They live a hard life. They are poor and always don’t have enough food to eat.‎ Food banks are the organizations to help these poor people. Food banks receive the food from companies or supermarkets, and also from donations from the public. In this way, they collect extra food and other things and give them out to people who are hungry.‎ The first food bank was St. Mary’s Food Bank. It started in 1967 in Arizona. In 1979, it became a larger organization named America’s Second Harvest Network-made up of over 200 food banks across the USA. Each year, the Network provides food for more than 25 million hungry people in the United States, including more than 9 million children and nearly 3 million old people.‎ Volunteers are important to food banks. There are many different was for you to volunteer. You can help out through activities such as:‎ ‎*Sorting, boxing and packaging donated food.‎ ‎*Tutoring poor kids at your local Kids Cafe ‎*Transporting or delivering food It’s simple.

Let’s become volunteers D. Make our world without hunger B People in the US say Sundays’ big hurricane has made the death reach 116 and that search efforts continue for possible survivors trapped in rubble(碎石). Search and rescue teams are conducting their third sweep through the nearly 10 kilometer-long and one-kilometer wide area of destruction left by the hurricane. They are working as quickly as possible while weather conditions remain relatively stable. More storms are forecast for the area.‎ Joplin Fire Chief Mitch Randles said there are areas with large piles of rubble that might hold survivors. “We are still finding individuals. We did rescue seven individuals from underneath rubble yesterday and, of course, we are also finding dead people as well.” Said more people and that is why we are doing these searches. We want to make every opportunity that we can to find every body that is the rubble and that has survived to this point.”‎ Randles said the current sweep involves a slower pace that previous searches and that he plans a fourth search, possibly on Wednesday, using specially trained dogs. “We are searching every structure that has been damaged or destroyed in a more in-depth manner,” he said, “ I have dogs and dog handlers coming from all over the country do help us in that effort.”‎ Joplin City Manager Mark Rohr said the Red Cross and other volunteer organizations are helping people who were left homeless by the hurricane and that the Federal Emergency Management Agency, or FEMA, is on hand to help. “Joplin is a great city. We have suffered a great loss,” said Rohr. “We will recover strongly and we have a lot of help and a lot of volunteers to make that easier.”‎ The hurricane that struck Joplin was classified by the National Weather Service as an F—4 , with winds of more than 300 kilometers per hour. It lasted only 20 minutes, but it killed more than 100 people, injured more than 400 others, and destroyed or ‎ heavily damaged some 2,000 homes, businesses, churches and a hospital. Authorities have registered more than 1,700 calls about missing people and they hope to resolve most of those cases soon, as victims are identified and survivors come forth and reunited with loved ones.‎ This was the worst hurricane to strike the United States in 60 years. It was the latest in a wave of violent storms that have swept Midwestern and southern states in recent weeks leaving more than 300 people dead and causing more than 2 billion dollars in damage.‎ ‎25.

