Being a superhero to others

Ewan Drum has always liked superheroes. He likes how they help people. At age seven, he told his parents, “I want to dress up like a superhero and help the homeless. ” 1.Wearing his red superhero cape (斗篷), Ewan helped pass out 70 bag lunches to hungry people in a park in Detroit, Michigan. That’s how Super Ewan was born.

2.People donated(捐赠) money and supplies (供给物), and Ewan took them to those in need.

When someone donated jugs(大罐) of water, Ewan and his family drove their car to get even more. They took the water to Flint, Michigan, a city that had unsafe drinking water. Another time, a businessman donated six turkeys(火鸡) for Thanksgiving.3.“In the end”, he says,“we gave 64 turkey dinners to families all around Detroit.”

Ewan has a motto: Everyone can be a superhero to someone. At an event called the Hero Round Table, Ewan told the audience,“It’ s not hard to help people.You can keep some socks and food in your car to help people in need. You can help a neighbor with doing the garden. 4. .”

It' s been several years since Super Ewan started his task. Every month, he still visits the same park to hand out clothes, food, and supplies to people who are hungry or homeless ---his Super Friends. 5.

1. E 2. A 3. G 4. D 5. B 【解析】 本文是一篇记叙文,Ewan Drum是一位慈善家,七岁的时候就开始帮助他人,在他人眼里他就是一位超级英雄。 1.根据横线后句“Wearing his red superhero cape (斗篷), Ewan helped pass out70 bag lunches to hungry people in a park in Detroit, Michigan.”可知Ewan把70袋的午餐分发给饥饿的人。这种慈善行为是要事先计划的,E项“A few months later, Ewan ’s family planned a day of giving.”符合上下文语境,故选择E项。 2.根据横线后句“People donated(捐赠) money and supplies (供给物), and Ewan took them to those in need.”可知人们捐钱捐物给Ewan,可知他的善良行为被人们所熟知。A项“News spread about Ewan’ s act of kindness.”符合上下文语境,故选择A项。 3.根据横线前句“Another time, a businessman donated six turkeys(火鸡) for Thanksgiving.”可知有人捐了六只火鸡,本句应该讲述Ewan如何处理火鸡。G项“With his parents’ help, Ewan asked for more turkeys through the Internet, plus side dishes.”讲述的正是此项内容,符合上下文语境,故选择G项。 4.横线前面两句“You can keep some socks and food in your car to help people in need. You can help a neighbor with doing the garden.”所列举的是日常生活中我们可以做的帮助他人的小事,这些微不足道的小事会让别人感觉很幸福。D项“Every little thing helps and can make someone feel happy.”与语境相符,故选择D项。 5.根据最后一段“No matter what, ”Ewan says, “I will always keep helping people.”可知无论发生什么事情,Ewan都会一直坚持帮助他人。B项“This superhero says he’ ll never take off his cape.”符合上下文语境,故选择B项。

It’s hard to talk to Dad sometimes. His silence about his feelings and thoughts made him mysterious and hard to see through. You could never break his hard shell and get to know him. And he seemed to want to stay that way too.

But a year ago when my relationship with my wife and career took a hit, I needed my dad to pull back the curtain so I could see him as real and accessible. I was facing serious problems, and I wanted to know whether he had faced them before and how he had found his way, because I felt like I had lost mine. In desperation, it occurred to me that sending an email might be the key, so I wrote him one, telling him about my regrets and fears, and I asked him to answer, if he felt like it.

Two weeks later, it showed up in my inbox: a much­thought, three­page letter. Dad, a 68­year­old retired technologist and grandfather of four, had carefully considered my message, and crafted a response. He mentioned his lost love, the foolish mistake he made in career and the stupid pride he had between him and his parents. He comforted me that “life will still find its right track despite many of its twists and turns”.

I closed the email and started to cry, because I wished I had opened it up earlier but was grateful it wasn’t too late. I cried because at first, in the midst of my own struggles, his letter instantly put me at ease. And I cried because in the end, it was so simple: I just had to hit “Send”.

We’ve since had many email exchanges. This increasing communication opened a door into his world. My problems haven’t been magically solved, but getting to know my dad better has made the tough stuff more manageable and life sweeter. It’s hard to talk to Dad sometimes, but I’m glad I found a way to talk to mine.

Nola (August 21, 1974 -November 22, 2015) was a northern white rhino(犀牛) who lived at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park near Escondido, California. At her death, she was one of only four remaining northern white rhinos in the world. The other three lived in Kenya. World Rhino Day, held on September 2, is to raise awareness(意识) of the less than 30,000 other rhinos left on Earth.

“Rhinos need our help today, not tomorrow,”Nola’s lead keeper Jane Kennedy said. “Last year we lost over 1,200 rhinos just in South Africa. If we continue to lose more than 1,000 rhinos a year, in 10 to 20 years all the rhinos on the planet will be gone.”

“Unfortunately, most animals are in danger of dying out because of humans,” Kennedy says.“ Humans have either poached animals, or because there are over seven billion of us, we’ ve taken up too much of the world’s resources ”. Poachers illegally hunt rhinos for their horns. They sell the horns for thousands of dollars per pound, to be used for art, jewelry, and decorations.Experts believe that one rhino is poached every eight hours.

In 1975, the San Diego Zoo Institute for Conservation Research started the Frozen Zoo, a program through which researchers have collected cell (细胞) samples from more than 8,000 different types of animals, including the northern white rhino. Scientists hope that by studying the rhino cells, they will get greater understanding of it, and will find ways to increase its numbers.

Jane Kennedy describes World Rhino Day as “a celebration of rhinos along with an awareness campaign for everybody across the world to know that rhinos need our help.”At the San Diego Zoo, children and adults are welcome to visit and speak with zookeepers to learn about rhinos. But you don’ t have to live in San Diego to celebrate World Rhino Day. It is observed around the world, with zoos and wildlife parks holding special events and programs to teach people about rhinos, and enable them to see the animals up close. For more information, go to www.worldrhinoday.org.

1.What do we know about Nola?

A. It was a baby white rhino.

B. It was one of the last of its kind.

C. It lived with other northern white rhinos in Kenya.

D. It died on September 22 at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park.

2.What troubled Jane Kennedy according to Paragraph 2?

A. The rhinos’ uncertain future.    B. The rhinos’ strange activities.

C. The limited natural resources.    D. The rare animals in South Africa.

3.What does the Frozen Zoo aim to do?

A. Invent new kinds of animals.    B. Keep animals from dying out.

C. Prevent rhinos from being hunted.    D. Raise public awareness of rhinos.
