    7．Until last summer I had a very comfortable life：winter vacations skiing and summer cruises．My parents spent a lot of money on a private school，so they could get me into a competitive middle school．Everything was about tomorrow，next year，my graduation．We never had to worry about today．
    Before last summer I never thought much about the people in the world who live day to day，every day，whose lives are controlled by poverty and hunger．Then I joined in a two-week intensive program．We lived in a"Tribal Village，"in a hot，dry open grassland in Arkansas，a state of the south-central United States．I am a tribal member in Mozambique，a country of southeast Africa．Every meal，I make the fire for my family，and feel the flames lick up my nostrils（鼻孔）as I blow to keep the fuel alive．I cook mush with vegetables．This is all my family is ever given．
    I feed the hen and three rabbits their dinner．I grow attached to the rabbits，even though I know I shouldn't．I name them．I'm not getting enough to eat； it's time to decide whether or not to kill the rabbits．I feel pain but it's a privileged child's pain because I know I will soon be eating again．That's not true for a lot of other children around the world．
    Growing up comfortably in the U．S．，I've never had to worry about my dinner，and even though this whole process was only a simulation，it changed my life．Now I believe in doing whatever I can to help find practical ways to defeat hunger．
    So I've become president of Roots and Shoots，a group working to improve local environments for people and animals．I'm also working to create a program at my high school called the"Safe Passage"trip to help young people in the Guatemala City dump．And I've got plans to do more．
    I'm often thinking of laboring in the hot sun and the millions who still do．Now，I try to live for today and stop worrying so much about the future．When I eat or feel full，I am grateful for this fortunate life and want to extend the same feeling to others．
    I believe in offering help to those who need it．
    24．What is true about the author before last summer？B
    A．Her life was under great pressure．
    B．Her life was well-planned．
    C．She didn't have to worry about the future．
    D．She had to worry about her dinner
    25．We can learn from the second paragraph thatC．
    A．the author raised some rabbits as pets
    B．the author took part in a two-week program in Africa
    C．the author had a very difficult life in the"Tribal Village"
    D．the author never thought about poor people after the program
    26．The author feel pain becauseC．
    A．she is a privileged child                
    B．she is not getting enough to eat
    C．she doesn't want to kill the rabbits        
    D．she can't go back to her regular life
    27．What does the underlined word"simulation"in the fourth paragraph probably mean？D
    A．Reality      
    B．Experience      
    C．Imagination       
    D．Imitation．

    分析 本文讲述了作者在Tribal Village体验生活后，从一个养尊处优，不知民间疾苦者转变成一个以具体的行动去帮助他人的人．

    解答 24．B 细节理解题．根据第一段第二句My parents spent a lot of money on a private school，so they could get me into a competitive middle school．父母花钱让其读私立便于进入好的中学．作者的人生得到了很好的安排．故选B；根据第一段第一句Until last summer I had a very comfortable life：winter vacations skiing and summer cruises．可知，作者过着舒适的生活：寒假去滑雪，暑假坐游轮．所以，作者的生活没有压力，故A错误；根据第一段最后两句Everything was about tomorrow，next year，my graduation．We never had to worry about today．无需担心现在，唯有明年的毕业．故C错误；根据第四段第一句…I've never had to worry about my dinner无三餐之忧，故D错误．
    25． C 推理判断题．根据第二段的大意，第一句话以及后面的描述Every meal，I make the fire for my family，and feel the flames lick up my nostrils as I blow to keep the fuel alive．I cook mush with vegetables．This is all my family is ever given．可知，作者在去Tribal Village之前，从未想过世界上每天有如此多的人生活在贫穷和饥饿之中．作者每日生火做饭，用嘴吹以保火不灭．能吃到的也就是面糊和蔬菜．由此可知，生活的艰苦和困难．故选C．
    26．C 细节理解题．根据第三段五、六句it's time to decide whether or not to kill the rabbits．I feel pain but it's a privileged child's pain because I know I will soon be eating again．可知，作者本不想杀它们的．故选C．
    27．D 词义猜测题．根据第二段可知，作者在Tribal Village体验艰苦生活；再由划线单词所在句子以及前面一句可知，现实中的作者是在美国舒服地长大，无三餐之忧，所以这种生活只是模拟体验．故选D．

    点评 阅读理解题测试考生在阅读基础上的逻辑推理能力，要求考生根据文章所述事件的逻辑关系，对未说明的趋势或结局作出合理的推断；或根据作者所阐述的观点理论，对文章未涉及的现象、事例给以解释．考生首先要仔细阅读短文，完整了解信息，准确把握作者观点．

