22、Every experience that American businesswoman Leigh-Ann Buchanan remembers has come from travel. Her early trips to the countries in Asia, Africa and the Americas were no small things — they assisted her to make connections with community organizations abroad, build leadership skills and find a greater purpose in her voluntary work. All of these experiences played an important part in her becoming a mentor (导师) to high school students.
She saw that many of her students from poor communities had never left the country. This not only shut them out from having life-changing experiences, but made them often miss out on college scholarships (奖学金) because their experiences couldn’t compete with those from higher-income backgrounds.
Then she saw a program founded by her friend in Ghana. It offered US students the opportunity to experience cultural exchanges abroad. Buchanan wondered why the students she mentored in Miami couldn’t have these life-changing experiences. So, she started the Nyah Project in 2014.
Since then, the project has provided money for 57 high-performing high school students throughout poor communities in Miami to have 10-day leadership trips. All 57 have gotten into colleges around the country, and over 90 percent have received full scholarships to college. Nyah fellows, the poor students helped by the Nyah Project, have traveled to countries including Indonesia, Namibia, Costa Rica and South Africa.
The trips bring cultural exchange opportunities, like learning about traditional Balinese dance in Indonesia and teaching younger students in Namibia. Kemoni Alexander, who is studying at Ohio Wesleyan University, was a Nyah fellow in 2017, and traveled to Namibia and South Africa for the first time out of the country.
“The neighborhood that I grew up in wasn’t adequately resourced and my schools were short of money,” Alexander said. “I could hardly believe that I was able to have that opportunity because other people saw that potential in me and believed in me.”
【1】What does the underlined word “assisted” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A.Required.
B.Helped.
C.Trained.
D.Reminded.
【2】Why did Buchanan set up the Nyah Project?
A.To offer students scholarships.
B.To share her travel experiences.
C.To support her friend’s program.
D.To provide chances for poor students.
【3】How do the students benefit from the Nyah Project?
A.They are sure to be mentors in the future.
B.They can enjoy traveling worldwide for free.
C.They can do cultural exchanges on trips.
D.They can all receive full scholarships to college.
【4】What can we infer from Alexander’s words?
A.She was thankful for the opportunity.
B.She was more confident about her ability.
C.She regretted having joined the project.
D.She felt embarrassed about her background.
23、 An extreme sport is a popular term for certain activities regarded as having a high level of danger. These activities often involve sped, height, and a high level of physical effort. In the past, young athletes would play baseball. Today,they want risk and excitement--the closer to the edge, the better. They snowboard over cliffs and mountains, or bike down steep mountains.
Extreme sports started as an alternative to more expensive sports such as golf. A city kid who couldn’t afford expensive sports equipment could get a skateboard and have fun, but now it has become a whole new area of sports, with specialized equipment and high levels of skill. There is even an Olympics for extreme sports, called the winter X-game, which includes snow. Mountain biking and ice climbing.
What makes extreme sports so popular? People love the risk. City people want to be outdoors on the weekend and do something challenging. The new equipment is so much better that people can take more risks without getting hurt. Sure there's a risk. Once you go mountain biking or snowboarding, it’s impossible to go back to bike riding or skiing. It's just too boring.
Now even the older crowd is staring to join in. Every weekend, groups of friends in their early
30s get together. On weekdays they work as computer programmers in the same office. On weekends they rent mountains together.
Extreme sports are certainly no for everyone. Most people still prefer to play basketball or watch sports on TV. But it has been a fact that, extreme sports are gaining in popularity.

【2】Which of the following is NOT the characteristic of extreme sport?
