Students at Hopewell Junior High School started the band about six months ago. The band’s 27 members meet once a week for a two-hour practice after school.

On May 27, they played their sixth concert for 20 children in hospital. The band members also told stories for the patients and brought small instruments(乐器) for them to play.

Liam Watters, 13, plays the baritone(男中音) in the band. During one concert, he learned that one of the patients liked to listen to the singing, so he and a few other band members went back to the patient’s room and sang to him. “That was really cool,” Liam said. “They had big smiles on their faces.”

“We’re hoping that we can give more concerts here,” said Kerry Wilson, the head of the band. “It helps them to feel happy and enjoy being a part of our community(社区).”

8 . Kendall Harvey has an unusual hobby. He used to be a worker in a bike factory and retired (退休) six years ago. Harvey began working on motors and wheels, building himself a machine that he and his wife used to travel to the mountains. One day, while having a meal at a local restaurant, he met another dad out with his small son, who was disabled. He listened as the boy expressed a wish for a bike, like his friends. Harvey went home and started working, and soon he made a motorized (机动的) bike.

Since then, Harvey has made the dreams of 140 other children come true. Thanks to a donation from Wal­Mart, Harvey’s garage is filled with bicycles of all sizes, just waiting for him to rebuild them for a child. Through friends and relatives he hears about kids who can’t see or use their arms and legs because of injury (伤口) or birth defect (出生缺陷). Harvey meets the kids, talks to them about the kind of bike they’d like, then takes their sizes. He picks out a suitable bike, and adds extra wheels, a sidecar for dolls, or a small radio. Within a few weeks, he has made a child’s dream come true. They are independent because they have a bike.

Children of all ages use Harvey’s bikes. Several are in their twenties or even thirties physically, but mentally (心理上) they are five, six or seven. The price Harvey asks for all this is the pictures with them when they receive their machines, the hugs and kisses they give him, and the joy he sees on their faces as they operate the bike all by themselves. For him, that is enough.

1. Harvey’s hobby is unusual because ________.

A．he retired six years ago.	B．he is a s strange person.
C．he made bikes for the disabled for free.	D．he made a special machine for him and his wife to travel to the mountains.

D．140

4. What can’t he get for building these loved bikes for the disabled?

A．A lot of money.	B．Kisses from the children.
C．Hugs from them.	D．Pictures with them and the joy on their faces.

5. The story mainly talks about ________.

9 . This is such a heart-warming piece of news in the cold winter. Some days ago, the temperature was only -6℃ in Kaifeng, Henan. Someone ordered 50 cups of warm porridge (粥) through Meituan App and noted “Please give the porridge to those cleaners who are clearing snow on the road nearby and those delivery (递送) men who are delivering food.” When the porridge shop owner received the order, he was moved by the note and provided 60 cups.

The story didn’t end here. As soon as the food delivery man got the big order, he shared it with his workmates so that they could also get paid. Finally, Meituan returned the money to the porridge buyer, Mr. Zhang and gave him a reward of ￥500. Although he had to raise his newborn baby and pay for his house every month, Mr. Zhang said he would surely continue delivering love.

The kind help also encouraged many other citizens in Kaifeng. This summer, volunteers are sending cool drinks every day.

Similar stories have happened in many other places in China. Outdoor workers in different cities are able to enjoy free and caring help. Lots of “love posts” are providing “coolness” in hot summer and “warmth” in cold winter. Just as a citizen of Kaifeng said, “I feel deeply moved and warm in my heart.”

In fact, we get love and give love every day. Love makes our life better and more beautiful.
