1、   People do volunteer work for many reasons. Let’s look at several top reasons. After each reason, there is an example. Check (打上钩) the box if the example matches (与…相一致) what you want to get from the volunteer experience:

You want to help in a place which is important to you. For example, you might choose to clean up the city parks because you want them to be better places.

You want to meet others. When I moved to the town I now live in, I volunteered at my son’s school because I wanted to meet other people with their children.

You want to learn something new. 我的儿子过去很喜欢戏剧，但是他害怕上台。After watching so many plays on stage (在舞台上）by others, he now volunteers for one theater.他想得到一些训练并且慢慢地学到舞台经验。

Which did you check? Your reason or reasons for becoming a volunteer will help guide you along your way. Maybe you didn’t check any. That is fine. There are other reasons why you want to become a volunteer. Although everyone has his or her own reason, becoming a volunteer will open a new door for us and may change our life, and you will feel like you really make a difference!

21、Did you have an experience to achieve something really amazing in life? Well, Greg Mortenson wanted to climb a mountain, but he ended up helping thousands of people to have a better life.

Greg’s story began with failure. In 1993, he set out to climb K2, the world’s second highest mountain. But Greg never made it to the top. After five days, he stumbled (踉跄) into the village of Korphe in northern Pakistan, injured (受伤) and hungry. The kind villagers there looked after him for several days.

Greg saw that the villagers were very poor and hungry, and some of them were ill. Also, the village school didn’t have a roof (屋顶) and the children wrote on the ground with sticks. Greg knew he wanted to do something to help. “I’ll build you a school,” he told the villagers. “I promise.”

Greg went back home to the USA to raise money for the school. He even lived in the car to save money! Finally he went back to Korphe and built the school. But this was just the beginning of something bigger! Later, Greg’s organization has built around 80 schools and runs many others in Pakistan and other countries too.

He does many other things to help people in poor countries. He has got many prizes, but it’s the smiles of the children he has helped that make him happy!

Greg wrote a best-selling book about his story called Three Cups of Tea. It’s an interesting and exciting book which tells us what ordinary (普通的) people can do with courage and determination (决心)!

22、   Dolphins are not fish. They are mammals(哺乳动物). They live in groups and speak to each other in their own language. But they are quite different from almost all land animals. Their brain is as big as men’s and they live a long life---at least 20 or 30 years.

Like some animals, dolphins use sounds to help them find their way around. They also use these sounds to talk to each other and help them find food. They do not use their ears to receive sounds, but use the jaw —the lower part of the mouth.

It is strange that dolphins are friendly to men, and for thousands of years, there are many stories about dolphins and men. In the 19th century, in a dangerous part of the sea near New Zealand, there was a dolphin. The seamen liked him very much and gave him a very good name, Jack. From 1871 to 1903, Jack met all the ships and boats in the area and showed them the way. In 1903 a passenger on a boat with the name of The Penguin shot(拍照) a long time in the area. Jack guided the boat The Penguin until the passenger finished.

Today, some people still kill dolphins, but many countries in the world now protect them. Dolphins are humans’ friends. Let’s all be nice to them.

【1】How do dolphins find their way?

A.They use their noses to smell the way. B.They use their ears to hear the the way.

C.They use their eyes to see the way. D.They use sounds to find the way.

【2】The underlined word “jaw” means _______ in Chinese.

A.下颚 B.嘴巴 C.嘴唇 D.鼻子

【3】Who was Jack?

A.The writer. B.A dolphin. C.A seaman. D.The passenger.

【4】The dolphin guided the ships for about _______.

A.32 years B.9 years C.41 years D.23 years

【5】According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?

A.Dolphins are not fish. B.Dolphins are kind and friendly to people.

C.Dolphins don’t live in groups. D.Dolphins can live a long life.
