Every New Year, many people make promises to themselves, only to see them fall by the wayside within a few months, weeks, or even days. However, 26-year-old Luke Cameron is not among those people. After losing a close friend known for her generosity (慷慨) and died of cancer in 2013, the young man decided to do at least one good deed (好事) every day for 365 days and he has not missed one yet.
Cameron performed his first good deed on January 1st, 2014, with the simple act of greeting a waitress at a cafe he visited. The next day he bought food and drinks for some homeless people. Cameron’s good small deeds have been recorded in an online diary, like taking out the garbage for an elderly neighbor or spending a few hours helping a disabled lady pick out a dress for a party. What’s more, the young man has also spent close to 4,000 of his own money, buying gifts for children in need.
Cameron has created a series of some cards, which he has called “Cards for Kindness”. Each card suggests a simple act of kindness — things like giving a stranger a hug or making peace with an enemy, which is to encourage others to perform good deeds.
Cameron’s generosity has not gone unnoticed. To reward the young man as he nears the end of his journey, pizza chain Domino’s recently awarded him a year’s supply of free pizza. Not surprisingly, the big-hearted young man has decided to use the gift to hold special pizza days for charity. His kind deeds have also won him a competition for the job of “National Philanthropy (慈善事业) Manager”.
4. What made Cameron decide to do good deeds every day
A. The need of a competition. B. The requirement of his job.
C. The influence of his families. D. The death of a close friend.
5. What is the second paragraph mainly about
A. The influence of simple acts of kindness. B. The good things that Cameron has done.
C. The importance of having close friends. D. The prizes that Cameron has received.
6. Why did Cameron create “Cards for Kindness”
A. To record his good deeds. B. To make peace with an enemy.
C. To raise money for some charities. D. To encourage people to show kindness.
7. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. No Pains, No Gains B. The Power of Dreams
C. A Good Deed Every Day D. The Best Man in Britain
C
Think about the last time you did something that you found difficult. Was it working out a puzzle or working hard on your math homework
Can you remember the expression you had on your face Most people will press their lips together and frown (皱眉) when they are doing something they find difficult. This is normally seen as a sign of effort. Now we’ve found that it can also say more than that.
A recent study at the University of Portsmouth in England suggests that the human expression of effort and frustration is our way of asking others for help.
Scientists at the university gave children and chimpanzees (黑猩猩) an impossible puzzle to work out. When the children couldn’t work out the puzzle, their faces expressed determination and effort. The chimpanzees’ did not.
Humans and chimpanzees have many facial expressions that share the same meaning. A human smile is the same as a chimpanzee showing its teeth in happiness.
Scientists believe that over time, humans have evolved to use this facial expression to ask for help. We have also learned to respond to it by offering help.
According to Dr. Albert Mehrabian, a well-known professor of psychology at the University of California, Los Angeles, only 7% of human communication happens through words and 55% is through body language. Therefore, understanding expressions is second nature to human beings.
With this in mind, next time you see a person with a frustrated expression, listen to your heart and stop to lend them a hand.
8. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to
A. Frowning. B. The expression.
C. Something difficult. D. A sign of effort.
9. According to the recent study, people’s expression of effort or frustration tells others that ________.
A. they need help B. they can do things themselves
C. they will give up D. they want to be alone
10. What can we learn from the study
A. Scientists gave the chimpanzees an easy puzzle.
B. The chimpanzees smiled as they worked out the puzzle.
C. The chimpanzees’ face didn’t show determination or effort.
D. The chimpanzees used other expressions to ask for help.
11. Which of the following may Dr. Albert Mehrabian agree with
A. Body language is very important in human communication.
B. People don’t like to use words to communicate.
C. Human expressions are not a kind of body language.
D. Words can’t help much in communication.
D
Begun 30 years ago, the Kubuqi desert-greening project has succeeded in not only controlling the fast growth of the seventh-largest desert in China, about the size of Kuwait, but also turning about 6,000 square kilometers of the desert green. The greening efforts have also controlled desertification (沙漠化) in the rest of the area.
The success of the project, which has been praised by the UN Environment Programme as an “eco-pioneer”, sets an example for successful desertification control and ecosystem improvement based on effective government policies, supported by investment (投资) in the eco-industry and combined with the efforts of local farmers. These three aspects are key to the success of the “Kubuqi model”.
Elion, a private ecology and investment company, has invested about 38 billion yuan ($5.82 billion) in the Kubuqi desert-greening project since 1988 helping to lift about 102,000 local farmers out of poverty. For example, the locals grow a drought-tolerant (耐旱) plant, Chinese licorice (甘草), which is the most used herb in traditional Chinese medicine. The plant helps enrich the desert soil. Besides, Cistanche, another type of drought-tolerant herb, was introduced after the successful planting of licorice. Under the company’s guidance and with the local government’s support, the local people benefit from the “environmental wealth”.
More companies should be encouraged to apply the “Kubuqi model” in other desert control projects in Inner Mongolia and neighboring Gansu province, where the climate conditions are similar but not quite the same, so as to further gain experience and enrich the model in practice. Showing it can be successfully applied in other areas will help promote the model worldwide.
12. What do we know about the Kubuqi greening project
A. It increases the areas of desert. B. It has turned all of the desert green.
C. It has achieved satisfying results. D. It is applied all over the world.
13. Which is NOT the reason for the success of the “Kubuqi model”
A. Efforts of local farmers
B. Government policies’support
C. Investment in the eco-industry
D. Help from the UN Environment Programme
14. How does the author develop paragraph 3
A. By following the time order B. By giving examples
C. By giving a definition (定义) D. By making comparisons
15. What is the author’s attitude towards the greening project
A. Negative B. Doubtful C. Supportive D. Indifferent
