Spencer collected the bats，balls，gloves，helmets and masks for his mitzvah(德行)project，which is a munity service project that many Jewish kids do around their bar or bat mitzvahs(成人礼). A bar mitzvah is a ceremony for a boy while a bat mitzvah is intended for a girl. The ceremony means that you are old enough to take on a grown-ups responsibilities. Spencer got the idea for his mitzvah project after seeing the Ugandan national team at last years Little League World Series. Some of the Ugandan players didnt even have their own gloves. And Spencers donations are going to a group called “Pitch for Baseball”a group that gives baseball equipment to kids in low-ine munities around the world. Mollie Schwartz and Mia Schwartz also came up with a sports-related mitzvah project. The money they raised went to the Israel Sport Center for the Disabled. They raised at least $9,000-enough to pay for at least three wheelchairs made for playing basketball. In Massachusetts，Abigail Miller decided to collect musical instruments for her mitzvah project. The instruments Abigail collected were then donated to groups that distribute them to kids who cant afford to buy them. “I want to make sure everybody can get the chance to enjoy music like I do,” Abigail said. Abigail collected more than three-dozen instruments-wind instruments，string instruments，keyboards，even a drum set. Whether its playing sports，playing music or something else，kids such as Spencer，Mollie，Mia and Abigail are using their mitzvah projects to change the world for the better. “They learned about generosity，said Mollies mother，Loft Schwartz，“and the power to make things happen”. 21. How did Spencer feel after collecting some baseball equipment? A. Tired. B. Confident. C. Proud. D. upset. 22. Spencer planned to begin to collect baseball equipment . A. when he was only thirteen years old B. after he saw some players wearing no gloves C. when he found a group offering equipment to others D. after he found his classmates still living in poverty 23. What do we know about Abigail Miller from the text? A. She collected sport equipment for the disabled. B. She hoped more things would be given to those kids. C. She sent the things she collected directly to those in need. D. She helped many kids have fun with music through her efforts. 24. From the passage we can know . A. some kids are famous for their funny projects. B. not all mitzvah projects are related to sports. C. the requirements are different for boys and girls. D. few girls are willing to do the mitzvah projects. 25. What can we learn from the text? A. Generosity. B. Bravery. C. Determination. D. Honesty. BOn March 15, Dunes View Middle School held a contest for school bands. Student bands tried out for the opportunity to perform at the school picnic，which will be held at the end of June. The winner of the contest was the band called Four Square.“Were very proud that we won the contest and are excited to perform at the picnic，” says Peter Zandt，who plays guitar in the band. “And since we hope to perform someday at other local places，like restaurants and parks，this will be a great first step.”The contest was the creation of music teacher Mr. Lopez and drama teacher Ms. Cho. The two thought of the idea while discussing recent years school picnics. “The picnic is one of the biggest events of the year，but it has bee a bit formulaic，said Ms. Cho. “The activities are the same every year .We thought that a performance by a student band would make the school picnic more interesting and fun.”Mr. Lopez，Ms. Cho，and three other teachers judged the contest，which took place in the gym. To see if the bands could present a wide range of musical skills，the teachers asked them each to prepare two songs：one song with original words，and another in which students played instrumental music only. The judges finally chose the band Four Square as the winner of the contest. Four Square is a rock band with an unusual twist：it includes a violin player! The members of Four Square write their own songs and practice three times a week after schoo1. Students and teachers agreed that the band petition was a big success. All are looking forward to the school picnic in June. 26. What can be the best title for the article?A. Famous Band Visits Schoo1. B. Teachers Give Music Lessons. C. Students Have Fun at School Picnic. D. School Holds Student Band Contest. 29. According to the article，what is unusual about the band Four Square?A. It is named after a popular childrens game. B. Its members practice several times a week. C. It is a rock band with a violinist. D. Its members all play guitar. 30. According to the article，what does the band Four Square hope to do in the future?A. Perform at the school picnic every year. B. Perform in many different places. C. Buy new instruments. D. Record an album. CIf you saw another kid ride her bike too fast around a corner and fall down, you might ride your bike more slowly on that turn. Yes, we humans are very sensitive to others mistakes. And the same is true for other animals. Animals mess up all the time. They might eat poisonous leaves, fall off a tree or let their prey(猎物) slip away. By watching others fail, an animal can avoid making the same mistakes, thus improving its chance of survivalScientists suspected that one part of the brain helps animals process information about others errors. Ceils in that part appear to bee more active when a person sees someone else making a mistakeBut researchers didnt know whether individual cells in this part of the brain play different roles in detecting errorsTo investigate the brains response to errors in more detail，the researchers taught a game to two macaques，a type of monkeyOne monkey could press a yellow or green button while the other watchedIf the first monkey pressed the right button，the team gave both animals a treatEvery couple of rounds，the two monkeys switched rolesMeanwhile, the scientists monitored individual cells in the animals brains When the first monkey messed up the game by pressing the wrong button，a group of cells in the second monkeys brain firedBut if the second monkey also made the wrong choice during its turn，some of the cells in that group didnt respondThose unresponsive cells reacted specifically to mistakes made by others，not to the monkeys own mistakesScientists believe other parts of the brain also might help people process information about anothers errors“You start to think about this other person and see things from his angle”Ellen de Bruijn，told Science NewsShe studies the brain at the University of Leiden in the Netherlands31According to Paragraph l，animals ability to learn from others mistakes Aused to be ignored by humans Bensures that they will never fail Cis being lost because of humans Dhelps them to survive better32The underlined word “detecting” in Paragraph 2 probably means “ ”.
