3 . Since its opening in 2018, the Yuanshan Charity Foundation (YCF) has been depending on the Internet to support the schools in West China areas. They hope that children in the western areas of China can get the same education as other children.

There is a young girl named Zhuoma in Qinghai Province. Her dream is to study law and become a judge(法官). In that area people usually speak Tibetan. That means Zhuoma has to learn both Chinese and English because they are very important in the test. But Zhuoma’s hometown is short of good middle school English teachers, which is a problem for her and her classmates.

In 2019, YCF opened English double-teaching classes for many western schools, including Zhuoma’s school. A teacher named Yin Chaoyang from YCF, together with Zhuoma’s teacher, provided the children with better English lessons. Teacher Yin’s classes were full of useful knowledge. Zhuoma liked them very much. She was very active in her studies, so she made great progress. Now Zhuoma is a law student in the Law Department of Nanchang University(大学).

In 2020, four more students from Zhuoma’s high school successfully went to their favorite universities with the help of double-teaching English lessons. YCF was very happy to see their dreams come true.

In China, there are still many schools like Zhuoma’s middle school. For the students there, some subjects are always weak and they need help and support. With more and more people joining in the project, I’m sure that the future of many children will be better.

7 . Sacha Jafri is a 44-year-old artist from England. During the time of COVID-19 last year, Mr. Jafri was in Dubai. Because he couldn’t move on, he wanted to make a really big difference. He decided to create the world’s largest painting.

Mr. Jafri began to paint. He used a huge ballroom (a room for dancing) in a hotel to do his painting. The hotel was closed because of the pandemic(疫情).

It took Mr. Jafri seven months to create the painting. He worked long hours often up to 20 hours a day. He hurt his back so much while he was painting. It took over 1,000 paintbrushes and 1,664 gallons (6,300 liters) of paints to create the painting.

Mr. Jafri hoped that his painting, called The Journey of Humanity, would help bring the world together during a difficult time. When he finished it last September, he set a Guinness World Record for the world’s largest painting. The painting is about the size of four basketball courts（篮球场）.

Since Mr. Jafri’s purpose was to raise（筹集）money to help children, he made the painting into 70 large parts. Mr. Jafri hoped that by selling the parts, he could raise $30 million.

9 . 阅读下面短文，按照句子结构和上下午连贯要求，在空格处填入一个适当的词或使用括号中的词语的正确形式填空。

I always wonder how much we can do for others. After volunteering in a hospital in Mexico, I began to understand the power of serving people.

There I met a little girl. I     1     (talk) with Dr Sussi when I heard her laughter from across the room. I saw a little kid holding a toy     2     laughing with my friend Kevin. But her skin looked very pale. “Do you know her story?” Dr Sussi asked. I shook my head.

“At     3     age of three, the girl got 80% burns on her body when her house was on fire. She     4     (find) and immediately sent to hospital.     5    (Luck), she was saved but her skin was…”

I was shocked that she had gone through so much. Her eyes were so innocent (无辜的) that she made me feel she was a     6     (health) girl. She probably didn’t realize that she was different     7     others.

Later, I learnt that her mom took her to the hospital     8     (play) with volunteers every weekend. It is probably the only place that she can be treated the same as other     9     (child). I hope the feeling of being loved by strangers can always stay with     10     (she).

10 . Italian architect Micoli still remembers how lonely and stressful she felt when she first moved to Shenzhen. When she realized that she could help the newly arrived Italians in Shenzhen, she didn’t hesitate for a moment.

“Doing volunteer work brings me happiness, satisfaction and friendship. Though I’m busy with my work, I enjoy doing it in my limited free time. I introduce Shenzhen’s history and tell them the best places to fix some problems,” said Micoli. “The community organizes dinners and lunches for people to talk face to face.”

Thanks to her help, many members of the Italian community in Shenzhen have settled down and gotten used to the life here over the past seven years.

Two years ago, three volunteers set up a free website italianinshenzhen.com to help the Italians who will come to Shenzhen get some basic information about the city. When Italians reach Shenzhen, they can join a dedicated (专用的) WeChat group where they can find any help they may need.

Micoli studied in Spain as an exchange student during her college years. Before living in Shenzhen, Micoli lived and worked in a number of different cities. “I’ve got chances to look at my culture from different perspectives (角度). I’ve also learned to accept different ways of thinking and found ways to improve myself in the process. For example, Chinese don’t like to get dark, so when we design swimming pools, we use shading and add lighting. It’s different from Italians who enjoy outdoor swimming,” said Micoli, who designs luxury hotels and resorts.

1. What is probably the main reason for Micoli’s being a volunteer?

A．To help the helpless new comers.	B．Many Italians come to Shenzhen.
