Catalin Baciu from Romania wanted to make money in Germany.So, he and his wife, Oltita went to Bucharest, the capital city of Romania to get legal papers to move to Germany.However, when they arrived, they were surprised by what they saw.
“Hundreds of street children were living in a busy and dirty city of two and a half million people.Many of them were using drugs.They all seemed lost.Most of them were under ten years old.Oltita had tears in her eyes，” Catalin said.
Many of these streets children were orphans.They had grown up in the government orphanages, but had run away.They thought any place would be better than the orphanages.But the streets were cold and hard.The winters were freezing.The children had to sleep in warm sewers (下水道) under the ground.Many of the children even became involved with crime and violence.
The Bacius did not like the sight of so many pitiful children in Bucharest.They wanted to leave immediately and go to Germany.However, that night, Catalin and Oltita stayed with a friend in Bucharest.“The friend we were staying with was working with street children.I was deeply touched by what he and his fellows were trying to do ... they were sacrificing their jobs and lives to save street children，” Catalin said.
After that visit, the Bacius completely changed their life plan.Instead of moving to Germany, they began working with street children in Bucharest.They started by opening a home called House of Hope, which provided a warm and loving place for children who needed to get away from the streets.Many hospitals and business workers called House of Hope when they found troubled kids.Everyone knew the House of Hope would help.

Jiang Mengnan received the award of Person Touching China for 2021, chosen as one of the 10 models nationwide who spread positive energy and promote social integrity (诚信)．
Born in 1992 into an ethnic Yao family in Yizhang County, Hunan Province, Jiang's world has been silent since she was 6 months old, when medicine she was given irreparably (不可挽回地) damaged her hearing.
When she started to learn walking, her parents began teaching her to read lips. They also taught her vocalization by putting her hands on their throats, so she could feel the vibration (震动) of their vocal cords. It was a process that consumed (消耗) time and energy, but her parents never gave up and Jiang learned to speak.
When she was old enough, Jiang became a student of a standard primary school, not a special school, as was common for most children with disabilities. It was difficult at first. During lessons, teachers would often write on the blackboard with their back to the students, so Jiang missed much of the content. She had to copy down everything on the blackboard and study alone after class to keep up with her classmates.
Her perseverance made her a top student. In 2011, she achieved an impressive score on the national college entrance exam and was admitted to Jilin University in Changchun, Jilin Province. After graduating in 2015, she began pursuing an advanced degree at the university, studying computer-aided drug design. In 2018, she was accepted as a PhD candidate at Tsinghua University's School of Life Sciences and received her doctorate at the end of 2021.
“I'm always grateful for the respect I received from my parents, teachers and friends，” she said. “They never give me special attention for my imperfection, which means I've never seen myself as different from anyone else.”
In the future, she wants to continue scientific research in pharmacology (药理学) and contribute her values to solving problems of life and health.
语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了获得2021年感动中国人物江梦南的事迹。
5．What can we learn from the models according to Paragraph 1
A．Living with disability.
B．Staying positive.
C．Spreading touching stories.
D．Fighting for the reward.
√
解析：推理判断题。根据第一段中的“... 10 models nationwide who spread positive energy and promote social integrity.”可推知，我们能从模范身上学到保持积极的心态。
6．What happened to Jiang at the age of six months
A．Her hearing became irrecoverable.
B．She took some medicine by mistake.
C．Her parents decided to desert her.
D．She almost died of a disease.
√
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“... Jiang's world has been silent since she was 6 months old, when medicine she was given irreparably damaged her hearing”可知，江梦南在6个月大的时候，她吃的药物对她的听力造成了不可挽回的伤害。
7．Which of the following can best describe Jiang's education
A．Painful but satisfying.
B．Special but meaningless.
C．Challenging but successful.
D．Expensive but fruitful.
√
解析：推理判断题。根据第四段中的“It was difficult at first. During lessons ... keep up with her classmates.”可知，江梦南的教育初期遇到了很大的困难；根据第五段中的“Her perseverance made her a top student ... Jilin University in Changchun, Jilin Province.”以及下文中的内容可知，江梦南靠坚强的毅力考取吉林大学，2018年被清华大学录取为博士研究生并获得博士学位。由此推知，江梦南的教育是有挑战但成功的。
8．What would be the best title for this text
A．Models Touching the Whole Nation
B．Woman Suffering from Imperfection
C．Parents Encouraging Kids Against Disability
D．Woman Aiming for PhD Despite Hearing Loss
解析：标题归纳题。根据一段内容并结合全文可知，本文讲述的是一个听力受损但是仍立志成才的女性江梦南的事迹。故D项适合作文章标题。

