26、Nobody knows the value of a good doll better than Jandrisevits. “Dolls have a power we don’t completely understand,” she said. It’s a conclusion she came to while working as a social worker using dolls to help her young clients adapt to their changing medical situations. Many of the kids saw themselves in those dolls. But for the kids missing a limb or who had lost their hair, there were none they could relate to.
So, seven years ago, when a friend revealed that her child was stuck in self-doubt and self-distrust, Jandrisevits, now 49, knew what might help the youth through this potentially challenging period. “It’s hard to tell a kid, ‘You are perfect the way you are,’ and to build self-esteem (自尊) that way, but never offer them anything that looks like them,”she says.
Jandrisevits went about changing that. She crafted a doll by hand — using fabric, stitching, and markers — that resembled (像) her friend’s child and sent it off. After the friend posted a photo online of the happy child and doll, another woman asked Jandrisevits to make a doll that looked like her baby, who was missing a leg.
Word spread, and soon Jandrisevits was making dolls for children with scars, birthmarks, facial deformities(畸形), — in short, a doll that looked like them. She quit her job and started a nonprofit, A Doll Like Me.
Working out of her home in Milwaukee, from photos sent by parents or caregivers, it takes Jandrisevits roughly three days to craft only one doll. A GoFundMe page helps her cover costs and allows her to donate her services. She hasn’t charged for a doll since she began her nonprofit.
In all, she’s made more than 400 dolls. The waiting list is long, but Jandriscvits will never give up. As she explains on her GoFundMe page, “Every kid, regardless of gender, ethnicity, age, medical issue, or body type, should look into the sweet face of a doll and see their own.”
【1】What made Jandrisevits realize the value of dolls?
A.The influence of dolls on her.
B.Her working experience.
C.The changing medical situations.
D.Her relation to the unlucky kids.
【2】What does the underlined word ―that‖ refer to in paragraph 3?
A.Children’s concern about their looks.
B.The problems faced by the child of a friend.
C.The challenging period the youth are going through.
D.The fact that words alone fail to help build self-esteem.
【3】What can be inferred about Jandrisevits’ making dolls?
A.It targets children with mental problems.
B.It is time-consuming but meaningful.
C.It is thought poorly of by people.
D.It brings in a good fortune.
【4】Which of the following best describes Jandrisevits?
A.Creative and caring.
B.Ambitious and devoted.
C.Considerate and sensitive.
D.Knowledgeable and generous.
27、Tim Richter and his wife, Linda, had taught for over 30 years near Buffalo, New York—he in computers, she in special education. “Teaching means everything to us.” Tim would say. In April 1998, he learned he would need a heart operation. It was the kind of news that leads to some serious thinking about life's purpose.
Not long after the surgery, Tim saw a brochure describing Imagination Library, a program started by Dolly Parton's foundation (基金会) that mailed a book every month to children from birth to age five in the singer's home town of Sevier, Tennessee. “I thought, maybe Linda and I could do something like this when we retire.” Tim recalls. He placed the brochure on his desk, “as a reminder”.
Five years later, now retired and with that brochure still on the desk, Tim clicked on imaginationlibrary.com. The program had been opened up to partners who could take advantage of book and postage discounts.
The quality of the books was of great concern to the Richters. Rather than sign up online, they went to Dollywood for a looksee. “We didn't want to give the children rubbish.” says Linda. The books—reviewed each year by teachers, literacy specialists, and Dollywood board members—included classics such as Ezra Jack Keats's The Snowy Day and newer books like Anna Dewdney's Llama Llama series.
Satisfied, the couple set up the Richter Family Foundation and got to work. Since 2004, they have shipped more than 12,200 books to preschoolers in their area. Megan Williams, a mother of four, is more than appreciative:“This program introduces us to books I've never heard of.”
The Richters spend about $400 a month sending books to 200 children. “Some people sit there and wait to die.” says Tim. “Others get as busy as they can in the time they have left.”
【1】What led Tim to think seriously about the meaning of life?
A. The news from the Web. B. His love for teaching.
C. The influence of his wife. D. His health problem.
【2】What did Tim want to do after learning about Imagination Library?
A. Give out brochures.
B. Write books for children
C. Do something similar..
D. Retire from being a teacher.
【3】According to the text, Dolly Parton is ________.
A. a wellknown surgeon
B. a singer born in Tennessee
C. a mother of a fouryearold
D. a computer programmer
【4】What can we learn from Tim's words in the last paragraph?
A. He considers his efforts worthwhile.
B. He wonders why some people are so busy.
C. He tries to save those waiting to die.
D. He needs more money to help the children.

31、根据文中上下文及所给的首字母,写出各单词的正确、完全形式。
Several years ago, when I was working in a school, a thin boy showed up in my office. It was David. His head teacher had referred him to me. “This boy has lost his family,“ he wrote. “He is very sad and r【1】 to talk to others, and I'm very w【2】 about him. Can you help?”
Sometimes the best thing one can do is to listen openly and patiently.
The first two times we met, David didn't say a word. He sat there, only looking up to look at the children's drawings on the wall behind me. I suggested we play a game of chess. He n【3】. After that, he played chess with me every Wednesday afternoon—in complete s【4】, without a word.
Usually, he arrived earlier than agreed, took the chess b【5】and pieces from the shelf and began setting them up before I even got a chance to sit down. It seemed as if he e【6】 my company. But why did he never look at me?
"Perhaps he simply needs someone to s【7】 his pain with, "I thought. Perhaps he sensed that I respect his suffering." Some months later, when we were playing chess, he looked up at me suddenly.
"It's your t【8】,” he said.
After that day, David started talking. He got friends in school and joined a bicycle club. Now he has really started to live his own life.
Maybe I gave David something. But I also learned that one, w【9】 any words, can reach out to another person. All it takes is a hug, a shoulder to cry on, a friendly touch, and an ear for the w【10】 heart.
