Every night, unemployed men gather in Jackson Heights, Queens, New York. Many of them are homeless. All of them are hungry. At around 9∶30, Munoz’s truck arrives, filled with hot food. For many years, Munoz and his family have been feeding those in need seven nights a week, 365 days a year.
Munoz was born in Colombia and his father died in an accident when he was young. When his mother found it difficult to support the family, she came to New York, finding work as a nurse. As immigrants, they often suffered starvation. Later, he found a job as a bus driver.
Munoz began his meal program “An Angel in Queens” in the summer of 2009. At first，Munoz prepared 20 home­cooked meals daily. Numbers have gradually increased over the years. Now he serves 140 meals a night. Munoz gets up around 5∶00 a. m. to drive his bus route. When he gets home around 5∶30 p. m.—often stopping to pick up food donations—he helps pack up meals before heading out to “his corner” in Jackson Heights. He never fails to come. “If I don’t go, I’m going to feel bad,” he says. “I know they’re going to be waiting for me.”
Munoz says that the food costs about $400 to $450 a week; he and his family are funding the operation through their savings.
Asked why he spends so much time helping people, he says, “When I see these guys on the street, it’s like seeing me 20 years ago when I came to this city. Now I have a stable job, my mom, my family, a house...But these guys don’t. I hope they can at least have a meal to eat.”
24．Why did Munoz’s mother leave Colombia for New York?
A．She was born in New York. B．Munoz’s father worked in New York.
C．She was not used to the life in Colombia. D．She couldn’t support her family in Colombia.
25．What do we know about Munoz?

B．He gradually increases his meal programs in size.
C．He drives his bus route in Jackson Heights every night.
D．He gives homemade meals to those in need once a week.
26．What’s the main reason why Munoz helps those in need?
A．He has a large fortune.
B．He has enough spare time.
C．He does it in memory of his father.
D．He once suffered the same hardship.
27．What does the text mainly tell us?

B．There are many hungry people in New York.
C．A bus driver delivers free home­cooked meals.
D．Munoz’s meal program will be promoted in Colombia.

More and more birds are flying to settle at Qinghai Lake, one of the highest inland lakes in China, thanks to the protection efforts of local governments. Covering an area of over 4, 000 square kilometers, Qinghai Lake is also the country’s biggest salt-water lake. Located in Northwest China’s Qinghai Province, the lake is famous for the two islands at its northwest point—Cormorant Island and Egg Island. The two islands have plenty of floating grass and various schools of fish, offering rich food sources for birds. The islands have become a paradise for different kinds of groups of birds and have been called “Bird Islands”.
Each March and April, when ice and snow covering the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau starts to melt, over 20 kinds of birds fly to the Bird Islands to lay eggs. During the months, flocks of birds cover the whole sky over the islands and birds eggs can be found everywhere. Visitors can hear the singing of birds from miles away. These have become a world famous symbol of the lake.
To protect this paradise for birds and support calls for ecological protection, China set up the Qinghai Lake Natural Protection Zone at the end of 1997. Meanwhile, the State has pointed out the Bird Islands and Spring Bay of the Qinghai Lake as central protection zones.
Inspection officials and management employees often patrol the lake, improving local residents’ knowledge of related laws and spreading knowledge about animal protection to visitors. They are making great efforts to call on people to love and protect the birds. At the same time, they have built special fences around the island area to prevent wolves, foxes and other carnivorous animals, as well as illegal hunters from breaking up the birds’ nest-building, egg-laying and breeding. As a result, more and more birds are coming to the islands for sheltering and breeding.
28．Why are more and more birds coming to the biggest salt-water lake in the Great Northwest?
A．Because it is getting warmer and warmer.
B．Because it is being reformed.
C．Because environments there are getting more and more agreeable for them to live in.
D．Because the people there are becoming richer and richer.
29．The birds feed on ________according to the passage.
A．floating fish and various grass B．floating grass and different kinds of fish
C．salt water and plenty of grains D．corn from the local farmers
30．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A．The ice and snow covering the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau doesn’t change into water, unless more than 20 kinds of birds come to the Bird Islands.
B．Flocks of birds fly up to the whole sky over islands to lay eggs.
C．Visitors can listen to the singing of birds from miles away, but they couldn’t see any bird.
D．“The ice on the Plateau begins to change into water” means spring is coming.
31．The officials go around the lake mainly to ________.
A．let the farmers there know the animal protection law
B．tell the farmers there some knowledge about animal protection
C．call on people to love and protect the birds
D．all of the above

I have a special place in my heart for libraries. I have for as long as I can remember. I was always an enthusiastic reader, sometimes reading up to three books a day as a child. Stories were like air to me and while other kids played ball or went to parties, I lived out adventures through the books I checked out from the library.
My first job was working at the Ukiah Library when I was 16 years old. It was a dream job and I did everything from shelving books to reading to the children for story time.
As I grew older and became a mother, the library took on a new place and an added meaning in my life. I had several children and books were our main source (来源) of entertainment. It was a big deal for us to load up and go to the local library, where my kids could pick out books to read or books they wanted me to read to them.
I always read, using different voices, as though I were acting out the stories with my voice and they loved it! It was a special time to bond with my children and it filled them with the wonderment of books.
Now, I see my children taking their children to the library and I love that the excitement of going to the library lives on form generation to generation.
As a novelist, I’ve found a new relationship with libraries. I encourage readers to go to their local library when they can’t afford to purchase a book. I see libraries as a safe haven (避风港) for readers and writers, a bridge that helps put together a reader with a book. Libraries, in their own way, help fight book piracy (盗版行为) and 1 think all writers should support libraries in a significant way when they can. Encourage readers to use the library. Share library announcements on your social media. Frequent them and talk about them when you can.
32．Which word best describes the author’s relationship with books as a child?
A．Inseparable. B．Uneasy. C．Awful. D．Casual.
33．What does the underlined phrase “an added meaning” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A．Pleasure from working in the library. B．A closer bond developed with the readers.
C．Fun from acting out the stories. D．Joy of reading passed on in the family.
34．What does the author call on other writers to do?
A．Give money to book fairs. B．Write for social media.
C．Buy her novels. D．Support libraries.
35．Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A．Reading: A Source of Knowledge B．My Idea about writing
C．My Love of the Library D．Library: A Haven for the Young

How to Keep a Relationship Healthy and Strong
