For top students from low-income families, the challenge of applying to colleges is particularly difficult. 1 in 4 deal with all of that — the writing, the studying, the researching and applying — completely on their own. One approach to making this whole process easier? Pair students up with an adviser.
That’s the idea behind CollegePoint, an initiative to help gifted students go to schools that match their intellectual(智力的) ability. When a high school student takes a standardized test—the PSAT, SAT or ACT — and they score in the 90th percentile, and their families make less than $80, 000 a year, they get an email from the program offering them a free adviser. The advisers listen, guide and answer students’ questions.
Connor Rechtzigel, an adviser in Minnesota, sees the importance of his role, for research shows that low-income students are less likely to go to schools as expected because they don’t think they have what it takes to get in and because many don’t even know what schools are out there. He helped high school senior Justice Benjamin, the first in his family to apply to college, think about what his ideal learning experience was. Finally, Justice narrowed in on smaller schools where he could study environmental science and made his final choice:Skidmore College in New York. He felt empowered by the process.
Figuring out how to pay for college is a major part of what CollegePoint advisers do. Nakhle, an adviser in North Carolina, is working with Hensley, an Ohio high school senior who can’t get extra financial help from her family. They spent a lot of time comparing and analyzing her financial-aid award letters, which made her decision much clearer. Finally, the Ohio State University offered an option where she would pay nothing. Staying in-state wasn’t her first choice, but it was the best option for her.
4. What is the second paragraph mainly about?
A. How CollegePoint works.
B. The leader of CollegePoint.
C. Ways to apply for a free adviser.
D. The challenge of choosing colleges.
5. What prevents low-income students from attending proper colleges?
A. Overestimating their abilities.
B. Knowing little about colleges.
C. Lack of enough learning experience.
D. Failure to get support from their families.
6. Why did Hensley finally choose the Ohio State University?
A. She didn’t want to stay far from home.
B. Her favorite major was provided there.
C. She would show her talents to the full.
D. The university met her financial needs.
7. What is the best title for the passage?
A. How to Be a Financial Adviser
B. Steps for Top Students to Select Ideal Colleges
C. Advisers Help Poor Students Apply to Suitable Colleges
D. CollegePoint—a Program Helping Students Score High

Two British teachers have broken the world record for the longest journey in a tuk-tuk after pulling their failing vehicle for 43 miles. Richard Sears and Nick Gough traveled 37, 500 kilometers around the world and passed through 37 countries. They did this to support grassroots education project in Africa, Asia and South AmericA.
The pair, who set off from London, thought their expedition was over when the vehicle started to fail. When the tuk-tuk broke, they were only 43 miles from their destination. They decided to pull it the rest of the way. The tuk-tuk, which weighs 800 kilograms, was pulled in turns by Richard and Nick over three days. On arrival in Chepen, Peru, they discovered a mechanic who specialized in tuk-tuks and managed to fix it.
The pair were back on the road and aiming for their next goal. Along their journey they had to tackle deserts and jungles. They also survived close encounters with elephants in Uganda and Botswana and an accident in Malaysia. The greatest hardship on the tuk-tuk was the mountain ranges lying in their path, including the Alps, the Himalayas and the Andes.
Nick and Richard uncovered some inspirational projects across Africa, Asia and South America. They witnessed firsthand the educational challenges facing these areas today. They joined street children in the slums of Cairo, Khartoum, Kampala, Mumbai and Phnom Penh. They visited Congolese refugees (難民) in camps in Eastern Burundi. They witnessed how education could free sex-workers in Delhi and victims of human trafficking in Nepal.
The pair established The Tuk Tuk Educational Trust, a UK registered charity.
Talking about their motivation, Richard said, “The world’s leaders have made a commitment to achieving universal primary education but, in spite of this pledge (誓言), over 57 million primary-aged children worldwide are still out of school; many more are in school, but still cannot access quality learning opportunities.”
8. Why did the two teachers travel the world?
A. To entertain themselves.
B. To challenge themselves.
C. To create a new world recorD.
D. To support an education project.
9. How far did the two teachers pull the tuk-tuk each day on average?
A. A little more than 8 miles.
B. About 14 miles.
C. 43 miles.
D. 20 miles.
10. What is the third paragraph mainly about?
A. How they realized their next goal.
B. Their exciting experience on the roaD.
C. The beautiful scenery of famous mountains.
D. The difficulties and dangers they faced in the journey.
11. Which of the following best describes the two teachers?
A. Curious and brave.
B. Humorous and generous.
C. Courageous and responsible.
D. Efficient and honest.

