You probably know who Marie Curie was, but you may not have heard of Rachel Carson.Of the outstanding ladies listed below, who do you think was the most important woman of the past 100 years?
Jane Addams( 1860—1935)
Anyone who has ever been helped by a social worker has Jane Addams to thank.Addams helped the poor and worked for peace.She encouraged a sense of community (社区)by creating shelters and promoting education and services for people in need.In 1931, Addams became the first American woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize.
Rachel Carson (1907—1964)
If it weren't for Rachel Carson, the environmental movement might not exist today.Her popular 1962 book Silent Spring raised awareness of the dangers of pollution and the harmful effects of chemicals on humans and on the world's lakes and oceans.
Sandra Day O'Connor (1930—present)
When Sandra Day O'Connor finished third in her class at Stanford Law School, in 1952, she could not find work at a law firm because she was a woman.She became an Arizona state senator(参议员)and, in 1981, the first woman to join the US Supreme Court.O'Connor gave the deciding vote in many important cases during her 24 years on the top court.
Rosa Parks (1913—2005)
On December 1，1955, in Montgomery, Alabama, Rosa Parks would not give up her seat on a bus to a white passenger.Her simple act landed Parks in prison.But it also set off the Montgomery bus boycott.It lasted for more than a year, and kicked off the civil-rights movement.“The only tired I was，was tired of giving in，”said Parks.

阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
（2019·全国卷Ⅱ）“You can use me as a last resort（选择）， and if nobody else volunteers， then I will do it.” This was an actual reply from a parent after I put out a request for volunteers for my kids' lacrosse（长曲棍球） club.
I guess that there's probably some demanding work schedule， or social anxiety around stepping up to help for an unknown sport.She may just need a little persuading.So I try again and tug at the heartstringsＷ.I mention the single parent with four kids running the show and I talk about the dad coaching a team that his kids aren't even on...At this point the unwilling parent speaks up，“Alright.Yes， I'll do it.”
I'm secretly relieved because I know there's real power in sharing volunteer responsibilities among many.The unwilling parent organizes the meal schedule， sends out emails， and collects money for end-of-season gifts.Somewhere along the way， the same parent ends up becoming an invaluable member of the team.The coach is able to focus on the kids while the other parents are relieved to be off the hook for another season.Handing out sliced oranges to bloodthirsty kids can be as exciting as watching your own kid score a goal.
Still， most of us volunteers breathe a sigh of relief when the season comes to a close.That relief is coupled with a deep understanding of why the same people keep coming back for more ： Connecting to the community（社区）as you freely give your time， money， skills， or services provides a real joy.Volunteering just feels so good.
In that sense， I'm pretty sure volunteering is more of a selfish act than I'd freely like to admit.However， if others benefit in the process， and I get some reward too， does it really matter where my motivation lies？
【语篇解读】 本文介绍作者自己参与并鼓励他人参与志愿者工作的经历，论述了志愿者工作的独特意义。
1.What can we infer about the parent from her reply in Paragraph 1 ？
A.She knows little about the club.
B.She isn't good at sports.
C.She just doesn't want to volunteer.
D.She's unable to meet her schedule.
解析：推理判断题。根据第一段第一句“You call use me as a last resort（选择），and if nobody else volunteers，then I will do it”和第二段中的“the unwilling parent”可推断，这位家长不想做志愿者工作。故选C。
答案：C
2.What does the underlined phrase “tug at the heartstrings” in Paragraph 2 mean？
A.Encourage teamwork. B.Appeal to feelings.
C.Promote good deeds. D.Provide advice.
解析：词义猜测题。根据前一句“She may just need a little persuading”以及后面的“the unwilling parent speaks up，‘Alright.Yes，I'll do it.’”可知，tug at the heartstrings的意思是“打动（她）”。
答案：B
3.What can we learn about the parent from Paragraph 3 ？
A.She gets interested in lacrosse.
B.She is proud of her kids.
C.She'll work for another season.
D.She becomes a good helper.
解析：细节理解题。根据第三段第三句中的“the same parent ends up becoming an invaluable member of the team”可知，这位家长最后成了一个好帮手。
答案：D
4.Why does the author like doing volunteer work？
A.It gives her a sense of duty.
B.It makes her very happy.
C.It enables her to work hard.
D.It brings her material rewards.
解析：细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Connecting to the community（社区）as you freely give your time，money，skills，or services provides a real joy.Volunteering just feels so good”很容易看出来，作者觉得做志愿者工作很快乐。所以选B。
答案：B
Ⅴ.七选五

