An interview with a volunteer.
51.___________________
I am a member of our school’s volunteer association. During my freshman(大學(xué)一年級新生) year, I was asked to write up a plan for volunteers who assisted patients there. So I visited the hospice (末期病人療養(yǎng)所) several times. Later, I realized I could do more for the patients and so began volunteering.
52.___________________
When I was a freshman, I was not used to college life. I sometimes felt the hospice was like home. Here, many grannies treated me like their own relative, and I could feel strongly that I was needed. Just shaking hands made them come to life. I not only get great comfort from helping many patients get through the last period of their lives. I also learn a lot from their experiences.
53.___________________
You have to be prepared both mentally and physically. Most people at this hospice are facing death. So you have prepared to be patient and make them happy and relaxed. Also, persistence is needed. After seeing so many people here die, I know that persistence is hard. But you have to remember that you job is to help them feel less pain before death.
54.___________________
Good volunteers have something in common: They regard their job as a career, rather than some task that’s been assigned. They learn to enjoy what they are doing, no matter how boring it is. We have a volunteer who has been with us for more than a year. His job is translating letters from kids we helped. Even when he was busy with his classes, he would take a taxi to our office to pick up the letters. When we asked him why, he told us he enjoyed the kids’ stories and learned a lot from them.
55.___________________
Students are often very enthusiastic and direct. They give us feedback that helps us improve our work. And they value the opportunity we give them to broaden their horizons. However, they are still young and some are not responsible enough. And sometimes, they are lazy and careless.

Crossroads International
1．How does Crossroads work?
Crossroads is a resource network．We take goods Hong Kong doesn’t want and give them to people who badly need them．We collect those goods and give them out in the welfare arena （福利院） in Hong Kong, Mainland China, elsewhere in Asia, Eastern Europe and Africa．  71 
2．Who do we help?
  72 They are grass-root groups who have seen a need and tried to meet it．They can’t get the job done without back-up, though, so our task is to help them do their task．Our warehouse is full of goods, from computers to high chairs, clothing to books, stationery to medical provision, cupboards to dining sets．They send us a list of their needs and we try to match it with the resource we have in stock．
3．  73 
Crossroads itself also operates on a low budget．We do not buy the goods we send．They are donated．  74  Nobody in our organization receives a salary．Even our full-time staff work on a voluntary basis．
Those that donate goods and services:
●Factories             ●Manufacturers
●Hospitals             ●Hotels
●Educational Institutions      ●Householders
●Transport Companies   ●Offices
●Other Charities
  75 While we receive large quantities of goods and there is never a short supply of requests for them, we are always in need of hands to help sort and prepare them for shipping．
A．One resource that we are always in need of is people．
B．So Crossroads is just that: a Crossroads between need and resource．
C．What can I do?
D．The welfare agencies we help do not run on large budgets．
E．How do we operate?
F．All volunteer work is done at our warehouse．

Beliefs form a big part of our lives. Successful people have always believed that they can be and will be successful in their lives, such as Michael Phelps. Many of us have seen Michael Phelps win 8 gold medals in a single Olympic Games. That has created a history for himself. Many people have admired his success and the first reaction in their mind will be, “ Wow, how I wish I could be like him!” Have you ever wondered what brought him success?
In fact, anyone can achieve what they have wanted to achieve. It is about beliefs. Everyone is a born winner. It is this belief that drives an individual to be successful in his  or her own field. All successful individuals have strong beliefs and it is one of the bases  for their success. If we start to believe in ourselves, the things that we can achieve will definitely give us a pleasant surprise.
Other than having a strong belief, it is the attitude that drives the individual to create their own history. The devotion towards themselves and the drive must also be present. Imagine having a strong belief in oneself and having a poor attitude towards life. Then how would that individual turn out to be? One’s attitude comprises the drive, the devotion and the desire to achieve his goals. If one has strong beliefs about the goals that he can achieve and he displays good attitudes towards them, it would be no surprise to anyone that he will be able to achieve his goals.
Start believing in yourself and you will achieve your goals and with the right positive attitude, you will definitely be able to create the miracle that you have always dreamt of.

