Buy One Give One
Buy One Give One (BIG1) is a Singapore-based business and non-profit organization with a job to create a world full of giving. We help businesses around the world give back in meaningful ways so that they can create measurable and long-lasting influence. Since 2007, we have worked with more than 1,600 businesses creating more than 88 million giving activities.
Our business allows consumers, who may feel disconnected from the problems of the developing world, to become involved in social problems while still purchasing (购买)tor themselves. For example, shoe brands like TOMS promise to donate one pair of shoes for every pair purchased. Soapbox gives soap to a needy child with every purchase. Watch company WeWood plants a tree every time you buy a watch. They have helped socially-conscious consumers purchase products and feel good about providing help to others.
See what some of our members say about being a part of BIG1.
*Karen Ormerod
Every product purchased at our store influences the lives of disadvantaged people in the world. I had never imagined I would be operating a business that could change people's lives. We are making a real difference by just doing what normally do. It is a wonderful experience.

What a good way of giving resources to where they need to be giving people the gifts of giving, and adding value to organizations along the wav. We have already made 160,000 giving activities through BIGI. Giving has become a necessary part of our everyday business. It's truly brilliant.

【题目】阅读填句:根据短文内容,从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项.
Lack of motivation drags people down in their language learning and high motivation pulls them up.
Reward yourself after each hour of concentrated study.
After each hour reward yourself in whatever way is most appealing. Here are some common 5-minute rewards. A cup of coffee, a quick phone call, a short bike ride, 5 minutes of TV sport, walking the dog, etc.
Remove distractions.
Listening to songs in the foreign language while you have a food break could make you feel still on target while stopping the distraction of hunger.
Some of the ideas students report for keeping themselves motivated go beyond just the language. Here are two ideas. I try to cook Spanish food. To feed interest in the country, I look at posters, pictures, articles, books.
Look for motivation in the wider world
Keep your interest alive by watching movies, and taking time to have contact with native speakers. You can provide conversation in Chinese for overseas students, and in exchange they spend an hour another day talking their language with you. If you combine this with lunch then it doesn't even take extra time.
A. Acknowledge your weaknesses. |

How to Prepare for an Exam
There's no need to be tense (紧张的) or cram (死记硬背). By doing a couple simple things ahead you can ensure that you are confident and ready for anything that comes up on the test.
After you have taken notes from studying all of your material including the book and your notes, use that information to make flash cards. Turn statements into questions
Quiz yourself. Once everything is written down on flashcards, quiz yourself with the cards. Keep reviewing the questions that you get wrong until you get them right. You can carry flashcards around with you and quiz yourself when you're on the subway or riding in the car. Definitely continue to quiz yourself until you get them all right.
Do practice questions. Practice doing the questions in the book that you were assigned for homework. Do extra questions in the back of the book. Re-do questions that you got wrong, and try to figure out why you got them wrong. Do practice questions until you feel more comfortable with subject matter.
On the day of the exam, set your alarm at least two hours before the test. Scientists believe that a good night's rest is the key to better test scores. An hour and a half before the exam, start running through all the themes and sub-topics in your head. Like always, check your notes if you get stuck. Use your flashcards to help you commit all the tiny details to memory if they're not already memorized. If you're given yourself enough time to study, you should feel well prepared and relaxed.
A. Goon a balanced diet.
B. Take exercise and keep it up.
C. Make flash cards.
D. This is especially helpful for subjects such as math.
E. You might quiz yourself for a half hour or so, then take a break
F. Stop studying at least 15 minutes before the exam, but an hour is preferable.
G. Preparing for an exam can be stressful and time-consuming, but it doesn't have to be.

Johannes Gutenberg--the ploneer of the printing press
Johannes Gutenberg was chosen to be the most important figure of the past millennium(千年) by the media(媒体). You may not be familiar with him.Gutenberg is praised for having invented the printing press and therefore preparing the way for printing books.
He was born into a wealthy family in the city of Mainz, Germany. His early training was in goldsmithing. In 1428, he moved to Strasbourg and lived there for almost 20 years.Gutenberg used his skills in metalwork for the mass(大批量) production of books.That means that each copy of the Catholic bible(圣经) and all of its 73 books were painstakingly handwritten by men. Gutenberg fashioned a font(字体) of over 300 characters, far larger than the fonts of today. To make this possible, he invented the variable-width mold(模具) and perfected the mixture of materials used by type factories up to the present century.
The between 1450 and 1455,while preparing to produce a large Latin Bible, Gutenberg is thought to have printed a number of smaller books, a calendar, and a papal Letter of Indulgence. The Bible of 42 Lines, the oldest surviving printed book in the Western world, was completed by August 15,1456.
The invention of the modem printing press changed the way information was delivered.Even today in the computer age, we rely heavily on the printed word or text for instruction, information, and for the pleasure of reading literature.
A. Gutenberg made the world a much richer place
B. But he has certainly influenced your life in some ways
C. Gutenberg's idea was one of the greatest of all mankind
D. By 1450, Gutenberg was back in Mainz at work on a printing press
E. In fact, this invention contributed a lot of educating the masses(大众) worldwide
F. Before the spread of Gutenberg's idea, books were primarily handwritten
G. It was in Strasbourg that he probably made his first experiments with moveable type and printing

【题目】阅读理解
China is a land of bicycles. At least it was back in 1992 when I traveled the country. Back then everyone seemed to be riding a bicycle. Millions of them, all black. Cars were rare. Yet since my arrival in Beijing last year, I've found the opposite is true. There are millions of cars. However, people still use their bicycles to get around. For many, it's the easiest and cheapest way to travel today. Bicycles also come in different colors --- silver, green, red, blue, yellow, whatever you want.
It's fun watching people biking. They rush quickly through crossroads, move skillfully through traffic, and ride even on sidewalks. Bicycles allow people the freedom to move about that cars just can't provide.
Eager to be part of this aspect of Chinese culture, I decided to buy a bicycle. Great weather accompanied my great buy. I immediately jumped up on my bicycle seat and started home.
My first ride home was orderly (守秩序的). To be safe, I stayed with a “pack” of bikers while cars on the streets came running swiftly out of nowhere at times. I didn't want to get hit. So I took the ride carefully.
Crossing the streets was the biggest problem. It was a lot like crossing a major highway back in the United States. The streets here were wide, so crossing took time, skill and a little bit of luck.
I finally made it home. The feeling on the bicycle was amazing. The air hitting my face and going through my hair was wonderful. I was sitting on top of the world as I passed by places and people. Biking made me feel alive.
(1)According to the author, why are bicycles still popular in China today?
A.Because they are traditional and safe.
B.Because they are convenient and inexpensive.
C.Because they are colorful and available.
D.Because they are fast and environment friendly.
(2)The author decided to buy a bicycle because he intended __________.
A.to ride it for fun
B.to use it for transport
C.to experience local culture
D.to improve his riding skills
(3)How did the author feel about his street crossing?
A.It was boring.
B.It was difficult.
C.It was lively.
D.It was wonderful.
(4)Which of the following best describes the author's biking experience
A.The author enjoyed showing off his biking skills.
B.The author was annoyed by the air while riding.
C.The author was praised by the other bikers.
D.The author took great pleasure in biking.
