It is home to about 400 elderly people and provides them with different types of assistance. However, it is also the Inter-generational Learning Center-a preschool where children and seniors have the chance to bond（结成友好的关系）.Established in 1991, the ILCs purpose is to allow kids to learn about acceptance while also being nurtured. It also aims to help seniors develop a greater sense of self-worth and strengthen social interactions. Babies to prekindergarten-aged children are placed into six different classes at the ILC. The kids attend art and music classes, as well as story time and exercise time with the seniors. Marie Hoover, ILC director, said that interacting with the seniors has proven beneficial for the young ones, making them more open-minded.“For the ILC children, interacting with the residents is simply part of their day-to-day life here and the way aging is normalized , which may be the most important benefit they receive ,” Hoover said. “ Ive had parents call me years after their children have graduated from our program to let me know about some incidents when their child was the first to warmly greet someone who happened to be in a wheelchair.”As for the seniors, theyre delighted by the panionship the children provide. The children bring so much energy and joy to our residents. Many of residents are widows or widowers and can bee lonely. Their adult children may still be working, so they may not get to see them as often as they would like. Having the children stay with the old makes our residents feel they are still part of a munity. The young and the old connect and learn from one another at this unique facility.8. ILC is intended to _.A. build a typical senior living munityB. take good care of the childrenC. benefit both the children and the seniorsD. rid the seniors of loneliness9. From what Hoover said in Para. 3, we can learn that the ILC children _.A. keep in touch with the seniors even if they have left ILCB. e to realize that aging is a normal part of lifeC. take different attitudes to the elderly after graduationD. think it easy to interact with the elderly residents in ILC10. The last paragraph mainly tells us _.A. the benefits the seniors receiveB. the situation of the seniorsC. childrens panyD. the interaction between the children and the seniors11. The underlined words this unique facility may refer to _.A. a special building B. a typical familyC. a typical teaching program D. a special learning center【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. D【解析】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了一个为老年人和孩子所设立的学习中心：ILC。【8题详解】考查细节理解。根据第二段中的“the ILCs purpose is to allow kids to learn about acceptance while they are also being nurtured.It also aims to help seniors develop a greater sense of selfworth and strengthen social interactions”可知，ILC的宗旨是让老年人和孩子双方都受益，故选C项。【9题详解】考查细节理解。根据第三段中的“For the ILC childrenthe way aging isnormalized，which may be the most important benefit they receive”可知，在ILC，孩子们已经逐渐认识到变老是生命中一种正常的现象，故选B项。【10题详解】考查段落大意。根据最后一段的整体内容可知，本段主要介绍了ILC对于老年人的积极意义，故选A项。【11题详解】考查词义猜测。画线词位于文章最后一句，该句是对文章进行的总结，并结合前两段对ILC的介绍及其对孩子们的积极影响和最后一段阐述的ILC对老年人的积极意义，可以推断出此处的“this unique facility”是在回应主题，即介绍Intergenerational Learning Center，故画线词指的是ILC这一特殊的学习中心。故选D。DEach year on Halloween,children look forward to trick-or-treating(不请客就捣乱)for candies. But for some kids, eating Halloween candies can be dangerous.Thats because one out of every 13 kids in the Us have a food allergy（过敏症）. They are allergic to ingredients（成份） in many Halloween candies, such as peanuts, tree nuts, milk, eggs, and beans. If they eat these foods, they will get sick or even die.“I had to throw away all my candies with tears,” eight-year-old Conlen said. Conlen is allergic to peanuts, tree nuts, and dairy.Twelve-year-old Kylie is allergic to peanuts and tree nuts. She has been trick-or-treating only twice. “I brought my candies home and gave them to the neighbors, Kylie said. It felt terrible.But this year, Conlen, Kylie and other kids with food allergies will have a chance for a happy Halloween .Thats because nearly100,000 households across the US have promised to take part in the Teal Pumpkin Project (TPP), which was started last year by Food Allergy Research & Education (FARE). FARE is an organization that works to improve the lives of people with food allergies. Through the project, the households agree to have nonfood items for trick-or-treaters,including trinkets(小饰品) and toys.To take part in the project, people buy a teal (蓝绿色) pumpkin or paint a pumpkin teal and place it in front of their house. The painted pumpkins let trick-or-treaters know that nonfood items are available there. The households also add their home addresses to an online map, making it easier for trick-or-treaters to find them.Kylie loves the idea.“The TPP makes Halloween fun and safe,”she said.“It makes me feel like a normal kid, and it makes everyone feel included.”12.
