But dont worry. Theyre not mad. Its all part of a money raising event called Red Nose Day.Founded in 1985 by two British comedians, the aim of the event is to raise money to fight poverty and injustice in the UK and Africa. Celebrities and public figures support the event by making appearances on comic TV shows. For example, the former UK Prime Minister David Cameron once appeared in a music video by One Direction, which the band produced for the event.Britons dont just raise money for charitable causes on one day a year, but they do it all year round. One way of doing so is by shopping in charity shops. These small shops sell clothes, books and household goods just like any other shop except that theyre all secondhand.There are nearly 10,000 charity shops in the UK. Their business model is simple: anybody who has things they dont want anymore can donate them to a charity shop, where they are checked for damage, cleaned and priced. The money that is made by selling them is used for a charitable cause.The idea of buying used clothes may sound unpleasant, but for shoppers who have less spending money, it has been a welcome option. Now, shopping at charity shops is also becoming popular with young people looking for alternative fashion. “You can find very unique clothes for a very cheap price. It doesnt bother me that other people may have worn them. I simply wash them before I wear them，” said Anne Marie, a 19yearold from the US.So next time you spot a charity shop, why not go inside? Who knows, you might find a lovely dress for just a few pounds. Even better, you can enjoy wearing it in the knowledge that your money helped a good cause.语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了在英国人们经常做慈善。5Why did Cameron appear in One Directions music video?ATo earn a living.BTo support the band.CTo help raise money.

The trip was for 2 weeks during the March break from school. This trip was probably about 20 years ago so it was before the time of things like portable video games and being able to watch movies in the back seat.So to pass the many hours of travel my brother and I had to entertain ourselves and each other. My mum would set the back seat up so that it was our own little playroom. She would pack everything up so that we had a big level area to play in. We would play cards and board games.When it got to the point where we_were_at_each_others_throats we would be sent back to our own side of the seat and would be forced to either nap or read by ourselves until we could be friendly to each other again. I can remember us playing for quite some time when we turned the back seat into a spaceship and traveled around the earth.Another time we turned it into a kitchen and had a bakeoff (食品烘烤赛). But the thing that I remember the most and that gave us many hours of enjoyment was using each others faces as silly Plasticine (普莱斯蒂辛橡皮泥) and making funny faces. We would see how far we could stretch each others mouths open, see how thin we could make the others eye by pulling on it. We would keep going until one of us begged for mercy because we had to give our faces a rest.So while I can remember us having a great time on the beach, laughing a lot trying to put the tent up in the rain, what I remember the most of that trip and what always makes me smile the most is remembering the pain that our faces would be in after the trip.语篇解读：本文为记叙文。作者回忆了小时候在没有电子游戏机、不能在坐车时看电影的旅途中打发时间的方式。12What did the author do when traveling to Myrtle Beach?AWatch movies.BPlay video games.CHave fun with his brother.DPack things up to amuse himself.解析：选C细节理解题。由第二段中的“So to pass the many hours of travel my brother and I had to entertain ourselves and each other.”可知答案。13What does the author mean by saying “we were at each others throats”？AWe were fighting with each other.BWe used up our skills.CWe were quite out of breath.DWe were about to fall asleep.解析：选A句意猜测题。下文的“. until we could be friendly to each other again.”说明画线部分的意思应为“互相打斗，激烈争吵”。14What impressed the author most during the trip?APlaying cards and board games.BPulling each others faces and eyes.CHaving a cooking competition.DPlaying with silly Plasticine.解析：选B推理判断题。由第四段中的“But the thing that I remember the most .hours of enjoyment was using each others faces .by pulling on it.”可知，旅途中作者印象最深的是和弟弟彼此拉对方的脸或者眼来做鬼脸。15Which of the following titles would best suit the passage?AAn Unforgettable Family TravelBWhat Is the Most Meaningful JourneyCThe Good Old Days Never to Be ForgottenDHow to Kill Time While Traveling in the Past解析：选D标题归纳题。结合文章内容看，本文主要谈论的是在没有便携式游戏机、不能在后座看电影的情况下，作者一家去旅游时，作者在途中消遣的方式，故D项做本文标题最佳。.阅读七选五(2017石家庄高三调研检测)Learning to set goals plays an important role as your child starts to gain independence.
