Megan’s Library of Love Book Drive began in 2006, in memory of a student who passed away. The idea to send books to a school in was created by Megan’s classmates at Cedar Groove-Belgium Middle School as a tribute to her.

The project formed out of the desire to honour memories of Megan, to help our community heal, and to make a in the life of others. Students have many of Megan, but the most vivid was her love for her family and the diligent help she gave to her classmates. They combined this with her for learning and reading to create the Library of Love.

This project honours Megan’s special qualities. In the of one of her classmates, “Megan was a good daughter, a good student and a good friend. We are all blessed to have been a of Megan’s life.

Every February, on Megan’s birthday, fifth grades at Cedar Groove-Belgium Middle School donations of newly-purchased books and send them to a school in need. The “l(fā)ove books” are truly a of love meant to reading and learning. Students earn the money for postage by writing letters to local . The fifth grades also have the of labeling every book with a Library of Love sticker, sorting books in categories, and all the books for shipping.

In the two years since the Library of Love began, students have collected over 5,000 newly-purchased books to send to schools in need. In 2006, 3,149 books were sent to St. Bernard’s Parish to help to their school library after Hurricane Katrina devastated the community. In 2007, 1,613 books were sent to Whited Mountain School in Alaska, which was by a fire. Students look forward to sending the gift of reading to other schools in the future.

Teenagers are often a difficult group. With all those hormones(荷爾蒙) flooding their bodies, they can be moody, unpredictable, and tend to make uncertain choices. But however confusing their teenage years are, kids can still be generally happy, depending on their lifestyle choices. According to a new research by British scientists, teens who don’t smoke, drink only moderately or not at all, and who don’t eat much junk food are likely to be happier than other teens.

The study looked at 40,000 British families and came up with some interesting findings. For example, kids who never drank alcohol were up to six times more likely to report higher levels of happiness than kids who drank. And teens who smoked were five times less likely to rate high on happiness charts compared to kids who don’t smoke. Same goes for diet and physical activity. The more fruits and vegetables kids eat, and the more hours they spend playing sports, the happier they are.

Now, of course this doesn’t mean that not smoking or drinking, and playing sports guarantees happiness. It could be that kids who have happy character tend to be more active and less addicted to drinking or smoking. And it could equally be the case that kids who are unhappy are more related to drinking and smoking and eating junk food.

Other studies have shown that exercise is a proven way to treat anxiety and depression. Future studies may support the idea that other healthful behaviors, including refraining(克制) from smoking, drinking, and eating too much junk, can avoid sadness and increase happiness, too.

1.What can we learn from the text?

A. Not smoking or drinking guarantees happiness.

B. Teens with flooding hormones can not be happy.

C. Playing sports can decrease teen’s unhappiness.

D. Unhappiness can certainly result in smoking and drinking.

2. Which of the following might help teens quit anxiety?

A. Smoking and drinking.

B. Taking exercise.

C. Eating junk food.

D. Going on a diet.

3.Which can be the best title for the text?

A. Ways to treat anxiety and depression.

B. Exercise and teenagers’ health.

C. Teenagers shouldn’t drink or smoke.

D. Teenagers’ lifestyle and their happiness.

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:2015年廣東汕頭普通高中畢業(yè)班教學(xué)質(zhì)量監(jiān)測(cè)英語(yǔ)試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

Americans gave nearly $300 billion away last year. Do you know the reason? Beyond the noble goals of helping others, it is that giving will make them happier.

It is a fact that givers are happier people than non-givers. According to the Social Capital Community Benchmark Survey, a survey of 30,000 American households, people who give money to charity are 43% more likely than non-givers to say they are “very happy” about their lives. Similarly, volunteers are 42% more likely to be very happy then non-volunteers.

The happiness difference between givers and non-givers is not due to differences in their personal characteristics, such as income or religion. Imagine two people who are identical in terms of income and faith, as well as age, education, politics, sex, and family circumstances, but one donates money and volunteers, while the other does not. The giver will be, on average, over 40 percentage points more likely to be very happy than the non-givers.

