【題目】“Holding girls back from an education is robbing them of their dignity (尊嚴(yán)),” says Mariam, a teacher, in an interview with Action Press.

“I feel proud when I tell people that I’m from Swat in Pakistan, with its green and mountainous valley. But I don’t feel proud about the number of women and girls where I’m from who are still being unable to enjoy the right for an education.

“I have taught many students — including Malaya, the young education activist who was shot in the head as travelling to school in Pakistan after campaigning for girls’ education. Among them I see the dignity that education can offer. This is why I have long been devoted to teaching, and why I am doing what I can to make sure that all girls have the chance to go to school.

“At the Khushaal school and college in Mingora, many girls are prevented from going to school because of poverty and fights. However, the most common reasons for girls not attending classes are cultural. People fear that females will become too independent if educated. Instead, parents prefer to marry off girls early. Girls and young women are considered a financial burden if left dependent on their parents.”

“In the school where I have been teaching for over ten years, I have seen how this discrimination plays out. Parents regard an educated and independent female as being too clever for her own. Even if parents agree to give a girl an education, a limit is set to the number of years for her to attend classes and it is common for girls to make it through only primary school. This is why I have been working tirelessly to change these damaging views and cultural practices. These are crimes against humanity (人道),which I have no choice but to strongly accuse of.”

“Malala was right to fight for her education.” says Mariam, who will be in New York with UNESCO (聯(lián)合國教科文組織), delivering a speech calling for world leaders to make sure every child gets a chance to go to school.

【1】What does Mariam take pride in?

A. Her dignity from education.

B. Her lifelong devotion to teaching.

C. Her hometown with fantastic scenery.

D. Her experience as a speech maker.

【2】What is the major reason to prevent girls from going to school?

A. The constant fights across the country.

B. The lack of financial support for schooling.

C. The limited time allowed to attend classes.

D. The traditional views on females’ social role.

【3】What will Mariam appeal for in her speech?

A. Accusing of the shooting of the schoolgirl.

B. Sex balance among children of school age.

C. Equal access for boys and girls to education.

D. Independence of girls with a good education.

【4】Which of the following is true about Mariam？

A. Malala event motivated her to work years for children.

B. She spoke in favour of Malala’s action in the interview.

C. A press invited her to attend a conference in New York.

D. She started a campaign with Malala for females’ freedom.

閱讀下面短文, 然后按要求寫一篇150個詞左右的英語短文。

If you ask people what makes them happy, you will probably get many different answers but there are two fundamental things that will ensure happiness.

The first part of what makes people happy is growth. When you feel like you are improving your life, that’s when you are happy. It doesn’t necessarily mean that you have to constantly buy bigger and better things. You need to feel like you are growing on a personal level. You need to know that the essence of who you are is continually improving in some ways. Keep looking for ways to make yourself better today than you were yesterday. This can mean different things to different people but the point is that you have to feel like you are improving and getting better as a human being as time goes by.

The second part of what makes people happy is the sense of contribution. Everyone wants to believe that they were put here to do something great. As long as you know that by your being here, by doing what you are doing, you are helping someone somewhere, it will bring you happiness.

These are two ways of how to find happiness. Are these the only answers to what makes people happy? That depends on how you define happiness.
