【导语】 十年前,一位志愿者英语教师,在四川度过了充实而忙碌的岁月。课堂的欢声笑语、语言的挑战、寄宿家庭的温暖,交织成一段难忘的记忆,至今仍萦绕心头。
It's now been 10 years since I finished my service as a volunteer English teacher in China.Working at a university in Sichuan Province,I was in charge of helping students with their English.Looking back on my experience,I have mixed feelings of fondness,longing① and relief②:fondness for my students;longing for a return to such fulfilling③ times;yet relief that such a busy,stressful time of my life came to a successful conclusion.
I attended about an average of four hours of classes from Monday to Saturday.[1]This was a humbling experience,to say the least,as I soon realized that learning Chinese would probably be the hardest thing I'd ever tried to do.
I assumed④ my Chinese would improve quickly,as the volunteers are required to live with a host family for roughly two months.Unfortunately for me,however,my “host sister” insisted on⑤ practicing her English all the time,so I picked up very little outside my lessons.[2]But staying with a local family was a wonderful experience that smoothed my transition in China and gave me a deeper understanding of Chinese culture.
I taught at Southwest Petroleum University for two years.Overall,the experience was extremely positive and rewarding⑥.
由文积词汇 据文悟句式
①longing n.  渴望
②relief n. 宽慰
③fulfilling adj. 令人满足的
④assume v. 假定;假设;认为
⑤insist on 坚决要求
⑥rewarding adj. 有益的 [1]:句中“to say the least”为插入语,as引导原因状语从句,从句中that引导宾语从句,作动词realized的宾语,而“I'd ever tried to do”为省略关系代词“that”的定语从句,修饰先行词“the hardest thing”。
[2]:句中“staying with a local family”为动词-ing形式短语作主语;that引导定语从句,修饰先行词“a wonderful experience”。

VOLUNTEERING IN THE BUSH
8 March
I just got a parcel① from home! It took about two weeks to arrive,and it was a bit damaged,but it was so nice to get some sweets and jam② from home;[1]I've been dying to have③ some of my favourite sweets,and it's always nice to get mail④!

So I've been here in the jungle for about a month now.My secondary⑤school is a bush school.The classrooms are made of bamboo,with clay⑥ floors and roofs of grass.[2]It takes me only a few minutes to walk to school down a dusty⑦ track covered in weeds⑧. When I reach the school grounds,I'm greeted by a chorus of⑨ “good morning” from the boys.Unlike students in our country,these boys do not wear cotton uniforms⑩,and many of them also have to walk a long way,sometimes for up to two hours,just to get to school.
[2]本句为“It takes sb some time to do sth.”句型,意为“做某事花费某人多长时间。”;covered in weeds为过去分词短语作后置定语。

There's no electricity,running water or even textbooks,not to mention laptops,tablets ,or other modern devices! All the students have are pencils,rubbers ,and paper.I'm still trying to adapt to these conditions.I've had to become much more imaginative in my teaching.Science is my most challenging subject as my students have no concept of doing experiments.[3]There is no equipment,and since there isn't even a washroom ,if I need water I have to carry it from my house in a basin ! It's important not to be too rigid about rules here,too.[4]The other day I was showing the boys a chemistry experiment when,before I knew it,the mixture was bubbling out of the test tube spilling everywhere![5]The class became a circus as the boys,who had never
come across anything like this before,started jumping out of the windows. Sometimes I wonder how relevant chemistry is to these students—few will ever become chemists —and most will be going back to their villages after Year 8 anyway.To be honest ,I doubt whether I'm making any difference to these boys' lives at all.
[3]本句中since引导原因状语从句;if引导条件状语从句。
[4]本句为“be doing...when...”句型,意为“正在做……这时……”;before 引导时间状语从句;spilling everywhere为动词-ing形式短语作状语。

