(W)Every day at least ten people call me on the phone, but they are not people I know. They are trying to sell me something, or ask me questions about my shopping habits. It takes a lot of time. I find it hard to end the phone calls. I do not want to put the phone down on any of them without saying goodbye. That would not be polite. But I can't get them to stop talking! The other day, one person started talking to me. He wanted to sell me a house. I told him that I was not interested, but he kept on talking. I put the phone on the table and went to have a shower. When I came back, he was still talking! I just said "thank you but no. Have a nice day" and put the phone down. I think I was polite.

I want to be a volunteer
Hello, everyone. My name is Zhang Hua. I want to be a volunteer. I'm glad to make a speech here. I think I have many strong qualities to be a volunteer. I have good manners. I always obey traffic rules and never litter everywhere. I always say “Hello” when I meet others.
I have a heart full of love. I often take part in charity activities and I am a member of the Helping Hand Club. Last month, I donated my books, clothes and food to those who are in need. Also, I gave my seat to the elder on the bus. What's more, I helped the workers clean the park at weekends. I’m smart, too. I can come up with many new ideas. I think I can lead my classmates into a whole new world.
I think it is meaningful to help others. I know being an excellent volunteer is not an easy job. Also，I believe it is necessary for volunteers to be patient enough. If I can be a volunteer, I will try my best to make a difference to people around me.

I was now in my twenty-seventh year on the island. One evening Friday went out to look for food. But soon he was back, and he looked very afraid.
"Master! Master!" he cried, "There's a great ship near the island, and men are coming to the shore in a boat!"
I jumped up and ran with him down to the shore. I saw that it was an English ship! But why was it here English ships never came this way. Perhaps they were pirates(海盗)!"Don't let them see you, Friday!" I called, "We'll hide in the trees and watch. "
There were eleven men in the boat, but three of them were prisoners(囚犯). Their arms were tied with rope, but their legs were free and they could walk. The other sailors pushed the three prisoners up the beach, laughing and shouting and hitting them. The three prisoners walked slowly along the beach and sat down under a tree, not far from us. They looked very unhappy.
Very quietly, I came up behind them through the trees, and called out to them in English.
"Don't be afraid, "I said. "I'm an Englishman. Perhaps I can help you. "
The three men turned and looked at me. They did not answer at once. They were too surprised.
Perhaps they thought I was a wild man myself, in my strange clothes made of animals' skins, and with my long hair and beard.
Then the oldest man spoke, "I am the captain of that ship, "he said, "and these two men are my first and second officers. Last night there was a mutiny (叛乱), and the seamen took the ship from me.
Now they're going to leave the three of us here, to die on this island. "
"Do these mutineers (叛军) have guns "
"Only two, "he answered, "and they've left those on the boat. "
"All right, "I said. "We’ll fight them. But if we get your ship back for you, you must take me back to England. "
Friday ran back to my house to get all the guns, and the captain and I made a plan.
53. How did Friday feel when he saw an English ship coming towards the island
A. Relaxed. B. Excited. C. Angry. D. Afraid.
54. What is the correct order of the following events
a. The three prisoners sat under a tree on the beach.
b. The writer and Friday saw a ship coming to their island.
c. The writer managed to talk with the three prisoners.
d. The mutineers took the ship from the three prisoners.
A. b-a-c-d B. b-c-a-d C. d-b-a-c D. d-a-b-c
55. Which of the following is true about the writer
A. He himself was a wild man indeed. B. He hoped to get away from the island.
C. He lived on the island alone for 27 years. D. He could fight the mutineers without guns.
56. Why did “I” help the capitain
A. Because he was caught by the mutineers.
B. Because the ship was taken by the mntineers.
C. Because a mutiny happened on the ship.
D. Because maybe it was a chance for me to leave the island.
D
A volunteer experience
It was March 2018. I was finishing high school. While I was looking forward to my college years, I also felt a strong desire to volunteer abroad. After weeks of serious consideration, I decided to have a gap year(间隔年).
I cannot tell you how many hours I spent trying to find the programme I was most interested in. I contacted many volunteer organizations. In the end, I signed up with " African Impact". I wanted to make an impact（影响）-no matter how small-on Africa and its people.
I took part in the Child Care Project. We worked in an orphanage (孤儿院) in Cape Town( 开普敦） and spent time with a group of orphans（孤儿） between the ages of 0 and 3. There was nothing as exciting as seeing a baby taking her first steps, hearing a two-year-old girl repeat all of the letters in the alphabet after I said them, seeing a little boy kick or catch balls of different sizes, and watching all of the kids carefully wash their hands as it became a habit. These were the skills that I watched the children develop during my time there. My heart was filled with pride.
I also took part in the Teaching Project and worked in a preschool. Teaching was more tiring. Some children were naughty. They didn't always listen to me. But it's hard to describe the joy I felt when the kids finally understood what I was trying to teach them.
Volunteering in Cape Town changed my life. It has changed who I am as a person. I cannot be more grateful for this amazing experience.
57. What organization did the author sign up with after lots of consideration
A. African Impact. B. Teaching Project.
C. Homeless Care Project. D. Volunteering in Cape Town.
58. What does Paragraph 3 mainly tell us
A. The people the author worked with in the orphanage.
B. The lessons the project provided for the children in Cape Town.
C. The volunteer experience the author had in the Child Care Project.
D. The reasons the author chose to spend time with some orphans.
59. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage
A. The author didn't think a lot before going to Africa.
B. The author didn't get on well with the students in the preschool.
C. The author was very satisfied with his or her teaching in the preschool.
D. The author looked forward to studying at a good college in Africa.
60. What does the author think of the volunteering experience
A. Exciting but boring. B. Tiring and useless.
C. Meaningful and amazing. D. Interesting but very hard

Yuan Longping passed away on May 22, 2021, at the age of 91.
Yuan was born in Beijing, 1930. He was a great scientist and known for developing the first hybrid rice varieties in the 1970s. Yuan graduated from the Southwest Agriculture Institute in 1953. Yuan was also a strict teacher. He refused to accept the student who didn’t want to work in the field. Yuan came up with an idea for hybridizing rice in 1960s. At that time, many people died because they didn’t have enough food. Yuan spent his most time on the research and development of hybrid rice. He cared a lot about the poor hungry people home and abroad.
Through years of hard work, Yuan succeeded. Yuan was called the “father of hybrid rice”. At present, about 50 percent of China’s total rice fields grow Yuan’s hybrid rice varieties. Yuan also shared his achievements with people all over the world. He had a great dream that everyone in the world, poor or rich, would never suffer(遭受) from hunger.
