Ghaliya works for a national newspaper in Indonesia. One day a garbage collector came to her house in Jakarta, the Indonesian capital. The man asked if she had an old mobile phone his children could use to get on the Internet. It does not matter if it is an ugly one, as long as my children can use it for learning at home," he said. Then Ghaliya thought there must be many people who need second-hand mobile phones.
Shortly after the pandemic hit Jakarta, she and 11 other journalists organized a group to provide food and money for needy people. They started hearing from parents who wanted their children to study online but lacked a way to connect to the Internet. Thinking of her meeting with the garbage collector, Ghaliya and her group decided to offer mobile phones to poor students.
Many of these children were not able to do face-to-face learning when the new school year started in July. When the journalists announced their campaign through social media, the reaction was overwhelming. Many people donated second-hand phones, while others gave cash donations.
By the end of November, the journalists had collected more than 200 mobile phones and donations of more than $35,000. They used the money to buy more phones. They also paid for Internet use for those needing it. Currently, nearly 300 phones have been given to students in and around Jakarta as well as to distant areas like Papua, the country's most eastern province.
Helping students take part in online schooling brings happiness to Ghaliya and her group friends. “We really hope the mobile phones can be used as much as they can during the pandemic," she said.
An 11-year-old boy sometimes sent his homework late because he had to wait for his father to return from work in order to get back online. For the first time in his life, Maghribi was falling behind in his studies. He also had to take care of his sick mother, which made him pressured. But a big smile appeared on his face when he received a mobile phone sent by Ghaliy’s group.“I will use the phone to do online study every day,“ Maghribi said excitedly.
【1】How did Ghaliya come up with the idea of offering mobile phones?
A.By attracting a child to study online.
B.By buying a mobile phone for a child.
C.By coming across a garbage collector.
D.By providing supplies for poor students.
【2】Which words can best describe Ghaliya?
A.Kind and grateful. B.Humorous and patient.
C.Selfish but enthusiastic. D.Warm-hearted and considerate.
【3】What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A.Maghribi was grateful to Ghaliya's group.
B.Maghribi was one of Ghaliya's relatives.
C.Maghribi's father was sick and out of work.
D.Maghribi did well in his studies all the time.
【4】What is mainly conveyed in the passage?
A.Where there is a will, there is a way.
B.Education is the key to success.
C.Time is more precious than money.
D.Love brings hope to the needy.

For the first time, a British group, PDSA, gave its Gold Medal to a rat named Magawa for its work searching out unexploded landmines (地雷)in Cambodia.
Magawa was born in Tanzania, but is now based in the Cambodian city of Siem Reap. He has discovered 39 landmines and 28 pieces of unexploded ones, and helped clear more than 1.5 million square feet of land over the past four years.
Over 5 million landmines have been laid in Cambodia during the civil war in the 1980s and 1990s. In Cambodia, over 19,000 people have been killed by landmines. Another 51,000 have been injured.
Magawa is part of the “Hero Rat" project, which works across South East Asia and Africa, training rats to save lives by detecting landmines. Magawa started its training at the age of 10 weeks.
He was trained to detect TNT, the chemical compound within explosives(炸药).The ability to sniff (嗅) out TNT makes him much faster than any person in searching for land mines.
According to Christophe Cox, co — founder and CEO of APPO, a charity that trains the rats, the creatures can screen an area of 200 square meters in half an hour. "We really trust our rats. Very often after clearing a minefield, our teams will play a game of soccer on the cleared field to assure the quality of our work. So far our trainers have never had any accidents with rats because their size and weight permits them to walk across mine fields. They also work much faster than people.
Described as friendly and hardworking by Malen, a Belgian trainer, Magawa has a work-life balance that is likely the envy of many a human. When he is not in the minefield, the 2-foot-long rat likes snacking on bananas, peanuts and watermelons, and taking a spin on the running wheel.
【1】What is the purpose of the “Hero Rat" project?
A.To show honour to the brave rats.
B.To save lives by detecting landmines.
C.To analyze the chemicals in the landmines.
D.To help people get rid of poverty in Africa.
【2】Why is playing soccer on the cleared field mentioned in Paragraph 6?
A.To show their trust in their rats.
B.To show their life after work.
C.To introduce a hobby of his group.
D.To find a way to celebrate success.
【3】What can we infer about Magawa?
A.He is trained at a Belgium training base.
B.He takes no risk of setting off landmines.
C.He often searches for food when he is at work.
D.He brings attention to the problem of landmines.
【4】What is the main idea of the passage?
A.Sufferings caused by landmines. B.Hero Rat project set up to train rats.
C.A rat awarded for life-saving work. D.Good ways to deal with landmines.

How often do you have a conversation with someone, and think you are paying attention to him or her, only to realize shortly afterwards that you can't remember what he said? Or, perhaps you get distracted while he is speaking and miss the message that he is trying to deliver. In today's busy world, modern life is full of distractions: TVs, radios, traffic noises, telephones, laptops and so on, which can make it difficult to listen with our full attention.
But how can we listen more effectively? Jon kabat---zinn, professor at the University of Massachusetts Medical School, put forward the idea of mindful listening. He said mindfulness means paying attention in a particular way, with a purpose, at the present moment and non-judgmentally.
When we listen mindfully, we can be aware of some barriers but still remain open to the speaker's ideas and messages. Mindfulness encourages us to be aware of the present moment, let go of distractions and ignore physical and emotional reactions to what people say to us.
But how can we apply mindful listening to our life? Jon Kabat-Zinn describes three key elements of mindful listening that we can use to improve our listening skills.
First of all, be present. When we listen mindfully, our focus should be on the person we are listening to without distractions. Then develop empathy. We often see the world through our own experiences. When we're empathetic, we can understand a situation from someone else's point of view. At last, listen to our own “cues”. Our cues are the thoughts, feelings and physical reactions that we have when we feel anxious or angry, and they can block out ideas and perspectives that we're uncomfortable with. Mindful listening can help us to be more aware of our cues, and allow us to choose not to let them block communication.
The rule is straightforward: simply “Listen”! Listen carefully and attentively. Pay full attention to the other person, and don't let other thoughts, like what we are going to say next, distract us.
【1】What's the function of the first paragraph?
A.To introduce the topic. B.To make a conclusion.
C.To criticize the distractions. D.To describe daily situations.
【2】What is one of the advantages of mindful listening?
A.Making a judgment correctly. B.Sharing messages with the speaker.
C.Stopping people's running thoughts. D.Making sure of feeling understood.
【3】What does the underlined word "empathy" in paragraph 5 refer to?
A.The feeling of trusting others. B.The ability to understand others.
C.The attitude of caring about others. D.The behavior of listening to others.
【4】What can be the best title for the passage?
A.Applications of Mindful Listening.
B.Key Elements of Mindful Listening.
C.A Research on Mindful Listening.
D.An Introduction of Mindful Listening.

For students of all ages, final exams can cause anxiety. The key to easing that anxiety is to plan ahead and to use proper learning techniques in the weeks ahead of the exams. 【1】
Underline key terms and concepts in notes and textbooks and then consider putting them into thinking maps. 【2】 But the practice of writing the information will help you remember them.
【3】 Studying in a small group can allow the members to compare notes and share learning strategies. And quizzing each other can be a fun way to cover course information. Belonging to a study group will also help you to get explanations of concepts that you do not understand.
Study independently the night before the exam. 【4】 By preparing for the exam weeks in advance, the final night should be devoted to going over the learning tips and other notes. It should be a time of refreshing your mind, not trying to understand information.
