Countless people long to make a difference this holiday season, yet they don't realize that opportunities to make a difference are everywhere. Here are some ideas to get you started.
    Organize a blank drive
    It is cold outside, but imagine how thousands of homeless people may feel without a home of their own, or even a blanket to keep them from the cold. Organize a blank drive for your local homeless, and ask around for donations!
    Practise random acts of kindness
    I'll never forget the time when I went to pay for my Dr Pepper, but the server resisted, saying my bill was paid by an anonymous(匿名的) guest. It's this random act of kindness that restores my faith in humanity. Bless someone by paying for their drink at Starbucks, or praising them! If you live somewhere where it snows, shovel your neighbor's snow out of their driveway for them! Whether it is as simple as praise or as complex as paying the bill, you'll never know how far your impact will reach.
    Say thank you
    Just a simple thank you can make somebody's day, especially if they feel like their work is never noticed. Cultivate(培养) a smile on their face by being sincere and grateful for all that they do.
    Use your talents to help the community
    The best way to show your appreciation for people is by using the talents and skills you have to bless others. For me, I love to coordinate(协调) events and write, and so my way of reaching out to the community is through writing articles and creating awareness about problems we face today. If you can bake, make some delicious cookies for people to enjoy! If you can knit, put your talents to use by making clothes for children in foster care. Any talent can be used to help the community in meaningful ways.
    Wish you a happy, healthy and helpful holiday season.
21. If you join a blank drive, you can _____.
A. keep yourself from the cold
B. bring a blanket to go on a trip
C. buy a home for homeless people
D. collect donations for the homeless people
22. The underlined phrase "make somebody's day" probably means "_____".
A. make someone feel grateful all day
B. do something unnoticed by people
C. make someone feel good all day
D. help someone to solve problems
23. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. Help Others in Need B. Make the Best of Talent
C. Enjoy Your Holiday Season D. Make a Difference in Your Holiday Season

B

  There is a social prejudice(偏见) against old people that they cannot understand or use modern technology. Activities like playing computer games, going on the Net and downloading MP3s are only for the youngsters. Isn't it unfair that old people enjoying a computer game should be frowned upon(反对) by their children and grandchildren?
    Nowadays old people have more control over their lives and they play a full part in society. Moreover, better health care has left more people in their sixties and seventies feeling fit and active after retirement. Mental activity, as well as physical exercise, can contribute to better health. Playing computer games is a very effective way of exercising the brain.
    When personal computers were first introduced, most old people didn't believe they would ever familiarize themselves with them. Now computers have been around for a few generations and retired people have gradually become more relaxed about using them for fun. Gamers over 65 prefer playing puzzle games and card games. Kate Stevens, aged 72, says, "I find it very relaxing. It's not very demanding, but you still need to concentrate."
    Another development that has favored "grey gamers" is a change in the type of videogames available on the market. There are a greater variety of games to choose from, including more intellectual and complex strategy and simulation(模拟) games. Internet Chess and Train Simulator are among the most popular of these. Train Simulator is based on real-world rail activities. Players can choose from a variety of challenges, such as keeping to a strict timetable and using helper engines during a winter storm.
Some people argue that "grey gamers" simply don't have the skills required for computer games, and that teenagers are better. This couldn't be further from the truth. Most computer games require the kind of analytical thinking that improves with practice, which means that the "grey gamers" may well be far better than gamers half a century younger than them. In games where speed is the main consideration, old people would be at a disadvantage because they may have slower reaction time. On the other hand, "grey gamers" have a preference for slower-paced, challenging mind games.
24. What does the author intend to do in the second paragraph?
A.Teach how to play videogames. B.Explain why grey gamers exist.
C.Stress the importance of good health. D.Show the best way to exercise the brain.
25.What was old people's attitude towards personal computers at first?
A.Doubtful. B.Concerned. C.Enthusiastic. D.Supportive.
26.What is the method the author uses to develop Paragraph 4?
A.Offering analyses. B.Giving examples.
C.Making comparisons. D.Providing details.
27.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 5 probably mean?
A.Challenging mind games are not suitable for older people.
B.Teenagers should improve their skills with practice.
C.Playing computer games requires analytical thinking.
D.Old people may perform well in some computer games.

It is common for you to see people around you yawn(打呵欠). But do you know why people yawn ? The most obvious answer is that we yawn because we are tired. But why does being tired make us yawn? How does yawning help us? The truth is that we don't know the answers to these questions. Scientists have different theories about why we yawn, but nobody has been able to prove them.
The first one is the "oxygen theory". In the past, one of the more popular theories was that we yawn in order to take more oxygen. When we yawn we breathe more deeply. According to this theory, our brains make us yawn because we need more oxygen. However, these days more and more scientists are against the oxygen theory.
The second one is the "brain cooling" theory. According to this theory, we yawn when our brains get too warm. Yawning makes our brains cooler again. When our brains are cooler, we can think more clearly. Yawning can help keep us alert(警觉). This theory hasn't been proven yet, but many scientists think that it will be in the future.
Here are a few other interesting facts about yawning. First, yawning is contagious(可传染的). If you see another person yawn, then you will be more likely to yawn, too. Second, we yawn even before we are born. Studies have shown that babies yawn while they're still in their mother's stomach. They start to yawn after 24 weeks. Finally, we are more likely to yawn when we're bored. Why is yawning contagious? Why do we yawn when we're bored or tired? The truth is that we don't have any answers to these questions, either.
32.What does "them" refer to at the end of the first paragraph?
A.Yawns. B.Scientists. C.Theories. D.Questions.
33.What does the article say about the "oxygen theory"?
A.It's the most recent theory.
B.Few scientists believe it now.
C.More and more scientists believe it.
D.We know that it's correct.
34.What happens when a person's brain is cooler?
A.The person gets more tired.
B.The person is in a bad mood.
C.The person thinks more clearly.
D.The person becomes less alert.
35.What can we learn from the passage?
A.We can yawn only after we are born.
B.We have known the answer why we yawn.
C.When we see another person yawn,we might yawn,too.
D.Scientists will never prove the "brain cooling" theory.
