anything.Unfortunately,many children all over the world dont have access to books!For several years till now,Maria Keller,a 14-year-old girl from Minneapolis,Minnesota,has been changing that fact.When she was 8 years old,Maria already loved reading.She also noticed that some of her classmates didnt read as much as she did.When she asked her mother why that could be,her mother said that they might not be able to afford books.Maria had never thought of this.She could not believe that some children might not have bedtime stories read to them.She became determined to change this.With her mothers help,Maria created Read Indeed.Read Indeed is a non-profit organization aiming to collect and distribute books to children in need.During the early stages of Read Indeed,Maria set the goal to collect and distribute 1 million books by the time she is 18.It didnt take that long for her to reach that goal!Today,at age 14,she has collected over 1.8 million books and has shipped them to many states and countries around the world.She says,“I cannot live without books.As I continue my mission (使命),I have learned that the number of kids who have no books is in the hundreds of millions.So I just cant give up,even after reaching my original goal of 1 million books distributed.”Shes recently set a new goal:to distribute books to kids in need in every state in the United States,and every country in the world.She keeps track of her progress on a large map at the warehouse where she stores and sorts books.Maria believes that she can get support from even more people!1.What had Maria never thought

144.Which word can best describe Maria?A.Smart.B.Optimistic.C.Determined.D.Courageous.B(2016石家庄质检二)If you watch British television on March 15,you might be surprised to see celebrities (名人) wearing funny red noses and joking around.But dont worry.Theyre not mad.Its all part of a money raising event called Red Nose Day.Founded in 1985 by two British edians,the aim of the event is to raise money to fight poverty and injustice in the UK and Africa.Celebrities and public figures support the event by making appearances on ic TV shows.For example,David Cameron once appeared in a music video by One Direction,which the band produced for the event.Britons dont just raise money for charitable causes on one day a year,but they do it all year round.One way of doing so is by shopping in charity shops.These small shops sell clothes,books and household goods just like any other shop except that theyre all second-hand.There are nearly 10,000 charity shops in the UK.Their business model is simple:anybody who has things they dont want anymore can donate them to a charity shop,where they are checked for damage,cleaned and priced.The money that is made by selling them is used for a charitable cause.The idea of buying used clothes may sound unpleasant,but for shoppers who have less spending money,it has been a wele option.Now,shopping at charity shops is also being popular with young people looking for alternative fashion.“You can find very unique clothes for a very cheap price.It doesnt bother me that other people may have worn them.I simply wash them before I wear them,”said Anne Marie,a 19-year-old girl from the US.So next time you spot a charity shop,why not go inside?Who knows,you might find a lovely dress for just a few pounds.Even better,you can enjoy wearing it in the knowledge that your money helped a good cause.5.Why did Cameron appear in One Directions music video?A.To earn a living.B.To support the band.C.To help raise money.D.To entertain the audience.6.Where are the goods of charity shops from?A.Local bands.B.Peoples donation.C.British edians.D.The UK government.7.Whats Anne Maries attitude to charity shops?A.Favorable.B.Particular.C.Doubtful.D.Disapproving.8.What is the text mainly about?A.Red Nose Day.B.British celebrities.C.Charity in Britain.D.Second-hand shops.CBees play a vital role in the world.Unfortunately，bees are dying by the second.The main purpose of bees is to make honey.Honey, shockingly，does not exist for human consumption；it is essential to the insects.Honeybees store honey in their hives (蜂箱)in order for the bees to have energy for their flight muscles and for heating the hives during the winter period.They collect pollen(花粉)which supplies protein for young bees to grow.According to National Honey Board，the increased production and quality of agricultural crops as a result of honeybee pollination are valued at more than $14.6 billion per year.These insects are responsible for over 70 of the fruits and vegetables we eat today，including apples，grapes，coffee, beans，and broccoli.So if they are so valuable to agriculture，why do they keep dying off？A key suspect seems to be pesticides(农药)Honeybees who are exposed to pesticides result in the damage to their neurological(神经系统的)functions, specifically memory or behavior.And thats why the majority of worker bees disappear and leave behind a queen，plenty of food and a few nurse bees to care for the remaining immature bees and the queen.There are several other causes of the decline of bees，including the destruction of natural habitats，like woodlands，forests，and other habitats for bees.Climate change is also a factor in the decline of the wild bee population.Actually，there are a variety of methods to help the bee population grow.One way is to start your own organic garden by planting beefriendly plants.Pesticides are used in both industrial practices and even in your home，so it is best to find organic seeds and weed killers.1Why do honeybees store honey in their hives?ATo provide enough honey for humans to consume.BTo draw protein out of honey for young bees.CTo help attract other insects and make hives stronger.DTo strengthen bee muscles and heat hives in winter.2Apples and beans are mentioned in the third paragraph to show that _.Abees supply human beings with basic foodBbees mainly live on these agricultural cropsCbees are of great importance to fruits and vegetablesDbees can bring in more money for farmers every year3What is most likely to cause the worker bees to leave their hives behind?AThe lack of food.BThe abuse of pesticides.CThe fighting among bees.DThe destruction of the habitats.4What would the author probably discuss in the paragraph that follows?AAnother way to save bees.BOther tips for choosing seeds.CMore methods to plant green organic fruits.DCauses of the decline in the wild bee population.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文。蜜蜂在生物世界里起着重要的作用，但是由于农药的滥用，蜜蜂正在大批死亡。本文给出了增加蜜蜂数量的方法和建议。【难句分析】These insects are responsible for over 70 of the fruits and vegetables we eat today，including apples，grapes，coffee，beans, and broccoli.分析：本句为主从复合句，句中we eat today为省略了that的定语从句，修饰先行词the fruits and vegetables。译文：这些昆虫对我们如今所食用的超过70种的水果和蔬菜负责，包括苹果、葡萄、咖啡、豆类和西兰花。1D考查细节理解。根据第二段的第三句“Honeybees store honey in their hives(蜂箱)in order for the bees to have energy for their flight muscles and for heating the hives during the winter period”可知，蜜蜂储藏蜂蜜是为了增强飞行肌肉的力量，在冬天为蜂箱加热，故D项正确。2C考查细节理解。根据第三段的“These insects are responsible for over 70 of the fruits and vegetables we eat today，including apples，grapes，coffee，beans，and broccoli”可知，该段提及苹果和豆类旨在说明蜜蜂对水果和蔬菜的重要作用，故C项正确。3B考查细节理解。根据第四段的“Honeybees who are exposed to pesticides.And thats why the majority of worker bees disappear”可知，农药的滥用导致了工蜂离开蜂箱，故B项正确。4A考查推理判断。根据第五段的第一、二句“Actually，there are a variety of methods to help the bee population grow.One way is to start your own organic garden by planting beefriendly plants”可知，该段主要介绍了帮助蜜蜂增加数量的方法之一：种植对蜜蜂无害的植物。据此可以推断，下文将介绍其他的帮助增加蜜蜂数量的方法，故A项正确。.七选五阅读“Youre hired!”Youve probably already been filling out job applications
