Buy One Give One
Buy One Give One (B1G1)is a Singapore-based business and non-profit organization with a job to create a world full of giving.We help businesses around the world give back in meaningful ways so that they can create measurable and long-lasting influence.Since 2007,we have worked with more than 1,600 businesses creating more than 88 million giving activities.
Our business allows consumers,who may feel disconnected from the problems of the developing world,to become involved in social problems while still purchasing for themselves.For example,shoe brands like TOMS promise to donate one pair of shoes for every pair purchased.Soapbox gives soap to a needy child with every purchase.Watch company WeWood plants a tree every time you buy a watch.They have helped socially-conscious consumers purchase products and feel good about providing help to others.
See what some of our members say about being a part of B1G1.
*Karen Ormerod 
Every product purchased at our store influences the lives of disadvantaged people in the world.I had never imagined I would be operating a business that could change people's lives.We are making a real difference by just doing what we normally do.It is a wonderful experience.
*Ben Baker 
What a good way of distributing resources to where they need to be,giving people the gifts of giving,and adding value to organizations along the way.We have already made 160,000 giving activities through B1G1.Giving has become a necessary part of our everyday business.It's absolutely brilliant.
B1G1 focuses on the influence of giving on people's lives rather than simply the amounts donated.Our programs stress giving habitually in order to create growing influence around the world.When you join the B1G1 giving program,you create your own unique giving stories.
We do hope you can become a member of us!

7.The Great Fire of London started in the very early hours of 2 September 1666.In four days it destroyed more than three-quarters of the old city,where most of the houses were wooden and close together.One hundred thousand people became homeless,but only a few lost their lives.
The fire started on Sunday morning in the house of the King's baker in Pudding Lane.The baker,with his wife and family,was able to get out through a window in the roof.A strong wind blew the fire from the bakery into a small hotel next door.Then it spread quickly into Thames Street.That was the beginning.
By eight o'clock three hundred houses were on fire.On Monday nearly a kilometer of the city was burning along the River Thames.Tuesday was the worst day.The fire destroyed many well-known buildings,old St Paul's and the Guildhall among them.
Samuel Pepys,the famous writer,wrote about the fire.People threw their things into the river.Many poor people stayed in their houses until the last moment.Birds fell out of the air because of the heat.
The fire stopped only when the King finally ordered people to destroy hundreds of buildings in the path of the fire.With nothing left to burn,the fire became weak and finally died out.
After the fire,Christopher Wren,the architect,wanted a city with wider streets and fine new houses of stone.In fact,the streets are still narrow,but he did build more than fifty churches,among them new St Paul's.
The fire caused great pain and loss,but after it London was a better place:a city for the future and not just of the past.

28.It seems that the writer of the text was most sorry for the fact thatC.
A.some people lost their lives.
B.the birds in the sky were killed by the fire.
C.many famous buildings were destroyed.
D.the King's bakery was burned down.
29.Why did the writer cite(引用)Samuel Pepys?D
A.Because Pepys was among those putting out the fire.
B.Because Pepys also wrote about the fire.
C.To show that poor people suffered most.
D.To give the reader a clearer picture of the fire.
30.How was the fire put out according to the text?D
A.The king and his soldiers came to help.
B.All the wooden houses in the city were destroyed.
C.People managed to get enough water from the river.
D.Houses standing in the direction of the fire were pulled down.
31.Which of the following were reasons for the rapid spread of the big fire?B
(a)There was a strong wind.
(b)The streets were very narrow.
(c)Many houses were made of wood.
(d)There was not enough water in the city.
(e)People did not discover the fire earlier.
A.(a)and(b)    
B.(a),(b)and(c)

2.Recently I and other Red Cross volunteers met a group of victims from Hurricane Katrina.We were there,as mental health professionals,to offer"psychological first aid"and I was struck by the simple healing power of presence.As we walked in the gate to the shelter,we were greeted with a burst of gratitude  from the first person we met.I felt appreciated,but also guilty,because I hadn't really done anything yet.
I first realized the power of presence many years ago when a friend's mother passed away unexpectedly.I had received a call saying she had just passed away.I wanted to rush down there immediately,but didn't want to intrude(打扰)on this very personal period of sadness.I was torn about what to do.Another friend with me then said,"Just go.Just be there."I did,and I will never regret it.
Since then,I have not hesitated to be in the presence of others.Once I sat at the bedside of a young man suffering from the pain of his AIDS-related dying.He was not awake,and obviously unaware of others'presence.However,the atmosphere was by no means solemn.His family,playing guitars and singing,allowed him to be present with them as though he were still fully alive.
In my life,I am repeatedly struck by the healing power of presence.In it,none of us are truly alone.It is not only something we give to others but also changes me for the better.

In addition,TiangongⅡhas an air detector(空气探测器),and it can be used to check and deal with more than 20 dangerous gases.Also,designers placed exercise equipment in the space lab to help astronauts keep healthy and its communication systems also allow astronauts to receive and reply to emails and make calls to family and friends.
