Last Sept.11 was an important day too. After unknown gunmen attacked aid workers from the Nobel Prize-winning Medicines sans Frontiers at a roadblock on that day, most of the international aid groups helping Darfur’s 6 million people stopped using the roads. On Dec.18, unknown gunmen attacked the southern town of GereidA．More than 70 aid workers then pulled out of the refugee (難民) camp there—Darfur’s largest, with 130,000 people—leaving only 10 Red Cross employees behind． Yet at the time no one said what had really caused the sudden pullbacks.

Damaging has become surprisingly common in Darfur, where 200,000 Africans have been killed and a third of the population have been sent fleeing into camps in three years of war. But the attacks on international aid workers suggested a dramatic and dangerous start—to attack on purpose those helping to keep Darfur’s millions of refugee alive. A dozen people from foreign NGOs (non-governmental organizations) have been killed in just the past six months, more than previous years. There are about 14,000 aid workers in Darfur now, the majority of them Sudanese, working for foreign NGOs and U.N. agencies and delivering $1 billion a year in aid. Just a few more terrible attacks could throw that into jeopardy. Last week 14 U.N. offices working in Darfur made a clear warning that “the humanitarian (人道主義) organization cannot possibly make certain the survival of the population in Darfur if aid workers don’t feel safe.”

1．What made Sept. 11 an important day according to the passage?

科目：高中英語 來源：2012-2013學年河南省鄭州市高三第十三次調考英語試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

In a generous display of maturity and sympathy, one Jewish boy made his first deed as a man in his faith a great act of charity.

Joshua Neidorf, a 13-year-old boy from Los Angeles, donated most of his birthday money to Operation Mend, a program that reconstructs the faces of severely burned U. S. veterans（退伍老兵）.

The young man decided to donate his money after getting to know Army Sgt. Louis Dahlman, who was undergoing a series of reconstruction surgeries（手術）at UCLA （University of California at Los Angeles） thanks to Operation Mend. The Neidorfs had signed up to be Dahlman’s “buddy family”, spending time with him whenever he visited Los Angeles for a surgery.

“I just love knowing that it’s going somewhere...to help the people who save our lives and keep us safe every day,” said Neidorf. His mother added, “It makes me feel like our world is going in a good direction with this next generation.”

In all, Neidorf gave $13,000 to Operation Mend. He also encouraged his friends to donate to the cause. He is the organization’s youngest donor so far.

Operation Mend is a privately funded program that works in partnership with the UCLA Medical Center. Ron Katz, a board member at the hospital, started the program in 2006 after seeing a TV programme about Aaron Mankin, a veteran who had gone through dozens of surgeries after a fight in Iraq which completely burned off his face.

Mankin ended up being Operation Mend’s first patient, starting the first of 20 reconstructive facial surgeries at UCLA in Sept. 2007. In a 2011 interview, Katz shared how his experience of helping Mankin made him realize the need to establish a more permanent program.

“My wife and I soon realized that there were dozens of Aarons out there,” Katz said. “They deserve the best that we offer them.”

1.Neidorf decided to help veterans because ________.

A．he benefited from Operation Mend         B．he was afraid of burned faces

C．he thought they deserved help             D．he didn’t know how to spend money

2.Operation Mend was founded after ________.

A．Neidorf donated part of his birthday money

B．the Neidorfs signed up to be Dahlman’s “buddy family”

C．Ron Katz saw a TV programme about a veteran

D．Mankin was successfully operated on at UCLA

3.What can we learn from the passage?

A. Neidorf’s mother was opposed to his decision to donate money.

B. Mankin’s face was burned in a fire in America.

C. Mankin went through more than 30 facial surgeries at UCLA.

D. Many facial surgeries are needed to reconstruct a seriously burned face.

4.The last two paragraphs mainly tell us ________.

A．the process of Mankin’s surgery           B．how Operation Mend was set up

C．how Katz became famous                 D．veterans are respected by people
