21、Shipwrecked Prayers
A voyaging ship was wrecked during a storm at sea and only two of the men aboard were able to swim to a small, desert-like island. Not knowing what else to do, the two survivors agreed that they had no alternative but to pray to God.
However, to find out whose prayers were more powerful, they agreed to divide the territory between them and stay on opposite sides of the island.
The first thing they prayed for was food. The next morning, the first man saw a fruit-bearing tree on his side of the island, and he was able to eat its fruit. But the other man’s parcel of land remained barren.
After a week, the first man became lonely and decided to pray for a wife. The next day, another ship was wrecked and the only survivor was a woman who swam to his side of the island. But on the other side of the island, there was nothing.
Soon thereafter the first man prayed for a house, clothes and more food. The next day, like magic, all of these things were given to him. However, the second man still had nothing.
Finally, the first man prayed for a ship so that he and his wife could leave the island, and in the morning he found a ship docked at his side of the island.
The first man boarded the ship with his wife and decided to leave the second man on the island, considering the other man unworthy to receive God’s blessings since none of his prayers had been answered.
As the ship was about to leave, the first man heard a voice from Heaven booming, “Why are you leaving your companion on the island?”
“My blessings are mine alone since I was the one who prayed for them,” the first man answered. “His prayers were all unanswered and so he doesn’t deserve anything.”
“You are mistaken!” the voice rebuked him. “He had only one prayer, which I answered. If not for that, you would not have received any of my blessings.”
“Tell me,” the first man asked the voice, “what did he pray for that I should owe him anything?”
“He prayed that all your prayers would be answered.”
For all we know, our blessings are not the fruits of our prayers alone, but those of another praying for us. So what you do for others is more important than what you do for yourself.

22、Every Wednesday, I go to Cantata Adult Life Services, a local retirement community in Brookfield, Illinois, US, with my classmates to do community service.
After my very first visit to Cantata, my life changed forever. That may sound a bit dramatic, but volunteering with the elderly has changed my views on life.
Our visits last about an hour, and we bring 25-30 students every time. We play board games and cards with the residents while we’re there.
You can watch all the movies and TV shows you want about “life back then”, but nothing compares to talking to the people who were actually there. Just hearing their stories has touched me in a way I never thought possible.
Whether it was talking to 98-year-old “Hurricane Hilda” about her glory days as a roller skater or chatting with Lou about the times she danced with a famous actor, I was completely attracted by every single memory the residents wanted to share with me.
Even the residents who don’t have amazing memories make the experience satisfying . I remember visiting Mrs Robinson. She couldn’t recall much about her past, but she told me she’d never forget how kind I was just to listen to her “rambling (漫谈)”. It made me realize that it’s the little things that make life worth living. That’s something I won’t forget anytime soon.
If there’s one thing I’ve realized in my three years of visiting Cantata, it’s that presence – just being there – means more than anything to many of the residents. And despite how busy our lives are, there’s always time to make someone’s day.
For me, it feels great to be a source of happiness, a smile on a bad day or a listening ear for old memories. And at the end of the day, that’s all that matters.
It’s easy to feel like you don’t have anything in common with the elderly – especially when you’re a teenager. But that’s not true at all.
I hate to be overly clichéd (陈词滥调的) here, but age really is just a number. As young adults, it’s important for us to realize this sooner rather than later. We can learn a lot from the elderly, and they can often benefit from teenagers too.
【1】What do the volunteers do according to the passage?
A. They share everything with the residents.
B. They play board games and cards with the residents.
C. They watch the residents play games.
D. They buy gifts for the residents.
【2】According to the writer, what is the most important thing that volunteers can do for the elderly?
A. Playing with them. B. Benefiting from them.
C. Helping them. D. Being there with them.
【3】 What does the writer want to tell us by writing this passage ?
A. We don’t have anything in common with the elderly.
B. Age is just a number.
C. It is important to help the elderly.
D. Young adults and the elderly can benefit from each other.
23、 Each year，millions of children around the world are unable to go to school. To draw attention to this widespread problem，the United Nations（UN）is putting education first. Recently，the UN screened a documentary film called Back to School. The film is the second in a series of documentaries（纪录片）for the project Time for School.
These films follow seven children from seven different countries. This 12-year project began in 2006，when the children first started school. "This is something we could do to help the education crisis in the world，"said producer and writer Judy Katz. “Documentary film-makers can get deeply involved in a problem and do something about it.”
More than 100 million children will never set foot in a school. Sixty percent of those children are girls. Cheryl Faye，head of the UN Girls Education Initiative，spoke about the many factors that prevent girls from getting an education. One problem is the long distance many children must travel to get to school. Also，girls in many cultures are traditionally expected to marry early and work to help their families. “We need to make a special effort for girls，”Faye said.
As part of the UN's Millennium goals，the organization wants every single child to get at least an elementary education by 2018.
Students from Lawrence Middle School in New York were deeply moved after they saw the film. The seventh grade class is raising money to help build a library on the outskirts of Nairobi，Kenya（肯尼亚），where Joab-a child in the documentary-lives. The class teacher，Karen Weiner，and the class are known in their school as the “Kenya crew”. All the kids were really happy to support Joab and said they felt great about their fund-raising efforts. Like the seventh graders at Lawrence Middle School，kids can work together to make a difference in places like Nairobi. By raising money for education，kids can help children on the other side of the world have a chance of a better，happier life.
【1】What's the purpose of the UN screening the documentary film Back to School？
A.To raise funds for global education.
B.To raise awareness of the need for global education.

