Like most families living there, we stayed in a two-bedroom suite. We were living from paycheck to paycheck, so when Christmas approached, we didnt know if we would be able to purchase gifts for our children.A few days before Christmas someone dropped off presents for all the kids that lived at the motel. It brought so much joy to all the children, most of whom knew that they wouldnt be receiving anything.Five years ago, we moved out of the motel. After that, my husband and I were working hard at Joes Crab Shack to support our family. A few days before Christmas. I was working a big top and a single table. The man at my table could see the large tables was taking most of my time, but I was very patient and friendly. Between drinks and food I was able to chat with him about his family and mine. He left me $ 10, then walked out. About 10 minutes later, I turned around and there he was again. He gave me a hug, and put something inside my apron, telling me Have a Merry Christmas. I reached into my apron and pulled out $ 800.I was so overwhelmed by his generosity that I burst into tears. He had given me more than enough money to help my family catch up on our bills. After discussing what we should do with the money we had left over. We decided to buy presents for the families living at the motel, so we could pass on the blessing that we had received. Since then, it has been a tradition for us to give Christmas gifts to the families in need.Last year we were able to give presents to each of the 80 children at a school in our community, and throw a Christmas party for them.

The scientists found that the kids who had been instructed to spend more time outdoors over three years were 23 percent less likely to develop nearsightedness during this time than those who had not been instructed to spend more time outdoors. Moreover, among the kids who did become nearsighted during the study, the degree to which their eyesight worsened was slightly smaller among those who spent more time outdoors.The researchers selected six schools and required the children, whose average age was 7 at the start of the study, to attend one additional 60-minute class of outdoor activities during each school day for three years. The parents of these children were also encouraged to engage their children in outdoor activities after school, especially during weekends and holidays. The other half of the children, from another six schools, continued their usual activity patterns. After three years, 30.4 percent of the kids in the intervention group (干预组) had become nearsighted, compared with 38.5 percent of the kids in the other group.It is not clear exactly why spending more time outside would benefit childrens eyesight, the researchers said. However, some research has suggested that the higher levels of light intensity found outdoors may increase the release of the chemical dopamine (多巴胺) of the eye. In turn, dopamine is known to restrain the type of growth in the eye that is associated with nearsightedness.Based on the new results, the researchers recommend that children spend more time outdoors because of the potential benefits of their eyesight. However, its important to protect kids skin and eyes from UV(紫外的) light, which can be damaging.29. What did the children in the intervention group do during each school day? A. Attend an extra class of outdoor activities. B. Continue to do their usual activities. C. Spend one hour in doing eye exercises. D. Participate in outdoor activities with parents.30. What can be inferred about the chemical dopamine? A. It can contribute to poor sight.B. It can damage peoples brain. C. It is beneficial to eyesight.D. It means low levels of light intensity.31. What may be discussed in the following paragraph?A. How to design outdoor activities for kids.B. How to prevent kids becoming nearsighted.C. How to protect kids skin and eyes from UV light.D. How to encourage kids to join in outdoor activities.32. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. The More Time Outdoors, the BetterB. Kids May See Better if They Play OutsideC. Its Time to Engage Kids in Outdoor ActivitiesD. Researchers Found a Cure for Nearsightedness D“People are ruder today because they are rushed and more time poor than ever before,” says Patsy Rowe, “Manners have fallen off the radar(雷达).” Due to our strong attraction to electronic equipment it is a wonder more people dont wake up each morning and greet the singing birds with a complaint about the noise. Here are some examples of rudeness. Some people prefer to do almost everything over the internet. To them, dealing with an actual human is like an evolutionary step backward. It feels very slow because humans dont work at 4G speeds. When you have dinner with friends, you will often notice someone paying more attention to his mobile phone. We have programmed ourselves to think that every new message brings life-changing news, so taking calls and checking our texts are more important than talking to the people we are with. What is worse, some people even tend to send anonymous（匿名的）rude messages by email.However, rudeness is never acceptable. Dont assume it is OK to be rude if the person youre in touch with wont recognize you. If you have something awful to say, have the courage to face the person and say it, write a letter or email and sign it, or forget it. Upsetting people with unsigned messages is cruel and annoying.We shouldnt blame technology for our shortcomings. Technology is here to help us, but we should not allow it to take over our lives. An important step is admitting our shortcomings. People spend a lot of time pointing out bad manners but it would be even more helpful if wed publicly recognize good manners when we see them.33. Some people are less willing to deal with humans because_.A. they are becoming less patientB. they are growing too independentC. they have to handle many important messagesD. they have to follow an evolutionary step backward.34. The author thinks sending unsigned awful messages is _.A. ridiculous B. hateful C. acceptable D. reasonable35. What can we learn from the last paragraph? A. We should praise good behavior.B. Technology can never be blamed. C. We should keep pointing out mistakes.D. Technology will take over our lives one day. 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Is your child not included in activities or invited to play games during the break? If so, here are some ways you can help him.Acknowledge your childs concerns. Let him know and understand that what he is going through is hard for him and that you will do whatever you can to help. 36 Or set up a meeting with his teachers. 37 If your child talks about not fitting in or being picked on, comfort him and show concern about him. Help him learn some social skills and read social situations. Let him know that many children have experienced similar feelings or situations and try to help him come up with some solutions.Be your childs coach and teacher. As a coach, you need to remind him of the skills he already has. Meanwhile, just like a teacher, help him develop the skills he needs to solve the problem. 38 Get involved. 39 That will allow you to observe interactions between the other children. Seeing what the kids most enjoy, talk about, or play can give you enough information to help your children better fit in. 40 Sign him up for a team or activity such as an art or dance class outside his school, and observe whether he is left out by a new group of children. If so, try to find out what might discourage friendships from forming.A. Comfort your child.B. Identify your childs strengths.C. Look for new social outlets for your child.D. Consider volunteering or helping out in his class.E. It is important for your child to develop his confidence.F. Suggest searching the Internet or finding a book together that might be useful.G.
