阅读理解。     The HOPE IS A GAME-CHANGER PROJECT will deliver unbreakable soccer balls to kids who, all too
often, see things horrible, broken and not survive the simplest of circumstances. The project started taking
form well before anyone knew where it would lead-which is to test the power of like-minded people working
together to turn inspiration into action.
    Four years ago Bobby was in Rwanda offering help to the people there and taking photos of a child
soldier named Moise with his"soccer ball", which was a pile of rubbish tied together with a string. This "ball"
was the only thing Moise could call his own-no family, no home, no place to go. Forced to fight in the Congo
and having killed three people at the unbearably young age of seven, the boy"s spirit was broken. And Bobby
knew, as he took one photo after the next, that he"d never forget him In fact, he returned the following year
to tell Moise he had stayed deep within his heart-but he was gone.
     I recently helped Bobby launch his new book The Power of the Invisible Sun which features a photo of
Moise, his ball, and kids from wartorn areas around the world. All of his earnings go towards the HOPE IS
A GAME-CHANGER PROJECT for the kids he visited over the past decade. They caught the emotional
landscape from heartbreak to joy, but share the undeniable longing for recovery and hope.
     Bobby and I share the unchangeable belief that delivering hope is really a game-changer, especially to a
child. We believe that each indestructible ball will come to represent a lasting symbol of hope. A light no matter
how small-The Power of the Invisible Sun.
     This holiday season, I ask you to think about whether you are doing enough to help someone else in the
world. Or as Bobby likes to put it, consider "taking a concrete baby step", which added together, can create
transformational change. It"s my great hope that the HOPE IS A GAME-CHANGER PROJECT will change
the lives of children the world over-one book, one ball at a time. 1. In the first sentence of the passage, the writer implies that _____. [     ]
A. kids live an unsafe life in parts of the world
B. the balls sent to kids should be of good quality
C. young kids cannot overcome the difficulties
D. kids intend to break their toys into pieces 2. The purpose of The HOPE IS A GAME-CHANGER PROJECT is to _____. [     ]
A send ball gifts to kids in poor countries
B. collect money to help kids in need
C. comfort kids in war-torn areas
D. offer kids help to change their lives 3. How may Bobby feel about Moise? [     ]
A. He was very proud of Moise"s bravery.
B. He felt sorry for Moise"s ruined childhood.
C. He thought money could solve Moise"s problem.
D. He felt happy to tell him what was in his heart. 4. Which of the following about Bobby"s new book is TRUE? [     ]
A. It earned a lot of money to help kids like Moise.
B. The photos inside reflected the kids" hopeless life.
C. Its title shows the author"s belief to change the world.
D. It changed the life of the kids recorded in the book. 5. The underlined part in the last paragrph probably means _____. [     ]
A. starting the first step as a baby does
B. taking an active action from now on
C. making great changes step by step
D. doing some small but good deeds

完形填空。     I can still remember when I met my best friend. She had just moved into the neighborhood and her grandmother brought her down to   1   me. I hid behind my mother and she hid behind her grandmother,   2   to look at each other. Soon we lost the   3   and started playing with each other.
    In the 7th grade, I first lost touch with her. She was   4   family problems and I deserted her to be with the   5   people. None of my new friends liked her as much as I did because they knew she had   6  . However, every summer we   7   always sit at each other"s house and watch soap operas, and talk about all the boys we liked.
     It was last year when I noticed the problem. I guess l was   8   devoted in high school to   9   she needed someone there for her. Anyway, she made a new best friend and so did I. Then I didn"t know why,  10  she started cutting herself!
     She then was diagnosed (诊断) with clinical depression At first, I was very  11 , but we still stayed in  12 . I wanted to be there for her since her new best friend basically  13  her and people were calling her  14 .
     Yesterday she came to me and said:"I never knew what a best friend was  15  you were the only person that
would stop me cutting. I  16  you so much, and you didn"t even know you were  17  me."
     We both cried. And I guess a kind of  18  from my life so far is never to give up on your friends. Even if they aren"t as cool as others, or people think they are crazy, they need  19  there. If you desert them, you will only
be  20  yourself.

