I took my 9-year-old daughter, Suzan and 5-year-old son, Robbie to the shopping centre. As we got there,we saw a big sign that said, “Petting Zoo”. The kids jumped up and asked, “Daddy, can we go?”

Both my wife and I were out of work. However, I said, “Sure”, giving them a quarter each. They went away, leaving only fifty cents left in my pocket.

A petting zoo is made up of a hundred of little baby animals of all kinds. Kids pay their money and stay in the enclosure(围场)pleased with the little animals while their parents shop.

A few minutes later, I saw Suzan walking along behind me, I was surprised and asked what was wrong.

She said sadly, “Well, Daddy, a ticket for Petting Zoo costs fifty cents. So I gave Robbie my quarter.” Then she said the most beautiful thing I ever heard. She repeated the family motto(座右铭), which is “Love is Action!”

I knew clearly no one loves little animals more than Suzan. She had watched both my wife and me do and say "Love is Action!” for years, and now she had put it into her lifestyle. It had become part of her, because she knew the whole family motto. It’s not only “Love is Action”; it’s “Love is SACRIFICAL(牺牲的) Action!” Love always pays a price...

I was moved. We went back to the Petting Zoo. Suzan stood with her hands and chin(下巴)resting on the fence and just watched Robbie go crazy petting and feeding the animals. I had fifty cents burning a hole in my pocket. I put my hand into my pocket and took out the money. Sure, I must do that!

1.What would be the best headline for this passage? _______.

A. A Petting Zoo. B. Try Your Best to Help Others.

C. An Attractive Shopping Centre. D. Love Is Sacrificial Action!

2.The underlined part “the most beautiful thing” in Paragraph 5 refers to _______.

A. the Petting Zoo B. the family motto

C. their lifestyle D. the ticket for Petting Zoo

3.Which of the following best describes Suzan? _______.

C. Childish. D. Clever.

4.What might happen next according to the story? _______.

C. Suzan would play happily with the little animals.

Recently I read the Human Development Report. I couldn’t help thinking about another problem which the world is facing--hunger. According to the report, 2,400 people are dying from hunger every day; nearly 13 million in southern Africa will be worried about their food supply because of earthquakes, floods or wars.

In a word, hunger remains the biggest problem of the world today. It’s strange to see that man can travel to the moon, but still doesn’t know how to feed himself. You may ask, “Who steals our bread? The first thieves should be population growth, poverty and loss of rich farmland.

In less developed areas like South Africa, the population grows faster than the crops. It is almost impossible for its government to feed so many people and provide education for them. So it is very important to control the population growth and protect their farmland in countries whose people are suffering from hunger.

According to the report, the world’s food production is enough to feed everyone if it is given away well. But the problem is that the developed countries are eating food that should be given to the poor. Although they are just using their own earning, the fact is that they are coldly watching others starving away.

Luckily, some developed countries such as Netherlands, Norway and Sweden have done a lot to help those hungry people in African countries. We hope other developed countries will follow them.

1.According to the passage, which of the following CANNOT help to make fewer people hungry?

A. Poor countries protect their rich farmland.

B. Poor countries control their population growth.

C. Rich countries give some food to the poor ones.

D. Rich countries produce more food to feed themselves.

2.What can we learn from the fourth paragraph?

A. Poor countries are cold and going to die out.

B. Rich countries aren’t willing to help poor countries.

C. Rich countries notice the problems of the poor countries

D. Rich countries are trying their best to help poor countries.

3.Why are many people suffering from hunger in developing countries?

A. Because there are so many people.

B. Because there are so many developed countries.

C. Because there are so many natural disasters and wars.

D. Because there isn’t enough food production in the world.

4.What does the author mean in the last sentence?.

A. More countries will give help to Norway.

B. More countries will be as rich as Sweden.

C. Poor countries should learn from rich ones.

D. More rich countries will help the hungry people.

The tool doesn’t come free, however, for the price of choice is responsibility.2.The reward is happiness.

Life is not still. It is a flow.3.We constantly need to monitor where we are on our journey. We need to ask questions: Am I moving closer to my goals? If not, what corrective measures can I take?
