“Make-A-Wish” is one of the world’s most well-known charities(慈善机构).It makes wishes come true for children who have serious illnesses.It gives them hope and joy and helps them forget about their health problems and have fun.
It all started in 1980 in Phoenix,Arizona.Christopher was a 7-year-old boy and he was very sick.He always dreamed of becoming a police officer.Tommy Austin and Ron Cox,two police officers,made his wish come true.They gave Christopher a tour of the city in a police helicopter(直升机) and made a real police uniform for him.
There are four kinds of wishes children usually have:
I wish to go.Children usually want to travel or go to a concert,a game or a park.
I wish to meet.Children sometimes want to meet their favorite actors,singers or players.
I wish to be.Some children wish to become actors,singers or police officers.
I wish to have.They often want to have a computer,a game,a bike or many other things.
Let’s hope more wishes will come true in the future.People who work in the charity always try for the best.Almost 25,000 volunteers help,work or give money.Will you be one of them?
( B )24.What did the two police officers do for Christopher?

( C )27.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.Sick children just wish to get well.
B.Christopher and Tommy are two officers.
C.“Make-A-Wish” has a history of over 40 years.
C
According to a research, more than 130 billion pounds of uneaten food go to waste in Laura’s country each year.That is about 30% of the yearly food supply.It is a sad fact, especially when you consider how many families and homeless people are in hunger.
When Laura saw her school dining hall throw away food that was not eaten at all every day, she came up with an idea.She started a project to help her school dining hall to give away uneaten food to homeless shelters in her community.In the past three years, the same project has spread to other schools and some fast food restaurants throughout the city.The project is called Feed & Find, and has already fed thousands of people in her city.
How does it work? Through an App, Feed & Find matches local homeless shelters with school dining halls and restaurants that have uneaten food to provide.When dining halls or restaurants have uneaten food left, they can use the App to share the information about the food.A truck driver working for the project is then sent to pick it up and take it to a shelter.
Pretty cool, right? It’s not surprising that people in other cities have got in touch with Laura, hoping that she could help develop similar projects for their communities.
Some people, however, have concerns about the safety of the uneaten food.They think such food may not be clean enough.Still, this project is a clever way to help solve the problem of food waste and it helps those in need.
( B )28.What can we know from the numbers in Paragraph 1?
A.Some people are poor.
B.Food waste is serious.
C.The population is large.
( A )29.Where did Laura’s project first get food?
A.From her school dining hall.
B.From her family.
C.From a fast food restaurant.
( C )30.What do people in other cities hope Laura to do?
A.To find a truck driver.
B.To visit their communities.
C.To help develop projects like hers.
( C )31.What does the underlined word “concerns” mean in the last paragraph?
A.Ways. B.Secrets. C.Worries.
第二节(共4小题;每小题2分,满分8分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。
A.You could see love when you looked in their eyes.
B.Volunteering means choosing to work without being paid.
C.It’s a chance for poor children to get better care and support.
D.For young adults,valuable lessons may also be learned through volunteering.
E.Volunteers don’t get paid,not because they’re worthless,but because they’re priceless.
Winston Churchill once said,“We make a living by what we get,but we make a life by what we give.” These are certainly words that millions of volunteers around the world could agree with.
In the US,April is National Volunteer Month,to praise and thank volunteers who lend their time,talent,and support to what they care about.
32. B People who volunteer spend their time doing things they feel strongly about.For example,animal lovers may volunteer at an animal center to help improve the treatment of animals.
Volunteering allows volunteers to meet new people,try out new skills and explore career choices.33. D Take Andrew Makhoul,a student at the University of Pennsylvania,as an example.Andrew didn’t spend his last spring break relaxing.Instead,the 19-year-old boy decided to do something for people who were less lucky than himself.He traveled to an orphanage(孤儿院) in Guatemala in Central America.It is in one of the poorest parts of the country.And it depends on volunteers to stay open.
Andrew doesn’t speak much Spanish,but he found communication wasn’t a problem.“You communicated with love,” according to an article on his university’s website.And what he gave out,he got back.“34. A ” Andrew’s first time as a volunteer only lasted a week,but by the end of that week,he knew he’d be back soon—because he saw love and hope.
The US author Sherry Anderson once wrote, “35. E ” And this is perhaps why volunteers all around the world keep doing what they do-their work is “priceless”.
