After the popularity of the Ice Bucket Challenge, another challenge now is hot in India. Indians give rice to their poor neighbors for a charity (慈善) which is called “Rice Bucket Challenge”. 【1】 It is about giving a bucket of rice to someone who is in need and taking a picture named “Rice Bucket Challenge” to share online. The aim of the activity is to help the poor and hungry people in India, and the movement’s Facebook page has so far clocked up more than 50,000 likes. 2 The activity was started by Manju Latha Kalanidhi, a 38-year-old journalist, who thought the Ice Bucket Challenge was a little strange. She said, “Hunger is a disease anybody would connect.” The challenge has gained a lot of support with students signing up in Indian Institute of Management, and more and more people join in it. 3

India is the world’s second-biggest rice consumer, with a storage of 21.2 million tons of the grains. 4 It has suffered with mass hunger, and last year was ranked 63rd of 78 countries on the International Food Policy Research Institute’s global hunger index. How to participate in this activity? First, pick up a bucket of rice from your home and give it to the neighboring people who are in need. 5 At last, invite online all your friends and ask them to take up the challenge. It is important to post back on Facebook because it will inspire all your friends to come forward. All the people get together and make a difference!

A. Besides, hand the rice bucket over to other people who are in need.

B. It is not an activity involving dumping a bucket of rice on someone’s head.

C. The activity raises the public awareness and charitable donations to agriculture.

D. The AirAsia India airline says its staff including senior management will join.

E. Then, take a picture and post it on facebook with “Rice Bucket Challenge”.

F. But it is far from enough for this country.

G. The initial inspiration came from the ice bucket challenge.

试题分析:本文写了米桶挑战,“米桶挑战”与“冰桶挑战”概念相似,但参加者不是要淋米,而是向有需要的人捐出一桶米,拍下照片,再向其他人发出挑战,以此来帮助需要的人。

【1】B考查对上下文的理解能力。由Rice Bucket Challenge”. It is about giving a bucket of rice to someone who is in need and taking a picture named “Rice Bucket Challenge” to share online. 可知米桶挑战不是向某个人的头上淋米,而是赠给需要的人一桶米,后文是解释米桶挑战,所以前一句是误解,所以选B。

【2】G考查对上下文的理解能力。由后文冰桶挑战的开始,可知此处是提到了冰桶挑战,所以选G。

【3】D考查对上下文的理解能力。由The challenge has gained a lot of support with students signing up in Indian Institute of Management, and more and more people join in it可以知道越来越多的人加入米桶挑战,所以D选项中也是有人加入,所以选D。

【4】F考查对上下文的理解能力。由下文可知还是有很多人在承受着饥饿,可知这个挑战不足以满足需要的人们,远远不够,所以选F。

【5】E考查对上下文的理解能力。由米桶挑战的程序可知挑战者需要拍一张照片,然后等待下一个人的挑战。所以选E。

【题目】A drunken burglar(盗贼)in the Orrell Park area of Liverpool, ended up leaping out of a window after a 10-year-old girl asked him to prove he was a superhero. The drunken thief who pretended he was Superman to stop a child raising the alarm has been caught after he leapt from the apartment building in his pants to make the girl convinced.

Thief Ethan Adamson, 25, told police that he had broken into a fifth-floor flat after a drinking session, believing it was empty. But he was horrified when the owner’s 10-year-old daughter woke up while he was there.

From his hospital bed, the thief told reporters, “To keep her quiet, I told her I was really Superman and I’d soon be flying off back to my secret headquarters.” “She called my bluff (吓唬) and told me, ‘If you’re Superman, show me you can fly or I’ll scream’ ”.

“I had no choice so I stripped to my pants to look more like a superhero and went to the window. I saw another roof below and I thought I could make it but it turned out to be a lot further down than thought. I know it doesn’t make sense but it did to me when I was drunk.”

Police later found him on the roof in just his yellow pants, covered in cuts and bruises after a baffled neighbor heard his cries of pain. He now faces seven years behind bars for burglary.

Police spokesman Frank Amado said, “He was in quite a serious state and couldn’t move until we got up there using ladders. He was treated for his injuries and we got him some fresh clothes before taking him to hospital, where he is being kept under guard until he is well enough to be arrested.”

When I was young, I lived in a place where had a lot of trees, many rivers, and was near a big lake. We had a large house with a garden and lots of grasses. My brothers and sisters and I played outside whenever we could in my own yard, in our neighbors’ yards, and in the empty yards down the street. We ride bikes and played ballgames with friends. But I always thought that there was something missing in my environment, as wonderfully as it was. I liked going to the big lake the most. Even there, though, I felt I needed anything more. The lake was big, and you could still see land on the other side.

One day, my family took trip to New York City. As we drove on the freeway, I looked out the window at the ocean. For as far as I could see, there was no land on the other side. I rolled down the window and heard from the sounds of the sea birds. They seemed to call me, tell me I would never be able to live away from the sea again.
