Ⅳ.阅读理解
Each year，millions of children around the world are unable to go to school.To draw attention
to this widespread problem，the United Nations (UN) is putting education first.Recently，the UN screened a documentary film called Back to School.The film is the second in a series of documentaries (纪录片) for the project Time for School.
These films follow seven children from seven different countries.This 12-year project began in 2003，when the children first started school.“This is something we could do to help the education crisis in the world，”said producer and writer Judy Katz.“Documentary film-makers can get deeply involved in a problem and do something about it.”
More than 100 million children will never set foot in a school.Sixty percent of those children are girls.Cheryl Faye，head of the UN Girls Education Initiative，spoke about the many factors that prevent girls from getting an education.One problem is the long distance many children must travel to get to school.Also，girls in many cultures are traditionally expected to marry early and work to help their families.“We need to make a special effort for girls，”Faye said.
As part of the UN’s Millennium goals，the organization wants every single child to get at least an elementary education by 2015.
Students from Lawrence Middle School in New York were deeply moved after they saw the film.The seventh-grade class is raising money to help build a library on the outskirts of Nairobi，Kenya，where Joab—a child in the documentary—lives.The class teacher，Karen Weiner，and the cl ass are known in their school as the “Kenya crew”．All the kids were really happy to support Joab and said they felt great about their fund-raising efforts.Like the seventh-graders at Lawrence Middle School，kids can work together to make a difference in places like Nairobi.By raising money for education，kids can help children on the other side of the world have a chance of a better，happier life.
1．What’s the purpose of the UN screening the documentary film Back to School?
A．To raise awareness of the need for global education.
B．To show the achievements which have been made in the past few years.
C．To raise funds for global education.
D．To encourage all the children to come back to school.
2．Special efforts should be made for girls because ______.
A．sixty percent of the children in the world are girls
B．more than 100 million girls will never go to school
C．most of the girls are tired of going to school
D．more than one half of the children who never go to school are girls
3．Which of the following could not be the factor that prevents girls from getting an education?
A．Long distance from school.
B．Being born weak.
C．Helping work for the family.
D．Early marriage.
4．Why are the class teacher，Karen Weiner，and the class considered as “Kenya crew”？
A．Because they are trying their great efforts to raise money for the education of Kenya Children.
B．Because they are actors in the documentary film Back to School.
C．Because they are mostly from Kenya，where the child in the documentary lives.
D．Because they all have the same experience as Joab，the Kenya child.
5．The last paragraph mainly discusses ________.
A．American middle school students’desire to go to Kenya
B．the content of the documentary film Back to School
C．an example of being inspired to take action after seeing the film

Ⅴ.阅读理解
In choosing a friend，one should be very careful.A good friend can help you study.You can have fun together and make each other happy.Sometimes you will meet fair-weather friends.They will be with you as long as you have money or luck，but when you are down，they will run away.How do I know when I have found a good friend？I look for certain qualities (品质) of character，especially understanding，honesty and reliability (可靠)．
Above all else，I look for understanding in a friend.A good friend tries to understand how the other is feeling.He is not quick to judge.Instead，he tries to learn from others.He puts himself in the other person’s place，and he tries to think of ways to be helpful.He is also a good listener.
At the same time，however，a good friend is honest.He does not look for faults (过错) in others.He notices their good points.In short，a friend will try to understand me and accept me.
Another quality of a friend is reliability.I can always depend on a good friend.If he tells me he will meet me somewhere at a certain time，I can be sure that he will be there.If I need a favor，he will do his best to help me.If I am in trouble，he will not run away from me.
There is a fourth quality that makes a friend special.A special friend is someone with whom we can have fun.We should enjoy our lives，and we would enjoy our friendship.That is why I especially like friends who are fun to be with.
A good friend likes the same things I like.We share experience and learn from each other.A good friend has a good sense of humor (幽默)，too.He likes to laugh with me.That is how we share in the joy of being friends.And I know that he is looking for the same quality in me.
When I meet someone who is reliable，honest，and understanding，I know I’ve found a friend!
1．In the opinion of the writer，which of the following qualities is the most important in choosing a friend?
A．a sense of humor B．honesty。
