Thanks to Jamii Bora, thousands of them are realizing their dreams.When Ingrid Munro worked in the UK she learned about the lives of the poor, so she always tried her best to help the poor. And in 1988,Munro and her Canadian husband had adopted（收养）a homeless boy. This boy had been run over by a bus and was unable to walk freely. Munros learning about the hard lives of the poor increased when she adopted the boys two brothers two years later.In 1999 she decided to start a small club in Kenya. The members would be 50 women, beggars who had been kind to children. No one imagined it could become so successful that it would change into a bank called Jamii Bora Bank. Munro did not expect that it would turn out to be such a great success. Instead of employing（雇佣） experts, she has trained those women herself. And she employs ex-beggars, the ones who joined them in the very early days and have come out of poverty. She teaches these beggars how to do everything from the beginning. What makes this bank different from others is the way they treat the borrowers. They help these poor people educate their children, and help with housing. They even teach business skills so that people can live a better life.31 . According to the passage, Jamii Bora refers to_.Aa lady named Ingrid MunroBa small bank in KenyaCa famous club in UK32 .

What would be the best title for the passage?AThe poorest places of KenyaBMunro and her husbandCFrom beggars to bankersIt is a question that has confused parents for many years: why do children refuse to eat greens?Now, two American experts believe they have the answer.After studying dozens of babies as they played with various objects, the researchers noted that they were far more unwilling to touch plants than other things. They believe this is because evolution (生物进化) has biologically made children be wary of plants.Due to susceptibility (敏感性) to illness or injury in the early years of life, the body has designed an inner defence mechanism (内部保护机制) that limits a child s contact with plants, they think. The researchers believe this is why children turn their noses up when faced with a plate of broad beans.The findings are published in a paper by Dr. Annie E Wertz and Dr. Karen Wynn, both psychologists at Yale University.They wrote, “Throughout human evolution. plants have been important in humans life. Yet, for all of these benefits, plants have always caused very real dangers.”“Plants produce toxins (毒素) as defences that can be harmful, or even deadly. Some plants also produce physical defences, such as thorns (荆棘) can damage tissues (组织) and cause effects over the whole body.”They added, “We predicted that babies may have behavioural strategies that reduce dangers caused by plants.”To test their theory, the researchers studied how children aged eight to 18 months old reacted when presented with a variety of objects. It took much longer for children to grab plants; objects that were pretended to look like plants also caused a slow response time.For parents attempting to spoon some peas into the mouth of their child, this finding should come as welcome relief.36 . The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 3 refers to_?Athe parentsBthe researchersCthe babiesDthe plants37 . What does the underlined word “wary” in the third paragraph mean?ACuriousBAfraidCTiredDCertain38 . What did early humans probably do in order to keep away from illness or injury?AThey choose to make more man-made things.BThey didnt allowed their children to touch plants.CThey chose to have little contact with plants.DThey tried very hard to escape from the past.39 . What was plants role in early humans life?AThey were important, in spite of danger.BThey reacted badly to human evolution.CThey contributed to the most deaths and illness.DThey developed human physical defenses against dangers.40 . Whats the passage mainly about?AWhy some plants are harmful.BHow humans react to plants.CWhy children dont like to eat greens.DWhen children from behavioural strategies.Rose usually wakes up early in the morning.
