試題分析: 本文屬于廣告類文體。主要內(nèi)容是招募愿意幫助有學(xué)習(xí)障礙的志愿工作者。在廣告中提到了招募的志愿者的職位是Volunteer Social Care Assistant ,志愿者將要工作的時間,地點,待遇(沒有報酬但是提供免費飯菜),以及對申請人員的具體要求和工作內(nèi)容,同時要求志愿者需要有愛心,而且有類似的工作經(jīng)驗的人會優(yōu)先錄用。
1.考查推理判斷。文章開頭以自問自答的方式向人們發(fā)出號召,讓人們參與到志愿活動中,然后在下文詳細(xì)介紹了志愿者工作的地點、時間、任務(wù)、要求等,由此可知文章主要目的是宣傳這項工作,故答案選D。
2.考查詞義猜測。在文章開頭作者提出問題:你希望通過你的工作而使別人的生活有所改變嗎?然后鼓勵人們加入進(jìn)來,由此判斷加入進(jìn)來后就會實現(xiàn)自己的愿望,即通過自己的工作讓別人的生活更加有意義,故答案選A。此題易誤選答案為D,make it 意思是“成功地做到或得到”因為開頭作者只是問讀者是否想獲得工作中的滿足感,而沒有提出這是一份工作招聘信息,所以D選項錯誤。
3.考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)文章倒數(shù)第二段內(nèi)容:But your primary concern is to let them know they are valued 可知志愿者們除了幫助保護(hù)智障患者的安全外,最重要的任務(wù)就是讓那些被幫助的人感到自身的價值和重要性,故答案選D。
4. 考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)文章末段的小標(biāo)題Skill and Experience Required.和末段中 Previous care-related experience will be a great advantage for you. 可知有先前類似經(jīng)驗的人在申請這項工作時會優(yōu)先得到錄用,故答案選B。

The kids in this village wear dirty, ragged clothes. They sleep beside cows and sheep in huts made of sticks and mud. They have no school. Yet they all can chant the English alphabet, and some can make words.
The key to their success: 20 tablet computers(平板電腦) dropped off in their Ethiopian village in February by a U.S. group called One Laptop Per Child.
The goal is to find out whether kids using today’s new technology can teach themselves to read in places where no schools or teachers exist. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology researchers analyzing the project data say they’re already amazed. “What I think has already happened is that the kids have already learned more than they would have in one year of kindergarten,” said Matt Keller, who runs the Ethiopia program.
The fastest learner—and the first to turn on one of the tablets—is 8-year-old Kelbesa Negusse. The device’s camera was disabled to save memory, yet within weeks Kelbesa had figured out its workings and made the camera work. He called himself a lion, a marker of accomplishment in Ethiopia.
With his tablet, Kelbasa rearranged the letters HSROE into one of the many English animal names he knows. Then he spelled words on his own. “Seven months ago he didn’t know any English. That’s unbelievable,” said Keller.
The project aims to get kids to a stage called “deep reading,” where they can read to learn. It won’t be in Amharic, Ethiopia’s first language, but in English, which is widely seen as the ticket to higher paying jobs.
1.How does the Ethiopia program benefit the kids in the village?
A. It trains teachers for them.
B. It contributes to their self-study.
C. It helps raise their living standards.
D. It provides funds for building schools.
2.What can we infer from Keller’s words in Paragraph 3?
A. They need more time to analyze data.
B. More children are needed for the research.
C. He is confident about the future of the project.
D. The research should be carried out in kindergartens.
3.It amazed Keller that with the tablet Kelbesa could _______.
A. learn English words quickly.
B. draw pictures of animals.
C. write letters to researchers.
D. make phone calls to his friends.
4.What is the aim of the project?
A. To offer Ethiopians higher paying jobs.
B. To make Amharic widely used in the world.
C. To help Ethiopian kids read to learn in English.
D. To assist Ethiopians in learning their first language.

閱讀短文, 按照題目要求用英語回答問題。
Last December, Doris Low turned 90. Once a week she still drives to the Canadian National Institute for the Blind (CNIB) in Toronto, where she helps transform literature into Braille() to bring the power of story and knowledge to the hears and minds of blind readers. She has been volunteering her time and talents to such enterprises foe more than 40 years.
After working in the business world for a while, Low got fed up. So she turned to teaching at a technical school and later moved into the library.
Low’s mother liked reading. As her eyes began to fail, low read to her. Then “ hearing an advertisement encouraging people to learn Braille, I decided to give it a try.” In 1973, she was certified as a braille transcriber (轉(zhuǎn)譯者) and began transcribing books as a volunteer for the CNIB library.
The job was strenuous ---she could get to the end of a page, make a mistake on the last line, and have to do the whole thing again. For a number of years, low also worked in the CNIB sound studio reading books onto tape. Three years ago, she took up proofreading (校對) at the CNIB’s word factory.
In April, during Volunteer Week, the CNIB recognized Low for her great contributions. Thanks to volunteers like Low, the CNIB library has got more than 80,000 accessible materials for people unable to read traditional print. “ I can’t imagine how many readers of all ages have benefited from
Doris’s contribution as a skilled volunteer through her rich voice and her high degree of accuracy in the hundreds of books she has brailled and proofread over the years--- and she is still doing so,” said a CNIB official.
“For me,” said Low, “the CNIB is more than just a place to volunteer. Three thins matter most in my life: a little play, a little work, a little love. I’ve found them all here.”
1.What does Low still do at the age of 90 at the CNIB? ( no more than 10 words)
2.Why did Low learn Braille? ( no more than 15 words)
3.what does the underlined word “strenuous” most probably mean?(1 word)
4.What are Low’s contributions to the CNIB? ( no more than 10 words)
5.What do you think of Low? Give your reasons. ( no more than 20 words)
