Last weekend, my kids along with a few other kids from the neighborhood volunteered to help me wash my car.My 10-year-old daughter came up with the idea of 31 other people’s cars as well.It was pretty 32 outside and I had no plans to 33 being in the bright sun.She 34 wanted to give lemonade(柠檬汽水)to passers-by for free.I had seen little kids 35 and sell fresh lemonade for a small cost but not free.Although I felt 36 , I decided to help her.37 she asked me, “What if we 38 this a smile car wash?” I couldn’t hold back my tears and 39 her and the other kids to go outside the house and come up with 40 ideas.While I kept myself busy in drying the car, the gang walked up to me with a(n) 41 with beautiful images of smiles.They had “Free Car Wash” written on it and the 42 of their exercise was “smile”.It was pretty neat to see a team of kids ranging 5-11 years with the 43 to do something for others.
All that seemed 44 and came right from their heart.Nothing seemed to 45 to them: their playtime, the heat outside—they just wanted to 46 others and do something nice in the community!
I helped them make some fresh lemonade and brought out some additional 47 to help clean cars.Passers-by were 48 and one even shouted back to them saying “God Bless You, my kids…” One of them even tried giving them 5 dollars, which they refused.A pretty heartwarming 49 !
I feel blessed by being 50 by such wonderful and loving souls.

举一反三
But her future hasn"t always looked so bright. While her mother, Bekelech, sacrificed immensely for Genzeb, she would not have been able to continue sending her to school. When her husband died, Bekelech was the sole provider for their five children. In order for them to survive, she began the daily routine of walking approximately 8-10 miles a day collecting sticks to sell near her 8" x 10" home in Kichene. It wouldn"t have been long before Genzeb would have been, forced to quit school in order to help her mom. But Bright Future changed all that.
Genzeb has been at Bright Future for 3 years. Since Ethiopian schools let out early, Genzeb walks to the facility right after lunch.

Field trips are one of her most favorite activities of all. She especially loved the one to Addis Ababa University.

At so many levels, her involvement with Bright Future allows her to receive a better education, which she values. For one day she wants to help people in need by becoming a doctor.

Whenever we hear about “the homeless”, most of us think of the Developing World. But the 26 is that homeless is everywhere. For example, how many of us would expect to see people living on the streets of a 27 country like Germany?Kurt Muller and his wife Rita have spent eleven years making 28 for the homeless of Berlin, Germany’s capital. They first 29 one long hot summer when most Germans were 30 on holidays. Kurt and his wife stayed at home, made sandwiches, 31 a table in the street and gave food to the homeless.
The Mullers soon realized that food and clothing weren’t 32 . “What these people also need is warmth and 33 ,” says Rita. The Mullers didn’t 34 to give their phone number to the street people and told them to phone anytime. Rita 35 there was somebody at home to answer the phone and their home was always 36 to anyone who couldn’t face another night on the street.

