Kaitlin Riffel's dream to end poverty (贫困) started when she was visiting her father, who worked for the homeless.
“I never realized there were people in the world who didn't have a home or food before，”said Kaitlin, who is now sixteen. “I knew there was something I had to do about that. ”
At age eight, she started raising money to build a playground. “It took me two years，”Kaitlin said. “We started small. We wanted to do something to make a difference. ”
In 2014, when Kaitlin was thirteen, she visited Central America, and saw people going hungry and families living in houses made of cardboard. That year, she founded Kids on a Mission, which has helped hundreds of people there.
“The rooms were smaller than my bedroom, but there would be eight people living in each one，”Kaitlin said. “We also got to see the dirty rivers that those people were drinking out of. ”
Providing clean drinking water, food and clothes for people living in poverty is now an important task for Kids on a Mission. “This young lady is changing the hearts of people, and also changing the world，”said the headmaster of Kaitlin's school.

八、任务型阅读(每小题2分，共20分)
One day, a baby snail(蜗牛) found that he had to carry a big and heavy shell at any time. He was confused (困惑的)，so he went up to his mother and asked，“Why was I born with a shell that grew so hard and heavy？”His mother said，“Because we don't have bones to hold us up. We can only move slowly, so we need a shell to protect us. ”
The baby snail asked again, “The caterpillar(毛毛虫)has no bones, either, and she can't move quickly. Why can she live without a shell？”The mother snail answered, “That's because a caterpillar will become a butterfly(蝴蝶). She can fly high into the sky. The sky can protect her. ”
The baby snail had one more question, “But the earthworm(蚯蚓) moves like us. He has no bones and he won't turn into a butterfly. Why doesn't he carry a hard and heavy shell？”His mother said，“He can dig a hole and hide in the ground, and then the earth c an protect him. ”
The baby snail then cried, “We are so poor! We have no protection from the sky or from the ground ！”His mother smiled at him, “That's why we have a shell. My dear, imagine that if we don't have the shells, what will happen to us? Hot sun will dry out our bodies and we'll have nowhere to sleep. What's worse, we'll die in the heavy rain. How terrible it is! We don't depend on the sky or the ground for __①__. ②We should depend on ourselves．”
