Last year, I went to Beijing Qizhi Special Education School for community service. Before we took the bus, my friend asked me a question, “Why are you here?” I did not know how to answer the question.
The school was not far away from my school, but it looked like it was in a different world. A group of children were waiting for us. A boy walked toward me. He held my hands and pulled me to the ground. I kissed the earth and tasted nature.
I could not understand what he was doing at first, and then I was very angry. Though I was very angry. I controlled my anger.
A teacher stopped this awkward (尴尬的)silence when she shouted at the boy. “What are you doing right here, right now?” she said. “You will never see your mum again if you keep doing this. Now, say sorry!” “Sorry. ”he cried fearfully and nervously. I said nothing, but I realized something about this child. After lunch,I asked the teacher for information about the child’s parents.
She said that the child was very different from other students because of an illness. His family could not afford to treat him. He needed the kindness of his family, but they had abandoned him. So he depended on the support from the teachers and community service workers like us.
I suddenly realizec the question my friend asked me at the beginning of the day.
Community service workers help others and make everyone feel better. There are so many people in the world that need help. Playing with lonely children may not make a big difference. But it can light up a corner in the children’s hearts, making them know they are loved by people.

In 1997, 12-year-old American girl Caitlin and 11year-old Zimbabwean(巴布韦人) Martin became penfriends through their schools. They didn’t realize at that time how their handwritten letters would change their lives.
It all began as a school task. Everyone in Caitlin’s class was supposed to choose a penfriend from another country. All the other kids picked countries like France or Germany, but Caitlin chose Zimbabwe because the name sounded exotic(异国风情的) and cool.
Martin lived with his family in one of Zimbabwe’s worst slums(民窟) where they shared one room with another family. And a bed was their only piece of furniture.
When Caitlin’s first letter reached Martin, it was simple and general. The two kids wrote about their favourite music and what they liked to do. But as Martin gradually revealed more about his life and his letters started arriving written on pieces of trash, Caitlin realized what the living conditions were like for Martin. Without telling her parents, she began sending money with her letters ---$20 at a time. While the money was not much to Caitlin, it meant more food for Martin’s family and enabled him to pay his school fees.
It lasted six years from their first exchange of letters to Martin’s arrival in the United States. With the help of the money from Caitlin’s parents later on, Martin finished his university and got his MBA from Duke University.
Today, Caitlin and Martin aren’t only best friends, but they also share their story in a book called I Will Always Write Back. They want to encourage readers to look beyond their own lives and do something kind for others, which might greatly influence their lives.

This is such a heart warming piece of news in the cold winter.Some days ago, the temperature was only-6℃ in Kaifeng, Henan. Someone ordered 50 cups of warm porridge through Meituan App and noted “Please give the porridge to those sanitation(环卫) workers who are clearing snow on the road nearby and those delivery(递送) men who are delivering food.”
When the porridge shop owner received the order, he was moved by the note and provided 60 cups. The story didn’t end here. As soon as the food delivery man got the big order, he shared it with his workmates so that they could also get paid. Finally, Meituan returned the money to the porridge buyer Mr Zhang and gave him a reward of Y500. Although he had to raise his newly-born baby and pay for his house every month. Mr Zhang said he would surely continue delivering love.
The kind help also encouraged many other citizens in Kaifeng. This summer, volunteers are sending cool drinks every day.
Similar stories have happened in many other places in China. Outdoor workers in different cities are able to enjoy free and caring help. Lots of “love posts” are providing “coolness” in hot summer and “warmth” in cold winter. Just as a citizen of Kaifeng said,“I feel deeply moved and warm in heart.”
In fact, we get love and give love every day. Love delivery makes our life better and more beautiful.
根据上面短文的内容回答问题。(每个小题答案不超过6个单词)
1. What did Mr Zhang order through Meituan App?
2. How many cups of porridge did the shop owner provide?
3. What did the delivery man do when he got the big order?
4. Was Mr Zhang rich?
5. How do you feel after reading this passage?

Some people have found that they always spend much more in travelling than planned. Here is how it happens.
Prepare too much before travelling.
Some people, especially females, like to travel as if starting a new life. Several weeks before the trip,they would be busy shopping for new dresses, better sunglasses and bestselling books. They would rather fill their travelling bags up with all fashionable things.Just travelling? Attending a fashion show more like it. They care more about their appearance than the sights they see during the trip.
Follow other travellers blindly.
They can’t stop shopping for objects they would never normally buy and would certainly never use. For example, we can find a group of travellers “getting ahead” to buy “Christmas” presents even in summer.
Replace things that are forgotten to bring.
They don’t remember to bring things like trainers, cool bags, toothbrushes or beach towels. The towels sold near beaches are nearly the price of gold leaves. They spend a lot on those things. However, plenty of new towels are sleeping in their bathroom at home.
根据上面短文的内容填空。(每空词数不限)
6.People usually find themselves ______________ they planned after a holiday trip. There are
mainly______________.
7.Firstly, some female travellers consider a journey as attending a fashion show. How they look
