Greg Woodburn, a student at the University of Southern California, spends a lot of time cleaning sneakers he collected. But soon the shoes will be sent to poor children in the United States and 20 other countries, thanks to Woodburn’s Share Our Soles (S. O. S. ) charity.
A high school track star in the town of Ventura, California, Woodburn was treated in hospital for months with knee and hip injuries.
“I started thinking about the health benefits, the friendship and the confidence I got from running, ” he says, “And I realized there are children who don’t even have shoes. ”
Woodburn gathered up his old sneakers, then asked his friends to donate. His goal was to have 100 pairs by Christmas 2006. When he collected more than 500 pairs, he decided to turn the shoe drive into a year-round endeavor.
Back then, the sneakers came from donation boxes at the YMCA and the local sporting goods store and from door-to-door pickups. Woodburn has now set up collection boxes at two high schools, city gym and recreation center. He has started accepting adult sizes and sandals(凉鞋). So far, S. O. S. has collected and donated more than 3, 000 pairs.
Woodburn has cleaned all the shoes. After sorting the shoes by size, Woodburn selects the good shoes for the washing machine and the worn-out ones for recycling.
To ship the footwear, Woodburn teamed with Sports Gift, a non-profit organization that provides soccer and baseball equipment to children around the world. Keven Baxter, founder and president, says, “We’d send kids balls and shoes. I’ve heard that for many of these kids, these old sneakers are the only shoes they had. They wear them to school and to do sports. So Greg’s running shoes were a nice addition for us. ”
For many recipients(接受者), the shoes represent opportunity. Two young boys in Southern California attended school on alternate days because they shared a pair of shoes. They were too big for one boy and too small for the other. Thanks to S. O. S. , each brother received his own pair of shoes. The boys now attend school daily and enjoy their learning. When they graduate, they say, they will help a stranger, just as Woodburn helped them.
68. What caused Greg Woodburn to donate old shoes for poor children?
A. The benefits from playing sports.
B. News about some poor children.
C. His reflection on school life.
D. The medical treatment he received.
69. When collecting more sneakers than expected, Woodburn decided to_______ .
A. include adult sizes and sandals
B. set up branches in different cities
C. collect shoes throughout the year
D. expand his endeavor in the whole city
70. How did Woodburn manage to deliver the shoes collected?
A. By sending them by mail.
B. By working with Sports Gift.
C. By advertising for those in need.
D. By offering them from door to door.
71. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. An Organized Activity
B. Greg Woodburn’s Life
C. How to Collect Sneakers
D. Recycled Sneakers Fit for Sharing

George, when your big brother and your little dog and I walked you up to schools today, you
had no idea how I was feeling.
You were so excited. You had packed and unpacked your pencils and safety scissors in your backpack a dozen times. I am really going to miss those lazy mornings when we waved your brother and sister off to school.
Because you are my youngest, I had learned a few things by the time you came along. I found out that the seemingly endless days of babyhood are gone like lightning. I blinked(眨眼), and your older siblings were setting off for school as eagerly as you did this morning, I was one of the lucky ones; I could choose whether to work or not. By the time it was your turn, the shining prizes of career advancement and a double income had lost their brightness. A splash(溅水) in the pool with you in your bright red boots or "just one more" rereading of your favorite book, Frog and Toad Are Friends, meant more. You didn't go to preschool and I hope that doesn't hold you back. You learned numbers by helping me count the soda cans we returned to the store.
I have to admit that in my mind's eye, an image of myself while you're in school has developed, I see myself updating all the photo albums and starting that novel I always wanted to write. As the summer wound down and more frequent quarrels erupted between you and your siblings, I was looking forward to today. And then this morning, I walked you up the steep hill to your classroom. You found the coat hook with your name above it right away, and you gave me one of your characteristically fierce, too-tight hugs. This time you were ready to let go before I was.
Maybe someday you will deliver a kindergartner to the first day of school. When you turn at the door to wave good-bye, he or she will be too deep in conversation with a new friend to notice. Even as you smile, you'll feel something warm on your cheek.
And then, you’ll know…

D．Compared with bringing up the baby, work seemed to fade to her.
65．Which statement is NOT TRUE about George’s family according to the letter?
A．George’s parents gave birth to three children
B．The Georges is a double income family.
C．The children had more arguments during the summer.
D．They recyled soda cans.
66．The passage tries to show us .
A．how excited a child will be on his first day to school
B．how deeply a mother loves her child
C．how many efforts a mother has made to raise a child
D．how a mother plans her future life after her children go to school

The impression you make at the beginning of an interview is very important. Employers often decide to hire someone in the first three minutes of the interview. They judge you by your appearance，attitude(态度)and manners.
A friendly smile when you walk into the room is important. A smile shows a confident（自信的） and positive attitude.
When you introduce yourself， make eye contact with the interviewer. Some interviewers offer a handshake. Others don’t.
Try to be as natural as possible. But pay attention to your body language. The way you sit，walk，gesture，use your voice and show feelings on your face is all part of your body language. It makes the interviewer know how you feel about yourself and the situation you are in. Are you feeling positively about yourself? Your abilities? Your interest in the job?
Speak clearly and loudly enough. Show interest and enthusiasm in your voice. When you speak， look at the interviewer. Also， don’t say negative things about yourself， or former employer.
Listen to questions carefully. If you don’t understand a question， ask the interviewer to repeat or explain：
“I’m sorry， but I didn’t catch that.”
“I’m not sure exactly what you mean.”
Almost everyone is nervous in a job interview. Interviewers know that. They don’t expect you to be totally calm and relaxed. But they expect you to try to control your nervousness. They expect you to show confidence in your ability to do the job.
At the end of the interview， thank the interviewer for her or his time.
It’s a good idea to send a short thank-you letter right after the interview， or deliver it by hand.
Phone the company if you have not heard anything after one week. Ask if they have made a decision about the job.
Good luck！
