3 . Leanne Carrasco ordered 95 pizzas (比萨饼). The high school senior and her friends filled up goody bags. But this was not your typical graduation party.     1     Instead, she decided to mark her high school graduation by giving back to the community. So she threw a pizza party at a homeless shelter for women and children in Houston, Texas. It took her a month to prepare.

Carrasco had volunteered before, with her family, at the Star of Hope Family Development Center. But this time was different.     2     In the month leading up to the party they collected toothbrushes, toothpaste and soap (肥皂). They packed them into 400 bags to hand out to residents (居民) of the shelter.

On Sunday, it was party time. The pizza was a hit, and so were the bags.     3     They had respect for these people. They made sure the residents knew that someone cared.

In all Carrasco and her friends served about 200 people. For the shelter residents, it was a magical day.     4    

Carrasco did a good job but she won’t let it go to her head anytime soon. The graduating senior plans to study nursing at Briar Cliff University in Iowa in the fall.     5     “I’d rather make a difference in the lives of the homeless residents at Star of Hope than have a big party,” she said.

A．Carrasco didn’t want that.

B．She was able to think of other people.

C．They lined up to give thanks to Carrasco.

D．She said she would continue giving back.

E．Carrasco decided to spend money on a party.

F．She invited a group of her friends and got to work.

G．But Carrasco and her friends gave the residents something more than just food and soap.

4 . An Olympic Village is a place that houses Olympic competitors. It is a place where they prepare for what might be the most important moment in their life. But we want to know more about this mysterious place: What really happens in the village?

We asked swimmer Natalie Coughlin, a three time Olympian and 12 -time medalist. She says, “People think it’s a lot more attractive and interesting than it is. It isn’t. It’s like a huge college campus, including a bank, a salon, a post office, and a huge cafeteria- except that everyone is anxious, getting ready for their biggest event under unbelievably high pressure (压力).”

But some other Olympians look differently at their campus. “It’s like the first day of college,” water polo player Tony Azevedo says. “You’re super excited. Everyone s meeting people and trying to socialize with others,”

Coughlin says the best spot to be in the village is the cafeteria. Not only does it provide a place to talk with the rest of the athletes from your country but it’s a great chance for people watching. One of her favorite games was to tell what sport someone in front of her took based on their body type.

Living in the same village means athletes run into one another all the time. Coughlin shares this story: While in London in 2012, at one point applause (欢呼) broke out at the arrival of someone. Coughlin thought it was one of the British royals (王室成员), but it ended up being Jamaica’s Usain Bolt (the world’s greatest runner alive). Runner Allyson Felix— a winner of six gold Olympic medals— has also had her run-ins. In 2008, she came across the world-famous U. S. men’s basketball team, including Anthony, Bryant, Wade and other top players.

It’s “a pretty wild scene, the biggest melting pot— a place where large numbers of people, ideas, and cultures are mixed together— you’ve been in,” said swimmer Eric Shanteau. Felix agrees, saying, “You get to meet people from other countries that you wouldn’t even come into contact with. To me that’s the coolest thing.

1. What does Coughlin say about the Olympic villagers?

A．They spend most of their time relaxing.

B．They enjoy the village very much.

5 . I first visited the UK on a vacation as a curious 15-year-old in 2013. The rich culture of London, the beautiful highlands of Scotland and the sunny beaches of Wales deeply attracted me. I decided then that I wanted to carry on my university education in the UK.

Fast forward to 2016 and I arrived at the University of Bristol. The first couple of weeks were great. But after my first month, I started missing my parents, my little sister, the food and the warm, sunny weather.

There was also another problem. Having always studied an Indian curriculum (课程), which is objective, learning based and strict, I found it difficult to adjust to several aspects of the British education system. The freedom of choosing which lectures (课) to go to, the highly subjective and thought-encouraging discussions at tutorials (辅导课) and a large amount of reading I was expected to do caught me off-guard.

It was not until my first end of term exams were over in January 2017 that I could show down and think carefully about the things that I was doing wrong and the things that I got right. The week after my exams ended, I realised how little time I had spent outside the university libraries and my living place.

So I tried new cafes in Clifton, and going for walks near the famous Clifton Suspension Bridge. I also started watching British TV shows. And I evolved socially too. I finally found the societies I wanted to join. I also realised the importance of staying in touch with my tutors and not being afraid of needing and asking for help. I made some amazing fiends in Bristol. Had it not been for the people around me, my first year would not have been as good as it was.

Overall, my second term ended on a much more relaxed and happier note than the first. I wrote my final exams in May and, before I knew it, I had finished my first year of university.

4. What would be the best title for the text?

6 . 阅读下面材料，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

Seventy-one-year-old retired judge, Leon,    1    (drive) his car one day last March when he had a sudden heart attack. He later learned that someone had offered him first-aid    2    (treat). Soon after he recovered, Leon was    3    (determine) to give thanks to whoever saved him.

