comes to staying in hotels and eating in restaurants.

The Tall Persons Club Great Britain (TPCGB), which was formed six months ago to campaign for
the needs of the tall, has turned its attention to hotels and restaurants. Beds that are too small,

My father loves his garden. He planted some seeds in it. But at that time I didn't understand
why working in the dirt excited him so much.

Unfortunately, in early May, my father was seriously injured in an accident. He had to stay in
bed for a while. My mother had several business trips so she couldn't take care of the garden. I
didn't want my father to worry, so I said that I would take care of his garden until he recovered. I
assumed that the little plants would continue to grow as long as they had water, and luckily it
rained fairly often so I didn't think much about the garden.

One Saturday morning, my father said to me,
to be picked. Let's have a salad today!
of the lettuce leaves and carrots had been half eaten by bugs. There were hundreds of bugs all
over them!

I panicked for a moment, but then I quietly went to the nearest store to buy some vegetables.

When I gave the salad to him, he said,
carrots are this big already. You must be taking very good care of my garden.

When a rather dirty, poorly dressed person kneels at your feet and puts out his hands to beg
for a few coins, do you hurry on, not knowing what to do, or do you feel sad and hurriedly hand
over some money? What should our attitude to beggars be? There can be no question that the
world
is full
of
terribly
sad stories.
It
must
be
terrible
to
have
no
idea
where
our next
meal
is
going to come from. It seems cruel not to give some money to beggars.


Certainly,
most
of
the
world's
great
religions
(
宗教
)
order
us
to
be
open-hearted
and
share
what we have with those less fortunate than ourselves. But has the world changed? Maybe what
was
morally
(
道德方面
)
right
in
the
old
days,
when
one
knew
exactly
who
in
the
village
had
suffered misfortune and needed help, is no longer the best idea. Quite a few people will not give
to beggars. Let us look at their arguments.

First, some believe that many city beggars dress up on purpose to look pitiable and actually
make
a
good
living
from
begging.
Giving
to
beggars
only
encourages
this
sort
of
evil
(
恶行
).
Secondly, there is the worry that the money you give will be spent on beer, wine or drugs. Thirdly,
there is the opinion that there is no real excuse for begging. One might be poor, but that is no
reason for losing one's sense of pride and self-dependence.

Related to this is the opinion that the problem should be dealt with by the government rather
than ordinary people. Some people think beggars should go to the local government department
and receive help.

It is hard to come to any final conclusion; there are various cases and we must deal with them
differently. A few coins can save a life in some situations, and even if the money is wasted, that
does not take away the moral goodness of the giver.

（
1
）
What is mainly discussed in the passage?

A. Moral deeds of people.
B. Religious activities of the church.

C. Moral goodness of the giver. D. Arguments on giving to beggars.

（
2
）
What
can
we
infer
from
the
sentence

has
the
world
changed?
in
the
second
paragraph?

A. People no longer know who suffers misfortune in the village.

B. Some people will not do what was morally right in the past.

C. We don't meet with those who need help any more.

D. Now it is the government's duty to help the beggars.

（
3
）
Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?

A. Some people dress up to pretend to be beggars.

B. Some beggars want money to help their children go to school.

C. Some beggars use the money to buy drugs.

D. Some beggars have no excuse for begging.

（
4
）
In
the
last
paragraph,
the
writer
thinks
that
it
is
hard
to
come
to
any
final
conclusion,
because ______.

A. the cases can be so different B. there are so many beggars

C. there is so much money wasted D. there are so many different arguments

【答案】

（
1
）
D

（
2
）
B

（
3
）
B

（
4
）
A

【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇议论文，论述了人们过去和现在对乞讨者不同观点及原 因，
告诉我们不同问题要区别对待。


（
1
）考查主旨大 意。纵观全文可知，本文论述了人们现在对乞讨者不同观点及原因。列
举了现在人们不给乞讨者钱的几种 想法及帮助别人是美德，告诉我们不同问题要区别对
待。故选
D
。


