Britain．His father was rich but he died when Roald was very young．Roald and his mother lived a hard life．He had to leave school and went to Africa where he worked for an oil company．In 1939 Roald

Cain kills his brother Abel．When God asks Cain where Abel is, he replies, “I don’t know．Am I my brother’s keeper?” by which he means, “Am I responsible (有责任心的) for my brother—his safety and health?” The answer, of course, is “Yes, you are．”This sense of responsibility for others is basic t o all good societies．And also it is basic to what we call “civil(文明的) society”．China is now working on building a civil society and the high schools in Shanghai want students to take part in that through volunteering．They are supposed to do sixty class hours of volunteer work before graduation．This is something new in China, but it is not new in other countries．In the Canadian province of Ontario, high school students are required to do forty hours of volunteering．In some American states, the volunteering requirement is one hundred hours．These students spend about an hour a week during the school year and summer vacations, helping the poor, the sick and the old．They also teach young children to read and help to clean up the environment．And studies have shown that this volunteering experience influences students a lot after graduation．Some of you may be thinking, “Gee, sixty class hours is a lot．H ow can I find the time?” In fact, if you finish it in three years, you only need to do the work about three class hours a month．And the time is well spent if it helps you realize that “being your brother’s keeper” makes you a better person and makes society a better place for everyone．1．A Shanghai high school student should finish class hours of volunteer work before graduation．A．thirtyB．fortyC．sixtyD．one hundred2．The underlined word “that” in Paragraph 2 refers to “”．A．building a civil societyB．reading the BibleC．doing the volunteer workD．playing more

brother4．The main purpose of the writing is to ．A．tell students where to do volunteer workB．give advice on how to be a good volunteerC．encourage students to do more volunteer workD．introduce volunteer work in different countries5.DThe Vine That Ate the SouthKudzu is a fast-growing vine(蔓生植物) that covers a large area in the southern United States．It is so common that one might think it is a native plant, but it is not．Kudzu was brought to the United States from Japan in 1876．Many Americans thought it was beautiful, and they began to plant it．They didn’t know it could grow up to a foot a day during the summer months．Nor did they know it would grow up and over anything in its path(路径)．In Japan, kudzu experienced cold winters and a short growing season．But in the United States, it has a very long growing season with warm and wet southern weather．It is fine weather for the vine to grow fast．In the 1920s, people used the vine to feed farm animals．Ten years later, the government supported to plant kudzu because it kept soil(土壤) from washing away．However, by the 1950s, the government no longer wanted people to plant the vine．Twenty years after that, the government said it was a harmful plant．The vine grows up trees and buildings, making some beautiful shapes．However, trees die after kudzu covers them because they can not get enough light．Scientists are looking for ways to kill the vine．They used poisons(毒药) to kill the vine．However, some of the poisons made it grow even better．Scientists also find it difficult to dig up Kudzu．The plant is really tough．Because kudzu is so hard to kill, some people are making the best of it．So they try to find different uses for the vine．They find the vine can be used to make paper and baskets, it can be used to feed the goats, and it can even be eaten by people．Scientists are studying it in the hope that the vine can be used asa medicine．At the very least, kudzu serves as an example of the unexpected results that can come from non-native plants．1．We can learn from the passage that ．A．kudzu mostly grows in the northern AmericaB．kudzu was brought to Japan from AmericaC．kudzu grows very fast in warm and wet weatherD．American government has never supported to plant kudzu2．The underlined word “tough” in Paragraph 4 probably means “”．A．not easily brokenB．widely usedC．hard to growD．important to one’s health3．The last paragraph is mostly about ．A．how quickly the vine growsB．how people use the vineC．why people want to kill the vineD．why people eat the vine4．The writer uses the title “The Vine That Ate the South”