Although vaccines are required for entry into school in most places in the United States, the government does allow for exceptions, like religious reasons.
In the last few years, the rates of vaccine-preventable illness have been on the rise. In most cases, these outbreaks began with children who were unvaccinated. To deal with this threat, some schools in New York have been refusing to allow unvaccinated children to attend school. Several parents thought this was unfair and filed lawsuits(起訴). Just recently, though, a court(法庭) ruled in favor of the city schools.
The court made the right decision. Vaccine policy depends not only on the added protection that vaccines provide for those who get shots, but also on the decreased likelihood that anyone will come into contact(接觸) with the disease. This is known as community immunity(群體免疫). It refers to the fact that when enough people are immunized, then there really can’t be an outbreak. And if there can’t be an outbreak, then everyone is protected.
This is important, because there are people who cannot be given immunizations for various reasons. For example, small babies can’t be given all vaccines. In 1995, the chicken pox(水痘) vaccine was introduced in the United States. Over time, more and more children received it. In 2011, a study looked at how the program affected the number of children who died from the disease.
The first thing noted in the paper was that death from chicken pox went down considerably after the vaccine was introduced. From 2001 to 2007, the rates of death remained much lower, with just a few children dying from chicken pox nationally each year.
What’s more, from 2004 to 2007, not one child younger than one year old died in the United States from chicken pox. This is important, because we cannot give the chicken pox vaccine to babies. In other words, all those babies were saved not because we vaccinated them against this illness, but because older children were vaccinated.
Therefore, people who refuse to vaccinate their children aren’t just putting themselves at risk—they’re putting everyone else in danger, too.
12. What did the judges take into consideration?
A. Students’ interest.
B. School leaders’ interest.
C. Several parents’ interest.
D. Unvaccinated kids’ interest.
13. What is needed to prevent disease outbreaks through community immunity?
A. Requiring everyone to be immune.
B. Vaccinating babies as early as possible.
C. Making sure enough people get vaccinated.
D. Separating unvaccinated people from vaccinated.
14. What does the study about the chicken pox vaccine show?
A. The vaccine is safe for every kid.
B. No deaths have been found since 2004.
C. The vaccine has lowered the death rate.
D. The vaccine is more effective among babies.
15. Which of the following would the author agree with?
A. No vaccine, no risk.
B. No vaccine, no school.
C. Vaccination is a personal choice.
D. Vaccine-preventable illness is dropping.

How to Help Others in Your Community(社區(qū))
Helping others in your community is a great way to spread joy to others and get the most out of life. 16

You can choose to redirect gifts. 19 You can invite them to do voluntary work to celebrate your birthday. You can also suggest they donate the money they intend to use to buy gifts for you.
You can stop to help. There are many cases where you can stop to give a helping hand. If you see people on the street struggling to carry all their groceries, stop to help. 20 However, keep in mind that they may not always need help. But never feel discouraged when your kindness is turned down.
A. Usually they are grateful to accept your help.
B. You can choose to donate to important causes.
C. Here are a number of chances you can take advantage of.
D. You can help your neighbors without spending much money.
E. Donate the gifts you receive to poor children in your community.

