5. What caused Braden to start the GoFundMe page
A. Ashley’s remark on hearing aids.
B. Ashley’s encouragement to him.
C. Braden’s desire to buy a new pair of hearing aids.
D. Braden’s desire to help the poor hearing-impaired kids.
6. How did Braden and his mother feel when the page was started
A. Uncertain. B. Satisfied.
C. Hopeful. D. Worried.
7. What has Braden learned from working on the project
A. Videoing is a good way to collect money.
B. A small idea may make a big difference.
C. It’s important to dream big and hold on to it.
D. One should always make good use of his money.
C
Imagine you found a wallet containing a stranger’s contact details but no cash. Would you return it to its owner Now imagine the same wallet contained a few banknotes. Would that change your response Does it depend on the amount of money And how do you think other people would react
Honesty makes the world go round. Without people trusting in one another, society would fall apart. Honesty is therefore studied academically. Most work in the area, though, takes place under controlled conditions in labs, often featuring (以……为特点) well-off and well-educated Westerners as its subjects. By contrast, Alain Cohn of the University of Michigan and his colleagues have taken such behavioral economics around the world, covering 40 countries, 355 cities and more than 17,000 people.
As the team reported this week in Science, Dr Cohn’s research assistants entered public buildings. They handed in a wallet to the receptionist, saying they had found it on the street outside. Each wallet contained contact details. Importantly, some wallets also included $13.45, while others not. Then, the team simply waited to see who would return the wallet.
In 38 of the 40 countries, the wallets with money were returned more often than those without (51% vs 40%). In addition, wallets containing a larger sum of money ( $94.15) were even more likely (by about another 10%) to be returned than those with less.
With greater temptation (诱惑), then, comes greater honesty — at least when it comes to lost wallets. Interestingly, though, such honesty is not reflected in people’s expectations of others. When surveyed, most of 299 volunteers predicted that the more money in a wallet, the less likely it would be returned.
A certain doubt about the motives of others is probably good for survival. But the warm inner thought of “doing the right thing” is also a powerful motivation. How this altruism developed is much debated — particularly when it extends, as in Dr Cohn’s experiments, to strangers whom the altruist has no expectation of ever meeting. Be that as it may, as this study shows, such altruism is real and universal.
8. How is Alain Cohn’s research different from the previous
A. It was carried out in controlled situations.
B. More scientists participated in the research.
C. It covered varied subjects and backgrounds.
D. It took no account of well-educated Westerners.
9. What can we learn from the research
A. Rate of honesty varies among countries.
B. People prefer returning wallets without money.
C. The less money in a wallet, the higher rate of returning.
D. Wallets with more money are more likely to be given back.
10. What can be inferred from paragraph 5
A. People are more honest than we expect.
B. People tend to expect honesty from others.
C. More money always means greater honesty.
D. Most people lose honesty facing great temptation.
11. What does the underlined word “altruism” in the last paragraph mean
A. Doubt of others’ motivations.
B. Understanding of people’s doubt.
C. The motivation for survival.
D. Concern for others’ needs.
D
You may not have heard of Ashoka, but for the past 27 years, this association, founded by Bill Drayton, has fought poverty and sickness, promoted education and encouraged small businesses. To support these worthy causes, Ashoka provides money for the world’s most promising “changemakers” seeking to solve urgent problems and would like to create a world in which every citizen is a changemaker.
Drayton believes that anyone can become an agent for change. The important thing is to simply give yourself permission. If you see a problem that you care about, you can help solve it. The young in particular are willing to accept this concept because at heart every child wants to grow into a happy, healthy, and useful adult. In fact, it is many young people’s ambition to set up programmes or businesses that improve social conditions. An excellent example is an Ashoka project started in 1995 in Dhaka, which handled the rubbish problem facing the city, helped local farmers and provided an income for poor people there.
When Masqsood and Iftekhar began to study the problem of all the uncollected rubbish that lay in Dhaka’s streets, attracting rats and disease, they discovered that 80% of it was organic waste. So they educated the poor people in the city to compost (把……制成堆肥) this waste. They knew that they would have a market for the end product because local farmers were struggling with chemical fertilizers (化肥) which were expensive and had reduced the natural minerals in the soil over the years. At first, they were refused, but once they were able to persuade them that there was money to be made, the project took off. In 2009 sales were $14,000.
Drayton is optimistic that in ten years Ashoka will be making really serious, practical progress in bringing about social change by changing the way we look at economic development.
12. What should he do if someone wants to become a changemaker
A. Consider Drayton’s concept.
B. Get permission from Ashoka.
C. Try to improve social conditions.
D. Be a young, happy and healthy adult.
13. What does the underlined word “them” in paragraph 3 refer to
A. The poor people in Dhaka.
B. Masqsood and Iftekhar.
C. Drayton and his team.
D. The local farmers.
14. What is the author’s attitude towards Ashoka’s programme
A. Neutral. B. Critical.
C. Skeptical. D. Positive.
15. Which of the following could be the best title for the text
A. Rubbish Problems. B. Businessmen.
C. Social Conditions. D. Changemakers.

Florence Nightingale was named after her birthplace, Florence, Italy. When she was almost a year old, she returned with her family to England.
