I love charity(慈善) shops and so do lots of other people in Britain because you find quite a few of them on every high street. The charity shop is a British institution, selling everything from clothes to electric goods, all at very good prices. You can get things you won’t find in the shops anymore. The thing I like best about them is that your money is going to a good cause and not into the pockets of profit-driven companies, and you are not damaging the planet, but finding a new home for unwanted goods.

The first charity shop was opened in 1947 by Oxfam. The famous charity’s appeal to aid postwar Greece had been so successful it had been flooded with donations(捐贈物). They decided to set up a shop to sell some of these donations to raise money for that appeal. Now there are over 7,000 charity shops in the UK. My favourite charity shop in my hometown is the Red Cross shop, where I always find children’s books, all 10 or 20 pence each.

Most of the people working in the charity shops are volunteers, although there is often a manager who gets paid. Over 90% of the goods in the charity shops are donated by the public. Every morning you see bags of unwanted items outside the front of shops, although they don’t encourage this, rather ask people to bring things in when the shop is open.

The shops have very low running costs: all profits go to charity work. Charity shops raise more than £110 million a year, funding(資助)medical research, overseas aid, supporting sick and poor children, homeless and disabled people, and much more. What better place to spend your money? You get something special for a very good price and a good moral sense. You provide funds to a good cause and tread lightly on the environment.

The author loves the charity shop mainly because of _______.

   A. its convenient location              B. its great variety of goods

   C. its spirit of goodwill               D. its nice shopping environment

The first charity shop in the UK was set up to ____.

   A. sell cheap products                  B. deal with unwanted things

   C. raise money for patients               D. help a foreign country

Which of the following is TRUE about charity shops?

   A. The operating costs are very low.      B. The staff are usually well paid.

   C. 90% of the donations are second-hand.   D. They are open twenty-four hours a day.

Which of the following may be the best title for the passage?

   A. What to Buy a Charity Shops.        B. Charity Shop: Its Origin & Development.

   C. Charity Shop: Where You Buy to Donate.  D. The Public’s Concern about Charity Shops.

From my first day, I was attending press conferences and other media events all over town. I got to attend events at places I had never thought I’d get to: the White House, the Senate and House of Representative buildings at the Capitol (國會大廈), the Department of Health and Human Services, just to name a few. And I was sent to cover these events as if I were a reporter, not just an intern (實習生) .

 In fact, I never really felt like an intern. I was given the opportunity to do the work that everyone else at the paper was doing. I covered stories on my own and wrote the articles myself. I was included in discussions for story ideas. I helped to edit the articles that went into the paper. I was able to take part in every aspect of the newspaper that I wanted to experience.

 The best part of working at the Nation’s Health was the staff. They were supportive in letting me go out and do things on my own, while I always knew that they would be more than happy to answer any questions or help me with any problems I might have. Best of all, they treated me as their equal, not just an intern whom they could get to do all the work they didn’t want to do.

After interning at the Nation’s Health for nearly seven months and having more than 30 articles published, I had to move on. My experience there gave me insight into how the media work, which helps me when I’m trying to choose stories. In addition, it showed me that work really can be fun.

1.What is the passage mainly about?

A. How good reporting begins with journalism interns.

B. The author’s opportunity to work at the Nation’s Health.

C. The author’s experience working as an intern

D. The author’s first day as a professional reporter.

2.What impressed the author most when working at the Nation’s Health?

A. The employees treated her as one of them equally.

B. The opportunity to work alone.

C. Covering stories and writing articles

D. Coming up with story ideas for the newspaper.

3.We can infer that the author had thought an intern would be made to ____.

A. go to as many places as possible

B. do the boring things that others didn’t want to do

C. treat people equally, no matter who they were.

D. get help from a professional reporter

4.What did the author think of her experience of working at the Notion’s Health?

A. Meaningful    B. Disappointing     C. Tiring    D.  Surprising

科目:高中英語 來源:2011-2012學年廣東省六校高三第一次聯(lián)考英語試題 題型:閱讀理解

The government-run command post in Tunis is staffed around the clock by military personnel, meteorologists and civilians. On the wall are maps, crisscrossed with brightly colors arrows that painstakingly track the fearsome path of the enemy.

  What kind of invader gives rise to such high-level monitoring? Not man, not beast, but the lowly desert locust(蝗蟲). In recent months, billions of the 3-inch-long winged warriors have descended on Algeria, Libya, Morocco and Tunisia, blackening the sky and eating up crops and vegetation. The insect invasion, the worst in 30 years, is already creating great destruction in the Middle East and is now treating southern Europe. The current crisis began in late 1985 near the Red Sea. Unusually rainy weather moistened the sands of the Sudan, making them ideal seedbed for the locust, which lays its eggs in the earth. The insect onslaught threatens to create yet another African famine. Each locust can eat its weight (not quite a tenth of an ounce) in vegetation every 24 hours. A good-size swarm of 50 billion insects eats up 100,000 tons of grass, trees and crops in a single night.

  All ﹩150 million may be needed this year. The U.S. has provided two spraying planes and about 50,000 gal. of pesticide. The European Community has donated ﹩3.8 million in aid and the Soviet Union, Canada, Japan and China have provided chemical-spraying aircraft to help wipe out the pests. But relief efforts are hampered by the relative mildness of approved pesticides, which quickly lose their deadly punch and require frequent replications. The most effective locust killer dieldrin has been linked to cancer and is banned by many Western countries and some of the affected African nations. More than 5 million acres have been dusted with locust-killing chemicals; another 5 million will be treated by the end of June.

  On May 30, representatives of Tunisia, Algeria, Libya, Morocco and Mauritania will meet in Algiers to discuss tactics to wipe out the ravenous swarms. The move is an important step, but whatever plan is devised, the locust plague promised to get worse before the insects can be brought under control.[來源:Zxxk.Com]

  A. the command post is stationed with people all the time.

  B. the command post is crowded with people all the time.

  C. there are clocks around the command post.

2. The favorable breeding ground for the locust is ______.

  C. paces covered crops and vegetation        D. the Red Sea

3. People are alert at the threat of the locust because ______.

  A. the insects are likely to create another African famine.

  B. the insects may blacken the sky.

  C. the number of the insects increases drastically.

  D. the insects are gathering and moving in great speed.

4.Which of the following is true?

  A. Once the pesticides are used, locust will die immediately.

  B. Relief efforts are proved most fruitful due to the effectiveness of certain pesticides.

  C. Dieldrin, the most effective locust killer, has been widely accepted in many countries.

  D. Over 10 million acres of affected area will have been treated with locust-killing chemicals by the end of June.

5. The purpose for affected nations to meet in Algiers on May 30 is ______.

  A. to devise anti-locust plans.

  B. to wipe out the swarms in two years.

  C. to call out for additional financial aid from other nations.
