    Difficult times often bring out the best in people. Many well-known people come to help those who are in trouble. And this was the case for basketball player Yao Ming. He hosted a television show in Shanghai and raised US $ 300,000 to help researchers (研究员) find a medical cure. Fund-raising, or charity, is an act of goodwill(好意) towards others.
    Charities in the West have more ways. Look at a typical day for Ruth, a rich woman in the UK, for example. Ruth wakes up in the morning and collects her post. There’s a letter addressed to her with a picture of a half-dead, beaten(筋疲力尽的) horse. It’s from a charity asking Ruth to donate money to save the animals. She turns on the television, and sees a picture of a wide–eyed child dying of hunger in Africa with a request (请求) for money to help the child. The tickets for the charity shows often cost her a lot of money, but she doesn’t mind because most of the money is going to a charity that fights AIDS. She feels good about going because she’s helping the sick.
    Edna, a little old lady, looks after a second-hand shop—a charity shop. Any profit (收益) it has made goes to a cancer(癌症) charity. Now that she doesn’t have to work, she has lots of time to offer her services for free.
    For people like Yao Ming, Ruth and Edna, charity is a virtue (美德) that holds the same importance in life as faith and hope. “As you look back on your life, the moments that stand out are the moments when you have done things for others,” said Scottish writer Henry Drummond.
    【小题1】Yao Ming hosted a television show to _____.
    A．make more moneyB．raise money for his basket team
    C．make himself more famousD．raise money for researchers to find a cure for SARS
    【小题2】We can infer (推断)from the passage that _____.
    A．Edna may not be a rich lady but she is willing to do something for others
    B．Ruth is angry because she has been asked to donate too much money
    C．Ruth leads a busy life and she feels very tired
    D．Yao Ming wants to be a television host
    【小题3】Which of the following is TRUE?
    A．Only Yao Ming, Ruth and Edna try their best to do things for charity.
    B．Ruth has given a lot of support to charity although she is not very rich.
    C．The writer hopes that more people can do things for charity.
    D．Edna is very rich because she has her own shop.
    【小题4】One morning, Ruth received a letter with a picture of a horse in it because _____.
    A．she lost her horse
    B．a charity wanted her to donate some money
    C．she loved horse very much
    D．she wanted to keep a horse as a pet
    【小题5】The underlined(划线) part in the last paragraph probably means that _____.
    A．what impresses people deeply is what they have done for others
    B．when you want to do something for others, you need stand out
    C．the moment you stand out, you can do something for others
    D．when you look back sometimes, you need stand out

    Have you heard of Chen Binqiang in Zhejiang Province? Over the past six years, he has taken care of his mother who got Alzheimer’s disease.

    Chen’s mother, 64-year-old Chen Yueguang, has been ill since 2007. The illness became very serious quickly and she has lost the ability to speak and can not look after herself. None of Chen’s other family members, however, could take care of their sick mother. Chen’s father died in a traffic accident when he was eight, his two sisters married far away and his wife has a 92-year-old grandmother to look after. 

    Chen taught Chinese in Central School of Lengshui town, which is about 30 kilometers away from his home in Pan’an. So he spent five days at school and only went home on weekends. When he said he would take his mother to work, even his wife was doubtful and worried. She really doesn’t think it is a good idea for him to take care of his mother in school. She worries what if he lost his job because of this.

    But Chen has made the decision. Soon he was putting a safety hat onto his mother’s head and helping her sit on his electric bike’s back seat. He thinks that his mother used to take him around and now he should take her.

    These days, things got a little easier for him. With the help of Pan’an government, Chen got a new job in Pan’an Middle School in October 2012. The new school is only five minutes’ ride from his home, which means he can take care of his mother more conveniently.

    Chen feels happiest when his mother is looking at him. She must have forgotten who he is, and she even can’t call his name. But she surely knows that Chen is kind to her. He feels that is enough.

    On February 19th, 2013, Chen got the prize for Touching China, held by China Central Television to honor those whose performances have moved the people.

    1. What does Chen Binqiang do? He is ___________,

    A．a farmer          B．a driver           C．a postman         D．a teacher

    2.The word “doubtful” in Paragraph 3 means ________.

    A．疑惑             B．明白             C．预料             D．支持

    3. How did Chen take her mother to his school?

    A．In his car.                             B．In a taxi.

    C．By electric bike.                        D．On foot.

    4. The passage mainly tells us _______.

    A．people will live a very hard life if our parents become seriously ill

    B．it should be allowed to take care of our mothers at work places

    C．a man who shows loving care for his mother and his great spirit

    D．Touching China honors people whose performances move us
