参考答案：
Last Saturday, some of my classmates and I went to the Qiandao lake for some refreshment. Suddenly I noticed an old dustman collecting rubbish thrown about by the visitors. He was apparently having great difficulty collecting some small items, especially cigarette butts. An idea struck me. Why not help him collect litter? Much to my joy, all my classmates agreed and were willing to help. So we worked hard together with the dustman and collected lots of rubbish. Then we parted and waved farewell to the thankful dustman.
Dog-tired as I was, I felt really happy. As the saying goes, helping hands are more sacred than praying lips. I truly believe we’d have a more harmonious society if everybody took action. What a fine deed!
三、阅读理解
20. C "To educate a girl is to educate a thousand people," says Maimouna Samaké, a mother of six children(including five girls). "If you put one seed in the ground and rain comes, it will grow to produce many seeds."
Samaké, one of 2,000 residents, lives in a small village, Sounkala, in one of the world’s poorest countries. Now she has a chance to see this wish come true thanks to build On, an American non-profit organization that is building a school in her community.
For 17 years, build On has been sending American high school students overseas to create schools in places where literacy(文化)and formal education are usually out of reach. The organization has built about 300 schools in Mali, Malawi, Nepal, Senegal, Nicaragua and Haiti. Its goal is to get young Americans in mostly urban areas to get involved in education. At the same time it can bring literacy to children and adults in poor villages in the developing world.
Sounkala’s current school only has about 70 chil dren; mud floors, poor lighting, few desks and an absence of books mean that the school is not the most ideal learning environment. Therefore they certainly could use buildOn’s help.
Samakéhasn’t been to school, but she wants a better future for her five daughters, including Ramatou, 12, and Mariam, 10. "When a woman attends school, she will teach what she learns to her children," said Ramatou, who wants to become a doctor. "She will also know how to take better care of her family." Build On tries to build schools for grades one to three. If things go well over those three years, they return to help build another school for grades four to six, and then set up evening adult literacy classes. Ramatou and Mariam will not learn inside the walls of build On school since they are already in the sixth grade, but Samakéhopes that they will be able to attend evening classes to continue learning.
68. Which of the following aspects of build On is NOT mentioned in the text?
A. Its history.
B. Its goal.
C. Its approach.
D. Its sources of funding.
69. According to the text, build On is most likely to help a school _________.
A. in a village in a developed country
B. in an urban area in a developing country
C. in a rural area in a developing country
D. in an earthquake-stricken area in a developed country
70. What do we know about Samakéand her family?
A. Samakéonly has daughters.
B. Samakéis well-educated.
C. Ramatou is a doctor.
D. Mariam is in the sixth grade.
71. The text mainly tells us about __________.
A. people’s education conditions in poor areas
B. a woman’s dream of going to school
C. an organization that helps build schools for people in poor areas
D. build On’s great contributions to education

21. Deaf teenagers Orlando Chavez and German Resendiz have been friends since kindergarten. Together the two boys, who go to Escondido High School in California, have had the difficult job of learning in schools where the majority of the students can speak and hear.
Orlando lost his hearing at the age of one. German was born deaf, and his parents moved from Mexico to find a school where he could learn sign language. He met Orlando on their first day of kindergarten.
“We were in a special class with about 25 other deaf kids,” German remembers. “Before then, I didn’t know I was deaf and that I was different.”
“Being young and deaf in regular classes was very hard,” signs Orlando. “The other kids didn’t understand us and we didn’t understand them. But we’ve all gro wn up together, and today, I’m popular because I’m deaf. Kids try hard to communicate with me.”
Some things are very difficult for the two boys. “We can’t talk on the phone, so if we need help, we can’t call an crisis service,” German signs. “And we can’t order food in a drive-thru（汽车餐厅）.”
Despite their difficulties, the two boys have found work putting food in bags at a local supermarket. They got their jobs through a “workability” program, designed for teenagers from local schools with different types of learning disabilities.
German has worked in the supermarket since August, and Orlando started in November.
“The other people who work here have been very nice to us,” Orlando signs. “They even sign sometimes. At first, we were nervous, but we’ve learned a lot and we’re getting better.”
The opportunity to earn money has been exciting, both boys said. After high school, they hope to attend the National Technical Institute for the Deaf in New York.
25. Orlando and German have been_____________.
A. to Mexico together.
B. deaf since they were born.
C. friends since they were very young.
D. to different high schools.
26. The word “crisis” in paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to________.
A. food.
B. emergency.
C. alarm.
D. quick.
27. Both boys are happy to___________.
A. have the opportunity to earn money.
B. work at the National Technical Institute for the Deaf.
C. help students with learning disabilities.
D. design programs for the deaf.
