homeless.(倒数第二段最后一句)分析：本句是复合句。第一个that引导表语从句；he collects from distributing the cards为省略了关系代词的定语从句，先行词是all the money；第二个that引导定语从句，先行词是charity，that在从句中作主语，同时a charity that helps the homeless作the British Heart Foundation的同位语。译文：最棒的是，他把分发卡片收集来的所有的钱都捐赠给了英国心脏基金会，一个帮助无家可归者的慈善机构。词汇积累：generosity n慷慨 awkward adj.令人尴尬的 vegetarian n素食者 unnoticed adj.被忽视的，不被注意的1A细节理解题。After one of his close family friends known
