A Shelter for the Homeless
Last summer I was a volunteer (志愿者)
at a shelter for the homeless, a place for homeless people to
sleep at night. I wasn’t working that summer and was 36 only
two classes in summer school, so I had some 37 time.
Three nights a week, I 38 in the kitchen of the shelter along
with four other volunteers. We planned and 39 for 45 people
hot meals 40 vegetables, chicken, fish and fruit. The homeless
people 41 this good food because many of them usually didn’t
eat well.
I 42 this volunteer work, making 43 with the four volunteers
in the kitchen. One was a very nice elderly housewife, one a
movie actor, another a young teacher, and the other a college
student, 44 me.
I talked to a lot of the homeless people at the shelter. Their
life stories 45 me with sympathy (同情).
Some of them had 46 with alcohol (酒)
or drugs while others only had bad 47 . One woman worked for
almost 30 years for a small company, and 48 she lost her job.
She looked for a 49 job, but couldn’t find one, for she was
too 50 . She could do nothing but sell her furniture — sofas,
chairs, and tables 51 she could pay for her food. The woman
52 on job hunting, but she 53 couldn’t find one. She had no
money for her 54 and had to sleep in her car. Then she had to
sell her car. Alone, 55 , and homeless, she finally came to

Sleep Struggle
————————————————————————————————————————DR.
MARJORIE SEIDENFELD ANSWERS YOUR HEALTH QUESTIONS
———————————————————————————————————————
I have such a terrible time falling asleep every night that I’m
always tired and it’s affecting
影响my
schoolwork. What should I do?
—Mindy in Nevada
——————————————————————————————————————One
in every five young people has a sleep problem, so you’re not
alone. Getting enough sleep has become as important as eating
vegetables and exercising regularly. It’s very important for
your body.
Most young people only get seven hours of sleep each night, when
they actually need nine hours. And making up for lost sleep
during the week by sleeping in on weekends doesn’t really work.
In fact, sleeping late on weekends may actually do you more harm
than good, if you have sleep problems.
What happens if you don’t get enough sleep? If your sleep
problem continues for a few nights, you could suffer serious
problems. Lack of sleep can affect learning and memory. Worse,
if your sleep difficulties last a long time, that could lead to
anxiety or depression
(抑郁) .
Therefore, you’ve got to have some healthy sleep habits. Below
are some suggestions:
●GO
TO BED AT THE SAME TIME—including weekends, if possible.
●WAKE
UP AROUND THE SAME TIME EVERY MORNING When you sleep late just
one morning during the week, it may disturb your body clock.
This will make it hard for you to sleep that night.
●DO
SOMETHING RELAXING before going to bed.
●EXERCISE
DURING THE DAY. Don’t exercise right before going to bed.
●AVOID
DRINKING ALCOHOL. Alcohol makes you excited. This prevents you
from falling asleep or wakes you up during the night.
●DON’T
SMOKE. Smoking is always bad for the body. Smoking before
bedtime keeps you awake.
If trying these tips over a couple of weeks does not help you,
speak to your doctor. Do not take any sleeping pills without
first asking your doctor. Many have strong side effects.
60. According to the passage, if you have sleep problems for a
few nights, you could be ________.
A. lonely B. serious C. forgetful
D. depressed
61. The passage suggests that people with sleep problems
should ________.
A. eat vegetables and exercise regularly
B. make up for lost sleep on weekends
C. follow a fixed timetable for sleep
D. sleep seven hours every day
62. We can learn from the suggestions that ________.
A. getting up earlier one morning makes it easier to fall asleep
that night
B. listening to soft music before going to bed may help you fall
asleep
C. smokers and those who drink alcohol usually have sleep
problems
D. exercising in the evening will help you get to sleep
63. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. Sleep problems are serious among young people.
B. Sleeping late on weekends can make up for lost sleep.
C. Your eating habits will be broken due to lack of sleep.
D. You’ll no longer have your sleep problem if you try the tips.