Florence often helped her mother deliver food to the poor and sick. 1 Her family was shocked because nursing was not a respected profession.
But Florence was determined. She studied books on medicine. Later, she visited hospitals in France, Germany and Ireland and learned everything she could. 2
In 1854, Britain was at war with Russia. Florence went to the British hospital in Scutari (now sküdar in Istanbul) and she was shocked. The hospital left men lying on the floor, and rats were running everywhere. 3 Many soldiers died before receiving help.
The doctors wouldn’t listen to Florence because they didn’t like the idea of women in army hospitals — until one day 500 unexpected casualties (伤亡者) arrived. 4 Florence made changes, making sure the men were washed and their injuries were cared for. Every night she would check the patients with her lamp.
When she returned home after the war, a fund had been set up in her honor. Many of the soldiers she had nursed had made contributions. Now she could set up the Nightingale Training School in London.
After years of hard work, Florence Nightingale saw cleaner and more cheerful hospitals.
5 All of this was because of the “lady with the lamp”.
A. Nursing became an honored profession.
B. There was no running water and no heat.
C. She knew she had much to learn about nursing.
D. Florence saw the soldiers’ health had improved.
E. As she grew older, she decided to become a nurse.
F. They soon realized that Florence knew what she was doing.
G. Upon returning home, she was an expert on hospital management.

12. A 根据“It wasn’t a large amount, only 5 pounds, but”可知,该句话前后为转折关系。作者是想表达,虽然那个人帮助作者支付的不是个大数目,但是对作者来说意义非常大。make a difference“有作用/关系/影响”;make a impression“留下好印象”;make a decision“做决定”;make a mistake“犯错误”。故选A。
13. C 根据语境可知,这里是指帮助在困难中的人。in relief“如释重负”;in debt“欠债”;in need“在困难中”;in danger“在危险中”。故选C。
14. B 根据语境可知,那个人帮作者付款,从而避免了作者回家拿钱再回来,然后再回家。ban sb. from doing sth.“禁止某人做某事”;save sb. from doing sth.“使某人避免做某事”;protect sb. from doing sth.“使某人免受某伤害”;keep sb. from doing sth.“阻止某人做某事”。故选B。
15. C 根据语境可知,作者最后号召大家享受生活中的礼物,并分享这些礼物。第一段中的“I wanted to share”也是提示。accept“接受”;balance“权衡”;share“分享”;seek“寻求”。故选C。
本文是一篇新闻报道。摄影师托尼·泰勒正要离开足球场时心脏病发作,在场的志愿者们对他进行了急救,并叫了救护车,从而挽救了他的生命。托尼很感激志愿者们救了他一命。
1. Thankfully 考查词性转换。分析句子结构可知,空处作状语修饰整个句子,所以用thankful的副词形式。故填Thankfully。
2. on 考查介词。根据语境可知,我走向我的汽车的时候,正在给妻子打电话。on the phone为固定用法,表示“打电话”。故填on。
3. realized 考查动词的时态。根据语境可知,这里是Tony Taylor在回忆过去发生的事情,所以用一般过去时。故填realized。
4. so 考查连词。根据语境可知,前面提到的是原因“我醒来躺在地板上,以为自己做了一个非常生动的梦”,下文表示的是结果“所以我以为我睡着了”。故填so。
5. me 考查代词。分析句子结构可知,空处作put的宾语,因此应用I的宾格形式。故填me。
6. fall 考查非谓语动词。此处为“see sb. do sth.”结构,意为“看见某人做了某事(全过程)”。该处表示“他们(两位志愿者)看到Tony倒下了”。故填fall。
7. equipment 考查词性转换。根据前面的介词for可知,空处应填equip的名词形式。故填equipment。
8. was sent 考查动词的时态和语态。分析句子结构可知,send和主语he为动宾关系,所以用被动语态,且该句描述的是过去发生的事情,所以应用一般过去时态。故填was sent。
9. heroes 考查名词的复数。根据前面的The guys可知,空处应用复数形式,指的是这两个人都是英雄。故填heroes。
10. a 考查冠词。句意:知道没有他们我就不会在这里是一种奇怪的感觉。根据句意可知,这里泛指一种感觉,所以应用不定冠词;另外,strange是以辅音音素开头的单词。故填a。
八、
Dear Sir,
I’m Li Hua. I am eager to be a volunteer for the China-UK cultural exchanges.
In my opinion, being a volunteer is a way to spread love and strengthen the relationship between the two nations. Meanwhile, it can bring out the best in me by helping foreign friends, making myself a better person.
With a good command of English and great patience, I will be a good guide for foreign friends. Besides, I’ve worked as a volunteer guide before, so I know what to expect and how to deal with possible problems.
Hope my application will meet with your approval.
Yours,
Li Hua
