八、阅读理解。(共10小题,每小题2分,共20分)
A
“Volunteering makes you look at the world differently. You see how little things can change a person's life for the better, which makes everyone a better person,” Mason, a volunteer said.
National Volunteer Week started in 1974 and is held every April. It is a time to thank volunteers for their achievements. It is also a perfect opportunity (机会) to encourage others to take their first step toward becoming a volunteer. Making the decision to take the first step can be the biggest problem, because they often wonder if they will be able to meet the organisation's expectations (期望). Some people fear not knowing anyone else in the group. Not having enough time also prevents some from sharing their abilities.
The following tips can help if you have some of these worries:
★Start out slowly. Don't add too much pressure. Even a few hours a month can make a big difference in someone's life.
★Choose an organisation with the same interest and common values.
★Work with a veteran volunteer. He volunteered a lot, he can help you increase the confidence and completely understand the organisation's expectations.
★Invite a friend or family member to serve. It is a good experience to volunteer with them.
★Finally, it is most important to enjoy the volunteer experience and to remember that not all volunteer experiences are perfect. If one experience doesn't work, don't give up and you'll surely find the right opportunity.
Spend some time on volunteer work and you will see great changes in people's lives. As Mason discovered during his volunteer experience, “. . . little things can change a person's life. ”

B
In 1997, 12?year?old American girl Caitlin and 14?year?old Zimbabwean(津巴布韦人)Martin became pen friends through their schools. They didn't realise 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 pen friend 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) and cool.
Martin lived with his family in one of Zimbabwe's worst slums(贫民窟) where they shared one room with another family. And a bed was their only piece of furniture.
When Caitlin's first letter reached Martin, they were 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 realised 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.
( )51. ____ is from Zimbabwe.
A. Duke B. Caitlin C. Martin D. Frank
( )52. What does the underlined word “revealed” mean in Chinese?
A. 索要 B. 透露 C. 回顾 D. 检索
( )53. Which is the correct order of the following events?
a. They shared their story in a book.
b. Caitlin's first letter reached Martin.
c. Caitlin chose a pen friend from Zimbabwe.
d. Martin got his MBA from Duke University.
A. a?b?c?d B. a?b?d?c C. c?b?d?a D. c?d?b?a
( )54. According to the passage, which of the following is not TRUE?
A. Caitlin chose Zimbabwe because the name sounded exotic and cool.
B. Martin lived a very hard life in one of the worst slums in Zimbabwe.
C. Martin's family could get more food with Caitlin's money in the letters.
D. They had kept writing to each other for five years before Martin arrived in
the US.
( )55. Which would be the best title for this passage?
A. The Two Pen Friends. B. The Power of Writing.
C. The Special School Task. D. The Money in Letters.
九、 任务型阅读。(共5小题,每小题2分,共10分)
True friend
Everyone has friends but not everyone has one, so everyone wants a true friend, and many of us believe that we have a true friend. What is a true friend?
A true friend will be with you whenever you need him or her. When you are happy, a true friend will be by your side and share the lovely moment with you. When you're sad, a true friend will cheer you up and won't run away even if the whole world is against you. When you are in trouble, a true friend will try his or her best to help you without expecting anything in return.
A true friend is like the sun; it always shines on you brightly. A true friend is like wind; it always blows your sadness away. A true friend is like a flower; it will bring you love and peace.
If you have a true friend, you are lucky. If you can also become a true friend of someone, you will be blessed, because it is much easier for all of us to expect but very difficult to give.

I believe friendship is important for everyone because it helps us to live a healthy and happy life. I like making friends with different kinds of people. I like kind, helpful and smart people. When I am in trouble and don't want to tell my parents, I want my friends to be with me. In this way, I can share my feelings with them and be happy again. If we have problems with our friends, it is important to trust each other and learn about the truth. It is a good idea to communicate more. We can solve our friendship problems in such a good way.
