文章大意:本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一个英格兰的百万富翁变卖了资产而搬到了乌干达的一个泥屋帮助当地村民的故事。

2 . Jon Pedley is making a big change. He is giving up his life as a businessman for a life of helping others. He is trading his beautiful farmhouse in England for life in a mud hut (小屋) in Uganda, East Africa.

Pedley admitted that he had not always led a very positive life. At times he drank too much and got in trouble with the law. “I had always put the pursuit (追求) of money in front of everything else. As long as I was all right, I didn’t care who I was hurting,” says Pedley.

But a visit to Uganda in 2007 gave Pedley a new outlook on life. He was amazed at what he saw and how much the people there appreciated the work he was doing. “I worked there for a few days and these people who have nothing were thanking me by giving me bags of potatoes, which are a fortune for them,” he said. Now Pedley is selling his business, his $1.5 million farmhouse, and his expensive car—and moving into a hut made of mud and boards in a small Ugandan village. There he will help run an organisation that hopes to improve the quality of life for people in the village of Kigazi. He will help to build schoolrooms for children and tanks to hold clean water for villagers. Today, people in Kigazi must walk two miles to a hospital, so Pedley will help to build doctors’ offices, too.

Pedley’s organisation will also work with English teenagers who are in trouble. The teens will be sent to a “camp” in Uganda that Pedley will run. The teens will live in mud huts and help to build water, health, and education facilities (设施) for kids in Kigazi, many of whom have lost their parents to poverty or disease. Pedley hopes the teens will see a side of life that might help them turn around their own lives and set them on a new and more positive path.

1. Which of the following best describes Pedley in the past?
A.Negative.B.Creative.C.Positive.D.Selfish.
2. What will Pedley do in the small Ugandan village?
A.Do business with the local people.
B.Help farmers increase potato output.
C.Help villagers with building work.
D.Introduce tools to improve English teaching.
3. Why will Pedley work with English teenagers in trouble?
A.To encourage them to make friends with locals.
B.To inspire them to live a more positive life.
C.To train them to become doctors in the future.
D.To make them learn about different cultures.
4. What is the best title for the text?
A.From a millionaire to living in a mud hut.B.A life-changing adventure.
C.A rich man becoming homeless.D.More money, more worries.

8 . The national outpouring of grief(悲痛) at the death of two legendary academicians(院士)over the weekend, as if people had lost beloved members of their own families, offers much food for thought.

At 1:02 pm on May 22nd, 2021, liver surgeon Wu Mengchao, 99, died in Shanghai. He is known as the founder of hepatobiliary surgery(肝胆外科) in the country and was the teacher of roughly 80 percent of the nation's experts and doctors specializing in liver surgery today. Wu operated on thousands of patients, and saved at least 16,000 lives. Five minutes later in Changsha, Hunan province, agricultural scientist Yuan Longping died at the age of 91. He was known as the father of hybrid rice who helped lift the nation out of hunger.

With their dedication to science and commitment to the people, the two devoted their lives to saving lives and improving people's livelihoods. Together with generations of their students, they not only made a big difference to the lives of the Chinese people, but also many living in other developing and least-developed countries.

Wu insisted that medical science is humanity while Yuan's lifelong dream was always to enable the Chinese people to fill their own bowls with rice. What makes Wu and Yuan great is not only their achievements, but also their shared attachment to the people. The public's spontaneous(自发的) outpouring of grief at their deaths, which has been rare in the country for decades, shows how much their down-to-earth dedication to improving people's lives touched hearts throughout the country.

Yuan and Wu are just two representatives of the large numbers of scientific workers that have devoted their lives to their research, giving the country's people-centered development principle with more practical meaning. The country needs more scientists to inherit and carry forward their spirit. Even those in other walks of life can draw inspiration from the two academicians' commitment to their dreams, care for the people, and unconcern about material enjoyment, so as to make the best of what life grants for themselves and others.

1. Which two fields do the Wu Mengchao and Yuan Longping specialize in?
A.Education and agriculture.B.Medicine and social science.
C.Education and social science.D.Hepatobiliary surgery and agriculture.
2. What does the underlined word “dedication” in Para 3 mean?
A.devotionB.influenceC.explorationD.respect
3. Why did the academicians’ death grieve the whole nation?
A.Because the modern Internet helped to spread the news.
B.Because Wu and Yuan are well known over the country.
C.Because people think it necessary to follow the sorrowful trend.
D.Because they made great contributions and shared selfless love to the people.
4. What’s the best title for the text?
A.A sorrowful weekend
B.Let their scientific spirit live on
C.Two great academicians passed away
D.The great contributions of two great scientists