【2】Special efforts should be made for girls because ____________
A.sixty percent of the children in the world are girls
B.more than 100 million girls will never go to school
C.most of the girls are tired of going to school
D.more than one half of the children who never go to school are girls
【3】Which of the following could NOT be the factor that prevents girls from getting an education？
A.Long distance from school. B.Being born weak.
C.Helping work for the family. D.Early marriage.
【4】Why are the class teacher，Karen Weiner，and the class considered as “Kenya crew” ？
A.Because they are trying their great efforts to raise money for the education of Kenya Children.
B.Because they are actors in the documentary film Back to School.
C.Because they are mostly from Kenya，where the child in the documentary lives.
D.Because they all have the same experience as Joab，the Kenya child.
【5】The last paragraph mainly discusses__________________
A.American middle school students' desire to go to Kenya
B.the content of the documentary film Back to School
C.an example of being inspired to take action after seeing the film
D.how students from Lawrence Middle School raise money for their education
24、 Although we spend one-third of our lives in bed, we hardly ever think about beds. While we may consider them little more than a mattress(床垫), pillow and blanket, they in fact have a fascinating history.
The first beds were hollows(坑洼) dug in cave floors by our African ancestors around 77,000 years ago. The basic idea of the bed and its structure have remained the same for thousands of years. Malta and Egypt were using raised frames with mattresses 5,000 years ago, according to Brian Fagan, the author of What We did in Bed. Early Egyptian beds consisted of wooden frames with legs and a leather sleeping platform. The mattress was little more than a sack(袋子) with grass, straw and hay in it. In Mongolia and China, heated stone platforms called kang were used in inns as early as 5000 BC.
The basic idea of who slept in the bed, however, has changed a lot through the years. Many family members or friends sleeping together in a single bed used to be completely normal for much of human history. Travelers would not expect privacy at inns. In fact, they had to share a bed with complete strangers. The greatest example of this was the Great Bed of Ware, a huge bed built in 1590 for an English inn. “A total of 52 people—are said to have spent a night in the Great Bed in 1689,” according to Fagan.
Throughout the 19th century, beds gradually became a private space. Rapid urbanization during the Industrial Revolution sped up this process as compact row houses were built with small rooms, each for a different purpose, including sleeping. So the next time you head to bed, be thankful you have your own.

A．Human civilization.
B．Rapid urbanization.
C．Social interaction.

【4】Where is the text most probably taken from?
