The moment I arrived in Paris，I was（46）Cby a nice French couple who would become my host parents．My entire experience was joyous and exciting（47）AI received some shocking news from my program coordinator：there had been a death in my host parents'extended family．They had to travel outside France for several weeks．That afternoon，I had to（48）Aout of one family's house into another．The exchange coordinator told me I'd have a（49）Cthis time and asked whether I could share a bedroom with an English speaker．To avoid the temptation（誘惑） to（50）Cmy native language，I asked not to be（51）Dwith an English-speaking roommate．When I got to my new room，I（52）Bmyself to my new roommate Paolo，a Brazilian the same age as I，whom I was surprised to find playing one of my favorite CDS!In just a few hours，we knew we'd be good friends for the rest of the（53）A．

4．To be or not to be．Outside the Bible （圣經(jīng)），these six words are the most famous in all the （36）Aof the world．They were （37）Cby Hamlet when he was thinking aloud，and they are the most famous words in Shakespeare  because Hamlet was speaking not only for himself but also for every （38）Bman and woman．To be or not to be，to live or not to live，to live （39）Dand abundantly and eagerly，or to live dully and meanly and scarcely．A philosopher once wanted to know （40）Dhe was alive or not，which is a good question for everyone to put to himself （41）B．He answered it by saying，"I think，（42）BI am．"
But the best （43）Aof existence ever seen was given by another philosopher who said，"To be is to be in （44）B．"If this is true，then the more relations a living thing has，the more it is alive．To live abundantly means simply to （45）Bthe range and intensity of our relations．（46）Dwe are so used to loving our routine．But apart from our regular （47）D，how much are we alive？If you are （48）Donly on your regular occupation，you are alive only to that extent．If （49）Athings are not concerned so far-poetry，music，pictures，sports，friendships，politics，international affairs-you are （50）C．On the contrary，it is true that every time you （51）Ba new interest-even more，a new accomplishment-you increase your power of life．No one who is deeply interested in a large variety of subjects can remain （52）D； the real pessimist is the person who has lost （53）C．
To be or not to be-to live intensely and richly，merely to exist，that fits with （54）A．Let's widen and strengthen our relations．（55）Awe live let live!

3．It's no secret that many children would be healthier and happier with adoptive parents than with the parents that nature dealt them．That's especially （36）Cof children who remain in homes where they're badly treated （37）Dthe law blindly favors biological parents．It's also true of children who （38）Cfor years in foster （寄養(yǎng)） homes because of parents who can't or won't care for them but （39）Bto give up custody （監(jiān)護(hù)） rights．
Fourteen-year-old Kimberly Mays （40）Cneither description，but her recent court victory could （41）Bhelp children who do．Kimberly has been the （42）Bof an angry custody battle between the man who raised her and her biological parents，with whom she has never lived．A Florida judge （43）Athat the teenager can remain with the only father she's ever known and that her biological parents have"no legal （44）D"on her．
Shortly after （45）Ain December 1978，Kimberly Mays and another baby were mistakenly switched and sent home with the （46）Dparents．Kimberly's biological parents，Ernest and Regina Twigg，received a child who died of a heart disease in 1988．Medical tests （47）Dthat the child wasn't the Twiggs'own daughter，but Kim only was，thus leading to a custody （48）Awith Robert Mays．In 1989，the two families （49）Cthat Mr．Mays would maintain custody with the Twiggs getting （50）Crights．Those rights were ended when Mr．Mays decided that Kimberly was being （36）A．
The decision to （52）BKimberly with Mr．Mays caused heated discussion．But the judge made clear that Kimberly did have the right to sue （起訴） （53）Cher own behalf．Thus he made it clear that she was （54）Ajust a personal possession of her parents．Biological parentage does not mean an absolute ownership that cancels（取消） all the （55）Cof children．

2．Children model themselves largely on their parents．They do so mainly through identification．Children identify with a parent when they believe they have the qualities and feelings that are（50）B of that parent．The things parents do and say-and the （51）C  they do and say to them-therefore strongly influence a child's（52）A．However，parents must at all times（53）A  like the type of person they want their child to become．
A parent's actions（54）C  affect the self-image that a child forms（55）D  identification．Children who see mainly positive qualities in their parents will likely learn to see themselves in a  （56）B way．Children who observe chiefly（57）A qualities in their parents will have difficulty seeing positive qualities in themselves．Children may（58）A  their self-image，however，as they become increasingly（59）B  by peer group standards．
Isolated events，even dramatic ones，do not necessarily have a（60）D  effect on a child's behavior．Children interpret such events according to their established（61）B  and previous training．Children who know they are loved can，for example，accept the divorce of their parent's or a parent's early（62）A．But if children feel unloved，they may interpret such events as a（63）A of rejection or punishment．In the same way，all children are not influenced at all by toys and games，reading matter，and television programs．As in the case of a dramatic change in family relations，the（64）B  of an activity or experience depends on how the child interprets it．

12．It's not uncommon in America for a person to belong to some kind of volunteer group．Donating one's time and services is very much a part of the American way of life．Most of charitable（慈善的）activities are organized by churches and community organizations around the nation and even encouraged by the government．The helping hand reaches the poor，the homeless and the disabled．
It appears that this willingness to give and share without calculating the cost becomes most evident around the holiday season when a spirit of goodwill stretches deep into the hearts of all people．
High school students are often encouraged to become volunteers and many school club activities center around volunteer services．Students may work with disabled children during a summer program，or participate in a club activity which helps to bring meals to senior citizens who are shut-ins．Students see such activities as a way of becoming involved in the community and the adult world．Social action for them becomes as important as their academic studies．
In a like manner，throughout the year，fundraising drives are conducted by schools and community groups to raise money for a designated（指定的） worthy cause．Dance marathons and church bazaars （義賣） help to gather a group around a needy project to gather funds．They may respond to a recent earthquake in a foreign country，a flood somewhere within their own，or another natural disaster which has left people destitute and homeless．They may organize drives to collect food，clothing and medicines to serve an immediate need．Today even the Halloween custom of"trick or treat"has become an occasion to collect money for a charitable cause．
This call to assist those less fortunate than themselves arises from the humble （卑微） origins of the American nation．Those immigrants who were poor became dependent on the kindness of their neighbors to make a new life for themselves．
Volunteers work throughout the world helping local governments in fields as diverse as education and agriculture．They volunteer by serving as a champion of goodwill both at home and abroad，which no doubt enriches both their lives and those whom they serve．

21．What can students benefit from volunteering？A
A．Gaining some social experience．
B．Developing their sense of idealism．
C．Knowing some experienced adults．
D．Improving their academic studies
22．The underlined word"destitute"in Paragraph 4 robably meansD．
A．lifeless         B．useless          C．worthless           D．penniless
23．The call to assist those less fortunate arises from the nation'sC．
A．rich natural resources
B．kindness
C．humble origins
D．rapid development
24．What can we learn from this text？A
A．American volunteers serve almost everywhere and in many fields．
B．Students often conduct raising events to gather funds．
C．The rich are often encouraged to become volunteers．
D．Volunteers mainly use holidays to collect money．
