It started when Adam Braun studied in a college. He was visiting India when a boy stopped him and a3for money on the street. Mr. Braun asked the boy w4 he would want, if he could have anything in the world.

“I thought the answer was going to be ‘a house’ or ‘a car’ or ‘a boat’. His answer was ‘a pencil’. So I gave him my pencil and he was very h5 and excited. I realized he had never been to s6 before, and that was the reality (现实) for 57 million children around the world,” Braun said.

Adam Braun started working in finance (金融) after he graduated from college, but he n7 forgot the boy and the problem he realized.

“We live in a world in which every child can have a chance to get a good education, because we have everything necessary already. We are a8 to educate every child. So I promised to help create that world,” Braun said.

Mr. Braun has r9 money for his project. He paid for building the first Pencils of Promise School in Laos five years ago. S10 then, his organization has helped pay for more than 200 schools in the countryside of Laos and Ghana.

9raised

10since

【解析】这篇短文给我们讲述的是Adam Braun先生建立了一个组织,在世界各地建立学校,让每个孩子都能有上学的机会。

1句意:它的目的是确保所有的孩子都能有机会学习得更好。chance机会,是一个名词,根据下文We live in a world in which every child can have a chance to get a good education, because we have everything necessary already.可知,Braun先生想让每个孩子都有上学的机会。因此这里填chance。

2句意:在2014年这个组织每90个小时就在某地方建立一个新的学校。builtbuild的过去式,根据文意可知,Braun先生建立的组织是在世界各地建立学校,让每个孩子都有上学的机会。句中In 2014是一个过去的时间,故这里填过去式built。

3句意:他在印度参观,这时在大街上一个小男孩叫住他,给他要钱。ask问,要求,这里ask for要求得到某物,是一个固定短语。根据文意可知,这里描述的是过去的事情,因此应填过去式asked。

4句意:Braun先生问这个小孩如果他能拥有世界上的任何东西,那么他想要什么。what什么,引导一个宾语从句,在从句中作want的宾语。

5句意:所以我把我的铅笔给了他,他非常的开心、兴奋。happy开心的,快乐的,是一个形容词。根据上文His answer was ‘a pencil’. So I gave him my pencil…可知,这个男孩想要一支铅笔,Braun先生把自己的铅笔给了他,所以他非常的开心,故填happy,和后面的形容词excited是并列的。

6句意:我意识到他以前从来没有上过学,那也是世界上57,000,000孩子们面对的现实。school学校,是一个名词。根据上文的内容可知,那个男孩在大街上要钱,再根据下文Braun先生筹集钱建学校可知,这个男孩没有上过学,故应先school。

7句意:Adam Braun毕业后开始从事金融的工作,但是他从来没有忘记那个男孩以及他意识到的问题。never从不,从来没有,是一个否定的意思。根据下文We are a___8___ to educate every child. So I promised to help create that world可知,Braun先生没有忘记他意识到的事情,他想给孩子们建立学校,让他们都能上学。故填never。

8句意:我们能够教育每个孩子。able能,会,这里be able to是固定短语,能,会。

9句意:Braun先生为他的项目筹集钱。raise筹集,是一个动词。空前has是助动词,这句话使用的是现在完成时态,故这里填过去分词raised。

10句意:从那以后,他的组织出钱在老挝和加纳的农村建立了200多个学校。since自从,这里since then是一个固定短语,从那以后。

【题目】Each summer, you hear news that some sports players are sent to hospitals because it is too hot. Our bodies can’t be outside in the sun for a long time. So in hot summers, be careful about playing sports outside.

Firstly, to play sports safely in hot weather, you must drink water. Sports drinks are great for athletes, but they have so much sugar that they’ll dehydrate(使脱水)you more. However, drinking a

few bottles of sports drinks will be good for you.

Secondly, be sure to take enough breaks to let your body rest. If your coach doesn’t let you do so in the heat, don’t wait until you feel uncomfortable. Just be honest with your coach when you need breaks.

