Born in a fishing village in Japan, Fujiyama, 25, recalls a childhood dominated by health concerns. Doctors told his parents that he had a hole in his heart and “they didn’t think I had a lot longer to live”. But during a later visit to the doctor, his family learned the hole had closed. “Somehow I was cured and I became a normal kid,” Fujiyama says. “And I had a second chance.”
During his second year at the University of Mary Washington, he volunteered in Honduras with a campus group and was struck by the extreme poverty he saw—barefoot children collecting cans and sleeping in the streets. Fujiyama realized he could help give other children their own second chance.
Today, his organization, Students Helping Honduras, brings education and community projects to children and families in need.
He started by telling his friends about his experience and collecting spare change at his two campus jobs. “When I had my very first meeting, only two people showed up,” he says. “I knew I had to keep fighting.” He persuaded his younger sister, Cosmo, to join the cause. “She’s dynamite,.” He says. “When she talks in front of a crowd, she can move mountains. Knowing that she was behind it, I knew I could do anything.” Since 2006, the siblings’ organization has grown to 25 campuses and raised more than $750,000 to fund projects, including the construction of two schools and the establishment of scholarships to help young women attend college.
Fujiyama says students are deeply committed to the organization. They raise money and then travel to Honduras to help building houses. While Fujiyama spends his summers in Honduras working alongside volunteers, he spends a large portion of the year on the road visiting colleges to raise funds. Cosmo Fujiyama, 23, lives in Honduras full time to coordinate（協(xié)調）the group’s building efforts on the ground.
Students Helping Honduras is working with community members of Siete de Abril to build a new village. Many of the families lost their belongings in Hurricane Mitch in 1998. A lot of them didn’t have access to clean water or health care, and they didn’t have a school. Fujiyama’s group helped build 44 homes in the village named “Sunshine Village”. The organization is also raising funds to build a water tower, an eco-friendly sanitation system and a library.
小題1: At the beginning of his organization, ________.
A．Fujiyama was supported by many friendsB．things didn’t go on smoothly
C．Fujiyama had little idea of HondurasD．many famous people joined in
小題2: We can infer that Fujiyama is a _______ man.
A．diligentB．meanC．sympatheticD．cheerful
小題3: The underlined word “siblings’ ” can be replaced by __________.
A．brothers’B．brother and sister’sC．friends’D．couple’s
小題4:Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A．Help the people in need
B．Students lend a hand in America
C．Fujiyama helps build “Sunshine Village”
D．Fujiyama gives poor people in Honduras a second chance

  For about three years now, I have been writing poetry. It was not until my junior year in high school that I developed an interest, love and skill for writing poetry.
Back in elementary school, I loved to write stories. I would write stories on post-it notes and anywhere I could. Yet when I had to write a limerick(五行打油詩) for an assignment, I could not wrap my head around poetry. I had a very hard time figuring out how to rhyme words and have the words make sense. I eventually tossed the paper with the attempted limerick in the trash. I did not try my hand at poetry again until several years later.
Many years later in my freshman year of high school, my English teacher gave my class a poetry project as an assignment. I still remember my limerick assignment and was afraid of doing the poetry project. For the project, we had to analyze a poem and write a response to it. I chose to respond to Robert Frost’s poem Fire and Ice. I also wrote my own poem first. I became really excited when writing the poem.
Two years later, I started writing poetry as a hobby and for fun. To learn how good or bad my poems were, I handed them in to some magazines and contests. I won second place in the North Carolina Poetry Society’s Sherry Pruitt Award Contest with a poem called The Ocean, and had my two poems published as high merit(優(yōu)等) poems. I have continued to write poetry, and have even self-published three collections of poetry in both print and e-book formats, which can be found at my store on Lulu.
Now, I love writing poetry, but I don’t hate writing short stories. I just find it more difficult and not my style of writing, even though I still write short stories occasionally.
小題1:When the author was a pupil, he ___________.
A．liked writing stories
B．was good at writing poetry
C．could understand poetry well
D．was often praised by his teacher
小題2:When given the poetry project in high school, the author was___________.
A．excitedB．annoyedC．confidentD．worried
小題3:The author took up writing poetry as a hobby when he____________.
A．was in Grade Three in high school
B．worked as a storekeeper
C．was in Grade One in high school
D．was at college
小題4:How did the author increase his confidence in writing poetry?
A．He wrote a lot of poems and asked advice from his teacher.
B．He published three collections of poetry by himself.
C．He submitted his poems to magazines and contests.
D．He gave up writing stories and only wrote poetry.

