l   Last month, some volunteers from Xi’an went to a middle school in the mountain area. They gave away 40 beds, 2 computers and hundreds of books to the students. The school lies deep in the mountains. Students have to live in the school. But the school was too poor to provide beds for them, so they had to sleep on the desks. Thanks to the volunteers, now the students can sleep on their own beds in the school.
l   The Zapps, from Argentina( 阿根廷), began their tour in their old cars several years ago. They travelled to over 40 countries with four kids. Many people wondered what made them travel around the world. They said, “It’s just oue dream, a big dream, from Argentina to the whole world. Thanks to those who supported us during our journey, our dream came true in the end. “Do you want to see your dream come true?” If so, why not start right away?
l   Jack Tsonis and Lindsay Morrison in Sydney decided to do something special on the UN’s International Day of Peace. They both loved peace. They both wanted to break the world record for the longest handshake to bring more love and peace to the world. To break the world record, they needed to shake hands for over 11 hours without a stop. Finally they make it. Their arms hurt a lot, but they were very happy.
小題1: The volunteer gave away       to the students.
A．beds and computersB．clothes and books
C．desks and bedsD．beds and bags.
小題2: What can we learn from the second story?

A．It took them less than 11 hours to break the world record.
B．They were happy though they didn’t break the world record.
C．Both of them loved peace.
D．They often shook hands

小題1:A
小題2:D
小題3:C

小題1:屬于細(xì)節(jié)題，由第一段第二句可知，贈送給他們的是40 beds, 2 computers and hundreds of books，所以答案選A
小題2:屬于細(xì)節(jié)理解題，A選項中沒有這個意思，B中說法錯誤，nobody helps沒有這個信息，C中l(wèi)ots of money.
，根據(jù)最后一段可知答案選D
小題3:屬于細(xì)節(jié)理解題，根據(jù)該段倒數(shù)第二行A選擇中l(wèi)ess than是錯誤的，F(xiàn)inally they make it.可知他們達(dá)到了，所以B是錯誤的，D無根據(jù)，根據(jù)They both loved peace，可知選C正確。

Today I got my dream job in New York! However, it’s far away from my home town and I’ve never visited New York before. Yesterday I took the train here and one of my workmates met me at the railway station. Then he showed me to the company. There they had a welcome party for me. Great!
My company offered no living place, so I had to find somewhere to live. I stayed in a hotel while I looked for a new home.
Sunday, 1st April
I’ve found the perfect flat! It’s small but very nice. It’s near my office, so I can walk to work. The only problem is that it’s $1,000 a month. That’s too much for a young man like me!
I’ve soon got used to the life here. I love it! There’s a supermarket nearby and some restaurants I can go to when I do not want to cook. My workmates and new neighbours are friendly. It’s April Fool’s Day today and I even played a trick on my neighbour next door. Cool!
小題1:How did Daniel get to New York?

小題2:What is Daniel’s flat like?

.British people are famous for drinking tea. But brother and sister, Sarah and Bobby Green, became young millionaires when they opened a chain of American-style coffee shops in the UK.
Having the idea: It started when Sarah took a weekend trip to New York to visit her brother Bobby. One evening, in a Thai restaurant, Sarah told Bobby how much she wished she could buy American-style coffee in London. Bobby suggested they started their own coffee shop. Sarah fell in love with the idea.
Doing the Research: Back in London, she spent a whole day on the London subway, getting off the train at different stations to taste the coffee. “It was terrible, and I knew there was a gap (空缺) in the market.” In 1995, they opened their first Coffee Republic shop in central London.
Making it work: The first year was very difficult. British people were not used to the names of American coffees, like latte and macchiato. But being successful was their dream and they were not going to give up. Today, there are over 100 Coffee Republic shops all over the country and the company has ￡30 million a year.
Advice for others: Sarah has now written a best-selling book about their experience, called Anyone Can Do It ! She hopes it will help other young people to start their own businesses. She says, “If you think you have the energy, then get out and follow your dream.”
小題1:What kind of company do they run?
A．A fast-food restaurant.B．A tea shop.