A polyglot is someone who has a deep love for languages, and is able to speak, use, and understand several of them. 9
Actress Natalie Portman is one famous polyglot. She can speak five languages, including Spanish, English, Hebrew, French, and Japanese. Along with her passion for acting, Natalie also loves learning world languages and has a serious thirst for knowledge. 10
Another famous actress with a passion for knowledge is television and film star Mila Kunis. Mila was born in Ukraine and moved to the United States with her family when she was a child. So she can speak fluent Russian and English. Mila has also spoken about how difficult learning English was after the sudden move to the US, but you wouldn't notice by listening to her now. 11 Her Russian is still impeccable (无可挑剔) in Russian language interviews.
12 One famous polyglot is the ancient Egyptian ruler Cleopatra. The ruler of the ancient Ptolemaic Kingdom of Egypt was believed to speak at least nine languages. Her native language was Greek. She was believed to have learned Egyptian, Hebrew, and Troglodyte. She was also believed to have spoken the languages of the Ethiopians, Syrians, Armenians, Medes, and Parthians as well. 13 The famous Serbian-American engineer and inventor of the alternating-current electrical system was fluent in eight different languages, including Serbo-Croatian, English, French, Czech, German, Hungarian, Italian, and Latin.
A．Another historical polyglot is Nikola Tesla.
B．Polyglots are certainly rare and interesting people.
C．Many don't even know that she is from a different country.
D．However, there's a record-holder for most languages spoken.
E．She even has a Bachelor of the Arts degree in Psychology from Harvard.
F．If we dig a little deeper through history, there are many famous polyglots that few know about.
G．There are many famous polyglots known for other things besides speaking multiple languages.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了几位通晓多种语言的人，他们对语言有深厚的热爱，并因其他事项闻名。
9．解析：选G 上文提到：通晓多种语言的人对语言有着深厚的热爱，能够说、使用和理解其中的几种语言；下文介绍了一些例子。此处应进一步说明通晓多种语言的人还因其他事情闻名。故G项符合语境。
10．解析：选E 上文提到：除了对表演的热情，娜塔莉还喜欢学习世界语言，对知识有着强烈的渴望。E项“她甚至拥有哈佛大学心理学学士学位”说明她渴望知识的结果，符合语境。
11．解析：选C 上文提到：米拉谈到了在突然搬到美国后学习英语有多么困难，但你现在听她说话不会注意到。C项“许多人甚至不知道她来自另一个国家”进一步说明米拉的英语说得好，符合语境。
12．解析：选F 上文介绍了一些有名的通晓多种语言的人。下文提到：古埃及统治者克利奥帕特拉就是一位著名的通晓多种语言的人。这说明历史上也有通晓多种语言的人。故F项“如果我们对历史进行更深入的挖掘，就会发现有许多几乎不为人所知的通晓多种语言的人”符合语境。
13．解析：选A 下文提到：这位著名的塞尔维亚裔美国工程师和交流电气系统的发明者精通八种不同的语言。此处举例说明历史上另一位通晓多种语言的人，应介绍他的名字。故A项“另一个历史上通晓多种语言的人是尼古拉·特斯拉”符合语境。UNIT 6 课时检测(九) Reading Club (自修课)

After graduating in 2015, she began pursuing an advanced degree at the university, studying computer aided drug design. In 2018, she was accepted as a PhD candidate at Tsinghua University's School of Life Sciences and received her doctorate at the end of 2021.
“I'm always grateful for the respect I received from my parents, teachers and friends，” she said. “They never give me special attention for my imperfection, which means I've never seen myself as different from anyone else.”