17 April
Last weekend I made my first visit to a remote village,home to one of our students,Tombe.Another teacher and I walked for two and a half hours to get there—first,up a mountain [6]from where we had fantastic views ,and then down a shaded path to the valley below.[7]When we arrived at the village,Tombe's mother,Kiak,saw us coming and started crying “ieee ieee”. We shook hands with all the villagers.Everyone seemed to be related to Tombe.
[6]此处为from where引导的定语从句,修饰先行词a mountain。
[7]本句中“When we arrived at the village”为When引导的时间状语从句;“Tombe's mother...‘ieee ieee’”为主句,其中“see sb doing sth ”意为“看见某人正在做某事”。
make one's visit to...拜访……
fantastic views迷人的景色
shade/?eId/vt.给……遮挡(光线);加灯罩;把……涂暗n.阴凉处;灯罩;阴影部分
Tombe's father,Mukap,a man with a strong jaw and a wrinkled forehead ,led us to his house,a low,round bamboo hut with no windows,with a door just big enough to get through,and [8]with grass sticking out of the roof—this shows it is a man's house.Such housing is dark inside so it took time for our eyes to adjust .Fresh grass had been laid on the floor and there was a platform for Jenny and me to sleep on.There was a fireplace in the centre of the hut.The only possessions [9]I could see were one broom ,a few saucers ,a kettle ,cups,pans ,and a couple of jars .
[8]此处为with复合结构,即“with+宾语+宾语补足语”,在句中作定语,修饰hut。
[9]此处为省略关系代词that的定语从句,修饰先行词possessions。
jaw/d???/n.颌;下巴
wrinkled forehead布满皱纹的前额
wrinkle/?rI?kl/vt.& vi.(使脸上)起皱纹;皱起 n.皱纹
forehead/?f??hed;?f?rId/n.额;前额
hut/h?t/n.简陋的小房子(或棚、舍)
stick out of...从……中伸出,探出,突出
housing/?ha?zI?/n.住房;住宅

adjustment n.调整,调节
platform/?pl?tf??m/n.平台;站台;舞台

possession n.[usually pl.]所有物;财产;财物

saucer/?s??s (r)/n.茶碟;杯托
kettle/?ketl/n.(烧水用的)壶;水壶
pan/p?n/n.平底锅;烤盘
jar/d???(r)/n.罐子;坛子
Mukap built a fire outside and laid stones on it to heat.He then placed the hot stones in an empty oil drum with kau kau(sweet potato),ripe corn,and greens .He then covered the vegetables with banana leaves and left them to steam.It smelled delicious.We ate inside the hut [10]sitting round the fire.I loved listening to the family talking,softly to each other in their language,even though I could not participate much in the conversation.Luckily,Tombe interpreted for us.
[10]此处为动词-ing形式短语作方式状语。
build a fire(=make a fire)生火
ripe/raIp/adj.成熟的;时机成熟的
greens n.绿叶蔬菜
Later,I noticed a can standing upside down on the grill over the fire.After a while,Tombe threw it out of the doorway .Tombe told me that the can was heated to dry out the leftover food.[11]His family believes that leftovers attract bad spirits in the night,so any leftover food is dried up in a can and the can is then thrown out of the hut.
[11]本句中that引导宾语从句;and连接并列句。  
upside down颠倒地
grill/?rIl/n.烤架;烤肉餐馆
doorway/?d??weI/n.门口;出入口;门道
dry out (使)干透;(使)完全变干
leftover/?left ?v (r)/adj.吃剩的;残留的n.吃剩的食物;遗留物

We left the village the next morning after many goodbyes and firm handshakes .
[12]My muscles were aching and my knees shaking as we dragged ourselves down the mountain towards home.That evening I fell happily into bed.[13]It was such a privilege to have spent a day with Tombe's family.
[12]此处“My muscles were aching”和“my knees shaking”为and连接的两个句式相同的并列分句,第二个分句shaking前省略了系动词were。
[13]本句为“It is/was a privilege to do sth.”句型,意为“有幸做某事。”;to have spent是动词不定式的完成式,表示该动作先于谓语动词表示的动作发生或完成。
handshake/?h?nd?e?k/n.握手
drag/dr??/vt.拖;拽vt.& vi.缓慢而费力地移动
drag oneself down/to/out of...费力地走下/走到/走出……
privilege/?prIv lId?/n.优惠待遇;特权

