分析 該篇主要講了國際志愿服務(wù)今年開展了青年志愿交流旅游性服務(wù)項目,通過四、五個人一組,組成志愿小分隊,在不同地區(qū)進行不同的志愿任務(wù)

解答 21.A 該題是細(xì)節(jié)題,當(dāng)在法國旅游時,重點是園藝工作,在Youth Exchange 2下面第三行中提到了園藝,其他都不是,所以該題選A
22.D 該題主要看關(guān)鍵詞environment,在Youth Exchange 4下面第四行句尾看到,要求提高我們的環(huán)保意識,所以該題選D
23.B 該題屬于邏輯題,該國際服務(wù)項目是以旅游的形式做任務(wù),不難看出,與園藝這個項目不謀而和,所以由文章Youth Exchange 2可得,該題選B

8.The iPon Generation
Today it is common to see people who walk about with colored wires hanging from their ears wherever they go.They move about in their personal bubbles,sometimes unaware of what's happening around them.(71)G Outside life is shut out.So are you one of them"?
For me; walking around in my own personal bubble is perfect.(72)D What's even better,wearing earphones seems to give a signal to people which says;"I'm not available for chatting at the moment."
Suppose,you're at work and about to make an incredible breakthrough?but a colleague suddenly turns up.At this precise moment,the slightest disturbance would break your concentration.(73)F Once again,those wires hanging from your ears would be sure to give that"Go away!"signal.
(74)C It's probably part of the growing up stage when they just want to ignore their whole family.While their mothers give them lectures about why they should do their'Yes.Mum.''Problem solved.
Pretty soon,not only will we have pretty colored wires hanging from our ears-but also our brains will be directly plugged into some new high-tech instrument.We'll be in a virtual (虛擬的) world,communicating with everyone else,or choosing not to,as we like.In this world,we will all be permanently plugged in.(75)A And they are changing our social habits along the way.
In the end,there is a thin line between using technology as a tool for making life better and being a slave to it!It's so strange-suddenly,I don't feel like wearing my earphones anymore.

A.Our instruments are changing quickly.
B.I also have wires hanging from my ears.
C.In the home situation,teenagers love these wires.
D.I don't have to deal with the noise from the environment.
E.After all,I am listening to my favourite music and would rather not be disturbed.
F.Listening to music through earphones is the perfect way to ignore such interruptions.
G.They walk around in their own spaces,with their personal"digital noise reduction systems.

9.At age 23,Indian entrepreneur Srikanth Bolla is the CEO of a company valued at INR 50crore (over﹩7.5million).Today,he considers himself the luckiest man in the world,not for his success,but for having supportive parents who always stood by him.
When Srikanth was born blind,several of his parents'friends and relatives advised them to abandon him.That would indeed have been the easier thing to do,given the fact that they were poor and uneducated,earning a mere INR 20,000 (﹩300)a year.But they chose to not only keep the boy,but also raise him in a positive,loving environment."They are the richest people I know,"he often says.
And their excellent parenting has paid off-today,Srikanth is the CEO of Bollant Industries,a Hyderabad-based company that employs   physically challenged staff to manufacture eco-friendly consumer packaging solutions made from leaves and recycled paper.It wasn't an easy ride for Srikanth-he's had to face several challenges all his life,including rejection from his peers at his village school.As he grew older,he started taking on larger challenges.He was rejected despite having scored well in the entrance test,merely because he was blind.But he managed to use his excellent academic records to gain admission into the Massachusetts Institute of Technology,from where he graduated in 2012.He returned to India soon after,and decided to start a company that would employ people who had struggled like himself in life.
Srikanth said,"Compassion(憐憫) is showing somebody the way to live and giving them the opportunity to thrive.Show compassion and make people rich.Include people in your life and remove loneliness,and lastly,do something good; it will come back to you."

A.parents           B.luck

C.got a lot of friendly assistance when facing challenges

8.Through the wonders of modern technology,our world is more connected than ever before.Ideas can cross oceans with the click of a button.Companies can do business and compete with companies across the globe.And we can text,email,Skype with people on every continent.
So studying abroad isn't just a fun way to spend a semester; it is quickly becoming the key to success in our global economy.Because getting ahead in today's work places isn't just about getting good grades or test scores in school,which are important.It's also about having real experience with the world beyond your borders--experience with languages,cultures and societies very different from your own.Or,as the Chinese saying goes:"It is better to travel ten thousand miles than to read ten thousand books."
But let's be clear,studying abroad is about so much more than improving your own future.It's also about shaping the future of your countries and of the world we all share.Because when it comes to the defining challenges of our time--whether it's climate change or economic opportunity or the spread of nuclear weapons--these are shared challenges.And no one country can confront them alone.The only way forward is together.

9.Some people bring out the best in you in a way that you might never have fully realized on your own.My mom was one of those people.
My father died when I was nine months old,making my mom a single mother at the age of eighteen.While I was growing up,we lived a very hard life.We had little money,but my mom gave me a lot of love.Each night,she sat me on her lap and spoke the words that would change my life,"Kemmons,you are certain to be a great man and you can do anything in life if you work hard enough to get it."
At fourteen,I was hit by a car and the doctors said I would never walk again.Every day,my mother spoke to me in her gentle,loving voice,telling me that no matter what those doctors said,I could walk again if I wanted to badly enough.She drove that message so deep into my heart that I finally believed her.A year later,I returned to school-walking on my own!
When the Great Depression (大蕭條) hit,my mom lost her job.Then I left school to support the both of us.At that moment,I was determined never to be poor again.
Over the years,I experienced various levels of business success.But the real turning point occurred on a vacation I took with my wife and five kids in 1951.I was dissatisfied with the second-class hotels available for families and was angry that they charged an extra﹩2 for each child.That was too expensive for the average American family.I told my wife that I was going to open a motel (汽車旅館) for families that would never charge extra for children.There were plenty of doubters at that time.
Not surprisingly,mom was one of my strongest supporters.She worked behind the desk and even designed the room style.As in any business,we experienced a lot of challenges.But with my mother's words deeply rooted in my soul,I never doubted we would succeed.Fifteen years later,we had the largest hotel system in the world-Holiday Inn.In 1979 my company had 1,759 inns in more than fifty countries with an income of﹩1 billion a year.
You may not have started out life in the best situation.But if you can find a task in life worth working for and believe in yourself,nothing can stop you.

41.What Kemmons'mom often told him during his childhood wasC.
A.caring             B.moving          
C.encouraging        D.interesting
42.According to the author,who played the most important role in making him walk back to school again?D
A.Doctors.      B.Nurses.
C.Friends.      D.Mom.
43.What caused Kemmons to start a motel by himself?A
A.His terrible experience in the hotel.
B.His previous business success of various levels.
C.His mom's support.
D.His wife's suggestion.
44.Which of the following best describes Kemmons'mother?B
A.Modest,helpful,and hard-working.
B.Loving,supportive and strong-willed.
C.Careful,helpful and beautiful.
D.Strict,sensitive and supportive.
45.Which of the following led to Kemmons'success according to the passage?B

B.Mom's encouragement,clear goals,self-confidence and hard work.
