【题目】 Famous and rich people can usually afford a nice home, a comfortable bed and delicious food. But on November 15, 2015, two famous people called Dickinson and Burke slept outside on the ground in only sleeping bags. That night, it was cold and the temperature dropped to zero degree.
Dickinson is a famous host from a TV show. Burke is a manager of a hockey (曲棍球 ) team. Both of them have plenty of money and can afford nice houses.
They slept in such a hard condition to help raise money for Covenant House, which provides shelter (居所) to homeless kids in Toronto and other big Canadian cities. During the long cold night, Dickinson couldn’t stay warm and finally gave up sleeping. “I think staying awake is a good choice at this point. I have a backache just after a few hours’ lying on the hard ground. Imagine how kids feel after weeks on the street?” she said.
There are about 10,000 homeless kids who have to live on the street during the year in Toronto, according to a report from Covenant House. The organization helps about 3,500 homeless kids every year.
The “sleep out” has brought business leaders and popular stars into the street for one night. The fundraising(募捐) event took place in Toronto, Vancouver and ten other Covenant House locations(场所) in Canada and the U. S.
Thanks to the “sleep out”, millions of money was raised during the event.

文章大意:文章主要讲的是一个著名的节目主持人Dickson和一个曲棍球队的经理这两个名人睡在气温零度以下户外地上的睡袋里来体验寒冷,为一个叫Covenant House的组织募集资金,这个组织为在多伦多和加拿大其他大城市的无家可归的孩子提供住所,这个组织每年帮助大约3500个孩子。
【1】细节理解题。根据文章第一段中的“on November 15, 2015, two famous people called Dickinson and Burke slept outside on the ground in only sleeping bags”“2015年11月15日,两个叫Dickinson和Burke的名人睡在只有睡袋的外面的地上”可知,Dickinson在2015年11月15人住在地上,故选C。
【2】细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“Burke is a manager of a hockey (曲棍球 ) team”“Burke是一个曲棍球队的经理”可知,Burke是一名经理,故选D。
【3】细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的“They slept in such a hard condition to help raise money for Covenant House, which provides shelter (居所) to homeless kids in Toronto and other big Canadian cities”“他们睡在如此艰苦的环境中,为Covenant House筹款,Covenant House为多伦多和加拿大其他大城市的无家可归的孩子提供庇护所”可知,Covenant House为无家可归的孩子提供住所,所以它是一个慈善机构,故选C。
【4】细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的“Dickinson couldn’t stay warm and finally gave up sleeping”“Dickinson无法保暖,最后放弃了睡觉”可知,在2015年11月15日Dickinson冷的无法睡觉,所以A说法Dickinson睡得好是错误的;B说法Dickinson太冷了而无法睡觉是正确的;根据文章第四段中的“There are about 10,000 homeless kids who have to live on the street during the year in Toronto”“多伦多一年中大约有1万无家可归的孩子不得不住在街上”可知,在多伦多有3500个无家可归的孩子是错误的;多伦多一年中大约有1万无家可归的孩子不得不住在街上,不是美国,所以D说法是错误的,故选B。
【5】词句猜测题。根据文章最后一段中的“The fundraising(募捐) event took place in Toronto”“募捐发生在多伦多”和后面的“ten other Covenant House locations(场所) in Canada and the U. S.”“在加拿大和美国的十个其他的Covenant House地点”可推知,Vancouver是一个地方的名字,a name of a place一个地方的名字;a name of a person一个人的名字;a name of an organization一个组织的名字;a name of a club一个俱乐部的名字,故选A。