    4    (search) the record that someone had called 911 that day, Leon found that he was saved by a lady named Susie Powell. “I was on my way to the office when I saw    5    (he) curl up (蜷缩) in his seat,” recalled Powell. Luckily for Leon, Powell had just completed a course on first aid. She immediately applied her first-aid knowledge    6    practice. She called 911. Then she got him out of the car and laid him    7     (mild) on his back.

Two weeks after the incident, the two met for lunch. Leon told Powell about his different     8    (interest). When Leon asked    9    he could do to thank her, Powell said he didn’t need to do anything. However,    10    idea came into Leon’s mind.

7 . NATIONAL PARK SERVICE

Last year, the National Park Service (NPS) marked its 100th anniversary with a year-long celebration.

    1    . It recognized the preservation and protection of the 417 park service units. Now that those festivities have wrapped up, it’s time to look toward what the next 100 years might look like for the nation’s parks. Here’s a look at some of the major issues facing the nation s parks now and over the next century.

    2    . For example, at Shenandoah National Park, park officials note that rising temperatures in streams have already impacted native fish. They are also concerned that climate change will lead to more droughts, floods and wildfires. At Golden Gate National Recreation Area in California, park officials are predicting heat waves, coastal flooding and habitat destruction in response to climate change.

Visitors behave badly. Today, visitors still aim to make their mark on the natural and cultural resources.

    3    . But the NPS now has its own branch of law enforcement (执法) officials who are tasked with protecting those resources for and often from park visitors.

There is maintenance backlog (积压).    4    . But the donations may drop sharply and raise the possibility of handing the parks over to private corporations. With budget shortfalls and maintenance at all-time highs, it’s likely that these sorts of partnerships will only become more likely in the future.

Despite some major concerns, the future of the NPS looks promising. With a renewed level of interest, and the help of some corporate donations, the parks will be protected for the next century.    5    .

A．Climate change will affect all parks

B．Yellowstone National Park deserves a visit

C．The NPS took a look back at the last century

D．The maintenance burden will be removed soon

E．And they may look different in the next 100 years

F．Those are protected by the National Park Service as they did years ago

G．At the moment, donations from private corporations are limited to signs and certain exhibits

8 . You probably take many steps to protect your computer from getting a virus, but what about your cell phone? Cell phones are basically mini-computers, so, believe it or not, they too can get viruses.

“Viruses and malware（恶意软件）should not be a major concern to the average consumer who uses their device to make phone calls, take pictures, and download a few well-known apps from the major app marketplaces,” Tim Katsch Vice President of iDropped said. “If a user is downloading a lot of apps, changing and exploring settings within the device, and visiting a large number of websites from unknown sources, virus and malware protection should be kept on their mind.” If your phone gets a virus it can mess up your data, put random charges on your bill, and get private information such as your bank account number, credit card information, passwords, and your location.

The most common way that you could get a virus on your phone would be through downloading an infected app. Viruses can also get on your phone when you click on strange links or open up an email that contains a virus. Connecting to an unsecured wireless network in a public place is also a way for hackers（黑客）to get private information from your device.

If you're still convinced that your phone might get a virus, there are anti-virus apps that you can download that will constantly scan your phone to make sure it hasn't developed a virus, Apps like these will also check things before you download them to ensure that they are safe. Another tip is to always look over your cell phone bill every month to make sure there aren't charges from apps that you never downloaded.

Technology is getting smarter, but so are hackers, and it's important to always be cautious with anything you do on your phone. Many people store a lot of personal information on their phones, and while that might make life a little more convenient, it can also do a lot of damage if hacked.

1. What can we learn from Tim Katsch's words?

A．The wireless network in the public places is safe to use.

B．Viruses and malware will most probably attack average phones.

C．Downloading a lot of apps will protect your phone from being hacked.

D．The average consumer needn't worry much about a virus or malware.

2. What's the most common way that your phone gets a virus?

A．Downloading an infected app.

B．Clicking on close friends' links.

C．Connecting to your mobile data.

D．Changing your private information.

3. What does the last paragraph convey?

A．Harm set, harm get.

B．Every coin has two sides.

C．Kill two birds with one stone.

D．Technology makes life smarter.

4. What may be the best title for the text?

10 . More and more Chinese are having English names, but not everyone is good at finding one. Why not offer them some help? An American girl called Lindsay Jernigan is now teaching people how to get better English names.

While working in Shanghai, Lindsay met many Chinese people with strange English names. Some of them chose a lucky number of “Seven,” a favorite fruit, “Apple,” and a cartoon character, “Snow White.” Others had names like “July” and “Rabbit.”

After noticing the problem, Lindsay had an idea. She quit her job and set up a website (bestenglishname.com) to help Chinese people get better English names.

The website helps people in two ways. After they take an online quiz, people will get five English names based on their personal information, such as age, job and even future plans. This costs 18 yuan. People can also meet with Lindsay to talk about their English name. But that costs more.

Now, about 2,000 people each day visit the website. Most of them are preparing to study or work abroad. Lindsay is planning to offer them more help, such as helping them write resumes (简历).
