　　(2017·安徽，C)

　　When 19yearold Sophia Giorgi said she was thinking of volunteering to help the MakeAWish Foundation (基金会)，nobody understood what she was talking about. But Sophia knew just how important MakeAWish could be because this special organization had helped to make a dream come true for one of her best friends. We were interested in finding out more, so we went along to meet Sophia and listen to what she had to say.

　　Sophia told us that MakeAWish is a worldwide organization that started in the United States in 1980. “It's a charity (慈善机构)that helps children who have got very serious illnesses. MakeAWish helps children feel happy even though they are sick, by making their wishes and dreams come true，” Sophia explained.

　　We asked Sophia how MakeAWish had first started. She said it had all begun with a very sick young boy called Chris, who had been dreaming for a long time of becoming a policeman. Sophia said lots of people had wanted to find a way to make Chris's dream come true，so with everybody's help, Chris, only seven years old at the time, had been a “policeman” for a day. “When people saw how delighted Chris was when his dream came true, they decided to try and help other sick children too, and that was the beginning of MakeAWish，”explained Sophia.

　　Sophia also told us the Foundation tries to give children and their families a special, happy time. A MakeAWish volunteer visits the families and asks the children whatever they would wish for if they could have anything in the world. Sophia said the volunteers were important because they were the ones who helped to make the wishes come true. They do this either by providing things that were necessary, or by raising money or helping out in what way they can.

　　文章大意：本文借Sophia之口，让我们了解了MakeAWish Foundation——一个全球性的慈善组织，它帮助身患重病的孩子实现他们的愿望。

　　8．Sophia found out about MakeAWish because her best friend had ________.

　　A．benefited from it

　　B．volunteered to help it

　　C．dreamed about it

　　D．told the author about it

　　答案：A　细节理解题。根据第一段的“But Sophia knew just how important Make

　　A Wish could be because this special organization had helped to make a dream come true for one of her best friends .”可知，因为Make

　　A Wish曾经帮助Sophia的一个朋友实现了愿望，所以Sophia才知道这个组织是多么的重要，才了解了这一组织的更多内容。

　　9．According to Sophia,

　　MakeAWish ________.

　　A．is an international charity

　　B．was understood by nobody at first

　　C．raises money for very poor families

　　D．started by drawing the interest of the public

　　答案：A　推理判断题。根据第二段的第一、二句可知，Make

　　A Wish是一个全球性的组织，而且是一个慈善机构，故A项正确；大家不理解的是Sophia去当志愿者帮助Make

　　A Wish，而不是没人理解Make

　　A Wish，故排除B项；Make

　　A Wish是帮助身患重病的孩子实现愿望，而不是为穷苦家庭募捐，故C项错误；D项不是文章的内容。

　　10．What is said about Chris in Paragraph 3?

　　A．He has been a policeman since he was seven.

　　B．He gave people the idea of starting MakeAWish.

　　C．He wanted people to help make his dream come true.

　　D．He was the first child MakeAWish helped after it had been set up.

　　答案：B　推理判断题。由第三段可知，Chris当了一天的警察，故排除A项；人们帮助Chris实现了他当警察的愿望，而且这就是Make

　　A Wish的开始，故B项正确；很多人想帮助Chris，但文章未提Chris想让人们帮助他实现梦想，故排除C项；D项不是文章的内容。

　　11．Which of the following is true about MakeAWish volunteers?

　　A．They are important for making wishes come true.

　　B．They try to help children get over their illnesses.

　　C．They visit sick children to make them feel special.

　　D．They provide what is necessary to make MakeAWish popular.

　　答案：A　推理判断题。根据最后一段的“Sophia said the volunteers were important because they were the ones who helped to make the wishes come true.”可知A项正确；志愿者不能帮助孩子们克服他们的疾病，故排除B项；志愿者们拜访孩子们是为了帮助他们实现愿望，而不是使他们感到特别，故C项错误；志愿者提供给孩子们必要的东西是为了帮助他们，而不是使Make

　　A Wish受欢迎，故D项错误。

　　阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

　　Scientists have found what look like caves on Mars(火星), and say they could be protecting life from the planet’s terrible environment.

　　The first caves discovered beyond the Earth appear as seven mysterious black dots on the pictures sent back by NASA’s Mars Odyssey orbiter. Each as large as a football field, they may be openings into natural caves below the Martian surface.

　　“If there is life on Mars, there is a good chance you’d find it in caves,” said Jut Wynne, one of the researchers who noticed the features while working on a US Geological Survey Mars Cave Detection Program.

　　Jonathan Clarke, a geologist with the Mars Society of Australia, yesterday described the discovery as exciting.

　　One photo taken at night by an infrared imager(红外线成像器) showed one hole to be unusually warm,suggesting hot air trapped during the day is flowing out.

　　“I said:‘Wow, that’s a cave. ’” Dr. Clarke said excitedly. “People have been looking for these for a long time;now we have found them.”

　　He agreed such caves would be perfect places to hunt for life escaping from the bitterly cold,radiation-soaked(充满辐射的),dry surface.

　　“Tiny drops of water could collect inside,” he said. “If there are gases coming out, they could provide energy for a whole range of bacteria. A cave is also a protection from radiation; the surface of Mars is exposed to high levels of space radiation.

　　The caves probably formed when tube-shaped lava flows(管状岩浆流) spread across the planet long ago. The outside of the tubes cooled,forming solid walls, while something hotter inside allowed the remaining lava to flow out, forming caves.”

　　1. What does the passage mainly talk about?

　　A. How the caves were formed on Mars.

　　B. How scientists found these caves on Mars.

　　C. Caves on Mars may be full of hot air or a sign of life.

　　D. Scientists have completely recognized the surface of Mars.

　　2. We can learn from the passage that　.　

　　A. water has already been found on Mars

　　B. the scientists found all the caves at night

　　C. it is certain that there is life in these caves

　　D. the surface of Mars is bitterly cold,radiation-soaked and dry

　　3. According to the passage,Dr. Clarke was so excited because　.　

　　A. such caves could provide energy for life

　　B. they had finally found the caves on Mars

　　C. such caves would be perfect places to hunt for life

　　D. scientists had long been looking for these caves

　　4. Necessary condition for life on Mars mentioned in the passage may include　.　

　　A. lava and energy

　　B. water and radiation from space

　　C. gases and lava

　　D. water and protection from radiation
