I don’t usually like to do what everyone else is doing. I want to be a(n) , not just part of the crowd. But when I first wore it, I was also afraid of the that I’d get at school.

I on my own that sixth grade was the I should start wearing the hijab. I was about what the kids would say or even do to me. I thought they might make fun of me, or be scared of me and my head-scarf. Kids at that age usually like to be all the same, and there’s little or no of differences.

On the first day of school, I put all those thoughts behind my back and walked in with my head held high. I was holding my breath a little, but I was also proud to be a Muslim, proud to be wearing the hijab, proud to be different.

I was about everything I thought the kids would say or even do to me. I actually met a lot of people because of wearing my head covering. Most of the kids would come and ask me questions — — about the hijab and why I wore it.

I did hear some kids were making fun of me, there was one girl — she wasn’t even in my class, we never really talked much — and she spoke me, and I wasn’t even there! I made a lot of new friends that year, friends that I still have until this very day, five years later.

No doubt that you know about Charities. Here it is another chance for you to know more. Difficult times often bring out the best in people. And this was the case for basketball star Yao Ming, who hosted a television show in Shanghai that raised US$300,000 to help researchers find a cure for SARS. Fundraising, or charity, is an act of goodwill towards others. Charities in the West have more flexible ways. Look at a typical day for Ruth, a wealthy woman in the UK, for example. Ruth wakes up in the morning and collects her post. There’s a letter addressed to her with a picture of a half-dead, beaten horse. It’s from a charity asking Ruth to donate money to save the animals. The door bell rings and there, on Ruth’s doorstep, is an old woman asking for money to help the aged. She turns on the television, hears sad music and sees a picture of a wide-eyed child dying of hunger in Africa with an appeal for money to help the child. Ruth then goes shopping for a dress to wear to that evening’s large party for the rich and famous. The ticket cost her a small fortune, but she doesn’t mind because most of the money is going to a charity that fights AIDS. She feels good about going because she’s helping the sick. Within five minutes of walking down the street, Ruth has passed a charity shop. She doesn’t stop because she doesn’t think she’d find a suitable dress there—it’s full of old, secondhand clothes. But, many other people enter and but all sorts of bargains. Edna, a little old lady, looks after the shop. Any profit it has made goes to a cancer charity. Now that she has retired, she has plenty of spare time to offer her services for free.

For people like Yao Ming, Ruth and Edna, charity is a virtue that holds the same importance in life as faith and hope. “As you look back on your life, the moments that stand out are the moments when you have done things for others,” said Scottish author Henry Drummond.

1.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the story as a way of fundraising ?

A. Charity party B. Charity post

C. Charity TV programD. Charity for beggars.

2.What does the word “raise” in the first paragraph mean ?

A. Collect togetherB. Donate

C. IncreaseD. Bring to someone’s attention.

3.We can infer from the passage that .

A. Yao Ming donated US$300,000 to help researchers find a cure for SARS

B. Edna may not be a rich lady but she is willing to do something for others

C. Ruth leads a busy life and she feels very tired

D. Ruth is angry because so many people ask her for money every day

4.What’s the writer’s attitude towards charity ?

A. The writer thinks it’s something only people like Ruth can afford to do

B. The writer just wants to inform us of the different ways to practice charity

C. The writer thinks it’s a virtue and admires the people who practice it

D. The writer doesn’t make it clear in the story

5.The underlined part in the last paragraph probably means that .

A. when you look back sometimes, you need stand out

B. when you want to do something for others, you need stand out

C. the moment you stand out, you can do something for others

D. what impresses people deeply is what they have done for others

[1] Boys whose fathers work very long hours are more likely to be aggressive, according to a new research. A study of more than 1,400 children found those boys, whose fathers worked more than 55 hours a week, were more aggressive than their peers, yet the same thing didn’t happen to daughters. What’s more, mothers’ working hours did not seem to affect it.

[2] Now, further research needs to be carried out to find out why this happens in males, and to look for ways to tackle it. In Germany, 15 percent of fathers of children, aged three and four, worked 55 or more hours a week. Dr. Jianghong Li said, “It is possible when fathers work very long hours, children are less well monitored after school, especially if mothers also work full time hours. There is some evidence young boys are less well monitored than girls, when fathers have high work related demands. As a result, it will cause more problems.

[3] The average amount of time parents spend with their children has increased in recent years, but the quantity and quality of parent-child time is still raised as a concern. Studies in the US and Australia point to a desire among parents to work fewer hours and spend more time with their children. A wish among children is that parents would come home from work less tired and stressed.

[4] The finding provides evidence to support equal opportunities for mothers and fathers to share parenting and work responsibilities. Instead of focusing on negative effects of mothers’ working hours, policy makers should pay attention to negative results of fathers’ long working hours for children’s emotional well being. Fathers should be urged not to work long hours, but to have a greater share of parenting responsibilities.

1.What’s the main idea of the passage? (no more than 11 words)

 

2.How much time should fathers work a week at most according to the passage? (no more than 5 words)

 

3.What would happen if fathers work too long hours? (no more than 10 words)

 

4.What’s the desire among children according to the passage? (no more than 10 words)

 

5.What does the text suggest to us? (no more than 10 words)
