Recently I read the Human Development Report.I couldn't help thinking about another problem why the world is facing hunger.According to the report,2400 people are dying from hunger every day;nearly 13 million in southern Africa will be worried about their food supply because of earthquakes,floods or wars.

In a word,hunger remains the biggest problem of the world today.It's strange to see that man can travel to the moon,but still doesn't know how to feed himself.You may ask,“Who steals our bread?”The first thieves should be population growth,poverty and loss of rich farmland.

In less developed areas like South Africa,the population grows faster than the crops.It is almost impossible for its government to feed so many people and provide education for them.So it is very important to control the population growth and protect their farmland in countries whose people are suffering from hunger.

According to the report,the world's food production is enough to feed everyone if it is given away well.But the problem is that the developed countries are eating food that should be given to the poor.Although they are just using their own earning,the fact is that they are coldly watching others starving away.

Luckily,some developed countries such as Netherlands,Norway and Sweden have done a lot to help those hungry people in African countries.We hope other developed countries will follow them.

1.According to the passage,which of the following cannot help make fewer people hungry?

A. Poor countries control their population growth.

B. Poor countries protect their rich farmland.

C. Rich countries produce more food to feed themselves.

D. Rich countries give some food to the poor ones.

2.The fourth paragraph mainly tells us________.

A. poor countries are cold and going to die out

B. rich countries notice the problems of the poor countries

C. rich countries are trying their best to help poor countries

D. rich countries aren't willing to help poor countries

3.According to the last sentence,the writer hopes________.

A. poor countries should learn from rich ones

B. more rich countries will help the hungry people

C. more countries will give help to Norway

D. more countries will be as rich as Sweden

When we were kids, my little sister Madison and I were the M&Ms—my parents' two daughters. 1. So it was quite a surprise when my mom and dad sat us down to let us know that baby number three was on the way when I was 10 years old. However, as soon as my brother Mac was born, he completely stole my heart and I have learned many things from having a young brother.

2.

Having a baby in your life means watching your parents endlessly change diapers (尿布), make bottles, and wipe spit-ups every once in a while. I was allowed to do those things and I learned just how important it was to take care of this little life before I even hit middle school.

● You watch a child grow up.

3.I remember how excited my family was when we discovered how fast of a reader he was in kindergarten. I'll never forget telling him bedtime stories before he went to sleep at night. It's cool to think about the entirety of his life and how far he has come.

● You teach your brother life lessons.

From a young age, my brother watched my sister and me overcome personal challenges, go to high school, and, worst of all, get our hearts broken. 4. Watching his sisters go through life's difficulties has taught him how he should act when he gets older.

Now Mac is 11 years old. I have no shame in telling people that one of my best friends is an 11-year-old boy. In fact, our family without him is unimaginable. 5.

A.You stay in the know.

B.You learn about responsibility early on.

C.We received a lot of attention, and we liked it that way.

D.All I can say is that my family wouldn't be happy without Mac.

E.Nothing makes Mac more upset than a mean guy who hurts a girl's feelings.

F.I remember the first time Mac crawled, walked, and said my name.

G.Thanks , Mom and Dad, for turning the M&Ms into the Three Musketeers.

You are enrolled in a full – time school called “life”. Each day in this school you will have the opportunity to learn lessons. You may like the lessons or hate them, but you have designed them as part of your curriculum.

Why are you here? What is your purpose? Humans have sought to discover the meaning of life for a very long time. What we and our ancestors have overlooked, however, is that there is no one answer. The meaning of life is different for every individual.

Each person has his or her own purpose and distinct path, unique and separate from anyone else’s. As you travel your life path, you will be presented with numerous lessons that you will need to learn in order to fulfill that purpose. The lessons you are presented with are specific to you; learning these lessons is the key to discovering and fulfilling the meaning and connection of your own life.

As you travel through your lifetime, you may encounter challenging lessons that others don’t have to face, while other spends years struggling with challenges that you don’t need to deal with. You may never know why you are blessed with a wonderful marriage, while your friends suffer through bitter arguments and painful divorces, just as you cannot be sure why you struggle financially while your peers enjoy abundance. The only thing you can count on for certain is that you will be presented with all the lessons that you specifically need to learn; whether you choose to learn them or not is entirely up to you.

The challenge here, therefore, is to align (与……保持一致) yourself with your own unique path by learning individual lessons. This is one of the most difficult challenges you will be faced with in your lifetime, as sometimes your path will be completely different from others’. But, remember, don’t compare your path to the people around you and focus on the difference between their lessons and yours. You need to remember that you will only be faced with lessons that you are capable of learning and are specific to your own growth.

Our sense of fairness is the expectation of equality – the assumption that all things are equal and justice will always prevail. Life is not, in fact, fair, and you may indeed have a more difficult life path than others around you, deserved or not. Everyone’s circumstances are unique, and everyone needs to handle his or her own circumstances differently. If you want to move toward calm, you will be required to move out of the complaining phase of “it’s not fair”. Focusing on the unfairness of circumstances keeps you comparing yourself with others rather than appreciating your own special uniqueness. You miss out on learning your individual lessons by distracting yourself with feelings of bitterness and anger.

1.According to the passage, how can the meaning of your life be realized?

A. Having the same opinions as others.

B. Taking the distinct path from others.

C. Learning the lessons presented to you.

D. Doing the different things from others.

2.What can we conclude from the passage ?

A. everyone has his own track to follow

B. the same things usually happen to the peers

C. a painful divorce must lie in financial problems

D. a wealthy man must have a wonderful marriage

3.In your lifetime, the lessons you are faced with_________.

A. are beyond your power B. keep you from growth

C. limit your development D. help you with your success

4.Which of the following is TRUE?

A. All things are equal and justice will always prevail.(流行)

B. You should learn to appreciate your specific uniqueness.

C. One has to fix his mind on unfairness of circumstances.

D. You have to complain “it’s not fair” whenever possible.
