On the bus from Boston back to my school，my feet ached as I thought of the eightyearold girl who completed her fifth walk；the volunteers with encouraging energy；the teenagers with attitude in their voice and cell phones in their ears.In all their eyes，there was a glimmer of hope and true concern for others，not just for themselves. Too many people think only in terms of selfimprovement，rather than humanrace improvement.People have thrown compassion and philanthropy(慈善行为) out of the window，seeing only themselves and money to be made，forgetting about the people who are trying to survive each day. As I stay up late to finish homework，these thoughts surface in my mind，as well as this recurring question：How can someone not care about the 30,000 children who die each day from preventable and treatable diseases？How can anyone pretend it does not affect you when it does？We are living on this planet together，and should be working as one to make sure everyone has a pleasant experience，rather than letting people suffer from starvation or disease.We need to live together under the umbrella of love as inhabitants of the same world. 1．What were the 40,000 people doing according to the first paragraph?

A．Appreciative. B．Doubtful. C．Disapproving. D．Cautious. 答案 C 解析 推理判断题。根据第三段可知，那些只知道自我提高的人不关心他人，以自我为中心；根据最后一段后半部分可知，作者认为我们应该关爱他人。由此可推知，作者并不认同那些只注重自我修养的人的做法。 3．We can infer from the last paragraph that the author . A．didn’t finish the 20mile walk B．regretted finishing his homework late C．was too tired to do his homework D．was concerned about the suffering children 答案 D 解析 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段可知，作者认为我们同在一个星球，应该努力让每一个人过得开心，而不是看着别人遭受挨饿或疾病的痛苦而不管不顾。由此可知，作者关心那些挨饿和生病的儿童。 4．Which of the following could be the best title for the passage? A．Care for Others B．Walk for Hunger C．Keep Fit Through Walking D．Live Together in Peace 答案 B 解析 标题归纳题。本文作者主要讲述了自己参加Walk for Hunger这一慈善活动的感受并借此号召人们关心和帮助那些挨饿和生病的儿童。由此可知，B项为最佳标题。 B Geniuses amaze us，impress us and make us all a little jealous.How do they differ from the average people？Scientists are working hard to figure out that answer.Tune in to the National Geographic Channel to find out about the discoveries they’re making in the series My Brilliant Brain. When Marc Yu was only two years old，he began to play the piano.After a year，he started learning pieces by Beethoven.Now he’s a worldfamous concert pianist at age eight.He learns newer and more difficult pieces with ease and can identify any note he hears.He seems to be specially designed for music.In Born Genius，National Geographic looks at the science behind child prodigies(神童) to explain why some children seem to be born without limits. Genius didn’t come naturally to Tommy McHugh.It came only after he nearly died from bleeding in his brain.After recovering，McHugh’s head was filled with new thoughts and pictures.So，he began to express them in the form of poetry and art.Now，he’s a seemingly unstoppable creative machine.Sufferers of autism(自闭症) and brain injury have shown that great mental ability can sometimes come from damage or disease.Accidental Genius explores this puzzling relationship. Can normal people be trained to be geniuses？Susan Polger has shown no signs of extraordinary intelligence.Yet，during her childhood，she studied thousands of chess patterns and learned to recognize them immediately.As a result，she was able to beat skilled adult players by age 10 and can now play up to five games at the same time without even seeing the boards.Make Me a Genius examines what it takes to turn an ordinary brain into that of a genius. If becoming a genius were easy，we’d all be one.Yet，there is much more to super intelligence than simply being born lucky.Learn more about amazing brains this month on National Geographic’s My Brilliant Brain. 5．The author takes Marc Yu as an example to show that a child prodigy is .
