【文章大意】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Mr Tay和他的团队如何通过Willing Hearts项目为有需要的人提供食物,以及这个项目的起源、发展和对志愿者的影响。
1.B 词义猜测题。根据画线单词上文“During one of these visits, his wife noticed that the elderly folk did not take the vegetables. Asked why, one replied that she could not cook, so she only ate the rice delivered to her. Mrs Tay then offered to cook for her…”可知,这顿饭导致了Willing Hearts的诞生。故画线词与B选项意思相近。故选B。
2.A 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Through Willing Hearts, Mr Tay hopes to make ‘the country’s backyard’ known to the younger generation, to allow them to see and experience first-hand what goes on behind closed doors.”可知,Tay先生希望让年青一代了解“国家的后院”,让他们亲眼看到并体验幕后发生的事情。这里的the country’s backyard和behind closed doors都暗示了穷人的真实生活或贫困地区的真实状况。故选A。
3.D 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Every morning at 5 am when most people are asleep, a figure would be busy in the kitchen, cooking meals until the rest of the volunteers arrive. Day in and day out, Mr Tay and his team prepare, cook, pack and deliver the food to various parts of the island.”可知,Tay先生每天清晨5点就开始在厨房里忙碌,日复一日地准备、烹饪、打包和运送食物,这表明他是一个非常勤奋的人。再根据文章最后一段“As a non-profit organization, Willing Hearts depends heavily on donations and food collections. However, this does not trouble Mr Tay. He believes that you have to let things flow in gradually, and not be stopped by concerns which create an unnecessary amount of stress.”可知,尽管Willing Hearts是一个非营利组织,严重依赖捐款和食物捐赠,但Tay先生并没有因此感到困扰,而是相信事情需要循序渐进地发展,并不被不必要的担忧所困扰,这表明他是一个积极的人。故选D。
4.C 主旨大意题。根据文章内容可知,文章主要讲述了Tay先生和他的团队通过Willing Hearts项目为有需要的人提供食物,并强调了志愿者在该项目中的重要性。文章通过描述这个项目的起源、发展和对志愿者的影响,展示了Willing Hearts的积极贡献。因此,C选项“Willing Hearts lending a hand”(Willing Hearts伸出援助之手)最适合作为本文的标题。故选C。
B
【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项旨在减少孤独、改善老年人的健康状况的项目。
5.D 细节理解题。根据第二段“The project was dreamed up by a local charity to reduce loneliness and improve elderly people’s well-being.”可知,这个项目的目的是减少孤独和提高老年人的幸福感。故选D项。
6.B 推理判断题。根据第五段“It’s good to have a different focus. People have been bringing their children in to see the hens and residents come and sit outside to watch them. I’m enjoying the creative activities, and it feels great to have done something useful.”可知,Ruth Xavier很享受做这些事,她觉得自己在做有用的事,这能够给她带来良好的感觉,由此可推知,通过该项目她获得了一种成就感。故选B项。
7.C 词义猜测题。根据倒数第二段“Wendy Wilson, the extra care manager at 60 Penfold Street, one of the first to embark on the project, said:‘Residents really welcome the idea of the project and the creative sessions. We are looking forward to the benefits and fun the project can bring to people here.’”可知,Wendy Wilson是开始做这个项目的人之一,由此可推知,画线处意为“开始着手某事”,与C项begin (开始)含义相近。故选C项。
8.A 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Residents really welcome the idea of the project and the creative sessions. We are looking forward to the benefits and fun the project can bring to people here.”以及最后一段“We are happy to be taking part in the project. It will really help connect our residents through a shared interest and creative activities.”可知,该项目得到了居民们的认可,大家很欢迎这个项目,而且这个项目将会带来一些好处,由此可推知,这个项目的反响很好,很受欢迎。故选A项。

Every morning at 5 am when most people are asleep, a figure would be busy in the kitchen, cooking meals until the rest of the volunteers arrive. Day in and day out, Mr Tay and his team prepare, cook, pack and deliver the food to various parts of the island.
His journey started when one of his neighbours, Lisa, asked him to collect vegetables and give them away at Bukit Ho Swee, a poor neighbourhood, and thus, he continued to do so for a period of time. During one of these visits, his wife noticed that the elderly folk did not take the vegetables. Asked why, one replied that she could not cook, so she only ate the rice delivered to her. Mrs Tay then offered to cook for her, and it was that single meal that spurred Willing Hearts, which has served about 650,000 meals ever since.
The soup kitchen sees many volunteers, some of whom are new, while others have been around since the organization’s early days. They learn how to cook, interact with people from all walks of life, pick up different languages, and gain greater knowledge about social issues, and most importantly, they will form a strong tie with one another. Through Willing Hearts, Mr Tay hopes to make “the country’s backyard” known to the younger generation, to allow them to see and experience first-hand what goes on behind closed doors.
As a non-profit organization, Willing Hearts depends heavily on donations and food collections. However, this does not trouble Mr Tay. He believes that you have to let things flow in gradually, and not be stopped by concerns which create an unnecessary amount of stress. He calls the volunteers of Willing Hearts the organization’s eyes and ears, as they are always on the lookout for the poor to lend a hand.

