existence.I chose to make their lives more enjoyable.This is how I did it.I found out through a friend about a play program for disabled children in a school.To be honest，at first，this didnt attract me too much.I knew little about children with disabilities，and was worried about how they would react to me.A few weeks later，I went to the school during the summer holidays for my first day of volunteering.Everybody there was really helpful，and it was great to be part of such an enthusiastic (热情的) team.We were each asked to pick a child to play with one to one.They suggested I pick one of the less challenging children，so I chose a little sixyearold girl.I thought the little girl would be subdued，as she was blind and in a wheelchair，and she would have little to smile about.However，when the young girl arrived，she had the biggest smile across her face.She kissed her mom goodbye，and smiled as I pushed her wheelchair outside for her to enjoy the warm day.I soon learnt about the things she loved，and was able to make her smile.Although these disabled children were not able to get up and run around，they were able to smile，and make me smile.They uncovered the child within me，which has been hidden behind textbooks and burdened by rules.I hope this story can show you volunteering does not have to be boring and tiresome；there are so many opportunities that a suitable one can always be found!语篇解读作者通过一次当志愿者的经历，意识到当志愿者是件很快乐、让人很有收获的事情。 1This passage is mainly about the writers_.Aadvice on how to get along well with disabled childrenBexperience as a volunteer in a school for disabled

It will help if we can better understand how we have come to be in the hard situation.Let us look at how people live today.When people want to buy a house，they borrow money from the bank.When they want to buy computers，refrigerators，or other expensive things，they use their credit cards to pay for them.When they use their credit cards to pay for things，however，they are in fact borrowing money to buy things and are living in debt.When something unforeseen happens，they can very quickly get into financial trouble.Life then becomes very hard.If we try to live a simpler life and spend less，we will not get ourselves into debt，and it also helps us save money and prepare for rainy days，just in case our situations suddenly change，or we lose our jobs.When we spend money on things that are not necessary，we lose our savings.It puts our financial situation in danger.There is a high unemployment rate (失业率) nowadays，and many people are worried that they are not able to find jobs.Actually，there are jobs.If a person doesnt only want jobs with a high salary and easy work，he will find that there are many jobs available and that there are still many ways we can earn a living.If we lead a downtoearth lifestyle，these changes will not affect us very much.We will not fall into suffering and can instead lead a peaceful and happy life.语篇解读作者分析了人们陷入经济危机的原因，以及告诉了我们怎样避免陷入经济危机。 6From Paragraph 2，we learn that many people are in financial trouble_.Abecause of the governmentBbecause of their own lifestyleCbecause they bought unnecessary thingsDbecause they borrowed money from others解析：推理判断题。通读第二段，可知人们陷入经济危机主要是因为他们的生活方式造成的。答案：B7In Paragraph 3，the writer thinks that people should_.Anever spend their savingsBbuy as few things as possibleCmake as much money as possibleDsave money in case their situations suddenly change解析：作者观点题。根据第三段的it also helps us save money and prepare for rainy days，just in case our situations suddenly change可知应选D，表示人们应该存些钱，以免境况突然发生变化陷入窘境。答案：D8According to the passage，because of the high unemployment rate，_.Athere are no jobs availableBmany people are living in hungerCthere is no way people can earn a livingDjob hunters shouldnt care about salary too much解析：推理判断题。根据第四段的If a person doesnt only want jobs with a high salary and easy work，he will find that可知在失业率高的情况下，找工作的人不应该太在乎工资的高低。答案：D9What kind of life does the writer suggest we live?ASimple.