丛林里的志愿行动
3月8日
我刚收到一个从家里寄来的包裹!大约花了两周的时间包裹才到达,虽然有点破损,但是真高兴能收到家里寄来的一些糖果和果酱;我一直非常渴望吃一些我最喜欢的糖果,而且收到邮包总是令人开心不已!
到现在我已经在丛林里待了大约一个月了。我所在的中学是一所丛林学校。教室是用竹子建造的,黏土铺的地面,茅草搭的屋顶。沿着杂草丛生、尘土飞扬的小路,我几分钟就能走到学校。当我走进校园时,男孩们齐声对我喊“早上好”。与我们国家的学生不同,这些男孩不穿棉质校服,他们中的很多人需要长途跋涉——有时长达两个小时才能到学校。
这里没有电,没有自来水,甚至也没有教科书,更不用说笔记本电脑、平板电脑或其他现代化设备了!学生们只有铅笔、橡皮和纸。我还在努力适应这些条件。在我的教学中,我不得不变得更有想象力。科学课对我来说是最具挑战性的科目,因为我的学生们没有做实验这一概念。这里没有设备,甚至连洗手间都没有。如果我需要水的话,我得用盆子从我的房间里端过来!在这里,很重要的一点是也不能太墨守成规。几天前,我正在给男孩们演示一个化学实验,这时,在我反应过来之前,混合物冒着泡从试管中涌出,洒得到处都是!班上乱成了一个马戏团,因为男孩们以前从没遇到过像这样的事情,他们开始跳窗跑走。有时,我会想化学对这些学生来说到底有多大的意义——几乎没有人会成为化学家——而且大多数人反正都要在八年级后回到自己的村庄。说实话,我怀疑我是否能给这些男孩们的生活带来任何影响。
4月17日
上周末,我第一次拜访了一个偏远的村庄,我们的学生汤贝的家在那里。我和另一位老师步行了两个半小时才到达那里。首先,我们爬上了一座山,从那里我们看到了迷人的景色,然后沿着一条树荫遮蔽的小路走到了下面的山谷。我们到达村庄时,汤贝的母亲齐亚克看见我们到了,就“唉咿唉咿”地喊了起来。我们和所有的村民握手,每个人似乎都是汤贝的亲戚。
汤贝的父亲穆卡普是一位下巴结实、额头满是皱纹的男人,他带领我们来到他的房子:一座低矮的圆形竹屋,没有窗户,门的宽度仅够单人穿过,屋顶伸出一簇茅草——这表明这是一个男人的房子。这样的房屋里面很暗,所以过了一会儿我们的眼睛才适应过来。地上铺着新草,还有一个让我和珍妮睡觉的平台。屋子中央有个火炉。我能看到的物品只有一把扫帚、几个碟子、一个水壶、杯子、平底锅和几个罐子。
穆卡普在屋外生了火,然后把石头放在火上加热。接着,他把热石头放入一个有栲栲(甘薯)、熟玉米和青菜的空油桶里。然后他用香蕉叶盖住蔬菜,把它们蒸上。食物闻起来很香。我们在屋内围着火炉吃饭。我喜欢听这家人用他们的语言轻声地交谈,虽然我参与不了多少他们的谈话,但是幸好有汤贝为我们解说。
后来,我注意到炉火上方的烤架上倒放着一个罐子。过了一会儿,汤贝把它扔到了门外。他告诉我把罐子烤热是为了使剩饭完全变干。他的家人认为,剩饭会在晚上引来恶鬼,所以要把所有的剩饭放在罐子里烘干,然后把罐子扔到屋外去。
第二天早上,经过多次道别和有力的握手之后,我们离开了村庄。当我们费力地走下山回家时,我的肌肉酸痛,膝盖发抖。那天晚上我带着愉快的心情入睡了。与汤贝一家共度了一日,真是一种荣幸。

23-year-old Rachna Kumari is a soft-spoken young woman selling unique wheat stalk paintings (麦秆画) handmade by herself.Every morning,even before her mother awakens,she finishes cooking and cleaning before cycling 5 km to run her shop alone.Over the past year,she has sold about 200 of her paintings,50 of which were bought since she opened her shop in April this year.
However,back in 2019,Rachna had almost given up on life after having to leave school due to her family's financial problems.She became depressed,thinking she would have to spend the rest of her days doing household chores.
Around this time,the Aga Khan Foundation (AKF) came into the picture with Project Lehar,started to provide vocational training,entrepreneurship (创业),and life skills courses to young women.Project Lehar,run by AKF in partnership with The King's Trust International,enables girls and young women from disadvantaged backgrounds to rediscover and realise their potential.This was a good opportunity for Rachna not just to continue her studies but also to convince her parents to drop her marriage plans.
After she was admitted into college through Project Lehar,she was also given some suggestions on entrepreneurial and career prospects.One such session on wheat stalk painting made her fall in love with this traditional art form of Bahraich and her creativity was brought out.
Now she is economically independent by selling wheat stalk paintings.However,Rachna is not resting on her achievements.Her shop also doubles up as a training centre where other girls from disadvantaged backgrounds like her who want to stand on their feet get a second chance to change their lives like she did.
While teaching these enthusiastic young girls is a joyful experience,what gives Rachna more pride is being chosen as a wheat stalk painting trainer by the foundation.From being a trainee under this project to now becoming its paid trainer,Rachna's life has come full circle.
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Rachna在一个基金项目的帮助下重拾学业,通过出售手工制作的麦秆画而获得经济独立,并帮助其他年轻女孩改变生活的故事。