（
2
）考查句义猜测。上句说多数宗教都要求我们敞开心扉和不如自己幸运的人分享。 下
句讲或许过去道德上认为是对的现在不再是最好的想法。前后两句是转折，所以

ha s
the world changed?
指情况发生了改变，人们的观念发生了改变，故选
B
。


（
3
）考查细节理解。根据第三段中的
“many city beggars dress up on purpose to look pitiable
and actually make a good living from begging. the money' you give will be spent on beer, wine or
drugs.
和
there is no real excuse for beg ging.”
可知
A
、
C
、
D
都提到了，
B
没提到。故选
B
。


（
4
）考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的
“It is hard to come to any final conclusion; there are
various cases and we
must deal with them d ifferently.”
可知由于不同情况要区别对待，所以很
难做最后结论。故选
A.

If conditions get bad enough, almost any kind of weather can become a storm.

Stormy
weather
can
cause
people
to
cancel
their
plans.
It
can
cause
major
events
to
be
postponed. And severe stormy weather can be dangerous to people, fortune and anima1.

If you weather the storm, or ride out the storm, you survive and move on without
harm or
injury. For example, 1et's talk about Tornado Alley, the name for part of the central United States.
During
springtime,
this
area
often
has
a
large number of
powerful
tornadoes.
People
who
live
there are taught to shelter in the safest place they can find and wait for the storm to pass. People
who live in Tornado Alley are used to weathering many storms!


You can also weather a storm, but it doesn't involve actual weather. “To weather the storm”
can also mean to make it through a difficult experience or trying times. So, if the stock market(
股
市
)crashes, you might have to weather a financial storm.

Often before a big storm, conditions are calm. The calm before the storm can happen anytime.
It is the time before something bad happens. For example, at the beginning of a family reunion,
the adults were all talking happily. But the older children knew it was just the calm before the
storm. They've seen it happen before. The adults talk happily for about an hour. Then they start
arguing about events from the past
—
things that should really stay buried!

But after the storm begins and you find yourself in the middle of it, you are in the eye of the
storm.
In
the
world
of
weather,
the
eye
of
the
storm
is
the
calmest
part,
in
the
center
of
a
hurricane, for example. However, in the English language, if you are in the eye of the storm, you
are
in
the
most
intense
part
of
a
conflict.
For
example,
she
had
no
idea
that
walking
into
the
meeting would put her in the eye of the storm.

However, a brainstorm does not exist in the world of weather. To brainstorm means to try to
solve a problem by talking with other people. And don't worry. If we have trouble thinking of an
idea for the next program, we can always brainstorm with you!

（
1
）
What's mainly discussed in the 3rd and 4th paragraphs?

A. What the meanings of weathering the storm are.

B. How we can weather the storm.

C. Weathering a storm doesn't involve actual weather.

D. People in Tornado Alley can survive the storm.

（
2
）
Why does the author mention a family reunion in the fifth paragraph?

A. To stress the importance of weather forecast.

B. To develop the awareness of family.

C. To explain the meaning of an expression.

D. To praise the older children for being clever.

（
3
）
What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

A. A problem can't be solved if you worry too much.

B. A brainstorm often appears in the world of weather.

C. Difficulties can be dealt with by teamwork.

D. To brainstorm can cause troubles in the program.

（
4
）
What's the author's purpose in writing the text?

A. To tell us stormy weather can cause destruction.

B. To tell us some expressions about storm.

C. To tell us a storm can cause conflicts.

D. To tell us we should be ready for a storm.

【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了几个英语中与
“

有关的表达。


（
1
）段落大意题。第三段第一句
“If
you
weather
the
storm
，
or
ride
out
the
storm
，
you
survive and move on without harm or injury. ”
可知本段讲述
weather the storm
或者
ride out
the
storm

“To

weather
the
storm
can
also

to
make
it
through a difficult experience or trying times.
可知第四段讲述
To weather the storm

Garbage sorting has become a hot issue around China, especially after Shanghai began carrying
out a regulation on July 1.

Beijing, as a forerunner in environmental protection, has thus been expected to follow suit. The
capital of the country has long been campaigning for sorting and recycling household waste, as
part of its environmental drive for sustainable growth, local media reported.