Nancy, used to be   9  . Very glad to meet you." She behaved very  10 .

how to explain this to my girlfriend  12  the pretty girl again turned to me, "Will you give me your cell phone
number so that we  13  keep contacts (联系) later?" I had to submit to her  14 .

note. It was from the girl, who said, "Just now, two thieves tried to  17  your pocket. I had to act as an
acquaintance to draw your attention I should have left at the  18  stop but gave up as I noticed these two thieves
also  19  to leave at the same stop. Because of the  20  I delayed my departure. Now you"ll understand all I have

     As a music teacher, I have always known that music touches the soul. It can   1   all kinds of barriers to
reach students in a very special way. It can be the   2   for each child to find their light. I would like to   3
a story about it.
     For a few years I was   4   with the opportunity to teach disabled students. One of my most   5   students
was a five-year-old girl called Vanessa, who had difficulty walking, and could not speak. We   6   sat on the
floor for our music lessons and Vanessa liked to   7   on my lap (膝上). One of her favorite songs was "John
the Rabbit." It was a call and response song where I sang the call and the students   8   twice while singing
the repeating phrase, "Oh, yes!" Vanessa liked to   9   her hands together with mine and clap with me. We
probably performed that song during every class, Vanessa and I clapping together. But she  10  said or sang
a word.
     One day, when the song was finished, Vanessa turned around,  11  me in the eye, clapped her tiny hands
twice and said the words "Oh, yes!" I opened my mouth in  12  and for that moment l was the one who could
not speak. When my heart  13  started beating again, I looked over at the assistant teacher to find her also
  14 . Through music, we had made an awesome connection.
     Several years later, Imet Vanessa on the street in town. She waved with a big  15  on her face and then
clapped her hands twice, imitating the song we had  16  so many times in out music class. The little girl,  17
her connection with music, left an impression on me that will last forever. Every child has the  18  to learn
and grow. It is up to us to  19  the way to reach each and every one of our students. We all must find each
child"s  20 .

     Theodore, the mamger of the Paradise Hotel, told a middle-aged couple that they would have to leave the
hotel after just one night. The couple, visiting from Texas, had booked a room for eight nights.
     "They wanted a sterile (消毒了的) environment, "Theodore said. "They should have rented a room in a
hospital, maybe an operating room. This hotel is clean, but it isn"t that clean."
     Theodore said that, on the very first day, the couple bmught all the sheets, pillowcases and bedspreads
down to the rmin hall and just dropped them next to the front desk. They stood there next to this pile of
bedding while other guests looked, pointed, and mumured. The hotel got three cancellations within the hour
from people who witnessed this strange event.
     When Theodore asked the couple what the problem was, they said that their bedding was filthy and they
wanted it replaced. The couple could not identify any specific "filth" on the bedding. The wife just said, "we"re
paying good money to stay here. How dare you doubt us? We know the filth is there. That"s all the proof you
need." Theodore called room service, and the bedding was replaced immediately.
     Early the next evening, however, the couple marched to the front desk again and demanded seven cans of
sterilizer. "We need a can for each night. We have to spray the phone, the TV, all the door handles, the toilet
handle,the shower stall, the faucet, the sink, and any hotel staff entering our room."
     Worried, Theodore politely suggested that a hotel more suitable for them was just around the corner. He
then called ahead to reserve a "very clean" room, and gave them free transportation in the hotel Rolls-Royce.
A1so, he told the couple that they wouldn"t be charged for the second day.
     The couple were surprlsed but they really liked the idea of free room for a night and that expensive car
service.

1. The underlined word "filthy" means _____ in this article.

[ ]

A. clean
B. dirty
C. smelly
D. old

2. Why was Theodore worried?

[ ]

A. The couple might have more demands the following days.
B. The hotel was not clean enough.
C. The hotel would run out of cleaning stuff.
D. More guests would make the same requests.

3. What word could best describe the couple?

[ ]

A. Narrow-minded.
B. EXpensive.
C. Particular.
D. Easy-going.

     A mother and daughter living in my communlty are two of the most unfriendly people I have ever come
across in my life. They are totally separated, mixing with   1 . As they drive past   2   they keep their eyes
looking away and make no sign of acknowledgement. The only fame they have is making a nuisance (讨厌
的人) of themselves to the local police station by   3   music played too loud, dogs barking more than once
a day and any other petty   4   gripe (把柄).
     On moving into this neighborhood, I was   5   of these two but decided I would make up my own mind.
This proved qulte a   6   to me as more than once either the mother or the daughter would knock on my door
and blast (猛烈抨击) me with some   7   or other.
     I   8   answered politely and made sure I   9   as they went past my place and also made the effort now
and then to make a kind remark about their garden or pets.
     Time passed and in October, as part of the kindness rock give (送爱心石活动), Maureen and I  10  to
place a kindness rock in their garden. Their  11  remained unchanged, however, and I continued to be as
friendly as possible. During the Easter give, we decided once again to  12  these two unhappy ladies to our
list and left a packet of cookies on their  13 . Imagine my  14  when two days later they  15  at my gate and
jokingly said they are considering hanging their christmas stocking on their gate, and they  16  me a bunch
of flowers!
     So, my fellow gifters, do not  17  on your random gifts of kindness. You may never know iust what this
  18  to others, nor how many broken or  19  hearted people you may just change with a simple act of  20 .
