A cup of coffee is a good way for many people to start their day. It can also pass on kindness.

Manyang Kher used to be a Sudanese child refugee(難民). When he was three years old, his village was burnt in the war. He was separated from his parents and never saw them again. He became one of the 20,000 young Sudanese who had to leave their home for Ethiopia’s Gambella area. He lived there as a refugee for 13 years.

When he was 16, Kher went to the United States. While he was in college, he started a program to help the refugees. Now, he owns a coffee company(公 司) called 734, which is a part of his program.The company has helped more than 200, 000 refugees living in the Gambella area till now. Kher said, “I know the difficulties and pains they face every day. You see kids die from hunger. You see kids dying of illnesses. You see kids running away from the refugee camp to find a place to be home, but die on the way.”

Eighty percent of the money made by the coffee company is used to send more of the children to school. And, as Kher explains, the money helps refugees to belp themselves. For example,a cup of 734 coffee can also buy one fishing net(網(wǎng))for a refugee. They can fish for themselves.

Kher sells the coffee online and to coffee stores. Megan Murphy owns a coffee store in Washington, D.C. She serves 734 coffee in her store and people love it. The coffee tastes delicious, so it’s a win-win on both sides.

科目：初中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：浙江省2018年湖州中考英語(yǔ)試卷 題型：閱讀單選

For me, one of the greatest pleasures in life is going to watch a great film at the cinema. It's a chance for me to get away from real life. There's nothing better than being lost in a story unless, of course, someone decides to break down the moment.

Whether at a cinema or a huge theatre, someone usually decides to treat the place like their own home! There is an accepted way of behaving at the cinema which some people don t seem to understand.

To start with, some people always turn up late, causing you to rise from your seat to allow them to go past. Then, when you want to enjoy the surround-sound effects, someone begins to enjoy their drinks and popcorn and thus makes a lot of noises, And what I can't stand most is people who decide to chat to their friends, sometimes not even about the film.

I'm not alone in this situation. Simon Mayo, a film critic at the BBC, experienced a “new low" during a film. He says, "The woman in front of me got a mirror out, then her boyfriend got a phone out and used the light on it to allow her to do her make-up!”

Simon has helped to create a list of rules on how moviegoers should behave at the cinema. One of them is no use of mobile phones, and another is not to take your shoes off--a most serious offence(冒犯)!

Of course, when we have paid for a ticket, we feel it is our right to relax and enjoy the film in the way we want to, but we mustn't forget our fellow moviegoers who want to enjoy the cinematic experience, too.

The best choice for anyone wanting to break the rules of cinema manners is to get a DVD and watch it at home. But we all know that the best way to enjoy the art of cinematography is on the big screen._______________

What about you? What annoys you about other people at the cinema?

1.Why does the writer enjoy going to the cinema?

A. It makes him feel like being at home.

B. It gives him a moment to stay away from real life

C. He prefers watching the films on big screens.

D. He wants to enjoy the cinematic experience.

2.What is considered by Simon to be the rudest at a cinema?

A. Using mobile phones. B. Chatting to their friends.

C. Taking the shoes off D. Having drinks and eating popcorn

3."__________"is the best sentence to fill in the blank in Paragraph 7?

A. Don’ t break the rules B. Manners are important!

C. Just stay at home! D. It's your choice!

4.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?

A. Popular Cinemas B. A Serious problem

C. Cinema Manners D. An Unpleasant Experience.

1.B 2.C 3.D 4.C 【解析】本文主要講述了在電影院看電影時(shí)應(yīng)注意的一些禮儀。 1.細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章第一，二句For me, one of the greatest pleasures in life is going to watch a great film at the cinema. It's a chance for me to get awa...
