[素能提升练]
Ⅰ.阅读理解(每小题2.5分,共10分)
In movies and books,people often describe a decisive moment when they figure out who they are.However,I never thought it actually happened in real life.I never expected to have a “moment” of my own.When it arrived,mine was much more powerful than I could have ever imagined.
During the spring of my junior year,my class watched a documentary called The Invisible Children.It was about three college students who take a trip to Africa and document their experience.At first the film was slightly humorous.However,once the group arrived in northern Uganda,the mood changed.They learned what the consequences of a 23-year war had been for thousands of children.Some had lost family and friends,and others were caught by the opposing force and became child soldiers.
Before long,I was sobbing.I couldn’t believe these things were happening,yet at the same time I knew they were.I just hadn’t been paying attention,for in the past 17 years,I was blessedly protected.When the movie ended,I couldn’t get it out of my head.For the next week,I was not myself.Every bite of food I took I thought of Grace,the 15-year-old who had little to eat.When I went to bed,I pictured Sunday,the 14-year-old boy sleeping on a straw mat on the ground in a camp.My whole world shifted.
Since that day,I haven’t been able to picture my future in a way that doesn’t involve going to Africa and doing what I can to help.Ultimately,this is why I decided to major in engineering.With an engineering degree,my potential for change will be limitless.I will build wells and schools,and design irrigation systems.Engineering is tough,but I know—in what Yeats called “my deep heart’s call”—that this is what I’m supposed to do with my life.

Ⅰ.阅读理解(每小题2.5分,共10分)
In movies and books,people often describe a decisive moment when they figure out who they are.However,I never thought it actually happened in real life.I never expected to have a “moment” of my own.When it arrived,mine was much more powerful than I could have ever imagined.
During the spring of my junior year,my class watched a documentary called The Invisible Children.It was about three college students who take a trip to Africa and document their experience.At first the film was slightly humorous.However,once the group arrived in northern Uganda,the mood changed.They learned what the consequences of a 23-year war had been for thousands of children. Some had lost family and friends,and others were caught by the opposing force and became child soldiers.
Before long,I was sobbing.I couldn’t believe these things were happening,yet at the same time I knew they were.I just hadn’t been paying attention,for in the past 17 years,I was blessedly protected. When the movie ended,I couldn’t get it out of my head.For the next week,I was not myself.Every bite of food I took I thought of Grace,the 15-year-old who had little to eat.When I went to bed,I pictured Sunday,the 14-year-old boy sleeping on a straw mat on the ground in a camp.My whole world shifted.
Since that day,I haven’t been able to picture my future in a way that doesn’t involve going to Africa and doing what I can to help.Ultimately,this is why I decided to major in engineering.With an engineering degree,my potential for change will be limitless.I will build wells and schools,and design irrigation systems.Engineering is tough,but I know—in what Yeats called “my deep heart’s call”—that this is what I’m supposed to do with my life.