Each morning at 6 o'clock,even on weekends,Kamaljeet Singh,57,is up and out of the house.He starts by spending three hours helping distribute food to nearly two dozen drop-off locations across Delhi,India,and then checks on the many facilities run by the volunteer organization he leads with his brother,Premjit.The organization,Veerji Ka Dera,was founded in 1989 by their father,Trilokchan Singh.
Trilokchan and his helpers began supporting one of India's most underserved groups:the migrant workers who came to Delhi from rural areas.It started with a free breakfast,and eventually the group was also providing basic first aid for minor,often job-related,injuries.During this time,Trilokchan would begin his days as early as 4 o'clock in the morning,then go to his paid job 5 hours later,and end each day by volunteering in the evenings.
After his death,Kamaljeet and Premjit,inspired by their father's lifetime of service,took over the organization.“We are continuing his legacy of helping the poorest of the poor,” says Premjit,61.“Our aim is that no one goes hungry and uncared for in Delhi.”
Veerji Ka Dera now feeds about 2,500 daily-wage workers and homeless people a day,in addition to providing basic medical care for as many as 500 people.The group operates a main building in west Delhi,several rented farms-growing crops such as wheat,mustard,millet and rice—an old-age home and clinics.It even operates an animal shelter housing a few hundred rescued cows and buffalo.
It's all made possible by the roughly 250 families who volunteer their time to cook,drive,nurse,farm and clean.Kamaljeet and his wife,Raminder,juggle their volunteer work with managing their security-camera installation (设备) company,and they get help from their son and daughter-in-law,too.His other adult children,who now live abroad,have volunteered in the past,as have Premjit's kids.
Despite the size and scope of the organization,the brothers claim it causes them no stress.Kamaljeet says spending time with his brother and the volunteers,especially young people,is “the best”.

B.To compare his work with his sons'.
C.To show his influence on his sons.
D.To describe his tough living conditions.

7.What does the underlined word “juggle” mean in paragraph 5
A.Combine. B.Share.
C.Connect. D.Balance.
解析 D 词义猜测题。根据倒数第二段“Kamaljeet and his wife...and daughter-in-law,too.”可知,他们还得到了儿子和儿媳的帮助,说明Kamaljeet和他的妻子要平衡志愿者工作和管理他们的监控摄像头安装公司。故画线词的意思是“平衡”。故选D。
8.What is the text mainly about
A.A caring family tradition.
B.A worthy organization.
C.A mysterious tale.
D.A meaningful experience.
解析 B 主旨大意题。文章主要是关于一个值得称赞的慈善机构。故选B。
Ⅱ.阅读七选五(每小题2.5分,共12.5分)
Yesterday I volunteered with some of my fellow Rotaract Club of Hampstead,Hendon,and Golders Green (HH&GG) members at the Hampstead Activity.Rotaract is a service club for people aged 18 to 30.Through the Rotaract program,young adults can meet new people and learn new skills. 1 .
When we arrived at the Activity we had no idea what we would be asked to do. 2 .My feet were wet within minutes of getting there!
3 ,making sure no unauthorised people got on it during the show.I'm pleased to say we managed to do this successfully! We also were able to hear the Chicken Shed Theatre group and An get Blue singing—both were brilliant.
However,volunteering isn't supposed to be fun,is it It is supposed to be a selfless act which you do for others,so the fact that you don't enjoy it doesn't matter,right
Wrong! 4 ! It might not always involve meeting celebrities or doing something new and exciting,but it can always be fun.And volunteering isn't necessarily a selfless act—you can learn and develop skills,try new things,and meet lots of new and interesting people.
We gave up our time to help out at the Activity,despite the bad weather,with no idea of what our role would be. 5 .For example,we got more chairs for the stage when required.We had a fantastic experience this Sunday afternoon.
A.It was a cold,dark,rainy day
B.Volunteering is supposed to be fun
C.Also they can help their local community
D.Our role at the event would be to turn the lights on
E.Some past members of the club have benefited a lot
F.Our role at the Activity was to stand behind the stage
G.We not only had an important job but also helped in other ways
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者作为Rotaract Club的一员,在Hampstead Activity进行志愿服务的经历。
1.C 上文提到Rotaract是一个服务俱乐部,年轻人可以在这里遇到新的人并学习新技能。因此,接下来应该是讲述Rotaract的另一个功能,即帮助当地社区。C项中的“they”指代上文中的“young adults”。C项符合语境。故选C。
2.A 根据下文可知,天气不好,很快就让作者的脚湿了。因此,可以推断出上文描述的是一个寒冷、黑暗、下雨的日子。A项符合语境。故选A。
3.F 根据下文可知,空处指出了作者在活动上的任务。F项符合语境。故选F。
4.B 下文进一步强调了志愿服务的乐趣。B项符合语境。故选B。
5.G 上文提到我们放弃了时间去帮助活动,尽管天气不好,也不知道我们的角色会是什么;但接下来却提到当需要时,我们为舞台准备了更多的椅子;因此,可以推断出我们不仅在重要任务上有所贡献,还在其他方面提供了帮助。G项符合语境。故选G。
