Part3 Reading and Writing
VL Reading comprehension
Choose the best answer
Below are some suggestions given by the English children posted on the website about how to help Africa. Which one do you think is the best?
I think health is the most important thing. We need to make sure that the money we give is spent wisely. The money should be spent first on clean water supplies and better health care.
-----Robin, aged 16, Birmingham
I think the most important thing is to improve the education of the African countries. There is an old saying,"If you give a man a fish, you'll feed him for a day. If you teach him how to fish, you'll feed him for a lifetime." We need to help people to help themselves, not just throw money at the problem when it appears.
-----Rebecca, aged 15, Liverpool
People seem to give a lot more money to charity when there is a sudden, huge disaster like the earthquake. It's good for people to do so, but I also think that everyone should give a small part of their salary to charity. If everyone did that, it would make a big difference.
-----Mary, aged 14, Stratford-on-Avon
Giving money to charity can help, but it's not the final answer. I think what these countries need is a good government.
-----Bethany, aged 16, Newcastle
The best thing we can do is to send experts like engineers, doctors and teachers to help the people to help themselves.
-----Robert, aged 16, Cardiff

A. Mary and Rebecca. B. Bethany and Mary.

【答案】BBCA
【思路分析】
由第一段的第一句话可知
由第二段的第一句话
.由There is an old saying,"If you give a man a fish, you'll feed him for a day. If you teach him how to fish, you'll feed him for a lifetime." 可知这段话想表达的意思是“授人以鱼不如授之以渔”,所以Rebecca想表达的是教会Africans拥有自己存活的技能
由第4段Mary的看法可知,她倡导每一个人提供源于己薪资的一部分来给慈善机构帮助需要帮助的人。四个选项A比较合适
由第5段可知a good government非常重要。
由第三段的“ We need to help people to help themselves, not just throw money at the problem when it appears.”和“The best thing we can do is to send experts like engineers, doctors and teachers to help the people to help themselves.”都在强调要教会他们技能,让他们自给自足。

How often do you let other people's rude actions change your mood? Do you let a bad driver or an impolite waiter make your day in a mess?

He said, “Like garbage trucks, many people run around full of garbage, full of anger, and full of regret. ____78____ their garbage increases more and more, they look for a place to pour it. If you let them, they'll pour it on you. So when someone wants to pour it on you, don't feel hurt. Just smile, wave, and move on. You will be happier.”

I began to see Garbage Trucks. I see the bad ____80____ people are carrying. I see them coming to pour it. And like my taxi driver, I don't feel hurt. I just smile, wave, and move on.

D.Answer the questions
Not many years ago, some farmers were worried because hawks were taking many of their chickens. The farmers did not know what to do. Finally, they went to the officials and asked for help.
"Kill the hawks."the officials said we'll even pay you for them. So the farms began to think of ways to kill hawks.
The farmers killed many hawks. They no longer had to worry about their chickens. But now had a new worry. Field mice were eating up a lot of the farmers' grain.
Hawks eat not only chickens but also field mice. They cat more field mice than chickens.But the farmers did not know this When they killed a lot of hawks, they changed the balance of nature.
When people move into a new place, they often destroy many wild plants, Omen these plants are food for the animals. If the animals cannot find enough plants to eat, they will starve and have to leave the place.
In one part of the United States, for example, the deer there like to eat a certain kind rose. The mountain lions there eat the deer. The number of deer, mountain lions and wild roses not change much if people leave things as they are.
But people killed many mountain lions in order to protect the deer. Soon there were so many deer that they ate up all the wild roses. Then the deer began to eat the green leaves of young trees. These trees were important to the farmers, So the farmers thought of ways to protect their trees. Now the deer had nothing to eat, and many of them died. This was another lesson from nature.
