共用题干第一篇Oseola McCartyLate one Sunday afternoon in September 1999,Oseola McCarty,an elderly cleaning lady passed away in the little wooden flame house where she had lived and worked most of her life.It may seem like an ordinary end to a humble life,but there was something quite exceptional about this woman.In the summer of 1995,McCarty gave $150,000,most of the money she had saved throughout her life, to the University of Southern Mississippi in her hometown. The money was to help other Mrican Americans through university.She had started her savings habit as a young child when she would return from school to clean and iron for money which she would then save.She led a simple，枷gal existence,never spending on anything but her most basic needs.Her bank also advised her on investing her hard-earned savings.When she retired,she decided that she wanted to use the money to give children of limited means the opportunity to go to university.She had wanted to become a nurse,but had to leave school to look after ill relatives and work.When asked why she had given her life savings away,she replied,"I'm giving it away so that children won't have to work so hard,like I did."After news of her donation hit the media,over 600 donations were made to the scholarship fund.One was given by media executive,Ted Turner,who reputedly gave a billion dollars.She didn't want any fuss made over her gift,but the news got out and she was invited all over the United States to talk to people.Wherever she went,people would come up to her to say a few words or just touch her. She met the ordinary and the famous,President Clinton included.In the last few years of her life, before she died of cancer,McCarty was given over 300 awards:she was honoured by the United Nations and received the Presidential Citizen's Medal.Despite having no real education,she found herself with two honorary doctorates:one from the University of Southern Mississippi and the other from Harvard University.Her generosity was clearly an inspiration to many people arid proof that true selflessness does exist.She gave her money away because________.A:she wanted to help the universityB:she wanted others to have the chance to become nursesC:she wanted others to have the opportunity to escape a hard lifeD:she wanted to he remembered after her death

Literacy Volunteer Last summer I went through a training program and became a literacy volunteer （扫盲志愿者）. The training I received， though excellent， did not tell me how it was to work with a real student， however. When I began to discover what other people's lives were like because they could not read， I realized the true importance of reading. My first student Jane was a 44-year-old single mother of three. In the first lesson， I found out she walked two miles to the nearest supermarket twice a week because she didn't know which bus to take. When I told her I would get her a bus schedule， she told me it would not help because she could not read it. She said she also had difficulty once she got to the supermarket because she couldn't always remember what she needed. Since she did not know words， she could not write out a shopping list. Also， she could only recognize items by their labels. As a result， if the product had a different label， she would not recognize it as the product she wanted. As we worked together， learning how to read built Jane's self-confidence， which encouraged her to continue in her studies. She began to make rapid progress and was even able to take the bus to the supermarket. After this successful trip， she reported how self-confident she felt. At the end of the program， she began helping her youngest son， Tony， a shy first grader， with his reading. She sat with him before he went to sleep and together they would read bedtime stories. When his eyes became wide with excitement as she read pride was written all over her face， and she began to see how her own hard work in learning to read paid off. As she described this experience， I was proud of myself， too. I found that helping Jane to build her self-confidence was more rewarding than anything I had ever done before. As a literacy volunteer， I learned a great deal about teaching and helping others. In fact， I may have learned more from the experience than Jane did.If the product had a different label，she would not recognize it as the product she wanted.（）A、TrueB、FalseC、Not Given
