21、To many students, high school is just a basic routine. You go to class in the morning, take a break for lunch and go home in the afternoon.
This isn't quite that simple for pupils at Royal West Academy. As if classes and homework weren’t already enough, students are also required to complete a range of extracurricular activities, or ECAs.
The range of ECAs being offered at the school is various, including everything from guitar and jewelry-making clubs, fund-raising marches, to student committees, swimming and tennis.
“I love ECAs. I’m so happy we have them,” said grade 11 student Adrienne, who is a soccer player and member of the graduation committee. “They motivate the students, and they’re a great bonding experience. I think that without them, not half as many students would be joining up for the soccer team.”
Requiring students to complete ECAs is a sign of the times. That’s because young people are preparing for the future in ways that weren’t considered necessary before. This is an era when ECAs are seen as important. Whether it’s for leadership experience, sports, craft skills or volunteer these things are seen as rounding out the individual and improving their future.
ECAs can also help students discover their likes and dislikes. But as the old song says, you can’t always get what you want, especially when so many students are all trying to sign up for the most popular activities.
ECAs can cut into study and homework time if you’re not careful. You really have to get organized or you’ll fall apart.
【1】The students at Royal West Academy may do the following ECAs except ______.
A. to play musical instruments
B. to raise money for an organization
C. to attend sports events
D. to have classes discussions
【2】From what Adirienne said, we know that _______.
A. most of his classmates are interested in football
B. one can make many new friends in ECAs
C. students get encouraged to join in ECAs
D. half of his classmates are unwilling to join in ECAs.
【3】Why are ECAs important now?
A. They prepare the students for their future.
B. They can make students get what they want.
C. they can help students find their strong points.
D. They can reduce students’ learning time.
【4】From the last paragraph, we can infer that _______.
A. ECAs can increase your burden of learning
B. you may fall down when playing in ECAs
C. too many ECAs may leave you in trouble
D. you need to organize other students in ECAs

24、Nobody knows the value of a good doll better than Jandrisevits. “Dolls have a power we don’t completely understand,” she said. It’s a conclusion she came to while working as a social worker using dolls to help her young clients adapt to their changing medical situations. Many of the kids saw themselves in those dolls. But for the kids missing a limb or who had lost their hair, there were none they could relate to.
So, seven years ago, when a friend revealed that her child was stuck in self-doubt and self-distrust, Jandrisevits, now 49, knew what might help the youth through this potentially challenging period. “It’s hard to tell a kid, ‘You are perfect the way you are,’ and to build self-esteem (自尊) that way, but never offer them anything that looks like them,”she says.
Jandrisevits went about changing that. She crafted a doll by hand — using fabric, stitching, and markers — that resembled (像) her friend’s child and sent it off. After the friend posted a photo online of the happy child and doll, another woman asked Jandrisevits to make a doll that looked like her baby, who was missing a leg.
Word spread, and soon Jandrisevits was making dolls for children with scars, birthmarks, facial deformities(畸形), — in short, a doll that looked like them. She quit her job and started a nonprofit, A Doll Like Me.
Working out of her home in Milwaukee, from photos sent by parents or caregivers, it takes Jandrisevits roughly three days to craft only one doll. A GoFundMe page helps her cover costs and allows her to donate her services. She hasn’t charged for a doll since she began her nonprofit.
In all, she’s made more than 400 dolls. The waiting list is long, but Jandriscvits will never give up. As she explains on her GoFundMe page, “Every kid, regardless of gender, ethnicity, age, medical issue, or body type, should look into the sweet face of a doll and see their own.”
【1】What made Jandrisevits realize the value of dolls?
A．The influence of dolls on her.
B．Her working experience.
C．The changing medical situations.
D．Her relation to the unlucky kids.
【2】What does the underlined word ―that‖ refer to in paragraph 3?
A．Children’s concern about their looks.
B．The problems faced by the child of a friend.
C．The challenging period the youth are going through.
D．The fact that words alone fail to help build self-esteem.
【3】What can be inferred about Jandrisevits’ making dolls?
A．It targets children with mental problems.
B．It is time-consuming but meaningful.
C．It is thought poorly of by people.
D．It brings in a good fortune.
【4】Which of the following best describes Jandrisevits?
A．Creative and caring.
B．Ambitious and devoted.
C．Considerate and sensitive.
D．Knowledgeable and generous.
