Even more amazing is that the person behind it is just 21.When Alice Pulford was waiting to get into university, she took a five­month teaching position in Malawi.She loved the place, and returned in the spring of 2009 to visit her friend Zulu in Tilinanu.His aunt Mercy owned land there and was doing her best to provide an education for the orphans, many of whom had lost parents to AIDS or malaria(瘧疾)But after helping Mercy out for some time, Alice realised that what the girls in particular really needed was a safe and permanent place to live.There was a derelict(年久失修的) church on Mercy's land.“If you give me the church, I'll set up a home for these children，” Alice told her.Mercy agreed.Alice phoned home and told her family about her plan.The family had already helped Alice raise 1，800 to assist the orphans.After they received Alice's call, they threw themselves into raising another 6，000, organising theatre trips and special parties and dinners.Alice found Malawian builders, selected materials and even helped with the brick­laying.In ten weeks, the church became a dormitory with toilets and a living area.In spring last year, Alice raised another 19，000 to build the medical centre and two new dormitories.The girls are happierand so is Alice, who has been spending around four months in Malawi a year.“The orphans think they're gaining from me, but when I see their smile, it transforms me，” she says.36Over a year ago, the orphans didn't have _Aa classroom Ba teacherCshelter Dfood37What is known about the home Alice has built for the orphans?AIt looks like a community hall.BIt depends on the villagers' help.CIt provides a place for recreation.DIt benefits both the children and adults.38Pulford's family are _Ashort of money Bfond of entertainmentsCsupportive of each other Dunaware of Alice's plan39What has Alice learned from her experience?AMoney­raising is a family business.BWinning orphans' smile calls for skills.CAIDS has made many children parentless.DHelping others brings changes in a person.短文填詞Mobile phones are becoming more and more popular with teenagers.

His mother feels very puzzled, asking, “Xiao Ming, why are you staying here instead of doing your homework？” Xiao Ming smiles, saying, “ Mother and father, I come here to wash the feet for you. This is one of our assignments in the winter vacation.”I think it is a good idea. Respecting parents is one of the good virtues of the Chinese people. But at present many pupils are only­children in their families. They are often spoiled and don't know how to care for others. By washing feet and pouring cups of tea for parents, children will learn to respect parents and care for others. In the future, they will certainly become useful persons with good manners. *結(jié)束閱讀理解A few days ago I asked my sons governess (家庭女教師) Julia to come into my study.“Be seated，Julia，”I said，“Lets settle our accounts.I guess you most likely need some money，but maybe youre too polite to mention it.Now then，we agreed on thirty dollars a month.”“Forty.”“No，thirty.I made a note of it.I always pay our governess thirty.Well，um，youve been here for two months，so.”“Two months and five days.”“Exactly two months.I made a special note of it.That means you have sixty dollars coming to you.Take nine Sundays off.you know you didnt work with Tom on Sundays，and you only took walks.And three holidays.”Julia was biting her fingernail nervously，her face red，but，not a word.“Three holidays，therefore take twelve dollars off your pay.Four days Tom was sick and there were no lessons，as you were occupied only with Dick.Three days you had a toothache and my wife gave you permission not to work after lunch.Twelve and seven makes nineteen.Take nineteen off.that leaves，hmm.forty­one dollars.Correct？”Julias left eye reddened with tears welling up.Her chin trembled，and she coughed nervously and blew her nose，but still not a word.“Around New Years Day you broke a teacup and a saucer；take two dollars off your pay.The cup cost more，because it was a treasure of the family，but forget it.Then，due to your neglect(疏忽)，Tom climbed a tree and tore his jacket；take away ten.Also due to your carelessness the maid stole Dicks shoes.You ought to watch everything！You get paid for it.So，that means five more dollars off.The tenth of January I gave you ten dollars.”“You didnt.”sobbed Julia.“But I made a note of it.”“Well.if you say so.”“Take twenty­seven from forty­one，and that leaves fourteen.”Both her eyes were filled with tears.Beads of sweat stood on the thin pretty little nose.Poor girl!“Only once was I given any money，”she whispered，her voice trembling，“and that was by your wife.Three dollars，nothing more.”“Really？You see now，and I didnt know that！Take three from fourteen and it leaves eleven.Heres your money，my dear.Three，three，three，one and one.Here it is！”I handed her eleven dollars.She took them and pocketed them.“Merci(Thanks)，”she whispered.I jumped to my feet and started pacing the floor.I was overcome with anger.“For what，this merci？”I asked.“For the money.”“But you know Ive cheated yourobbed you！I have actually stolen from you！Why this merci？ ”“In my other places they didnt give me anything at all.”“They didnt give you anything？No wonder！I played a little joke on you，a cruel lesson，just to teach you.Im going to give you all the eighty dollars！Here they are in the envelope all ready for you.Is it really possible to be so spineless(懦弱)？Why didnt you protest？Why were you silent？Is it possible in this world to be without teeth and claws(爪)to be such a fool？”Embarrassed，she smiled.And I could read her expression，“It is possible.”I asked her pardon for the cruel lesson and，to her great surprise，gave her the eighty dollars.She murmured her little “merci”several times and went out.I looked at her and thought，“How easy it is to crush the weak in this world！”16While talking to Julia，the writer expected_from her.Aa protestBgratitudeCobedienceDan explanation17What shocked the writer was Julias_.Anervousness in front of her bossBacceptance of

leaves，withering flowers，cold winds，faint sunshine.For many people late autumn can be a season of gloom and depression.Spirits can be low.People who suffer from “the autumn blues” are often extremely exhausted，lack energy，need more sleep，feel increased appetite and gain weight.“The exact cause of this condition，often called seasonal depression or seasonal affective disorder(SAD)，is not known yet，” says Chen Jue，associate professor at Shanghai Mental Health Center.“But recent studies indicate that weather change is influential and strongly suggest that this condition is caused by changes in the availability of sunlight.”O(jiān)ne theory is that with decreased exposure to sunlight，the biological clock that regulates mood，sleep，and hormones is delayed，running more slowly in winter.Exposure to light may reset the biological clock.Another theory is that brain chemicals that transmit information between nerves may be altered in individuals with SAD.It is believed that exposure to light can correct these imbalances.“It is a sad season，but you can try to make it happy.Remember，spring always lives in your heart，” Chen says.Here are some tips to deal with autumn depression.Go outdoors and get some sunlight.Move around.Fresh air and exercise can improve the respiratory(呼吸) system and blood circulation and regulate the nervous system.Thus，exercise is calming and relieves ones mood.Relax at work.Stretch，breathe deeply.Take a tea break.Think of your next vacation.Keep a chocolate bar in your pocket.Chocolate and sugar raise the spirits.Look at bright colors，such as red and orange.Colour therapy improves mood.Listen to your favorite music.You can dance to it，or just lie on a cozy couch，reading a novel.Decorate your room and work space with flowers.Blooming plants are
