Donations make up a massive 85% of the charitys income, yet research shows that many donors dont always feel their money makes much differencealthough they continue to give generously. 　　A fresh new approach to giving will leave donors in no doubt that their support makes all the difference. The NSPCCs Director of Fundraising, Giles Pegram, explains, In the past, donors tended to see their contribution as a mere drop in the ocean, and child abuse as a vast problem. We want to make them realize that there is a real link between how much money they give and the number of children we can help. We want people to feel connected to the work they are funding, by creating a direct link between their gift and what it will achieve for children. 　　The new scheme establishes a transparent relationship between the NSPCC and its supporters. In return for a commitment from donors to give a regular monthly gift of ￡10 or more, the NSPCC promises to be fully accountable to them. Giles Pegram explains, Donors will get regular updates on how their money turns into practical help for children. Theyll be sent news direct from NSPCC projects and stories of individual children their money has helped. Well give feedback on how their donations are being used and the difference that they as individuals are making to abused children. 　　This new approach means that individual donors will have a good idea of how their money is helping. They will also have control over the kinds of communication they get from the NSPCCsuch as email or letters, for exampleand how often they receive updates, as well as being given the direct phone number of an NSPCC staff member. 　　Above all, donors know that the NSPCC, uniquely among childrens charities, has remained focused on one single goal throughout its 120-year historyto end cruelty to children. That is its strength: NSPCC workers channel huge passion and expertise into problems which are as pressing in 2005 as they were in 1884. 　　In summary, according to Pegram, The NSPCC has brought child abuse, and particularly sexual abuse, out into the open. People are outraged by the idea of child abuse but they dont always know what they can do to help. This new scheme will connect people directly to the work which their money is enabling to happen. 　　1.According to the passage, the donors _____. 　　[A] think their donation is meaningless [B] underestimate the importance of their help 　　[C] mostly want to give up this kind of charity [D] are dissatisfied with the NSPCCs lack of transparency 　　2.The fresh new approach taken by NSPCC will _____. 　　[A] establish a direct link between recipients and donors 　　[B] increase the number of children who can receive this kind of help 　　[C] make the donors better informed about the practical use of their gift 　　[D] call on more and more people to take part in charity activities 　　3.According to Giles Pegram, which of the following is probably NOT true? 　　[A] The donors used to exaggerate the seriousness of child abuse. 　　[B] The donors have the right to know how their money was spent. 　　[C] The NSPCC should make efforts to keep in contact with the donors. 　　[D] The donors gift means much to the abused children. 　　4.The NSPCC is an organization that _____. 　　[A] can not only prevent but also end abuse of children [B] is different from other childrens charities in its purpose 　　[C] is running a new scheme to save itself from economic collapse [D] is trying to improve its relationship with the donors 　　5.The best title for this passage is _____. 　　[A] Tackling Cruelty to Children [B] A Fresh New Scheme 　　[C] A Transparent Relationship IS Needed [D] Link NSPCC and Its Supporters 　　答案：1.B 2.C 3.A 4.D 5.A 　　核心词汇或超纲词汇 　　approach接近;方法，步骤，途径 　　commitment承诺;约定;承担义务;致力，献身 　　accountable应负责的，有责任的，可解释的 　　channel引导，引入;开辟 　　全文翻译 　　如果没有了占慈善收入85%之多的志愿捐赠的话，全国防止虐待儿童协会为受虐待儿童所做的工作将会在六个月内终止。但是有研究表明，尽管许多捐赠者仍继续慷慨地捐款，但是他们并不总是认为自己捐赠的钱能起到很大的作用。 　　一个新的方案将会使捐赠者确信他们的支持意义重大。全国防止虐待儿童协会的募捐监管人贾尔斯?皮格勒姆做出如下解释：过去，捐赠者倾向于把自己的贡献看成是大海中的一滴水，而将虐待儿童看成一个非常大的问题。我们想让捐赠者认识到，在他们所捐赠的款项和我们所能帮助的孩子的数目之间有着现实的联系。我们想通过在捐赠者的馈赠和这些馈赠给孩子们带来的东西之间创建一个直接的纽带，让人们感觉到他们与自己正在为之提供资金的工作联系在一起。 　　这个新的方案在全国防止虐待儿童协会和它的支持者之间建立了一种透明的关系。作为对捐赠者定期每月十英镑或者更多的捐赠的回报，该协会允诺对他们全权负责。贾尔斯?皮格勒姆解释说: 捐赠者将会定期地收到更新资料，被告知他们所捐赠的钱中有多少转化成了对孩子的实际帮助。捐赠者还会从全国防止虐待儿童协会工程那里直接收到消息，并获知自己的捐款所帮助的单个儿童的故事。我们也将会给捐赠者反馈，告诉他们的捐款有多少正在使用之中，以及他们作为个体对受虐待儿童所做的贡献。 　　这个新的方案意味着，单个的捐赠者将会对自己捐款所起的帮助作用有一个清楚的了解。他们也将自行决定从协会那里得到的通讯方式，譬如电子邮件或信件及多长时间收到更新的资料，乃至直接得到协会工作人员的电话号码。 　　最重要的是，捐赠者知道，与其他儿童慈善组织不同的是，全国防止虐待儿童协会在它120年的历史中始终如一关注的惟一一个目标是：终止虐待儿童，这也是他们的力量所在。有了这种力量，该协会的工作人员可以贯注极大的热情和专业技术去处理一些问题，这些问题在2005年和1884年一样依然很紧迫。 　　概括地说，据皮格勒姆所述，全国防止虐待儿童协会把虐待儿童尤其是性虐待问题公开出来。人们对虐待儿童问题表示愤怒，却不知道自己能做些什么提供帮助。这个新的方案将把人们和他们的捐款能够实现的工作直接联系起来。
