【題目】Laptop computers are popular all over the world. People use them on trains and airplanes, in airports and hotels. These laptops connect people to their workplace. In the United States today, laptops also connect students to their classrooms.

Westlake College in Virginia will start a laptop computer program that allows students to do schoolwork anywhere they want. Within five years, each of the 1500 students at the college will receive a laptop. The laptops are part of a $10 million computer program at Westlake, a 110-year-old college. The students with laptops will also have access to the Internet. In addition, they will be able to use e-mail to “speak” with their teachers, their classmates, and their families. However, the most important part of the laptop program is that students will be able to use computers without going to computer labs. They can work with it at home, in a fast-food restaurant or under the trees，anywhere at all!

Because of the many changes in computer technology, laptop used in higher education, such as colleges and universities, is workable(可行的). As laptops become more powerful, they become more similar to desktop computers. In addition, the portable computers can connect students to not only the Internet, but also libraries and other resources. State higher-education officials are studying how laptops can help students. State officials are also testing laptop programs at other universities, too.

At Westlake College, more than 60 percent of the staff（教職員工）use computers. The laptops will allow all teachers to use computers in their lessons. As one Westlake teacher said, “Here we are in the middle of Virginia and we’re giving students a window on the world. They can see everything and do everything.”

【題目】There is an old saying about volunteer work that goes like this: No one can do everything, but everyone can do something.

Today, many people volunteer their time and energy to help others. There are a lot of ways to meet other people’s needs. For example, some volunteers provide help after a disaster. Others are happy to get dirty while repairing homes or planting trees or flowers in poor neighborhoods（地區(qū)）. Young people see suffering and loneliness around them and find ways to help. And history lovers help archeologists（考古學(xué)家）search for ancient objects to help deepen knowledge of the past.

Volunteers also work in many areas around the world, including Haiti（海地）. More than two years have passed since a 7.0 earthquake shook the nation. The exact number of people who died may never be known. Thousands of survivors of the Haitian earthquake still live in temporary（臨時的）shelters. Last year, former American President Jimmy Carter and his wife Rosalynn joined five hundred Habitat volunteers in the town of Leogane to build houses.

Organizations do not have to be large to get volunteers. An activist group in Dharamsala, India is a good example. Jodie Underhill from England arrived in northern India several years ago. She planned to volunteer for an environmental project. She could almost not believe how much rubbish was ruining some of the area’s most beautiful sights. Ms Underhill learned about how to deal with the rubbish while taking part in other volunteer projects. But soon enough she formed her own group, Mountain Cleaners. Ms Underhill says the work is very hard. But she praises the group’s efforts as a wonderful experience. The young English woman says the Indian media started calling her “Garbage Girl”. And she says she was pleased with the name.

American teenagers also volunteer in many ways.

【1】The author uses an old saying in the first paragraph to .

A. introduce the topic of the passage

B. draw the readers’ attention to care for the poor

C. encourage people to become volunteers

D. explain the meaning of volunteer work

【2】What did former American President Jimmy Carter do as a volunteer?

A. Give some money to the poor in Haiti.

B. Plant trees and flowers in Haiti’s park.

C. Help archeologists search for ancient objects

D. Help to build houses after a disaster.

【3】How did Jodie Underhill feel when she saw beautiful sights ruined by the rubbish?

A. shocked B. pleased C. moved D. interested

【4】What can we learn from the passage?

A. The number of people died in Haiti’s earthquake is unclear.

B. Ms Underhill formed her own group to make money.

C. History lovers mainly learn the history from ancient objects.

D. Ms Underhill was called “Garbage Girl” by American media.

【5】What may the next passage talk about?

A. The reason why people offer their services to others.

B. The way to join in a volunteer group.

C. The volunteer work that American teenagers do.

D. The benefits that volunteers can achieve.