Located halfway up the Italy’s Apennine Mountain, about 100 miles northeast of Rome, the Hotel Rigopiano has never been easy to reach. But its isolation(隔絕)only adds to its appeal, attracting a great number of tourists.
Snow began to fall across the Apennines in January and lasted for days. From his home in the Rome suburbs, Matrone watched the weather with concern. He and his wife, Cicioni, had planned an overnight getaway to the hotel. But now he wondered whether they should go. After phoning the hotel, they decided to make the trip. By the time they neared the hotel six hours later, they were battling a snowstorm. When they finally arrived, they were both cold and exhausted. They checked into their room and went to bed early.
As they awoke the next day, they discovered that their difficulty had worsened overnight. The cars in the parking lot were invisible. The phone and power lines were down. They were having breakfast when the hotel began to shake. An earthquake with a magnitude(震級)of 5. 7 had struck the mountain. “Get out of here!”Matrone shouted to his wife. They headed quickly to the parking lot, where others were digging their cars. Fifteen minutes after the first earthquake, another quake hit, this one measuring 5. 6.
With a dozen vehicles freed by noon, the guests set off down the driveway. But when they reached the main road, the path was blocked by a six-foot-high wall of snow. Matrone climbed out of his car and investigated it. There was no road in sight, “We’re trapped!” he told his wife. So they had no choice but to make their way back to the hotel.
As it was getting dark, they managed to be back. That was when the snow on the mountain began to slide. They heard the avalanche(雪崩)before they saw it. The avalanche gathered speed and size, grabbing rocks and trees and anything else in its way down the mountain, tearing the hotel from its foundation. When the avalanche came to a stop, those caught inside the hotel were left buried in the icy rocks and ruins.
注意:1. 續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右;
2. 請按如下格式在相應(yīng)位置作答。
When Matrone came to himself, he was stuck in the darkness. ___________________________

8. D 細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)文章第1段中的“They did this to support grassroots education project in Africa, Asia and South AmericA. ”可知, 他們這樣做是為了支持非洲、亞洲和南美洲的基層教育項(xiàng)目。
9. B 細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)文章第2段中的they were only 43 miles from their destination...was pulled in turns by Richard and Nick over three days可知, 他們拖著車三天走了大約43英里, 故平均每天大概走14英里。

Although vaccines are required for entry into school in most places in the United States, the government does allow for exceptions, like religious reasons.
In the last few years, the rates of vaccine-preventable illness have been on the rise. In most cases, these outbreaks began with children who were unvaccinated. To deal with this threat, some schools in New York have been refusing to allow unvaccinated children to attend school. Several parents thought this was unfair and filed lawsuits(起訴). Just recently, though, a court(法庭) ruled in favor of the city schools.
The court made the right decision. Vaccine policy depends not only on the added protection that vaccines provide for those who get shots, but also on the decreased likelihood that anyone will come into contact(接觸) with the disease. This is known as community immunity(群體免疫). It refers to the fact that when enough people are immunized, then there really can’t be an outbreak. And if there can’t be an outbreak, then everyone is protected.
This is important, because there are people who cannot be given immunizations for various reasons. For example, small babies can’t be given all vaccines. In 1995, the chicken pox(水痘) vaccine was introduced in the United States. Over time, more and more children received it. In 2011, a study looked at how the program affected the number of children who died from the disease.
The first thing noted in the paper was that death from chicken pox went down considerably after the vaccine was introduced. From 2001 to 2007, the rates of death remained much lower, with just a few children dying from chicken pox nationally each year.
What’s more, from 2004 to 2007, not one child younger than one year old died in the United States from chicken pox. This is important, because we cannot give the chicken pox vaccine to babies. In other words, all those babies were saved not because we vaccinated them against this illness, but because older children were vaccinated.
Therefore, people who refuse to vaccinate their children aren’t just putting themselves at risk—they’re putting everyone else in danger, too.
12. What did the judges take into consideration?
A. Students’ interest.
B. School leaders’ interest.
C. Several parents’ interest.
D. Unvaccinated kids’ interest.
13. What is needed to prevent disease outbreaks through community immunity?
A. Requiring everyone to be immune.
B. Vaccinating babies as early as possible.
C. Making sure enough people get vaccinated.
D. Separating unvaccinated people from vaccinated.
14. What does the study about the chicken pox vaccine show?
A. The vaccine is safe for every kid.
B. No deaths have been found since 2004.
C. The vaccine has lowered the death rate.
D. The vaccine is more effective among babies.
15. Which of the following would the author agree with?
A. No vaccine, no risk.
B. No vaccine, no school.
C. Vaccination is a personal choice.
D. Vaccine-preventable illness is dropping.
【語篇解讀】本文說明了疫苗接種的重要性。
【答案與解析】
12. A 推斷題。根據(jù)第2段中的a court ruled in favor of the city schools可知, 法庭支持學(xué)校, 而學(xué)校不讓未接種疫苗的孩子入學(xué)是為所有學(xué)生的健康著想。由此可知, 法庭也是考慮到全體學(xué)生的利益才做出裁決的。
13. C 細(xì)節(jié)題。 根據(jù)第3段中的“It refers to the fact that when enough people are immunized, then there really can’t be an outbreak.”可知, 要防止疾病爆發(fā), 就要確保足夠多的人因疫苗接種獲得免疫。
14. C 細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第3段中的death from chicken pox went down considerably和倒數(shù)第2段中的not one child younger than one year old died in the United States from chicken pox可知, 水痘疫苗大大降低了兒童因感染水痘而導(dǎo)致死亡的比率。
15. B 推斷題。根據(jù)第3段中的“The court made the right decision.”和最后一段內(nèi)容可知, 作者認(rèn)為不接種疫苗就不能去學(xué)校。

