Volunteering abroad is an excellent way to learn from others in new lands. Volunteers can

share their skills and energy while gaining meaningful global experience in the service of others.

At the same time, top colleges and universities favor international volunteer experiences. There

are a wide variety of programs abroad offering volunteer opportunities.

WWOOF International

WWOOF provides opportunities to volunteer abroad on small, independent organic farms.

You work for a few hours each day, in exchange for food and accommodations. WWOOF stays

can be short (a few days) or long (up to 6 months)—depending on your needs and travel plans,

as well as the needs of the farm. Most programs require volunteers to be 18+.

GoEco

GoEco is an eco-tourism company, attaching great importance to responsible volunteering.

GoEco offers a varied selection of affordable volunteer projects abroad. It works with over 150

community, wildlife and environmental plans all over the world and carefully checks every

program. GoEco’s goal is to ensure that you enjoy your experience in another country so much

that you share the experience with other potential volunteers as part of the global green and

responsible movement.


International Volunteer HQ(IVHQ)

While traveling abroad can be expensive, International Volunteer HQ offers affordable and

available projects in over 45 different destinations. It has supported over 90,000 travelers to

volunteer abroad safely since 2007 and has an experienced team of volunteer travel experts. The

focus on safety is what makes IVHQ a popular choice for individual travelers, couples, families,

and groups.

B

As a little girl growing up in the early 1960s in a suburb of Pittsburgh, it was not always

easy to find role models. But I was lucky. In my childhood, I knew smart, strong women who

had accomplished much, one of whom invented the world’s first computer compiler（编译器）.

Recently, though, I learned about a role model who was right under my nose—my own

mother.


Growing up, I knew she had worked as a secretary before I was born. I knew that she had

joined the WAVES—the Women Accepted for Volunteer Emergency Service branch of the US

Naval Reserve（海军预备队）—during World War Ⅱ. And I knew she’d worked in an office that

was involved with codes. But when she talked about it—rare, because she had been sworn to

secrecy—she described her duties as ordinary, routine. I never questioned it. After all, the

woman I knew was a reserved suburban mom.

Not long ago, a chance conversation with a colleague led me to the book, Code Girls. It

tells the story of the WAVES, who decrypted and encrypted secret messages during the war.

They worked around the clock, knowing that the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers—their

brothers, husbands, fathers—were on the line.

Inspired, I began a journey to explore the mystery of my mother’s service that continues to

this day. I got some of her working records about her unit, OP19. In two years, she was

promoted three times. She was no secretary, and her duties were hardly ordinary.

My mother always encouraged my interest in science and insisted to my father that I go to

college. “You’re going to grow up to be another Madame Curie,” she told me. She was always

pointing at other women. She did not see herself as someone to model on. Neither did I. Now I

see her differently.

6. The author’s mother told a lie about her job because ________.

A. she hated to work in her company

B. she thought her job was just dull

C. she was sworn to keep the secret

D. she thought secretary was better

7. Which of the following words can best describe the author’s mother?

A. Devoted and faithful. B. Ambitious and reserved.

C. Cooperative and sincere. D. Hardworking and skeptical.

8. What did the author’s mother do before she was born?

A. A housewife. B. A secretary.

C. A farmer. D. A computer compiler.

9. What can we learn from the text?

A. The author doubted her mother’s job when she was a child.

B. The author’s mother saw herself as an example to follow.

C. Code Girls’ job is more important than that of the soldiers.

D. Code Girls inspired the author to learn more of her mother.

10. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

A. Code Girls, My Favourite Book B. Mom, My Real Role Model

C. The OP19, A Buried Secret D. WAVES, A Mysterious Organization


C

As medical science develops rapidly with technologies, what is left for the doctor to do?

For medical humanist Dr. Abraham Verghese, the answer is simple: Spend more time

getting to know your patients as people. Take the time to read a poem and other literature. Do

your part to bridge the gap between the two cultures of science and the humanities.

It takes a doctor who knows a patient’s life history to make the best use of these tools,

Verghese said. And that means having insight into human character.

Verghese said machines “have gone beyond human beings in their capacity to care for the

patient,” that is, in diagnosing illnesses and indicating the best treatment.