    12．Doctors say anger can be an extremely damaging emotion，unless you learn how to deal with it．They warn that anger can lead to heart disease，stomach problems，headaches，emotional problems and possibly cancer．
    （26）FSome people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way．Others burst with anger，and scream and yell．But other people keep their anger inside．They cannot or will not express it．This is called repressing anger．
    For years many doctors thought that repressing（压抑） anger was more dangerous to a person's health than expressing it．They said that when a person is angry，the brain releases the same hormones （荷尔蒙）．They speed the heart rate，raise blood pressure，or sugar into the blood，etc．（27）A
    （28）GThey say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of th anger，then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about．If it is，they say，"（29）EWait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably．"
    Doctors say that a good way to deal with anger is to find humor in the situation that has made you angry．（30）B

    A．In general，repressing anger was harmful．
    B．They said that laughter is much healthier than anger．
    C．Expressing anger violently is more harmful than repressing it．
    D．Anger may cause you a cancer．
    E．Do not express your anger while angry．
    F．Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time．
    G．Doctors say the solution is learning how to deal with anger．

    12．I believe that my country，Poland，is a perfect example for a place where food is particularly important．When we were little children，we began to understand how much a loaf of bread meant to our parents-to some it might sound silly but for me the custom of kissing bread before you started cutting it was simply amazing．It's not so common nowadays to treat food that way，since you hardly ever bake your own bread．Besides，everyone would call you crazy if you tried to kiss every bread roll before you ate them!But though we no longer make our food from scratch （起点），some customs have been kept-that's why I feel so sorry every time I have to throw any food away-even though I no longer live with my parents and nobody would blame me for this anymore!
    Many people of our nation are still working as farmers，eating what they grow and harvest and therefore enjoying everything more．It's widely known that you value more anything that needs your effort in the first place．In most homes in Poland，especially those of farmers，the whole family would try and have their meals together-extremely difficult now，but so rewarding!You can share other members'troubles and successes，give your children some attention，or just sit down for a moment，instead of rushing through life aimlessly．Furthermore，your body，and stomach in particular will be very grateful for such a time!
    In Poland，a wedding，Christmas or even a birthday is celebrated with a great meal．Women in the house get together and cook，sometimes for a few days before the event，and the extremely good or unusual food will be remembered and widely talked about．
    You cannot over-value the importance of food in the country．What's more，almost everyone in Poland will be as interested in the topic as I am．

    A．found people were crazy about bread
    B．began to realize the importance of food

    Parents may think they’re smart about where they store medicines, but their kids are smarter. Nearly 60,000 young children are rushed to the hospital every year after getting into medicines not meant for them, according to a new report from Safe Kids Worldwide.

    The report finds little connection between what parents know about storing medicines safely and what they actually do. Nine out of 10 parents know that medicines should be stored up and away out of reach and sight, but 7 out of 10 of them admit not doing that. They leave medicines out on kitchen counters, sinks and sofas, believing babies and toddlers(学步者)aren’t tall enough or strong enough to reach them. Unfortunately, they probably can. Children as young as a month have ended up in an emergency department because they’d been poisoned by getting into a medicine that was left within reach.

    Most poisonings related to medicines---particularly among babies and toddlers---occur within their home. Kids develop rapidly and they want to explore their environment. At certain ages they have a lot of hand-to-mouth activity, and so it’s very common for them to explore their environment and then try to taste what they find.

    The new Safe Kids worldwide report includes a survey of 2,000 parents with children under age 6. While the number of children visiting an emergency department for accidental poisonings had declined since the 2010 maximum, the decline has slowed in recent years.

    Prescription and over-the-counter medicines cause the most severe poisonings, but vitamins and supplements(补充品)can also cause problems. There are steps families can take to lower the risk for an accidental medicine poisoning.

    1.Why are children poisoned according to the text?

    A. Some of the medicines at home taste nice

    B. There is something poisonous in medicines

    C. Kids have easy access to medicines at home

    D. Kids are curious to explore the environment

    2.What can we learn from the text?

    A. Vitamins and supplements can do good to kids

    B. The team made a survey of 2,000 kids under age 6

    C. 600 parents surveyed could keep medicines properly

    D. Kids are usually smart at storing medicines at home

    3.What could be the best title for the text?

    A. Parents’ Casual Behavior Leads to Kids Poisoned

    B. The Number of Kids Poisoned Has Declined Lately

    C. Nearly 60,000 Children Are Poisoned by Medicines

    D. Kids Are Facing the Risk of Being Poisoned at Home
