21、
There is an unusual school called Notch Peak Elementary in a poor area in the USA. The school has just one student, Corinne Gaby and one teacher, Lisa Geary.
Corinne lives on a farm with her parents. The closest school is far away from her home and the road is not safe (安全的) enough to pass during the winter. So the education officials (官员) set up a school for her. It is not a normal school. In fact, it’s a classroom on the second floor of a horse barn (牲口棚) and a wooden stove that provides heat (木炉供热).
In such an environment, the first teacher only stayed there for a year. The next left after two years. Then came Lisa Geary. The first year was really hard for Lisa. She had to face the terrible weather. And it was difficult to teach Corinne at first. Luckily, things became better later. The relation between Corinne and Lisa became close. However, the situation will change when Corinne finishes the sixth grade. Because Lisa needs to take more training to get certifications. And she will leave the school soon.
【1】Why did the local education officials set up the school for Corinne?
A.Because she couldn’t get on well with others at school.
B.Because her family was too poor to pay for a school.
C.Because the road to other schools was long and unsafe for her.
【2】How many teachers taught Corinne?
A.One. B.Two. C.Three.
【3】What does the underlined word “certifications” mean in Chinese?
A.口头承诺 B.资格证书 C.单位盖章
【4】All of the following statements are true EXCEPT (除了) _______.
A.Notch Peak Elementary is different from other schools
B.Lisa spent a hard time in the school at first
C.Corinne always had a good relation with her teacher
【5】What does the passage want to tell us?
A.It’s not easy for children to get a good education in poor areas.
B.People should raise more money for children in poor areas.
C.Teachers should be strict with their students at school.
22、This is a tale of two friends—one is blind, the other has no arms. On their own, the two are “disabled”. But together, they are a powerful team that has changed part of their village in North China’s Hebei Province into a rich, green forest. Meet 53-year-old Jia Haixia and Jia Wenqi!
Their story began in 2000, when Haixia, who was already blind in his right eye, lost his left one after an illness. Wenqi lost his arms in an accident when he was just three. Neither (两个都不) could find a job, so the two decided to team up. They rented (租用) some poor land and began to plant trees. In return, the local officials paid them a small fee (费用).
Haixia and Wenqi never imagined (想象) that they would end up creating an environmental paradise (天堂). Their forest now has over 10,000 trees, hundreds of birds and many other wild animals. Moreover, it saves the village from river flooding during the rainy season.
When the friends work together, they focus on (集中) their strengths not their disabilities. Their day begins at 7 a. m. when the sightless (无视力的) Haixia carries Wenqi across the river to get to their worksite. Since they cannot afford to buy young trees to plant, the two use branches (分支) from existing trees. Haixia climbs to the tree-top and with Wenqi’s direction, selects (选择) the perfect branch. He then digs a hole and carefully plants it. Finally Wenqi waters the area.
Though hard-working, the men don’t make much money. But as Wenqi puts it, “We stand on our own feet, so the fruits of our work taste sweeter.”
Neither Haixia nor Wenqi cares about money. Together, they already have everything they need—a perfect pair of eyes, two strong hands, and the best friendship in the world!
【1】Why did Haixia and Wenqi start working together?
A.Haixia needed someone to help him.
B.They both needed a way to make money.
C.They wanted to improve the environment.
D.They were asked to do so by local officials.
【2】Haixia and Wenqi’s forest has helped the village by ________.
A.stopping floods in the rainy season
B.rising in the number of tourists
C.making the villagers richer
D.providing more farmland
【3】Why do Haixia and Wenqi plant tree branches?
A.They are easy to get.
B.They do not cost money.
C.They can grow very quickly.
D.They are preferred by animals.
【4】In Paragraph 5, when Wenqi says “We stand on our own feet, so the fruits of our work taste sweeter”, he means that “_________”.
A.they hope to make the forest even better
B.the fruits from their trees are very sweet
C.they are proud not to depend on others
D.they are able to do any difficult work
【5】What can we learn from this story?
A.Never give up and you will succeed.
B.We should help the disabled to work.
C.Try your best when facing difficulties.
D.We can achieve more with teamwork.
23、Does your school have charity sales? Our school had one a few days ago. Students brought many things for the sale. There were novels, magazines, toys, cartoon posters and beautiful candles. Most things were almost brand-new. Many students and teachers bought things at the sale. Wu Zhongyue, a Grade 8 student, found that novels for kids were much cheaper. Four copies written by Zheng Yuanjie cost her 10 yuan. Pan Liqi spent 20 yuan on posters and hoped the money would go to poor kids. At last the sale raised about 6,000 yuan.
The purpose of the sale is to help the children in Africa. Every day hundreds of them die because they have diseases or don’t have enough to eat. First, there is no work for the children’s parents, so they have no money to buy food or medicine. Second, the governments in many African countries are too poor to care for the poor. The land and the weather are bad for farming. There are many organizations trying to help these poor people. The organization we are trying to help, the Feed Africa Fund, spends millions of dollars every year on food for poor people in Africa. This money comes from people like you—kind, generous people who do not want to see children die from hunger.
【1】At the sale, Wu Zhongyue bought ________.
A.toys
B.magazines
C.novels
D.cartoon posters
【2】How much did the charity sale collect in all?
A.10 yuan.
B.20 yuan.
C.About 6,000 yuan.
D.Millions of dollars.
【3】The underlined word “brand-new” in the passage means “_________”.
A.全新的
B.半新的
C.新品牌
D.破旧的
【4】What do the African children need most according to the passage?
A.Books and food.
B.Food and medicine.
C.Medicine and books.
D.Food and toys.
【5】The money we raised at the sale will go to ________.
A.the Red Cross
B.the Project Hope
C.the Feed Africa Fund
D.African governments
