How about teaching a deaf person to deejay?" He wrote back the next day: "Challenge 13 ." He tutored me twice a week for two years, helping me develop proper skills. I practised four hours a day. Now when I'm 14 , muscle memory takes over.

Now, I play all sorts of get-togethers on various occasions. I also go to schools for the deaf and talk to the students about 27 and believing in themselves. I tell their parents, "My 28 to you is to let your kids chase their dreams. I'm a deaf DJ,so why not?"

B [2015.山東濰坊高三一模]
For decades, the San Francisco Bay Area has been the heart of the computer technology industry. Many of the big?gest technology companies have their headquarters in the area called Silicon Valley. But the area has not always been associ?ated with charity(慈善).
Now, a new generation of entrepreneurs (企業(yè)家)ap?pears To be changing Silicon Valley. One example is Marc Be-nioff, a donor(捐贈者),who has called on wealthy donors to give more to their communities. He is also the founder of Salesforce. com, a computer services company in San Francis?co who has helped build a children's hospital and given mil?lions of dollars to non-profit organizations in the city.
Money from the technology industry has also started to change the face of charity. Benjamin Soskis writes about the history and ideas behind charity in America. His articles have appeared in The Atlantic magazine and a number of major publications. He says, traditionally, donors have given after they spent much of their lives building up wealth. Usually donors are in their 70s. But an increasing number of people appearing on the list of top donors are younger than 40 years of age. Benjamin Soskis says that is something new. "There's a whole new model that's appearing in which people give and accumulate at the same time.,,
Some of the young donors on this year's top 50 list have started to change the way people see charity. That is especial?ly the case in the San Francisco area, where giving money and making money appear to be coming together. "I think it's fair to say that charity is now a part of the Silicon Valley identi?ty. "
5. What is TRUE of Marc Benioff?
A. He joined a non-profit organization.
B. He advised donors to build hospitals.
C. He made San Francisco a city of charity.
D. He set up the company of Salesforce. com.
6. What is special about the donors of Silicon Valley?
A. They prefer to give rather than make money.
B. They give after accumulating a lot of wealth.
C. They are much younger than the usual donors.
D. They donate more money to their communities.
7. Which of the following can be the best title for the pas?sage?
A. The age of charity
B. The changing faces of charity
C. In search of new faces
D. From computer base to charity centre

I.閱讀理解[2015 •湖北八市高三聯(lián)考]
If you need glasses to read this, you are among the ma?jority of Chinese students. That's because most students in China are short-sighted which means they can only see things close up and distant things will be blurry. Four fifths of high school students wear glasses and now more and more children in primary school need glasses, too.
This epidemic of poor eyesight has two very simple cau?ses: too much time spent indoors studying and too little time spent outdoors playing. Reading and writing for hours and hours, sometimes in poorly lighted rooms, causes eyesight to weaken. But students have to do this because there is so much pressure on them to succeed in school. And because they spend so much time indoors at school and at home, they have less time to spend outdoors enjoying the sun.
The sun, as a consequence, is important in developing good eyesight. Exposure to daylight releases a chemical in the eyes that prevents, or at least delays, short-sightedness. Ac?cording to a study by Ian Morgan of Australian National Uni?versity, Australian children and Chinese children have the same level of eyesight before they start school, but once they enter primary school, Chinese children only spend about an hour a day outside, while Australian children spend three to four hours each day in the sunshine. The result is that while about 40 per cent of Chinese primary school students need glasses, only 3 per cent of Australian children do.
Wearing glasses may not seem like a big deal. For some, wearing glasses can even be an opportunity to make a fashion statement. But poor eyesight at a young age can have serious long-term consequences. As you get older, your eyesight can worsen and lead to things like macular degeneration(黃斑變性),a condition of the eyes for which there is no cure and which can eventually lead to blindness.
With all that in mind, don't you think it's time to give your eyes a break? Try spending a little less time inside and go for a walk in the park, instead. It's the healthy thing to do and your eyes will thank you for it.
1. What does the underlined word "blurry" in Paragraph 1 mean?
A. Unpopular. B. Unpleasant.
C. Unclear. D. Unconscious.
2.How should the students protect their eyesight according to the passage?
A. They should study less and less.
B. They should stay longer outdoors.
C.They should wear sunglasses.
D. They should have a longer rest in bed.
3.It can be inferred from the passage that is to blame for the poor eyesight of Chinese children.
A. the ever-worsening bad weather
B. the ever-increasing burden of study
C. the ever-decreasing sunny days
D. the ever-decreasing period of study time
4. What is the purpose of this article?
A. To explain why Chinese students are short-sighted.
B. To admire Australian children's good eyesight.
C. To criticize the present education system.
D. To call on people to protect Chinese children's eye?sight.
