    20．Michael，Rae，Jequita，Alice，Sarah and Phyllis have at least one thing in common：They all love animals so much that they're driven to volunteer regularly at the Romulus Animal Shelter．
    The six Romulus-area residents give as much time as they can to perform various tasks at the shelter，help make life more comfortable for the dogs and cats that stay there and do their best to find permanent homes for the stray（流浪）pets．
    The shelter，at 12300 Wayne Road，opened in June 2011and operates on money raised in the community．To date，bingos and other fundraising activities have brought in more than＄177.000，according to community leader William Wadsworth，but a tight budget requires the efforts of volunteers to make ends meet．
    "Without their help，this building would not be an outstanding place，"Wadsworth said．"Their time and devotion is beyond what I ever expected．And I thank them all．"
    The volunteers work at the direction of two animal control officers，Annie Hall and Kim Ratcliff，who spend much of their day patrolling（巡逻）the city and housing stray dogs and cats．The two，both with 32 years of experience，count on the public to be the eyes and cars of the shelter．They are also responsible for addressing complaints and taking care of the shelter．
    That's where the volunteers come in．They take photos of the animals and post them on Facebook and other websites for adoption．They clean cages，play with the animals，feed and bathe the pets and take the dogs for walks．They pick up supplies and even clean the restrooms．
    "We couldn't do it without them，"said Ratcliff．"They come in and go right to work．We depend on them a lot．They help run the place，"added Hall．

    A．To raise enough money for the stray pets．
    B．To advertise for the Romulus Animal Shelter．

    B．Because it has too many stray pets．
    C．Because there are only 2 animal control officers．

    64．A  细节理解题 根据倒数第二段They take photos of the animals and post them on Facebook and other websites for adoption．They clean cages，play with the animals，feed and bathe the pets and take the dogs for walks．They pick up supplies and even clean the restrooms．可知，巡逻不是志愿者的工作，故答案为A
    65．D 推理判断题 由文章最后一段We couldn't do it without them，"said Ratcliff．"They come in and go right to work．We depend on them a lot．They help run the place，"added Hall．可知，志愿者的工作得到了高度的评价，故答案为D

    点评 做阅读时经常犯错的主要原因是，仅凭读过文章后残留在脑海中的一丝印象来勾选答案，这样便很容易掉入出题人故意设布下的题目陷阱．所谓阅读理解，对于题目的理解一定要忠实于原文，因此，每一道题都应该与原文作全面的对比与核查，再得出答案．也就是说，阅读理解的每一道题目，在原文都应该有明确的出处，我们把这一出处叫做原文相关句，（1）排除与原文相关句主题不一致的选项（2）排除与原文相关句态度相反的选项  （3）排除用于过于极端或负面的选项（4）注意结合文章主旨和主题去排除．

    8．Dear Daisy，
    Phew!I'm so glad that day is over．I was so worried all summer that my first day at my new school would be terrible．
    I'm really tired，but my first day at school went well and I feel much better now．
    First of all，we had to meet outside the school building．I was very nervous because my primary school only had 300 pupils but in the secondary school there are about 1，300．What a difference!The older pupils are really big．I felt so small waiting there in front of the school．
    The other problem was that I didn't know anyone．My family moved over the summer holidays，because of Dad's new job．So now I have to try to make some new friends．Standing in front of the school this morning，I wanted to be back at my old school with my old friends．
    The head teacher came out and told us to go into the school hall．Then he called our names out to tell us which class we were in．My class teacher is called Mrs．Black．She took us to our classroom．It's on the 5th floor and …guess what？…We aren't allowed to use the lift．I couldn't believe it．
    When we were walking up all the stairs I started talking to another boy who didn't know anyone．He said his family had moved from Hong Kong over the summer．He seemed really nice so we sat together when we got to our classroom，out of breath!He said his English was very poor but I thought it was really good．
    We spent all morning with Mrs．Black looking at our timetables．Everyone in the school has a different timetable-can you believe it？Half of the school is learning Spanish as a second language and the other half learns French．I'm in the Spanish group，which sounds like fun．I'm worried that I'll forget my timetable and go to the wrong room!How will anyone help me if nobody else has the same timetable as me？
    Lunchtime was OK．After lunch we started lessons．I had maths，which was complicated and difficult and then history，where we started to learn about ancient Greece．That looks interesting．I have to do some homework tonight to find out how the ancient Greek people lived．
    So far so good．I'm quite looking forward to tomorrow，even though I've got science．I hate science!

    But one day Mom changed our world forever．She came home，turned off the TV，sat us down and said："You boys are going to read two books every week．And you're going to write me a report on what you read．"We complained about how unfair it was．Besides，we didn't have any books in the house other than Mom's Bible．But she explained："I'll drive you to the library．"So pretty soon the two boys were driven to Detroit Public Library in her white 1950 old car．I wandered reluctantly among the children's books．I loved animals，so when I saw some books that seemed to be about animals，I started leafing through them．

    Now my older brother is an engineer and I am chief of pediatric neurosurgery（神经外科） at John Hopkins Children's Center in Baltimore．Sometimes I still can't believe my life's journey，from a failing student to this position，which takes me all over the world to teach and perform critical surgery．

    12．When I was a kid in Minnesota，watermelon was expensive．One of my father's friends，Bernie，was a rich businessman，who owned a large store in St．Paul．
    Every summer，when the first watermelons arrived，Bernie would call．Dad and I would go to Bernie's place．We would sit on the edge of the dock（码头），feet dangling（摇晃），and got ready for a big meal．
    Bernie would take his knife，cut our first watermelon，hand us both a big piece and sit down next to us．Then we'd bury our faces in watermelon，eating only the heart-the reddest，juiciest，firmest，sweetest，most seed-free part-and throw away the rest．
    Bernie was my father's idea of a rich man．I always thought it was because he was such a successful businessman．Years later，I realized that it was not Bernie's wealth itself but his way of dealing with it that my father liked．Bernie knew how to stop working，get together with friends and eat only the heart of the watermelon．
    What I learned from Bernie is that being rich is a state of mind．Some of us，no matter how much money we have，will never be free enough to eat only the heart of the watermelon．If you don't take the time to dangle your feet over the dock and enjoy life's small pleasure，your work is probably hurting your life．
    For many years，I forgot that lesson I'd learned as a kid on the loading dock．I was too busy making all the money I could．
    Well，I've relearned it．I hope I have time left to enjoy the success of others and to take pleasure in the day．That's the heart of the watermelon．I have learned again to throw the rest away．

    A．relaxed         B．worried         C．hungry         D．proud
    67．How did the writer and his father eat the watermelon？B

    C．They ate every part of it                D．They shared only one piece．
    68．In the eyes of the writer's father，BernieC．
    A．was just a rich businessman           
    B．worked hard all the time
    C．lived a rich but healthy life            
    D．knew how to make money
    69．The underlined part"the heart of the watermelon"in the last paragraph refers toD．
