Honest speaking, it was great surprise for me to find her working there. As far as I know, she’s from a richer family. What was it that made her to work there? I walked up to her and asked her the reason. When asking, she said, “I just want to earn some pocket money so that we can help some children in poor areas go back to school. ”How a good girl! I should learn from her.

9 . In her 17 years on this earth, Shreyaa Venkat has done more to help the planet and the people living on it than many adults. The non-profit organization she founded, NEST4US, has helped tens of thousands of people in the United States. Through it, it’s served over 12,000 homeless people in the Washington, D.C. area by providing food and other supplies.

Venkat’s passion for helping others started as soon as she could walk, as her parents, active volunteers themselves, brought her along on their various projects, like some creative ways to volunteer. By fifth grade, she’d developed such enthusiasm for it that she started organizing her own service projects in her community.

NEST4US was born when she realized how much food waste there is, how many hungry people there are, and how simple it would be to use the former to help the latter. “There was a homeless man standing on a corner in D.C. and he was holding a sign that said ‘Hungry Need Food’,” she recalls. “So I gave him my lunch and his whole face just lit up. It was so easy, it only took me 30 seconds, and it really helped him.”

As NEST4US took off, with hundreds of volunteers helping to feed thousands of hungry people, Venkat decided to branch out with her volunteer efforts, starting three other branches of NEST4US. Serving others had become such a way of life for her that she even celebrated her 13th birthday at a homeless shelter, bringing the party to them instead of expecting gifts for herself.

As much as she has helped others, they’ve helped her too. Not only does she get a lot of joy and personal satisfaction from her volunteer work but running NEST4US has taught her important life skills like time management, public speaking, writing, and leadership. “What it’s really given me is this opinion of putting other people first,” she says.

1. What can we infer about NEST4US from the first paragraph?

A．Its main aim is to make money.	B．It offers people cheap supplies.
C．It takes in all homeless people.	D．It is a charity organization.

2. What caused Venkat to set up NEST4US?

A．Her parents’ constant suggestion.	B．The memory of her hard childhood.
C．Her experience of helping a hungry man.	D．Volunteers’ great influence on her.

3. Why did Venkat spend her 13th birthday at a homeless shelter?

A．She held a grand party for many people.

B．She could receive many nice gifts there.

C．She got much personal satisfaction from it.

D．She saw helping others as part of her life.

4. Which of the following best describes Shreyaa Venkat?

A．Caring.	B．Ambitious.
C．Humorous.	D．Demanding.

10 . When I stepped out of Heathrow Airport, the British accents were music to my ears! The roads were so empty and traffic was so organized, with open spaces everywhere and so few people on the streets—what a difference from where 1 came—Mumbai. The difference was even more obvious after I had spent 21 years of my life living in that place. The streets were unfamiliar, and the faces were all foreign.

I boarded my bus for my university town. I felt like I had been in a fairytale book—the small houses, the quiet streets and the well-dressed people among other things. A small and beautiful three-storeyed building is quite a rarity back home and here, I have yet to see a building taller than that! Back home in India, the kind of rent I pay here could have afforded me a luxurious(豪华的） 2 bedroom-hall-kitchen apartment in a good location. But my accommodation here is the size of my bathroom back home! It’s just a fact... reality can be rude at times!

I really cherish the first day of my new university. I’ve met so many students from countries that I didn’t even know. But living alone in a new place, away from the protection of my family and friends, is a different experience altogether—a wonderful experience of further education!

It's been almost two months now. The novelty(新奇)is gradually disappearing, and the dust is settling down. It’s all just daily now but I feel fully settled. I really like this place. It feels like home!

1. What does the underlined part “that place” in paragraph 1 refer to?

A．Heathrow Airport.	B．Britain.
C．Mumbai.	D．A university of India.

2. What is the author’s first impression of Britain?

A．Dirty and noisy.	B．Different but poor.
C．Hopeful and inspiring.	D．Strange but beautiful.

3. What does the author probably do？

A．An international student.	B．A tourist from India.
C．A British college teacher.	D．An unknown writer.

4. What can we know from the last paragraph?

A．The author is less interested in everything because of dust.

B．The author still feels curious about everything around.

C．The author has been used to the new environment.

D．The author feels like going home after nearly two months.
