Passage 4
(08·江西C篇)
Topping the class academically was certainly an advantage.Studying was a breeze for Nigel.The reward was certainly incomparable to the little effort that he had to put it.It began when he was selected to help the teachers in the computer laboratories.
The peak of his school career came not when he topped the school but when he was selected
for the nationwide competition.Unlike everyone else, Nigel wanted to join the contest because he liked playing with the Lego sets and making something out of them.Nigel spent the next two months rebuilding the robot.It was during the time that Nigel found out about the prizes for the competition as well as another competitor, Alicia, from a neighboring school.His early intentions were forgotten.Getting the thousand-dollar prize was more important than anything else.Nigel decided to befriend Alicia.Unaware of his intentions, she told him all about the robot that she had been building for the competition.He even helped her to put the finishing touches to her robot.He was glad with the way things had progressed.His robot looked even better than Alicia’s and it was able to bounce a ball with its arm, something Alicia had failed to do.
On the day of the competition, he saw Alicia.Everything dawned on her the minute she saw
him among the competitors. She stared at him, puzzled at first, then angry and finally a look of helplessness came over her.
The flashbulbs of the camera exploded in Nigel’s face.The robot had performed actions so
unique and different that the specialists’ judgments were the same.Nigel was so pleased with himself that he did not even notice the girl standing a few feet away from him.Without her, he would never have won the competition.

Passage 3
(08·山东D篇)
Melissa Poe was 9 years old when she began a campaign for a cleaner environment by writing a letter to the then President Bush.Through her own efforts,her letter was reproduced on over 250 donated billboards (广告牌) across the country.
The response to her request for help was so huge that Poe established Kids For A Cleaner Environment (Kids F.A.C.E.) in 1989.There are now 300,000 members of Kids F.A.C.E. worldwide and it is the world’s largest youth environmental organization.
Poe has also asked the National Park Service to carry out a “Children’s Forest” project in every national park.In 1992,she was invited as one of only six children in the world to speak at the Earth Summit in Brazil as part of the Voices of the Future Program.In 1993,she was given a Caring Award for her efforts by the Caring Institute.
Since the organization started,Kids F.A.C.E.members have distributed and planted over 1 million trees!Ongoing tree-planting projects include Kid’s Yards-the creation of backyard wildlife habitats (栖息地)-and now Kids F.A.C.E.is involved in the exciting Earth Odyssey,which is a great way to start helping.
“Starting the club turned out to be a way to help people get involved with the environment.Club members started doing things like recycling,picking up litter and planting trees as well as inviting other kids to join their club.”
“We try to tell kids that it’s not OK to be lazy,” she explains.“You need to start being a responsible,environmentally friendly person now,right away,before you become a resource-sucking adult.”
