26、Playing for Peace

John Hunter, a primary school teacher, created the World Peace Game as a way for his students to think about big world problems.

The World Peace Game is played on a cube （立方体）of four layers. In the game, there are four countries with 50 interconnected problems to solve. The students play a role in developing solutions to the problems of their assigned （指定的）country. The goal of the game is to save each country from dangerous conditions. When all 50 problems are solved, the game is over, which means the world is in peace.

You might think that the task of solving real-world problems would be daunting to world leaders, let alone fourth graders. Julianne Swope, one of Hunter's students, agrees. "Sometimes the World Peace Game feels like, you know? The weight of the world on your shoulders: This is firing over there and this is a big earthquake, she says. "But I say to myself, I need to fix this." The game shows that young children have the desire to make the world a better, more peaceful place.

The game encourages students to work together and communicate with one another. Students think about questions that have no clear answers, which often leads to long discussions. They consider deep questions in the process and think about the possible results of their decisions. They try to develop creative solutions that lead to a satisfactory decision.

It is no surprise that both Hunter and the World Peace Game are becoming well known. Hunter now spends part of his time teaching the World Peace Game to other teachers. Schools in other countries have started their own versions （版本）of the game as well.

Hunter hopes that by playing for peace, students learn  "how to make people not experience so much pain. " He adds, "I think I now hope the game helps people be kinder. " One of his former students, Irene Newman, is now studying peace in her university. She believes the world will be more peaceful if young people are to solve its problems.

A.Students team up to play the game online.

B.Students answer 50 questions during the game.

C.Students come up with solutions to 50 problems.

D.Students list the dangerous conditions of four countries.

【2】The word "daunting” in Paragraph 3 probably means "________".

A.frightening B.surprising C.attractive D.simple

【3】What do you know about the World Peace Game from the passage?

A.The design o£ this game needs to be improved.

B.John Hunter educates his students through this game.

C.John Hunter limits this game to students in his school.

D.This game helps students easily become leaders in the future.

27、   One morning, Thomas was woken from a deep sleep by a loud roaring(咆哮) noise. It sounded like a wild animal walking around under his bedroom window.

Thomas rushed over to the window. His eyes bulged(凸出) like basketballs ─  There, in the middle of the backyard, was a lion! “Amazing!” cried Thomas.

Suddenly, a giraffe poked(戳) its head through the window. It munched(大声咀嚼) the leaves from a plant by Thomas’s bed. Next, Thomas saw an elephant walk past the swimming pool and squirt(喷出) water all over Dad’s car. “Cool!” cheered Thomas. “Now I don’t have to wash Dad’s car today.”

Thomas grabbed his camera and rushed down the stairs. “ Dad, Dad, you were right!” he shouted.

“The backyard has become a jungle(丛林). Come and see! It’s amazing!” Thomas rushed outside and started taking photos of the animals.

Dad poked his head outside to see what happened. “Oh, my god!” he cried, spilling(溢出) his coffee as a rhinoceros(犀牛) ran past him. “No, no… this can’t be happening,” he cried. “It’s a disaster!”

“Don’t worry, Dad,” said Thomas. “It’s only spilled coffee. We can clean it up later.”

“Thomas, this is your fault(过错). If you mowed(割) the lawns, we wouldn’t be stuck(困在) in the middle of a jungle!” Dad shouted.

Thomas shrugged his shoulders(耸肩). “In fact, Dad, I think it’s really cool. Think of all the money we’ll save on trips to the zoo.”

Thomas’s father left angrily, while Thomas got a group of chimpanzees(黑猩猩) to pose for a photo.

28、How do you feel about your looks? Is it important 【1】 have a beautiful face? Are there other things that can make a person special? The way you look is special.

Sometimes, we might feel bad about looking different. We might feel like we look ugly or strange. But our differences are what make us special.

I recently watched a speech by a man named Robert Hoge. He was born with 【2】 strange-looking face. His mother always worried 【3】 he would face many difficulties in life. But what Hoge did changed his mother's mind little by little. He sometimes 【4】 made fun of by strangers. But he didn't care about it 【5】 all. He decided to accept his face and feel confident.

It's hard when you feel you don't look "normal" or "perfect". But the truth is, no one is perfect. The important thing to remember is that you are special, no matter what you look like.

29、It's necessary to discover what you are good at or not and what you like or dislike.

You can't be sure ________ you like something until you have tried it. If you make a _____that you would like to play the violin, you need to take more music classes ______  you know if you are really interested in it.

It is not enough to hope to be a violinist. You also have to stand (忍受) the _______practice before you become one. If you would enjoy being a great violinist, but ______ the hard and boring work, just give it up.