It’s fun watching people biking. They rush quickly through crossroads, move skillfully through traffic, and ride even on sidewalks(人行道). Bicycles allow people the freedom to move about that cars just can’t provide.
Eager to be part of this aspect of Chinese culture, I decided to buy a bicycle. Great weather accompanied my great buy. I immediately jumped up on my bicycle seat and started home.
My first ride home was orderly (守秩序的). To be safe, I stayed with a “pack” of bikers while cars on the streets came running swiftly out of nowhere at times. I didn’t want to get hit. So I took the ride carefully.
Crossing the streets was the biggest problem. It was a lot like crossing a major highway back in the United States. The streets here were wide, so crossing took time, skill and a little bit of luck.
I finally made it home. The feeling on the bicycle was amazing. The air hitting my face and going through my hair was wonderful. I was sitting on top of the world as I passed by places and people. Biking made me feel alive.
小题1: According to the author, why are bicycles still popular in China today?
A.Because they are traditional and safe. |
B.Because they are convenient and inexpensive. |
C.Because they are colorful and available. |
D.Because they are fast and environment friendly. |
A.to ride it for fun | B.to use it for transport |
C.to experience local skills | D.to improve his riding skills |
A.It was boring. | B.It was difficult. |
C.It was lively. | D.It was wonderful. |
A.The author enjoyed showing off his biking skills. |
B.The author was annoyed by the air while riding. |
C.The author was praised by the other bikers. |
D.The author took great pleasure in biking. |
Actually I planned the trip couples of months ago. The idea of traveling the country — making things as I went, meeting artists and craftspeople — sounded perfect to spend the summer. I’d pack a tent and a sewing machine and I’d set off. But by the time I determined my plans and hit the road, leaves made a sighing sound under foot. It seemed crazy to camp with winter on the way; Luckily, Newsnight viewers offered me accommodations in return for help with a craft task.
My tasks ranged from sewing worn-out clothes to making trousers. Textile students in Harpenden offered to pay for my petrol in return for a talk about hats. In Derby, Amy needed help to change an old pair of curtains.
I was really struck by people’s increasing enthusiasm for making things. When I asked some people if they could sew, only a few raised their hands. But when I asked who wanted to learn, nearly everyone responded positively, hoping to learn something practical.
Craft is definitely popular at the moment. But besides fashion, we’re learning to appreciate effort and quality again. Perhaps once people rediscover the pleasure to be gained from making something unique, it may stick.
Sue is director of quilts at the V&A, where next spring she’ll be putting on the museum’s first major quilting exhibition. Sue believes the return to crafting is related to how we rethink ourselves. “People, especially women, are beginning to think about the way they live their lives. It’s 40 years since the first women’s liberation(解放) conference was held in Oxford. Since then we’ve been in the workplace, and we’ve had the opportunity of choice. Now we’re carefully choosing to go back into the home.”
Whether you agree with that or not, there’s something about Christmas that brings out the artistic flavor(气息) in everyone. Whether it’s baking bread or pies or decorating the halls or rooms, we’re all prepared to have a try at any time. So if you fancy having a different and joyful party or holiday and making a few presents, try these really simple ideas, each inspired by my recent journey there. They make small and interesting gifts, and take no longer than 30 minutes each. Enjoy Christmas songs and settle down with a cup of hot cocoa, and the cold is gone. You’ll save yourself a small quantity of money and spread a little bit of love, too!
小题1:Why did the author promise to make herself a Christmas gift this year?
A.She wanted to enjoy a different Christmas. |
B.She wanted to make more money. |
C.She was inspired by her trip for a BBC TV program. |
D.She hoped to present herself with a surprise. |
A.spring | B.summer | C.fall | D.winter |
A.She met many artists and craftspeople on her way to Britain. |
B.She spent a whole summer in Britain making crafts. |
C.She was asked to sew clothes, and curtains and made much money. |
D.Many people showed great interest in making things themselves. |
A.be grateful to what they have gained |
B.keep up with fashion |
C.stick to something interesting |
D.know more information about craft |
A.Making Christmas presents can only convey a bit of your love. |
B.People can find their artistic talent in making Christmas presents. |
C.A cup of hot cocoa can inspire you to make a creative present. |
D.It would take a long time to prepare a homemade Christmas present. |
The teams were pretty evenly matched. I will just call them Team One and Team Two. Nobody scored in the first period. Then came the second quarter. The Team One coach pulled out what must have been his first team and put in the scrubs(替补队员), except for his best player who now guarded the goal.
The game took a dramatic turn. I guess winning is important even when you’re five years old — because the Team Two coach left his best players in, and the Team One scrubs were no match for them. Team Two packed around the little guy who was now the Team One goalkeeper. He was an outstanding athlete, but he was no match for three or four who were also very good. Team Two began to score. The lone goalkeeper gave it everything he had, desperately throwing his body in front of incoming balls, trying bravely to stop them.
Team Two scored two goals in quick succession. It angered the young boy. He became a raging maniac — shouting, running, diving. With all the strength he could gather, he covered the boy who now had the ball, but that boy kicked it to another boy twenty feet away, and by the time he repositioned himself, it was too late — they scored a third goal.
I soon learned who the goalkeeper’s parents were. They were nice, decent-looking people. I could tell that his dad had just come from the office — he still had his suit and tie on. They yelled encouragement to their son. I became totally absorbed, watching the boy on the field and his parents on the sidelines.
After the third goal, the little kid changed. He didn’t quit, but he became quietly desperate and futility was written all over him. His father changed, too. He had been urging his son to try harder — yelling advice and encouragement. But then he became anxious. He tried to say that it was okay — to hang in there. He sorrowed for the pain his son was feeling.
After the fourth goal, I knew what was going to happen. The little boy fetched the ball from the net and handed it to the referee(裁判). He just stood there while huge tears rolled down both cheeks. He went to his knees, and he cried the tears of the helpless and brokenhearted.
At that moment, I saw the father start onto the field. His wife seized his arm and said, “Jim, don’t. You’ll embarrass him.” But he tore loose from her and ran onto the field. Suit, tie, dress shoe, and all — he charged onto the field, and he picked up his son so everybody would know that this was his boy, and he hugged him and held him and cried with him. I’ve never been so proud of a man in my life.
He carried him off the field, and when he got close to the sidelines I heard him say, “Scotty, I’m so proud of you. You were great out there. I want everybody to know that you are my son.”
“Daddy,” the boy sobbed. “I couldn’t stop them. I tried, Daddy, but they scored on me.”
“Scotty, it doesn’t matter how many times they scored on you. You’re my son, and I’m proud of you. I want you to go back there and finish the game. I know you want to quit, but you can’t. And, son, you’re going to get scored on again, but it doesn’t matter. In my eyes, you are the winner! Go on, now.”
The little guy ran back onto the field — and they scored two more times — but it was okay. Now in all viewers’ eyes, he is the Winner.
When you’re all alone, and you’re getting scored on — and you can’t stop them — it means a lot to know that it doesn’t matter to those who love you. In their eyes, so long as you don’t give up, you are the winner. And they are always proud of you.

A.went on smoothly | B.changed greatly |

B.She hoped her son could gather courage and cheer himself up. |