More than 100‎ C Now a lot of people are paying much money to get their children the music teaching. As we know to learn an instrument such as the violin or accordion(手风琴)takes years. The job opportunities for musicians are scarce and competition is fierce. Then why are more people than ever before paying a lot of good cash to get their children the best music teaching they can afford?‎ The secret lies in the influence of music on the whole person. It has been found that learning a musical instrument actually increases a person’s IQ over time. Different instruments and different types of music have varying effect, with classical music and the string family coming out on top, potentially increasing you IQ by up ‎ to 12 points!‎ When is a good time to start learning music? Experts have found that even the fetus(胎儿)can benefit from listening to classical music. Surround yourself and your family with good music from the first. The Suzuki Piano Method teaches children from the age of 3 years piano, with two lessons per week. From preschool, children can learn to read music and play from sheet music. Progress in learning your instrument is directly proportional(成比例的)to the amount of practicing.‎ Is there such a thing as an unmusical child? Shinichi Suzuki proposes that music is the native home language of all human beings and therefore nobody can be “unmusical”. Of course there are exceptional talents, compared to which others may seem to be slower learners.‎ ‎ Is there any benefit for adults in starting an instrument? Apart from the purely relaxing aspect, yes. Learning an instrument can earn even adults additional IQ points, and as added benefit in improves your health by reducing your stress levels. Your social life may benefit too, if you are prepared to come out of your box and join occasions such as Childish(musical get-togethers) or arrange house concerts. It has been established that people who play instruments tend to be more emotionally balanced and more patient with themselves, others and life in general.‎ So go ahead, sign up for that amateur orchestra, dust off your old trombone(长号)or take your first real six-string down from the attic(阁楼); get out there and play!‎ ‎29. Why are so many people paying a lot of money to get their children the music teaching?‎ ‎ A. All of them and their children like music very much ‎ B. They want to increase their children’s IQ ‎ C. They know to learn an instrument takes years ‎ D. They want their children to become great musicians.‎ ‎30. Which of the following is true in the author’s opinion?‎ ‎ A. Playing the violin can help increase a person’s IQ most.‎ ‎ B. The piano is the most important instrument ‎ C. People like the trombone the most ‎ D. Playing the accordion can help read music ‎31. What Shinichi Suzuki says means_____‎ A. every child has natural talent for music B. all people can understand and read music C. it is too late for an adult to start an instrument D. the progress in learning an instrument depends on natural gifts ‎32. What is mainly discussed in the material?‎ ‎ A. Whether we must attend Childish ‎ B. The people’s interest in musical instruments ‎ C. The importance of music in development ‎ D. How to send our children to music schools D Dances suit to the tastes of the general public. When you look round the world, all kinds of dance performances are being offered. There competitions that claim to be a World Cup or World Championship, and the young dancer or the dance teacher who wants to enter his students might be quite confused. Which is which? Which is of high standard and good quality, and which is not worth going to? First of all it has clearly got to be distinguished between the different styles of dance and the purpose of such competitions. When a person wants to learn classical ballet, he or she would never dream of going to a ballroom teacher. Such a teacher might even have been world champion in his ballroom dancing, but he would definitely not be qualified in teaching proper classical ballet.‎ People in Britain and the USA are taking more interest in modern dance. Dance classes of all kinds are popular; the audiences going to watch modern dance companies are also larger. And perhaps the most popular modern dance company in Britain is the Ballet Rambert.‎ The Ballet Rambert is Britains’ oldest established dance company which began in 1926. In the 60s the company lacked the money to go on staging big productions. The directors wanted to encourage new talent and to keep up their high standards. A change ‎ of direction was necessary. They decide to give the ballet a “new look” in 1966. The aim was to provide a chance for new talent-for musicians and designers as well as dancers—and to show dance as a contemporary art form. And although some of the company’s previous fans dislike the change, new audiences came to see the productions.‎ The modern dance pieces and modern music found unexpected popularity. In the 21st century the Ballet Rambert was a great success in London’s West End. The company became a focus for new, progressive talent in the art.‎ Then, the Ballet Ramvert started to introduce young people to modern dance by giving performances at schools, which again was a success.‎ The Ballet Rambert has managed to make modern dance popular while creating original and often avant-garde(标新立异)productions. It can claim to be the oldest dance company in Britain and at the same time one of the most modern!‎ ‎33. Where will you go if you want to learn classical ballet?‎ ‎ A. We’d better go to a ballroom teacher B. We’d better go to a qualified school ‎ B. We’d better go to a world champion D. We’d better go to the Ballet Rambert ‎34. What is the meaning of the underlined phrase “new talent” in Paragraph 3?‎ ‎ A. skilled young dancers B. new programs ‎ C. new audiences D. avant-garde productions ‎35. What is the best title of this material?‎ ‎ A. Something about the modern dancers B. The knowledge of new modern dancers ‎ C. The development of the Ballet Rambert D. The introduction of dance performances 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项 ‎ ___36 In one class a student dipped her feet in ink and made a painting out of footprints while in another, the same girl blueprinted a very beautiful landscape. 37 ‎ ‎ In spite of their sharp contrast(强烈的反差), the two paintings both en gaged me. 38 “A journey of a thousand being miles begins with a single step.” and the landscape reflected one’s ambition and great expectation. What makes perfect depends on the attitude “It is little things that matter most.” Success cannot be achieved without being down-to-earth but it demands more than that. 39 Nevertheless, great expectation will one day eventually shine as brightly as the stars in the smooth ocean of sky only if we hold sheer persistence.‎ ‎ ___40 The paintings let me know massive prospect with pure persistence will ultimately make your dream shine into reality, but you must focus immediately on the actions you can take today, even if they are small ones.‎ A. The two pictures reflected the girl’s good ideals(理想).‎ B. As a saying goes, action speak louder than words.‎ C. The first painting reminded me of an old Chinese saying.‎ D. To make each day count far outweighs(远超过)to make a big wish E. Both classes were so impressive that one would have an absorbed sense.‎ F.

In the survey, many students were asked to complete a questionnaire. The questionnaire is about what they think leads to their being overweight.

An equal number of students say the reason is probably that they are supplied with too much fatty and rich diet, which makes them what they are now. ‎ Twenty-five percent of the students interview claim that it is the family genes that are to blame.