Thirdly, when you have a break, don’t sit in the sun. With the sun beating down on you, you’ll only heat up and sweat(冒汗)more. Take a seat under a tree, or even better, go indoors for a little while.

Cooling yourself down can help you stay active longer.

Fourthly, remember that the earlier in the day you start your exercise, the cooler it will be. If you can start practice before the sun comes up, you have a few good hours to practice in the cool hours of the morning. Also, the earlier you practice, the earlier you can finish the exercise. If you need more practice time, come back to the field later in the evening when the sun is setting.

Last but not least, you should watch your food. Eat food which is high in water, starch(淀粉)and

carbohydrate(糖类), but be sure to get a good balance in your diet.

As long as you pay attention to the above, playing sports safely in the heat isn’t a difficult thing.

How to keep 1when playing sports in summer

Facts

Some people do exercise 2 in the sun for long in hot summer.

Some sports players are sent to hospitals because the3is too high.

4

Drink water and play sports safely. But too many bottles of sports drinks may do

5to you.

Take enough 6 during summer exercise. When you feel uncomfortable, let your coach know right now.

7sit in the sun when you have a rest. You’d better sit under a tree or go indoors for a while, which may help you keep active longer.

Choose a proper time for practice. Remember to exercise as8 as possible to enjoy exercising on cool summer mornings. Sunset is a good choice as well.

Be careful with your9and have a balanced diet.

Conclusion

The more you pay attention to the10 , the safer you will be while playing outside in the heat!

【题目】Have you ever run into a careless mobile phone user on the street? Perhaps they were busy talking, texting or checking updates on WeChat without looking at what was going on around them. As the number of this new “species(物种)” of human has kept rising, they have been given a new namephubbers.

Recently, a cartoon created by students from China Central Academy of Fine Arts put this group of people under the spotlight(聚光灯). In the short film, phubbers with different social identities always put themselves in their phones. A doctor plays with his mobile phone while letting his patient die, a pretty woman takes selfie(自拍照) in front of a car accident site(场地), and a father loses his child without knowing about it while using his mobile phone. A chain of similar events finally leads to the destruction(毁灭) of the world.

Although the ending sounds overstated(夸张), the damage(损害)that phubbing can bring is real.

Your health is the first to bear(承受) the effect and result of it. “Constantly(不断地) bending(使弯曲) your head to check your telephone could damage your neck,” Guangming Daily quoted(引述) doctors as saying, “the neck is like a rope that breaks after long-term stretching(伸展).” Also, staring(盯着) at telephones for long periods of time will damage your eyesight gradually, according to the report.

But that’s not all. Being a phubber could also damage your social skills and drive you away from your friends and family. At reunions(团聚)with family or friends, many people tend to stare at their telephones while others are chatting happily with each other and this creates a strange atmosphere, Qilu Evening News reported.

It can also cost you your life. There have been lots of reports on phubbers who fell to their death, suffered accidents, and were robbed of their telephones in broad daylight.

1What does the underlined word phubbers mean in Chinese? _________.

A. 低头族 B. 打工族 C. 月光族 D. 啃老族

2For what purpose does the author(作者) give the example of a cartoon in Para.2? _____.

A. To warn doctors against using telephones while treating patients

B. To show the world will finally be destroyed by phubbers

C. To advertise the cartoon made by students

D. To tell people the bad influence of phubbing

3Which of the following is NOT a risk a phubber may have? _________.

A. He might get divided from his friends and family

B. His neck and eyesight will be gradually harmed

C. He will cause the destruction of the world

D. His social skills could be influenced

4Which of the following may be the author’s attitude(态度) towards phubbing? _________.

A. Supportive B. Against C. Active D. Favorable

5What may the passage talk about next? _________.

A. Advice on how to use a telephone B. Ways to reduce(减少) the risks of phubbing

C. Results of phubbing D. People are crazy about phubbing
