The young boy was sitting on the ground in the refugee(难民) camp playing with an empty tin. Other children were standing around watching him with envious eyes.

Envy? Of an empty tin?

This tin was indeed no worthless piece of trash—it was a splendid truck, complete with wheels and grille(铁栅) and floor. The vehicle even had remote control, a frayed piece of string from the “engine” to the hand of the owner.

The tin had lost all its original markings. But its first load had probably been sardines(沙丁鱼). Later the tin had been left with other rubbish behind the refugee camp clinic, and the boy had found it on one of his daily expeditions into the “big world”.

For thousands of refugee children, a tin 1ike this rates high on their list of wants. It can be used for many purposes, as jewellery, as a toy, for drinking or as a medicine box.

Many refugee children would consider it the happiest day of their lives if they received a handful of marbles(弹珠) as a present.

They dream of gifts which children in developed countries take for granted.Maybe a book to read, or a pencil and an exercise book of their very own.

Their imagination can create toys,but it cannot create books.Someone else must provide them.A more costly and valuable gift they cannot imagine.

1.How do you think the young boy may feel when he gets something to read?

A. depressed. B. frustrated.

C. excited. D. frightened.

2.Other children envied the young boy because the boy ________.

A.had something to play with

B.got some sardines to eat

C.received a handful of marbles

D.had a real truck toy

3.What is implied in the last paragraph of the text?

A.The society should donate(捐) some toys for the refugee children.

B.The refugee children are more imaginative rather than creative.

C.The refugee children are more creative rather than imaginative.

D.The society should offer the refugee children things for study.

4.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A.An Enviable Toy Present B. Sardine Tin—A Precious Toy

C.A Splendid Truck Toy D.A Poor Refugee Cam

On Saturday 17 September 2016, you may catch sight of hundreds of apes(猩猩) running around the streets of London. They’ll have been filming a new Planet of the Apes movie, you’ll probably think. But in fact, when the starter’s pistol sounds for the Great Gorilla Run next year, this highly popular event will have been raising money for thirteen years. People from all over the world will run, jog or walk 8 km in gorilla costumes through the capital’s streets, passing such iconic landmarks as The Tower of London and St Paul’s Cathedral. By the time the last ape crosses the finishing line, the runners will have raised millions for endangered species and education projects in Central Africa.

Unusual charity events such as these are a huge trend for raising money for worthwhile causes. If, however, you’re looking to really like the idea of running through mud and freezing cold ice, then The Tough Mudder is perhaps what you’ve been searching for. In this difficult and tiring team event, participants finish a 10 to 12-mile barrier course that tests physical strength and mental courage. It’s more about friendship than winning. Over 150 such events worldwide have raised £5 million.

But fundraising doesn’t have to involve physical effort. Students at a school in Illinois played Justin Bieber’s song ‘Baby’ over loudspeakers and urged fellow students to pay to stop the song. They needed to raise $1,000 in one week to achieve this. Beyond expectations, they exceeded(超过) the goal within three days. Even teachers chipped in.

If you want to join the ranks of gorillas next September, you only have to pay £60 to register. This includes the gorilla suit, which you can keep. If you take part, not only will you have been helping the gorillas and people who depend on their habitat, you’ll never have to buy another set of fancy clothes again!

1.What is the Great Gorilla Run held for?

A. To film a new Planet of the Apes.

B. To collect money for Central Africa.

C. To make a study of the origin of man.

D. To enjoy famous senic spots in London.

2.What can we learn about the Tough Mudder?

A. It is disgusting.B. It is unique.

C. It is competitive.D. It is challenging.

3.What does the phrase “chipped in” in the third paragraph refer to?

A. Joined in singing.B. Made a contribution.

C. Scolded the organizers.D. Interrupted the activity.

4.Which can be a suitable title for the passage?

A. Going Crazy for Charity!

B. Protecting Our Rare Animals!

C. Competing in Unusual Events!

D. Watching Out for Aggressive Animals!