I had been rather proud of myself when my friends and family got the ticket, whether it was for speeding, parking or stop sign violations(違反). It was something that happened to others. But last Friday I joined the club.
I was asked to do a new project last week. On Friday morning on my way to work, I suddenly remembered that I had spent the past six weeks without considering that I had a week’s vacation planned during that time. I was very disappointed with myself for not remembering it.
The truth is that I was not paying enough attention to my driving and I did not come to a complete stop at the stop sign in front of a school. I was so distracted(思想不集中的) that I didn’t even notice I had a policeman on my tail with his lights flashing. Finally I looked in my mirror and caught on.
The policeman was rude and took my papers. Luckily, I had everything up to date and since I had never had a ticket before, there was nothing for him to do but write me a ticket. While I was sitting there in the seat of “shame”, I felt bad. If I had been that distracted and a child had run onto the road, perhaps I would have not reacted as well as I could have. It was a wake-up call.
People at work asked me if I tried to talk my way out of it. Frankly, it never occurred to me. I felt guilty（有罪的）. Now I no longer have a clean driving record. Please be careful out there, as a moment’s distraction can lead to tragedy（悲劇）.
小題1:What is this passage mainly about?
A．The writer’s most unforgettable experience.
B．How the writer got her first ticket.
C．An accident caused by the writer.
D．Why the writer is always so careful.
小題2:We can infer that the underlined part “the club” in Paragraph 1 here refers to         .
A．people who are crazy about driving cars
B．a club for drivers without much experience
C．people who get tickets for breaking traffic rules
D．a club for people to talk about their driving stories
小題3:What made the writer unable to focus on(集中思想) her driving?
A．Planning how to spend the vacation.
B．Thinking of the forgotten vacation.
C．Thinking about her work.
D．Missing her children.
小題4:When the writer received the ticket, she         .
A．felt lucky that she was an experienced driver
B．was so nervous that she shook all over
C．was ashamed of herself for being distracted
D．was worried about being laughed at

A few months ago I was at a bus stop in town in the evening. The bus came on time and I took the window seat. The bus was travelling by the seashore and I was enjoying the soft wind while watching the sea waves (海浪). After a few minutes the bus made its next stop. A young boy and a girl got on. They were standing on my left when the bus pulled off. I looked at them in surprise and realized that all the window seats were taken up. They could sit but not together. Suddenly a different wave passed through my body and my inner mind gave me the advice to get up. I got up and offered them my seat. The young lady smiled kindly and said thanks. I took another seat and we parted our ways. I don’t remember whether I got off the bus before them or not.
Months passed by. Suddenly one day while I was standing at the same bus stop waiting some time for the bus to arrive I heard a voice.
“Excuse me, Uncle.” I looked in the direction of the voice. It was a beautiful young lady.
Puzzled, I said, “I do not recognize you.”
She said, “Do you remember you gave us your window seat?”
Puzzled, I said, “Maybe, but what is so great in that?”
She said, “If you had not given your seat that day, perhaps I would have not sat with my
friend. By sitting together it helped us bridge a misunderstanding that had been between us forever. Do you know we are getting married next month?”
“Good! God bless both of you,” I replied.
The young lady again said thank you and went on her journey. I realized the importance of giving that day.
小題1:Why were the young boy and the girl standing on the bus?
A．Because they couldn’t sit together.
B．Because they wanted to enjoy the sea weaves.
C．Because there were no empty seats.

A．the sea wave made him upset
