    A cup of coffee is a good way for many people to start their day. It can also pass on kindness.

Manyang Kher used to be a Sudanese child refugee(难民). When he was three years old, his village was burnt in the war. He was separated from his parents and never saw them again. He became one of the 20,000 young Sudanese who had to leave their home for Ethiopia’s Gambella area. He lived there as a refugee for 13 years.

When he was 16, Kher went to the United States. While he was in college, he started a program to help the refugees. Now, he owns a coffee company (公司) called 734, which is a part of his program. The company has helped more than 200,000 refugees living in the Gambella area till now. Kher said, “I know the difficulties and pains they face every day. You see kids die from hunger. You see kids dying of illnesses. You see kids running away from the refugee camp to find a place to be home, but die on the way.”

Eighty percent of the money made by the coffee company is used to send more of the children to school. And, as Kher explains, the money helps refugees to help themselves. For example, a cup of 734 coffee can also buy one fishing net() for a refugee. They can fish for themselves.

Kher sells the coffee online and to coffee stores. Megan Murphy owns a coffee store in Washington, D.C. She serves 734 coffee in her store and people love it. The coffee tastes delicious, so it’s a win-win on both sides.

1.Kher left his home when he was three years old because ________.

A.his parents opened a store B.his village was burnt in the war

C.he had to move to the US D.he lost his home in an earthquake

2.Kher helps the refugees by ________.

A.making fishing nets B.offering coffee to them

C.starting a program D.sending them back home

3.We can infer from this passage that ________.

A.Kher sells his coffee both online and to coffee stores

B.you’re helping the refugees when enjoying 734 coffee

C.coffee from Megan Murphy’s store tastes delicious

D.Megan Murphy is one of the refugees in Gambella

 

1.B 2.C 3.B 【解析】 文章大意:本文主要讲述了一个咖啡店的老板Manyang Kher来源于难民,现在用挣到的钱服务于难民的故事。 1.细节理解题。根据第2段中“When he was three years old, his village was burnt in the war. He was separated from his parents and never saw them again.”可知是因为他的村庄在战争中被烧毁了。故选B。 2.细节理解题。根据第3段中“When he was 16, Kher went to the United States. While he was in college, he started a program to help the refugees.”可知他开始了一个帮助难民的项目。故选C。 3.推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Kher sells the coffee online and to coffee stores.”可知Kher既在线上卖咖啡,也卖给咖啡店,A项正确;根据第4段中“Eighty percent of the money made by the coffee company is used to send more of the children to school”可知卖咖啡赚的百分之八十的钱被用于送更多的孩子去上学,由此可推出当你享受734咖啡公司的咖啡时也是在帮助难民,B项正确;根据最后一段中“Megan Murphy owns a coffee store in Washington, D.C. She serves 734 coffee in her store and people love it. The coffee tastes delicious, so it’s a win-win on both sides.”可知说的是734咖啡尝起来很美味,并非来自Megan Murphy店里的咖啡都尝起来美味,C项错误;文中并未提到Megan Murphy是难民,D项错误。题目问我们能从文中推断出什么,A项是可以直接得出的信息,排除。故选B。

Father and son

     The other day, I was sitting in the study and working on my website, a cup of tea on the table and old songs from my computer. It was a special pleasure to have such a _________ day after weeks of hiking, snowboarding and going crazy.

“Hi dad! Want some orange juice, graybeard?” Coyote yelled (叫喊) to me much louder than_________“No, just bring me some chips!” I shouted back.

One time, when I misheard what he said three times in a row, he ___________that I had become too old and started to hear worse. Since then, yelling at me has become a kind of family joke.

Pushing everything to the limit was the basis of Coyote's character. On one hand, it helped him to achieve tasks he had to do on his own, and he did great, making me proud of him. On the other hand, this brought him___________, as he did not know when to stop. At such moments, I would behave superfatherly, and give him advice and warnings that he usually ignored (忽视). When he wore a green haircut, I would try to convince (说服) him to paint it black. When he got a tattoo (纹身), we had a / an _________ . All these surely drove me mad, and the big fights started. It is strange but when I was a teenager, my father would act exactly the same and it took me a long time to understand him.

“Dad, let me show you something,” Coyote said as he was getting back. “Don't get too _________ , okay?” I sighed (叹气), because I was almost sure of what I was about to see.

When he ___________his T-shirt, I saw a new tattoo: some Buddhist symbol, I guess.Coyote has been interested in Asian culture for a long time.

“Control yourself, graybeard,” I said to myself, trying not to yell something like,“Why the hell would you need another tattoo after you already made that huge first one?”

The next moment I realized that my yelling would not _________ anything; the tattoo was already on Coyote's skin.

And then I thought: “Hey, what if I get a tattoo myself?”