1 You probably think you will never be a top student.This is not necessarily so， however.Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to.Here is how.

Develop a good attitude towards the tests
The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject.They help you to remember your new knowledge.The world won't end if you don't pass a test，so don't be overly worried.

When the car's owner， 52-year-old Xue Zhanmin， discovered the damage the next morning， he was very angry.But Xue's attitude changed when he spotted the letter and began to read.“I read the letter and was moved by the student's honesty，”he said.“Everyone makes mistakes， but what's important is that you take responsibility for those mistakes.”
Xue wanted to find Chen， but Chen had not left his name on the letter.So he turned to the police and told them his plan.He asked the police to help him look for Chen so that he could reward his honesty.It took a few days for the police to find Chen.
When Chen's mother learned what had happened， she offered to compensate Xue for all his losses， but the offer was refused.Instead， Xue said he would give Chen 10，000 yuan to finance his further education.He appreciated the boy's honesty and wanted to encourage him to continue making the right decisions in life.
Chen's mother said Xue's reaction was sure to have a positive effect on her son.“The accident was my son's fault，but it was comforting to hear he had a sense of responsibility，”she said.“He told me that，in future，he will also do his best to reward the kindness of strangers.”

With millions of people visiting China's mountains every year， keeping them trash-free is quite difficult.That's where Spiderman cleaners come in.
Spiderman cleaners get their name from the dangerous nature of their job.They dangle （悬荡） thousands of feet above the ground on the side of steep mountain cliffs（悬崖）， supported only by ropes， as they try to collect hard-to-reach trash.To show the danger of their work and make tourists think twice before littering， some of them actually exchanged their regular uniforms for Spiderman costumes.This has made them a hit with visitors， who often stop to watch these real-life versions of their favourite superhero， rewarding them with applause and cheers when they complete their task.
Spiderman cleaners really risk their life every time they go after a piece of trash left in popular scenic spots by tourists who never stop to think about the impact their deed may have on nature or the people tasked with cleaning up after them.To them， injuries are frequent and the stress is so great that they sometimes faint（晕倒）on the job.Because of the dangerous nature of the job， few people have the courage to work as Spiderman cleaners and those who do are rewarded generously.For example， the Guimeng Scenic Spot put up an ad for a Spiderman cleaner， offering 10，000 yuan a day， but also mentioned that the work was to be performed “at your own risk”.
Spiderman cleaners all around China pick up tons of litter from the scenic mountains every year.Some of them have been doing it for over a decade and they don't plan on stopping anytime soon.Luckily， after the job has been reported by the national media during the past few years， more people have begun to think twice before littering.Less and less trash has been found in recent years， which means Spiderman cleaners don't have to risk their life as often as they used to.
So the next time you feel like throwing a piece of trash in a scenic spot， spare a thought for these unsung heroes（无名英雄）and how they risk their life to keep the world clean for everybody.

Good afternoon，everyone.
My hero is a middle-aged woman named Li Dan.She isn't beautiful or rich，and she is just an ordinary street cleaner.So why is she my hero？First，I admire her because of her deep devotion to her common but useful work， which requires her to work for more than nine hours a day，rain or shine.Second，she has a kind heart and always manages to return the wallets or cellphones she finds while working to the owners.There's a lot that I should learn from her.
In short，my heroes are those who do small things in life，because it's the small things that count.
That's all.Thank you！