A.Stood for. B.Led to.

The elderly residents (居民) in care homes in London are being given hens to look after to stop them feeling lonely.
The project was dreamed up by a local charity to reduce loneliness and improve elderly people’s well-being. It is also being used to help patients suffering dementia, a serious illness of the mind. Staff in care homes have reported a reduction in the use of medicine where hens are in use.
Among those taking part in the project is 80-year-old Ruth Xavier. She said: “I used to keep hens when I was younger and had to prepare their breakfast each morning before I went to school.”
“I like the project a lot. I am down there in my wheelchair in the morning letting the hens out and down there again at night to see they’ve gone to bed.”
“It’s good to have a different focus. People have been bringing their children in to see the hens and residents come and sit outside to watch them. I’m enjoying the creative activities, and it feels great to have done something useful.”
There are now 700 elderly people looking after hens in 20 care homes in the North East, and the charity has been given financial support to roll it out countrywide.
Wendy Wilson, the extra care manager at 60 Penfold Street, one of the first to embark on the project, said: “Residents really welcome the idea of the project and the creative sessions. We are looking forward to the benefits and fun the project can bring to people here.”
Lynn Lewis, director of Notting Hill Pathways, said: “We are happy to be taking part in the project. It will really help connect our residents through a shared interest and creative activities.”
( )5.What is the purpose of the project
A.To ensure harmony in care homes.
B.To provide part-time jobs for the aged.
C.To raise money for medical research.
D.To promote the elderly people’s welfare.
( )6.How has the project affected Ruth Xavier
A.She has learned new life skills.
B.She has gained a sense of achievement.
C.She has recovered her memory.
D.She has developed a strong personality.
( )7.What do the underlined words “embark on” mean in Paragraph 7
A.Improve. B.Oppose.
C.Begin. D.Evaluate.
( )8.What can we learn about the project from the last two paragraphs
A.It is well received.
B.It needs to be more creative.
C.It is highly profitable.
D.It takes ages to see the results.

A[2024·安徽桐城中学高一月考]
Every morning at 5 am when most people are asleep, a
figure would be busy in the kitchen, cooking meals until the
rest of the volunteers arrive. Day in and day out, Mr Tay and
his team prepare, cook, pack and deliver the food to various
parts of the island.
His journey started when one of his neighbours, Lisa, asked
him to collect vegetables and give them away at Bukit Ho Swee,

a poor neighbourhood, and thus, he continued to do so for a
period of time. During one of these visits, his wife noticed that
the elderly folk did not take the vegetables. Asked why, one
replied that she could not cook, so she only ate the rice
delivered to her. Mrs Tay then offered to cook for her, and it
was that single meal that spurred Willing Hearts, which has
served about 650,000 meals ever since.
The soup kitchen sees many volunteers, some of whom are
new, while others have been around since the organization's

early days. They learn how to cook, interact with people from
all walks of life, pick up different languages, and gain greater
knowledge about social issues, and most importantly, they will
form a strong tie with one another. Through Willing Hearts, Mr
Tay hopes to make “the country's backyard” known to the
younger generation, to allow them to see and experience first-
hand what goes on behind closed doors.
As a non-profit organization, Willing Hearts depends heavily
on donations and food collections.

However, this does not trouble Mr Tay. He believes that you
have to let things flow in gradually, and not be stopped by
concerns which create an unnecessary amount of stress. He calls
the volunteers of Willing Hearts the organization's eyes and ears,
as they are always on the lookout for the poor to lend a hand.

B[2024·山东济宁第一中学高一月考]
The elderly residents (居民) in care homes in London are
being given hens to look after to stop them feeling lonely.
The project was dreamed up by a local charity to reduce
loneliness and improve elderly people's well-being. It is also
being used to help patients suffering dementia, a serious illness
of the mind. Staff in care homes have reported a reduction in
the use of medicine where hens are in use.

Among those taking part in the project is 80-year-old Ruth
Xavier. She said: “I used to keep hens when I was younger and
had to prepare their breakfast each morning before I went to
school.”
“I like the project a lot. I am down there in my wheelchair
in the morning letting the hens out and down there again at
night to see they've gone to bed.”
“It's good to have a different focus. People have been
bringing their children in to see the hens and residents come

and sit outside to watch them. I'm enjoying the creative
activities, and it feels great to have done something useful.”
There are now 700 elderly people looking after hens in 20
care homes in the North East, and the charity has been given
financial support to roll it out countrywide.
Wendy Wilson, the extra care manager at 60 Penfold Street,
one of the first to embark on the project, said: “Residents really
welcome the idea of the project and the creative sessions. We
are looking forward to the benefits and fun the project can