In every British town, large and small, you will find shops that sell second-hand goods. Sometimes such shops deal mostly in furniture, sometimes in books, sometimes in ornaments (裝飾) and household goods, sometimes even in clothes.
　The furniture may often be "antique", and it may well have changed hands many times. It may also be very valuable, although the most valuable piece will usually go to the London salerooms, where one piece might well be sold for hundreds of thousands of pounds. As you look around these shops and see the polished wood of chests and tables, you cannot help thinking of those long-dead hands which polished that wood, of those now-closed eyes which once looked at these pieces with love.
　The books, too, may be antique and very precious; some may be rare first printings. Often when someone dies or has to move house, his books may all be sold, so that sometimes you may find whole libraries in one shop. On the border between England and Wales, there is a town which has become a huge bookshop as well. Even the cinema and castle have been taken over, and now books have replaced sheep as the town's main trade.
　There are also much more humble shops, sometimes simply called "junk shops", where you can buy small household pieces very cheaply. Sometimes the profits (利潤) from these shops go to charity(慈善事業(yè)). Even these pieces, though, can make you feel sad; you think of those people who once treasured them, but who have moved on to another country or to death.
　Although the British do not worship(崇拜) their ancestors, they do treasure the past and the things of the past. This is true of houses as well. These days no one knocks them down; they are rebuilt until they are often better than new. In Britain, people do not buy something just because it is new. Old things are treasured for their proven worth; new things have to prove themselves before they are accepted.
57．Books found in second-hand book shops may_________.
　　A．be copies of the earliest printings    B．be on sale for the first time
C．never be worth very much          D．never be rare
58．Second-hand goods sometimes fill you with sadness because_________.
　　A．they are too expensive for average buyers
　　B．they remind you of the original owners
　　C．they are now forgotten
　　D．they are sold for charity
59．The average British person ___________.
　　A．does not respect old things because they are not fashionable
B．likes to build new houses simply because it is fashionable to do so
C．likes to buy new things because they are fashionable
　　D．does not like to buy things simply because they are fashionable

Hey, Mr．a(chǎn)nd Ms．Unluckiness and Unhappiness! Terrorism, the war, the economic crisis and unemployment are at your door．Are you afraid of them? Well, don’t be! America is a happy land．The Smiley Face icon proves this in towns all over the country．
The tallest structure—the steel water tower—is often painted bright yellow, in a circle containing a pair of black dots for eyes and an upturned（朝上的）line for a mouth: the unforgettable smile．Most towns decorated their spheroid (or cylindrical) water storage tanks in the 1970s, when Smiley was still conceptually fresh．As a "safe" counterculture symbol, with absolutely no bite, the Smile Face water tower was a low cost way to radiate sunny greetings to travelers and locals．Calumet City, Illinois claims to have been the first, when 8-year old resident Kim Fornero sent a letter to the city council in late 1972 suggesting a smile face would be more fun to look at than a plain old water tower．
In the 1980s, with the paint on the water tower fading, residents of Calumet City decided to make the face their own．They repainted the tower, and a Happy Cook Restaurant and Smiley Face Inn appeared on the highway outside the town, ready to make you smile! Local businessmen printed the Smiley icon on their business cards, and displayed Smiley Face souvenirs in shop windows．
By the late 1990s, the survival of the Smiley Face water tower was assured．It didn’t matter why the face had been painted there—it was now a part of history．In May 2009, the town again celebrated its Smiley Face water tower as a symbol of hope for a better tomorrow．
60．The author mainly wants to tell readers that the symbol asks them to_________
A．greet people politely       B．deal with their problems
C．enjoy themselves            D．forget the past
61．The underlined word “icon ” in the first paragraph probably means________.
A．beautiful picture      B．building    C．image       D．valuable painting
62．Why did Calumet residents accept the tower happily?
A．It set a good example to them.      
B．It made them work harder.
C．They wanted to think it for supplying water.
D．They wanted to make the Smiley Face their own.
63．From the text we learn that the Smiley Face water tower________
A．was based on a painter’s inspiration
B．is a symbol of the prosperity of the town
C．is meant to give people hope for a better future
D．was created in 1972 by the city council, just for fun