A number of studies have researched exactly why charity leads to happiness. The surprising conclusion is that giving affects our brain chemistry. For example, people who give often report feelings of euphoria, which psychologists have referred to as the “Helper’s High”. They believe that charitable activity produces a very mild version of the sensations people get from drugs like morphine and heroin.

Of course, not only does giving increase our happiness, but also our happiness increases the possibility that we will give. Everyone prefers to give more when they are happy. Researchers have investigated this by conducting experiments in which people are asked about their happiness before and after they participate in a charitable activity, such as volunteering to help children or serving meals to the poor. The result is clear that giving has a strong, positive causal impact on our happiness, so does happiness on giving

1.According to Paragraph 2. We can learn that .

A. only those people who gave money to charity will be happy

B. more givers say they feel having happy lives than non-givers

C. those who donate money are happier than those who volunteer

D. 42% of the volunteers say they are as happy as the non-volunteers

2.What causes the happiness difference?

A. Income. B. Faith.

C. Education. D. Donation.

3.The underlined word “euphoria” in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to .

A. relaxation B. uncertainty

C. nervousness D. pleasure

4.If a person feels happy, he may .

A. ask for more donations

B. stop charitable activity

C. be likely to give more

D. cook food for the poor

5.Which of the following is the main theme of this passage?

A. Giving brings happiness.

B. Americans love donating.

C. The happiness difference.

D. Feelings of volunteers.

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:2014-2015學(xué)年浙江重點(diǎn)中學(xué)協(xié)作體高三上第二次適應(yīng)性測(cè)試英語(yǔ)試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

You never see him, but they're with you every time you fly. They record where you are going,how fast you're traveling and whether everything on your airplane is functioning normally. Their ability to withstand almost any disaster makes them seem like something out of a comic book.They're known as the black box.

When planes fall from the sky, as a Yemeni airliner did on its way to Comoros Islands in the India ocean June 30, 2009, the black box is the best bet for identifying what went wrong. So when a French submarine (潛水艇) detected the device's homing signal five days later, the discovery marked a huge step toward determining the cause of a tragedy in which 152 passengers were killed.

In 1958, Australian scientist David Warren developed a flight-memory recorder that would track basic information like altitude and direction. That was the first mode for a black box, which became a requirement on all U.S. commercial flights by 1960. Early models often failed to withstand crashes, however, so in 1965 the device(裝置) was completely redesigned and moved to the rear of the plane – the area least subject to impact – from its original position in the landing wells (起落架艙). The same year, the Federal Aviation Authority required that the boxes, which were never actually black, be painted orange or yellow to aid visibility.

Modern airplanes have two black boxes: a voice recorder, which tracks pilots' conversations,and a flight-data recorder, which monitors fuel levels, engine noises and other operating functions that help investigators reconstruct the aircraft's final moments. Placed in an insulated ( 隔絕的) case and surrounded by a quarter-inch-thick panels of stainless steel, the boxes can withstand massive force and temperatures up to 2,000℉. When submerged, they're also able to emit signals from depths of 20,000 ft. Experts believe the boxes from Air France Flight 447, which crashed near Brazil on June 1,2009, are in water nearly that deep, but statistics say they're still likely to turn up. In the approximately 20 deep-sea crashes over the past 30 years, only one plane's black boxes were never recovered.

1.In Paragraph 1,the author wants to say the black box_________.

A. is an necessary device on an airplane

B. comes from a comic book

C. can prevent disasters

D. can control the function of an airplane

2.From the black box on the Yemeni airliner_________could be found.

A. the scene of the crash and the degree of the damage

B. the total number of passengers on board

C. data for analyzing the cause of the crash

D. homing signals sent by the pilot before the crash

3.Why was the black box redesigned in 1965?

A. New materials became available by that time.

B. The early models often got damaged in the crash.

C. Too much space was needed for its device.

D. The early models didn't provide the needed data.

4.The black boxes were painted orange or yellow to_________.

A. distinguish them from the colour of the plane.

B. warn people to handle them with care

C. make them easily identified.

D. obey the international standards.

5.What do we know about the black boxes from Air France Flight 447?

A. There is still a good chance of their being recovered.

B. There is an urgent need for them to be reconstructed.

C. They have stopped sending homing signals.

D.They were destroyed somewhere near Brazil.
