Why is volunteering important?

When it comes to service work, it’s important to realize that the actual goal should be getting the most out of your volunteering work. 1.

Gaining new social experiences

Volunteering allows students to get involved with new things and develop social and academic skills that couldn’t be learned in a classroom environment. 2.

Giving back and helping others

Volunteers create better environments for others; they create healthier communities and they brighten lives. Jill, a senior student, has been a volunteer in her community for more than three years. 3. “They always tell me how great we sound and how they wish they had taken time to learn an instrument in their youth.”

Creating connections with people

4. Not only does the volunteer work you do show who you are as a person, but it reflects many positive qualities that possibly employers and admission officers want to see. Volunteering allows you to meet a wide variety of people from all sorts of walks of life.

5.

Volunteering isn’t one of the most attractive jobs, but it is one of the most beneficial and uplifting(令人振奋的). It’s taking some time out of your day and helping others. Volunteer work makes us feel good. It builds self-confidence and lifts up the spirits.

As an adult, I like nothing better than to sit on the beach reading. Give me a satisfying “beach read” and I’m happy for days. However, I’m sad to say it isn’t really a thing for kids. Most kids would rather take their boards out beyond their parents’ comfort zone than read. And who can blame them?

But the truth is that even when kids are on vacation, they need the same sort of relaxation, and reading time that we adults look forward to. The trick is getting them to sit for 5 or 10 minutes to refresh their bodies and to enjoy the pleasure of reading.

Books tend to be kind of heavy and they can get wet or filled with sand and are then pretty much ruined. Book chapters tend to be kind of long. Your child may refuse to read. And if your kids are anything like my daughter, they may hate to close a book in the middle of the chapter.

You know what I’m going to say, right? Magazines won’t weigh you down. They can be thrown away if they get wet, and will provide just the right amount of reading for the times when my daughter is ready to sit under the umbrella and cool down for a few minutes. Literary magazines will allow your child to read wonderful fiction paired with beautiful illustrations. Discovery magazines deliver articles on all sorts of topics that will excite and interest your nonfiction lover.

So don’t leave the beach read behind when you pack the beach bags. Slip a magazine or two in the pocket of the bag and when your child needs a few minutes of downtime, pull it out and get them to sit for 10 minutes or so.

1.Who is the text most likely intended for?

A. Travelers.    B. Kids.

C. Parents.    D. Teachers.

2.What does the author really want to say in Paragraph 3?

A. Books are not the best choice for “beach read”.

B. Books become a burden for kids on holiday.

C. Kids don’t spend time reading books on holiday.

D. It’s a pity to throw away the books ruined on holiday.

3.What can we infer about the author’s daughter from the text?

A. She reads thick books during her holiday.

B. She prefers to read some literary magazines.

C. She takes some magazines with her on holiday.

D. She doesn’t want her magazines to weigh her down.

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

A. Enjoying Magazines on the Beach.

B. Making “Beach Read” a Thing for Kids.

C. Making Good Use of Kids’ Time on the Beach.

D. Packing Your Beach Bags with Literary Magazines.

Scientists have always been interested in the high level of organization in ant societies. American researchers have watched ants build life-saving rafts(筏子) to keep afloat during floods. They also have documented how ant colonies choose their next queen — the female whose job is to produce eggs rather than seek food for others.

New technology is helping to improve researchers’ understanding of the insects. But there is still a lot to be learned. Fire ants living in Brazilian forests are perfectly at home in an environment where flooding is common. To save themselves, the insects connect their legs together and create floating rafts. Some ant rafts can be up to 20 centimeters wide.

David Hu, who is a mechanical engineer with the Georgia Institute of Technology, also known as Georgia Tech, says, “If you have 100 ants, which means 600 legs, 99 percent of those legs will be connected to a neighbor. So they’re very, very good at maintaining this network.”

David Hu and other Georgia Tech researchers want to study ants and the secret of their engineering. They freeze ant rafts and then look at them with the help of computed technology, or CT, images. The pictures show that larger ants serve in central positions to which smaller ants hold. The larger ants form pockets of air that keep the insects afloat.

Scientists say small robots or materials that can change shape could be programmed in a similar way, working towards a shared goal.

Researchers at North Carolina State University are also studying ants. They examined how Indian jumping ants choose the leader of the colony when they lose their top female or queen.

1.The duty of the queen ants is to_____.

A. seek food    B. keep organized

C. lay eggs    D. keep guard

2.The author takes fire ants as an example to tell us _____.

A. how ants seek food perfectly    B. How ants save themselves from floods

C. how ants communicate    D. How ants connect their legs together

3.Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A. Ants know the way to form a harmonious society.

B. The Georgia Tech researchers first discovered Indian jumping ants.

C. All the worker ants in the colony are physically larger.

D. Small and shaped-changeable things might work just like ants do.

I can still remember it as if it happened yesterday. I was a college freshman and had stayed up most of the night before laughing and talking with friends. Now just before my first class of the day my eyelids were feeling heavier and heavier and my head was drifting down to my desk to make my textbook a pillow. A few minutes’ nap time before class couldn’t hurt, I thought.

Boom! I lifted my head immediately and my eyes opened wider than saucers. I looked around with my heart beating quickly trying to find the cause of the noise. My young professor was looking back at me with a mischievous, boyish smile on his face. He had intentionally dropped the pile of textbooks he was carrying onto my desk. “Good morning!” he said, still smiling. “I’m glad to see everyone is awake. Now let’s get started.”

For the next hour I wasn’t sleepy at all. It wasn’t from the shock of my professor’s textbook alarm clock either. Instead, it was from the attractive discussion he led. With knowledge and good humor, he made the material come alive. His insights were full of both wisdom and loving kindness. And the enthusiasm and joy that he taught with were contagious (有感染力的). I left the classroom not only wide awake, but a little smarter and a little better as well.

I learned something far more important than not sleeping in class that day too. I learned that if you are going to do something in this life, do it well, do it with joy, and make it an expression of your love. What a glorious place this world would be if all of us did our work joyously and well! What a beautiful world we could create if every doctor, teacher, musician, cook, waitress, poet, miner, farmer, and laborer made their work an expression of their love! Don’t sleepwalk your way through life then. Wake up! Let your love fill your work and your soul. Life is too short not to live it well.

1.What did the author want to do just before his first class of the day?

A. Take a short sleep.    B. Talk with his friends.

C. Get his eyes examined.    D. Stay away from the class.

2.The underlined word “mischievous” in Paragraph 2 probably means “________”.

A. curious    B. naughty

C. sensitive    D. dishonest

3.What else did the author learn that day?

A. Students should not sleep in class but respect their teachers.

B. Everyone should love his job and sleepwalk his way through life.

C. People from all walks of life should do their jobs with wisdom and love.

D. Life is too limited to make your work an expression of your love.

4.What can be inferred from this passage?

A. The professor often kept his students sharp by using a textbook alarm.

B. The author left the two-hour period not only wide awake, but a little smarter.

C. The author was attracted by the professor’s great wisdom and enthusiasm.

D. Though the author was frightened awake, he was not clear-headed in the class.