Mountain lions live in mountainous areas of the western United
States. Lately, however, people have reported seeing them in
quiet neighborhoods all across the country! Usually considered
shy and seldom seen, these lions are becoming more
noticeable.(被看见)
In addition, the lions appear to be moving east. They were even
reported in the suburbs
(郊区)
of Boston, Philadelphia, and Chicago.
It seems certain that these “kings of the mountains” are moving.
Why? Scientists are not sure. Some think that as the mountain
lion population increases in the west, younger wild cats are
leaving the area. These cats are searching for new homes and new
places for food.
“The
young males are looking for new homes,” says Lynn Sadler, who is
the director of the Mountain Lion Foundation in Sacramento,
Calif. “People tend to create too many barriers
(障碍),
such as buildings, fences, roads, and noise. As the mountain
lions seek new places and food and water sources
(水源)
, these barriers get in their way.”
The sightings have made people increasingly watchful. Sometimes
the “mountain lions” that people report seeing turn out to be
large dogs or even house cats. But at least a few of the
meetings have been real. The building of new roads, the growing
of suburbs and the growing popularity of outdoor activities are
all increasing the chances that people in various parts of the
country may meet up with a mountain lion.
Because many people are concerned about
(担心)the
reappearance of the American lion, an expert outlined(概述)
some ways they can avoid attracting the wild cats: Never leave
pets or pet food outside; properly care for farm animals; and
plan public land use to enable the lions to move safely from one
place to another.
“To
be fair,” says the expert, “mountain lions are trying to regain
their homes. They were here first. Now we need to find ways we
can live together.”
64. Mountain lions are moving probably because ________ .
A. the suburbs of big cities are peaceful and quiet
B. more roads are being built into the mountains
C. the number of the lions increases in the west
D. young lions are seeking new partners
65. According to the passage, it is clear that ________.
A. the reported sightings of mountain lions have not been proved
B. people walking in the country may come across a lion
C. fences have been built to protect the lions
D. mountain lions prefer populated areas
66. To avoid attracting mountain lions, people are
advised ________.
A. to build more roads for the lions to move safely
B. to keep a close watch on their farm animals
C. not to stay outdoors D. not to raise pets
67. Which is the best title for the passage?
A. Mountain Lions in Unlikely Places
B. Measures Taken to Avoid Lions
C. Number of Sightings Going Up
D. Mountain Lions Moving West

Letter to Editor of TV Weekly
Dear Sir/Madam,
I read Alison Burnham’s review
(评论)of
When we were 12, and I do not agree with her. I thought the
programme was wonderful — I found the old news pictures really
interesting — they helped to bring to life the stories the
people were telling.
The programme reminds me of many things from my own childhood.
For example, one day when I was about five, I was going to
school on the bus by myself (this was the late 1960s). My mother
had given me exactly the right money for a return ticket. I held
out my hand with the money in it — one big coin on top of one
little coin. The bus conductor took the big top coin only and
she gave me a ticket, but it was a pink one for a single
journey. I needed a white one for a return journey, but I was
too frightened to say anything. When school finished for the
day, I couldn’t catch the bus home — I had to walk. As a
grown-up, whenever I’ve been in a situation where I need to say
something or take some action, this early memory of my bus ride
comes back to me, and I’m able to take control of the situation.
I would like to say to the director, Bret Chrysler, carry on
making this kind of programme. Too much TV these days is quiz
shows and so called “reality programmes”. I appreciate the human
story that can make me laugh and cry.
Yours faithfully,
Chris Daniels
68. What is Chris Daniels’ purpose of writing this letter?
A. To persuade Bret Chrysler to turn away from quiz shows.
B. To entertain other readers with old news pictures.
C. To express his appreciation of the programme.
D. To have his story told on the programme.
69. Chris Daniels tells the story about the bus ticket
to ________.
A. describe how painful his early experience was
B. draw a direct response from Alison Burnham
C. show how the programme made him think
D. teach the readers of TV Weekly a lesson
70. According to the passage, Chris Daniels had to walk home
because ________.
A. he hadn’t got a return ticket
B. he had lost his bus ticket
C. he didn’t like big crowds
D. he missed the bus home
