The UN has designated December 5 as “International Volunteers Day” to give recognition to these people.Nineteen-year old Andrew Makhoul was a communications major at the University of Pennsylvania. It was coming up to spring break, but unlike his classmates, Makhoul wasnt planning on spending the break relaxing and blowing off steam. He decided to spend his time off doing something for people less fortunate than himself. He traveled to Guatemala, to an orphanage(孤儿院) in one of the most violent and poor parts of Guatemala city. It depends upon volunteers to stay open. He didnt speak much Spanish, but he found communication wasnt a problem: “You communicated with love.” And what he gave out, he got back: “You could see love when you looked in their eyes.” Makhouls first time as a volunteer only lasted a week, but by the end of that week, he knew hed be back in the future.Sometimes, volunteers themselves live with huge challenges. The UN highlighted the case of Palestinian women who are survivors of breast cancer. As part of the UNs Aid and Hope Programme for Patient Care, the women have been volunteering their names to create low-cost breast prosthetics(假肢) to be distributed to women for free.Shalhd El-Swerki worked with the women as part of the program. By the end of her time there, she admired these women who “are not only survivors, butalso volunteers.”About 2,400 years ago, Greek philosopher Aristotle said, “The essence of life” was “to serve others and do good.” Volunteers all around the world are making these words come true, each and every day.21. Makhoul would be back to volunteer for the orphanage most probably because .A. he was a good communications majorB. he wanted to distinguish himself from his classmatesC. the orphanage would close down without his workD. volunteering made his own life better as well22. The writer gets his points across mainly by .A. offering analysis B. providing explanationsC. giving examples D. making comparison23. What is the writers main purpose for writing this article?A. To advocate volunteering for others.B. To show concern over the global situation.C. To share two moving volunteering stories.D. To tell how to become a successful volunteer.BBeing a teenager can be tough. “Troubled” and “rebellious (叛逆)” are often what people give kids in their teens. There are even scientific theories explaining the probability of teenagers taking risks is due to the fact that their brains arent fully developed yet. In other words, they cant help but be difficult.But a new study at the University of Pennsylvania and Cornell University may have finally cleared up this misunderstanding. It turns out that teenagers are fine-they simply have a stronger attraction to new things and are eager to explore the world.“Whats happening is that adolescents lack experience. So theyre trying things out for the first time-like learning how to drive.” Daniel Romer, leading author of the study, told Psych Central.This characteristic is called “sensation seeking”, which is shared by a lot of people and usually peaks during adolescence. Instead of being something to worry about, sensation seeking is actually necessary, since the process of learning usually goes hand in hand with taking risks.“Teenagers need to build experience so that they can do a better job in making the difficult and risky decision in later life-decisions like Should I take this job? or Should I marry this person? ”said Valerie Reyna, co-author of the study.After all, if theres anything scarier than taking a risk and making a mistake in your teenager years, it might be to find out you have no life experience when you turn 18 and step out of your parents protection and into a world thats unknown to you.“Kids need the freedom to test out boundaries while still in a safe environment,” wrote Ann Robinson, editor of The Guardian. “Adolescence is a transitional period into adulthood. It cant be rushed or suppressed (压制). There is creativity, experimentation, freedom, and a degree of recklessness (鲁莽) in those years that fuels our later adult lives.”24.According to the new study, teenagers enjoy taking risks because .A. they are not physically mature yetB. they have no worries in life at allC. they desire to experience new thingsD. they have to make decisions in later life25. What is the authors opinion on adolescents sensation seeking?A. It leads to a scarier situation in their later life.B. It helps adolescents to avoid making mistakes.C. It urges adolescents to be independent of parents.D. Its a natural part of growing up and learning process.26. Which of the following might be the best title for the text?A. Problems during AdolescenceB. Adolescence Is All about the RisksC. How Adolescence Affects Adult LifeD. Differences between Teenagers and AdultsCSteamy bathrooms have vents, well-made pie crusts have vents and our planets surface has vents-we call them volcanoes.A thin crust of solid rock we live on sits on top of a thick layer of much denser(更浓稠), flowing molten rock called magma(岩浆). Big temperature (from 870to 2200) in the magma causes pressure to build up, pushing it upwards to the surface. Finding a weak spot it breaks through, relieving the pressure. This is easiest in the places where shifting tectonic(地壳) plates meet, which is why most of the volcanoes we need to worry about are dotted around the “Ring of Fire” bordering the Pacific Ocean. Of the global population at risk from volcanoes, 95% are just seven countries: Indonesia, the Philippines, Japan, Mexico, Guatemala, Ethiopia and Italy.Depending how long since their last eruption, volcanoes are regarded as extinct (no known volcanoes in at least 10,000 years and none considered likely); dormant (they havent erupted recently, maybe not for thousands of years, but could do so at some point) and active (showing signs of unrest up to and including erupting). But unless tectonic movements have left them far from the thinnest parts of the Earth, volcanoes can spring back to life.The largest eruption of the past 500 years was Mount Tambora, Indonesia, in 1815. The eruption killed about 70,000 people; 90,000 more died from the catastrophic global cooling that followed. In modern times, they also affect planes. Unlike normal clouds, ash clouds which consist of small glass pieces and tiny rocks can rise 30 km and travel more than 1500 km. If sucked into a plane engine these can melt and then solidify, causing numerous problems including potential engine failure.It is not possible to predict when or where the next eruption will take place. What is certain is that it will happen.27.What does the word “vents” in Paragraph 1 refer to？A. Openings that allow something to pass.B. Disadvantages that cause problems.C. Faults that are to blame for an accident.D. Weaknesses that stop a system working28. What is the main idea of Paragraph 2?A. The structure of our plant is much too complex.B. Volcanoes will be more likely to erupt in certain places.C. Volcanoes can do enormous damage to the global population.D. The release of the pressure under the crust results in a volcano.29. What is the main criterion for the classification of volcanoes?A. Places.B. Interval. C. Causes.D. Consequences.30. By what are planes affected when a volcano erupts?A. Flowing molten rock. B. Global cooling.C. Ash clouds. D. Engine failure.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入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Throughout history, hair has always been used to make a fashion statement. 31 For example, the ancient Greeks liked blond hair, so both men and women lightened their hair. On the other hand, the Romans preferred dark hair, and Saxon men are seen in paintings to have hair and beards of blue, green, bright red, and orange.32Primitive men put bones, feathers, and other objects in their hair to impress and intimidate their enemies. Later, the Romans made the people they conquered cut off their hair to show submission. In seventeenth century China, Manchu men shaved the front of the hair and combed the hair in the back into a braided tail. They also made those they conquered wear this style.Haircanrevealapersonsemotions,maritalstatus,orage.Forexample,ancientEgyptianmenandwomenusuallyshavedtheirhair.However,whentheywereinmourning,theygrewitlong. 33 InmedievalEurope,unmarriedwomenshowedtheirlonghairinpublic,whereas marriedwomencoveredtheirs.Today,bridesintheMaasaitribein Africahavetheir headsshavedaspartoftheirmarriageceremony and mothersinthetribeshave their sons hair when the boys become adolescents.Hairis usedto show personalities.34 EvenincountrieslikeChinaandJapan,wheredyedhairisconsidereduntraditional, up to 68 percent of women and 20 percent of men-most of them young-now use hair color to reflect theirindividualpersonalities.

His crewmen, Cordoba, a 22-year-old green hand, was loading the boat with the expensive icebox and food. “ Iheardthemsay,” he murmured,
