专题十六主旨大意A(2014郑州第二次质量预测)Its wonderful to go to another country,complete a volunteer project and feel that you really have a positive influence.But how can you become an international volunteer?*Plan practically.Contact the organization a few months before leaving and find out if there are materials which are rare and hard to attain for the project.What you often consider plentiful here,such as nails or hammers,is in great need in other parts of the world.*Do the project together,not on your own.You are a guest in the community.The most successful result is not that you build something and walk away,but that you and the community build something as a team.Share skills and build together.*Be flexible.Not everything is going to happen as planned.Often the country doesnt have the right tools,manpower,transportation or funds to get all the needed work done.In a word,it lacks infrastructure(基础设施).*Connect with the people in the community.Often you will have “downtime” outside of the range of the project.Rather than retreat to the group with whom you traveled,be sure to spend time with the people of the community.Listen to the things about their lives.If you cant speak the language,smiles work wonders.And you will be surprisedyou will find a way to communicate!Volunteering is a special and life-changing experience for everyone involved.Be prepared that the person who may be changed most is you.Its a joyful,often careful experience which will encourage you to view yourself,your neighbors and your world quite differently.1.When you volunteer to join in a project,you

is a disastrous idea.One of the opponents of multitasking is Dr. Clifford Nass,a professor at Stanford University.“People who multitask frequently are less able to pay attention;theyre worse at managing their memory,”he said.In his opinion,the loss that we get with multitasking is harmless in some situations,for example,part of doing business in the digital world;but you cant do serious work like writing,thinking or solving an important problem this way.You do worse even as you think youre doing better.All the time the research points to a simple fact:the brain cannot cope.When you stop midway through composing a report to check an email,you force your brain to stop and regroup.It is like pressing the pause button during a movie,meaning the film takes longer to watch.And as for Dr. Nass,the problems extend beyond the brain.Young people who frequently multitask are not as socially and emotionally healthy as those who dont.They just feel more emotionally satisfied and the feeling is so good and they are bound to desire it again.Todd Oppenheimer,a writer said,“Weve become a very short-term society and dont reward people for taking a lot of time on something.”He fears we may end up losing the next generation of great thinkers.“Its really unfortunate because the long-term challenges of our worldenvironmental issues,financial issuesrequire people to think wisely about the long-term consequences of what they do.And its no coincidence that the kind of people who do think long-term dont multitask.”1.According to Dr. Nass,multitasking .A.makes the performance emotionally

finish without distraction when playing a DVD.C.You have your office desk covered with paperwork from various unfinished projects.D.You feel that when you try to do too much at once,the result always

shouldnt be lazy if we want to accomplish many tasks#A【语篇导读】这是一篇说明文,主要介绍了要当一名国际志愿者应该具备的素质。1.B细节理解题。文章第二段说,在出发前的几个月联系好志愿服务机构,并了解志愿服务项目缺少的材料,你觉得很充足的东西比如钉子或锤子,在你要去的地方就可能会很稀缺,因此选B项,要事先做好准备。2.C细节理解题。由文章最后一段中的“Volunteering is a special and life-changing