How to Help Others in Your Community(社區(qū))
Helping others in your community is a great way to spread joy to others and get the most out of life. 16
You can choose to become a volunteer. Volunteering is a great way to help others out in your community.

You can choose to redirect gifts. 19 You can invite them to do voluntary work to celebrate your birthday. You can also suggest they donate the money they intend to use to buy gifts for you.
You can stop to help. There are many cases where you can stop to give a helping hand. If you see people on the street struggling to carry all their groceries, stop to help. 20 However, keep in mind that they may not always need help. But never feel discouraged when your kindness is turned down.
A. Usually they are grateful to accept your help.
B. You can choose to donate to important causes.
C. Here are a number of chances you can take advantage of.
D. You can help your neighbors without spending much money.

Located halfway up the Italy’s Apennine Mountain, about 100 miles northeast of Rome, the Hotel Rigopiano has never been easy to reach. But its isolation(隔絕)only adds to its appeal, attracting a great number of tourists.
Snow began to fall across the Apennines in January and lasted for days. From his home in the Rome suburbs, Matrone watched the weather with concern. He and his wife, Cicioni, had planned an overnight getaway to the hotel. But now he wondered whether they should go. After phoning the hotel, they decided to make the trip. By the time they neared the hotel six hours later, they were battling a snowstorm. When they finally arrived, they were both cold and exhausted. They checked into their room and went to bed early.
As they awoke the next day, they discovered that their difficulty had worsened overnight. The cars in the parking lot were invisible. The phone and power lines were down. They were having breakfast when the hotel began to shake. An earthquake with a magnitude(震級)of 5. 7 had struck the mountain. “Get out of here!”Matrone shouted to his wife. They headed quickly to the parking lot, where others were digging their cars. Fifteen minutes after the first earthquake, another quake hit, this one measuring 5. 6.
With a dozen vehicles freed by noon, the guests set off down the driveway. But when they reached the main road, the path was blocked by a six-foot-high wall of snow. Matrone climbed out of his car and investigated it. There was no road in sight, “We’re trapped!” he told his wife. So they had no choice but to make their way back to the hotel.
As it was getting dark, they managed to be back. That was when the snow on the mountain began to slide. They heard the avalanche(雪崩)before they saw it. The avalanche gathered speed and size, grabbing rocks and trees and anything else in its way down the mountain, tearing the hotel from its foundation. When the avalanche came to a stop, those caught inside the hotel were left buried in the icy rocks and ruins.
注意:1. 續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右;
2. 請按如下格式在相應(yīng)位置作答。

When Matrone came to himself, he was stuck in the darkness. Lying on his stomach, he realized with horror that he was under something heavy and couldn’t move at all. “Cicioni! Cicioni!” he called, but there was no response. He could hear nothing of what was happening at the surface. The whole world was dead still. What he had to face was a terrible reality—they were buried alive. Despair washed over him. He asked himself again and again, “Who is going to save us?”
It was not until the next morning that the rescuers finally arrived. Without any hesitation they got down to detecting the remains of the hotel and they were delighted to discover there was sign of life beneath. With great efforts they removed the thick snow and began cutting the roof. Then they carefully lowered themselves through the hole they’d made. Suddenly, they heard someone crying for help in a weak voice. It was Matrone. Later all the survivors were rescued including Matrone’s wife. The couple felt really lucky to be still alive!
