    At 12 years old, Braeden Mannering is already well on his way to running an empire! A 2016 win of Delaware's Healthy Lunchtime Challenge brought Braeden to the White House, where the president asked the children at the event to think about how they could pay the experience forward.

A few days later, on the drive back home, Braeden saw a homeless man in the rain. He had his parents stop so that he cold give the man a bag of snacks. Braeden knew at that moment that this was how he wanted to pay it forward. He knew what he wanted to do in the future. He felt that it was his duty to help people in trouble.

Since that day in July,2016,Braeden has handed out over 8,000 bags to the homeless through his organization Brae's Brown Bags, also known as 3B.These bags vary (各不相同) in contents, and include food, toiletries (化妆品) and even books for the kids 'bags.

In addition to packing and distributing (分发) bags, Braeden travels the country, giving talks in schools to inspire other young people to help their communities. On his travel, he's raised$60,000 to expand his program. He also is a leader at the annual Delaware Hunger Conference, where he encourages kids to write to lawmakers and help pack bags, showing them how to make a difference.

This is a huge accomplishment, especially for someone of his age. But, as he says, “Anyone can change the world, as long as you dream big."

A.The bag. B.The experience.

2.What does the boy's organization try to do?

1.B 2.D 3.C 4.A 【解析】 这是一篇记叙文。12岁的小男孩Braeden Mannering牢记“把爱传递出去”,通过自己的3B组织救助无家可归者,还积极参加其他公益活动,并激励其他孩子来一起让这个世界更美好。 1. 词句猜测题。根据第一段中的“the president asked the children at the event to think about how they could pay the experience forward”总统要这次活动中的孩子们想想他们可以怎样把这次经历传递出去,结合第二段的内容, Braeden knew at that moment that this was how he wanted to pay it forward. Braeden在那一刻知道这就是他要把它传递出去的方式。“it”指的就是“the experience”。故选B。 2. 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Since that day in July, 2016, Braeden has handed out over 8,000 bags to the homeless through his organization Brae’s Brown Bags, also known as 3B”可知,从2016年七月的那一天起,Braeden通过自己的3B组织给无家可归者发放了8000多个包裹。故选D。。 3. 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Braeden travels the country, giving talks in schools to inspire other young people to help their communities. On his travel, he’s raised $ 60,000 to expand his program”可知,他全国旅行,在学校做报告鼓励其他年轻人帮助他们的社区。在旅行中,他募集到了60,000美元来扩展自己的项目。C选项“去拜访一些立法者”并不是Braeden全国旅行的原因。故选C。 4. 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“This is a huge accomplishment, especially for someone of his age”所言:这是一项巨大的成就,尤其是对于像他这个年龄的人,可知作者认为就年龄而言,他很了不起。故选A。

阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。

The day of the balloon festival, I felt as light as a hot-air balloon. This year I wouldn’t just be watching. I’d be riding in Mr. J’s truck, following the flight of the balloon and meeting it when it came down.

It was a perfect day. Dad and I drove down the road, circled along the lake and turned into the field that was being used as a parking area. Dad pointed to the lake. “That’s where the balloon festival will take place.” he said. We came to a stop and I got out of the car. And then I saw it, a white bird with black stripes, brown head, and skinny legs. It screamed and beat its wings in the dirt in front of the cars that were driving downhills. Its wings looked broken. Suddenly it cried bitterly and flew off.

“Dad,” I called, but my father was watching the balloons.

“It’s a killdeer(北美喧鹆).” A silver-haired old woman said to me, adding that there must have been a nest here somewhere. “In the parking area?” I asked. She nodded firmly. “It was a nesting place before it became a parking area. No one told the killdeer about the balloon festival!”

“Jack!” Dad called “Isn’t it time you went down to meet Mr. J?”

“I have got to go.” I said to the woman but she pointed with her walking stick. There, on the ground was a perfect nest of eggs, looking like pebbles(卵石). They were almost in the path of cars, trucks and motorbikes.

Suddenly, the parent bird was back to its nest and its wings both twisted again. “Jack!” Dad called again. “The balloons are ready to fly.”

“Dad! I am…” A truck roared over the hill. Brakes(刹车) screamed and dust flew. “What’s the matter?” asked Dad angrily from the truck.