But doctors can awaken the human spirit, the knowledge of human beings and their

motivations, which can pull together a life picture of a patient and understand them as more than

a collection of symptoms.

Case history: A 64-year-old man admitted to the hospital after repeated falls, pains, and the

loss of two teeth that just fell out, with no apparent cause.

What was wrong? Was it his medicine? Was it alcohol abuse?

The man rapidly improved after being hospitalized. It turned out he had “bachelor scurvy”,

a disease among old men who lives alone, which results from a lack of nutrition.

“He was surviving on no fruits or vegetables, just alcohol and processed meats, I would

guess,” Verghese said. “My point here is that this diagnosis, as clever as it was, also might have

been made much, much earlier had we had a good relationship with this patient and had some

sense of who that person was, as an individual.”

11. What should doctors do according to Verghese?

A. Use machines less frequently.

B. Know more about patients as people.

C. Try to make an early diagnosis of patients.

D. Keep up with the development of technology.

12. What does Verghese think of medical equipment?

A. It needs to be improved greatly.

B. It will replace doctors sooner or later.

C. It may give patients incorrect treatment.

D. It is of great help in diagnosing illnesses.

13. What can we infer about the 64-year-old man mentioned in the text?

A. He lived on his own.

B. He lived a healthy lifestyle.

C. He suffered from a rare disease.

D. He was a regular visitor to the hospital.


14. What does the underlined phrase “bachelor scurvy” probably mean? A. a disease B. a bachelor degree C. a kind of medicine D. a kind of wine

15. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To introduce some medical tools. B. To advise doctors to get to know patients better. C. To describe the development of medical science. D. To show the importance of machines in medical operations.

第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 5 分）

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多

余选项。 Many people have at least a few poor spending habits. These poor habits usually prevent

them from paying off their bank loans and achieving the financial stability that they desire. 16 Track your spending. As they say, the first step is admitting that you have a problem. Often,

people don’t recognize their poor spending habits until they’ve already buried themselves under a mountain of debt. Tracking your spending is the easiest way to see where exactly your money is going every month. 17

Create a budget. After tracking your spending for a month, you can create a simple budget by adding up your total recurring（重复的）expenses, setting aside a certain amount for savings, and splitting up the rest between categories like eating out and entertainment. 18

19 Black Friday is a great example. Every year, people flock to stores to take advantage of sales on items that they’ve never even considered buying before. The reason for this phenomenon is that you buy something without taking the time to consider whether or not you really need it and can afford it. If you aren’t absolutely sure that you need a certain item, wait just a few days before making a purchase. 20

Using the methods listed above is a great way to get started on breaking your bad money habits and improving your financial stability.

A. Cut out impulse spending. B. Use credit cards and personal loans responsibly. C. Some of your bad money habits are years in the making. D. In addition, there are plenty of budgeting apps which you can make use of. E. You’ll likely be surprised to see how much you spend in certain categories. F. Often, you’ll find that you lose interest in it or you’ll completely forget about it. G. Fortunately, there are a few effective ways that can help you avoid wasting money.

They are generally committed only to their own 42 (career) with all satisfactions. But one person used her fame and position to fight for justice for young children. The person was Audrey Hepburn.

Audrey Hepburn was born in 1929 into a wealthy family. 43 , during the Second World War (1939-1945), she and her mother not only 44 (experience) starvation in Holland during the Nazi occupation but lost their home and money. This experience was to remain with her all her life and was to become the 45 (motive) behind her desire to work for others. Many years 46 (late), when she had become a famous actress, Audrey Hepburn explained her commitment in this way. “I’ve known UNICEF（联合国儿童基金会）a long time, ever since the Second World War, 47 they came to the aid of thousands of children like 48 (I). We were starving after five years of German occupation in Holland. Just like the developing world today. We were 49 poor to help ourselves. And that is what UNICEF is all about— 50 (help) people to be independent and giving them the aid to develop. In that way people can

recover and live with dignity.”

and the birds were singing in the trees. The woman felt happy until she saw five boys stand

around a thin and hungry dog. It looked very frightening and the woman felt sorry for it. So, she