The
current
regulation
gives
garbage
sorting
responsibilities
to
government
departments,
property management groups and other organizations. It also gives rules for companies, outlining
how they're responsible for waste collection, transportation and treatment. Only individuals are
not subject to responsibilities.

The long-awaited revision will soon change the situation,
it
properly
will
be
illegal,
said
Sun
Xinjun,
director
of
the
Beijing
Commission
of
Urban
Management.
In
Shanghai,
violators
are
now
fined
up
to
200
yuan
($$30)for
trash-sorting
violations. The maximum fine in Beijing will not be less than that, he said.

The Beijing city government first set out to promote garbage sorting in 2009. Authorities have
since
called
on
citizens
to
sort
their
household waste
into
four
types-recyclable waste,
kitchen
trash,
dangerous
waste
and
others-and
leave
it
in
a
corresponding
dustbin
or
trash
can.
Blue-
colored
dustbins
signify
items
within
are
recyclable,
green
represents
kitchen
trash,
red
corresponds to dangerous materials and grey to other waste.

To promote the awareness of garbage sorting and expand the base of participants, authorities
have employed workers to help residents on the spot. With intelligent devices, those who throw
in recyclable waste at given sites will be rewarded with bonus points, which can be used to buy
daily
goods.
At
some
communities,
there
are
no
color-coded
dustbins.
Instead,
a
scheduled
garbage
collection
service
is
offered
to
help
improve
the
environment.
In
other
communities,
workers offer a door-to-door service to collect recyclables or kitchen waste.

Beijing Environmental Sanitation Engineering Group has been promoting new garbage sorting
facilities such as recycling cabinets and smart kitchen waste trash cans since 2016, Xinhua News
Agency reported. Nearly 26,000 metric tons of household waste is generated across Beijing on a
daily
basis
and
29
terminal
garbage
disposal
facilities
are
working
at
full
capacity.
Nearly
9.3
million tons of household waste was processed in the city last year.

（

）
According to the passage, which dustbins should some used coke cans be thrown into?

A. Grey-colored dustbins. B. Red-colored dustbins.

C. Green-colored dustbins.
D. Blue-colored dustbins.

（

）
We can learn from the passage that ________.

A. new technology has been applied to help deal with garbage

B. Beijing carried out a more severe rule on garbage sorting than Shanghai

C. the change of the current regulation has aroused objection among citizens

D. the amount of household waste in Beijing is far from something disturbing

volunteers to help with the organization's activities. To do so, it should help to understand why
people undertake volunteer work and what keeps their interest in the work.


Let's
begin
with
the
question
of
why
people
volunteer.
Researchers
have
identified
several
factors that motivate people to get involved. For example, people volunteer to express personal
values related
to
unselfishness,
to
expand
their range of
experiences,
and
to
strengthen
social
relationships. If volunteer positions do not meet these needs, people may not wish to participate.
To
select
volunteers,
you
may
need
to
understand
the
motivations
of
the
people
you
wish
to
attract.


People
also
volunteer
because
they
are
required
to
do
so.
To
increase
levels
of
community
service,
some
schools
have
launched
compulsory
volunteer
programs.
Unfortunately,
these
programs
can
shift
people's
wish
of
participation
from
an
internal
factor
(e.g.

volunteer
because it's important to me
so
sensitive to this possibility when they make volunteer activities a must.

Once people begin to volunteer, what leads them to remain in their positions over time? To
answer
this
question,
researchers
have
conducted
follow-up
studies
in
which
they
track
volunteers over time. For instance, one study followed 238 volunteers in Florida over a year. One
of the most important factors that influenced their satisfaction as volunteers was the amount of
suffering they experienced in their volunteer positions. Although this result may not surprise you,
it
leads
to
important
practical
advice.
The
researchers
note
that
attention
should
be
given
to

methods
that
would
prepare
volunteers
for
troublesome
situations
or
provide
them
with strategies for coping with the problem they do experience

Another study of 302 volunteers at hospitals in Chicago focused on individual differences in the
degree to which people view
