Christmas Eve means a warm get-together with friends, a candlelight dinner, or perhaps a celebration at a pub for students. But, for Cai Yingjie, the night has a different meaning: helping beggars(乞丐)and the homeless(people without homes).

Cai, who is a student in journalism at Tsinghua, could be found at Beijing’s Wudaokou Light Railway Station that special evening. When she saw an old beggar, she took the cold, rough hands of the woman with her warm, clean hands, and gave the woman some warm bread and helped her put on a pair of new gloves.

The woman was surprised for a few seconds, then burst into tears, saying “for the first time I feel respected”.

Cai said, “A beggar’s life is very hard. That’s why I want to help them.”

Cai was one of 14 Tsinghua students spending Christmas Eve among the poor. They walked in the cold wind along the streets from 4 to 7 pm on Friday, visiting 15 beggars in Beijing’s Haidian District.

They brought bread and gloves with them, and stopped to greet beggars and offer them some of the warm food. Each beggar greeted them with a look of surprise.

“I know the activity can’t help much, but it’s meant to show our respect and care for beggars and the homeless who have been neglected for so long,” said Sun, head of the group. “And Christmas is a good time for that.”

1.What does Christmas Eve mean to the 14 Tsinghua students?

A.Taking 15 beggars to Tsinghua.

B.Getting together with friends.

C.Showing care to the beggars and the homeless.

D.Selling bread and gloves to the beggars.

2.What does the beggar mean by saying “for the first time I feel respected”?

A.The beggar has been waiting for Cai for long.

B.The beggar hasn’t been shown care for so long.

C.The beggar has been respecting Cai for a long time.

D.This is the first time the beggar has seen Tsinghua students.

3.What did each beggar feel when they received greetings?

A.Sad.                                 B.Amazed.

C.Frightened.                            D.Proud.

4.The word “neglected” in the last passage means _______.

A.protected                             B.found

C.taken care of                           D.given no enough care

The Coalition for the Homeless is an organization that seeks to address the needs of the homeless population in the United States. It is a network of offices, some of which provide food and houses for the homeless population, and some of which fight for the passing of laws that would give every American the right to a place to call home. According to the Coalition’s studies, of over two hundred million people living in the United States, up to three million are homeless—and the number is still growing. Since the late 1970s, fast-rising house prices, large cuts in government supported housing programs, and economic recession(经济衰退) have make it impossible for many Americans to meet housing costs. Sadly, this has resulted in a number of persons being forced to leave their homes and/or unable to find new affordable homes. According to another research, families with children appear to be the fastest-growing part of the homeless population, making up 39% of it. The old idea of a homeless person, that of the single man who gets drunk all the time, is no longer true. A much larger part of the population now finds itself homeless. Even worse, once a person becomes homeless, he often finds it impossible to find a job, since most employers require anyone who wants a job from them to provide a home address on a job application.

1.The word “ address” in the first line probably means “ ________”.

A.talk about

B.write to

C.fight for

D.deal with

2.How many people are homeless in the U.S according to the Coalition studies?

A.About 3 million people

B.200 million people

C.39% of the population

D.About one-fifth of the population

3.Homeless people often have difficulty finding a job because_______.

A.they often don’t have enough work experience

B.they mostly have a drinking problem

C.they aren’t supported by government programs

D.they have no home address

4.What’s the main cause of the rising number of the homeless in the U.S.?

A.The passing of new housing laws.

B.The ever-rising price of housing.

C.The slow construction of houses.

D.The fast growth of family size
