第二部分 阅读理解（满分40分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

Many kids help out around the house with chores such as emptying the dishwasher, putting laundry

away, and taking out the trash. In exchange, some kids get allowances or other rewards such as extra computer time.

But some people do not think that kids should get rewards for doing chores. Susie Walton, a parenting educator

and family coach, believes that by rewarding kids, parents are sending a message that work isn’t worth doing unless you

get something in return. ’’Running any kind of household is a team effort, Susie said. "A home is a living space for

everyone in the family. It’s important for kids to see that we all have responsibilities in the house, and that families

decide together how they want their home to look, and how they are going to keep it looking like everyone wants it to

look.”

Other people believe that getting a cash allowance or other rewards motivates kids to do chores, and it also teaches

them real world lessons about how we need to work to earn money. There are also new applications that give kids points

and digital gifts that can be redeemed (

兑取

) either online or in the real world. With the ChoreMonster app, kids earn

digital points by completing chores that they can turn in for real-life rewards such as extra Xbox time or a trip to the

mall. “Our goal is to encourage kids to earn rewards,’’ says Chris Bergman, founder of ChoreMonster. “Kids need

positive reinforcement to help motivate them."

What do you think? Should kids be rewarded for doing chores? Or should kids help out around their homes

without getting anything in return?

There’s a song by the great Jamaican singer Bob Marley called

So Much Trouble In The World

.

Marley understood that part of the reason why there are so many problems in the world is the lack of tolerance between

people. The UN understands this too—that’s why it made Nov 16 “International Day for Tolerance”.

But first of all, what is tolerance? French philosopher Voltaire (1694—1778) can give us some help. According to

him, tolerance “is the consequence of humanity. We are all formed of frailty (

脆弱

) and error; let us pardon each other’s

folly—that is the first law of nature.”

Nobody’s perfect. When we’re tempted to criticize another person, we should perhaps remember our own

imperfections first.

Very often, people don’t realize that they’re intolerant. This is because intolerance has a lot to do with ignorance.

For example, the UN’s campaign is in part about the treatment of females by males. But often, the behavior of men

toward women is intolerant because men don’t put themselves in the shoes of women.

It’s worth thinking a little about the words “tolerance” and “intolerance”. Are they the best words to describe the

evils of which we’re speaking here? To agree to be “tolerant” of someone isn’t necessarily a very respectful thing. When

someone is tolerated, it implies that there’s something wrong with them.

But it seems wrong that people should agree to “tolerate” people with black skin, for example. And should women

think they have received the respect they are due when men agree to “tolerate” them?

Still, what Voltaire said stands: We humans are not perfect and this weakness is something that we all share. That’s

the reason we should be tolerant.

It’s a little like generosity. We can give things to another person, and we can also give our forgiveness. Bob Marley

understood this. In the song mentioned above, he advised: “Write your love on a rock so it stays for eternity; write your

hate in the sand so the waves will wash it away.”

1

、

According to Voltaire, tolerance is ________.

A

．

being willing to express your love to others

B

．

trying to overcome your imperfections

C

．

giving a hand to vulnerable groups (

弱势群体

)

D

．

accepting each other’s weaknesses

2

、

Why are people usually unaware of their intolerance, according to the article?

A

．

They are used to finding faults.

B

．

They consider tolerance a kind of frailty.

C

．

They don’t see things from the angle of others.

D

．

They are intolerant of themselves too.

3

、

In what sense is “tolerance” similar to “generosity”?

A

．

Humans are advised to treat others better.

B

．

Humans learned to find faults in others.

C

．

Humans need to give something to others.

Hi, my name is Ethan King. I’m 14 years old and I love the game of soccer. In the summer of 2009, I went

24．（8分）

to northern Mozambique(Africa) with my dad to help repair water wells(

井

)in local villages. I took my soccer ball along.

I thought I might be able to play with the local kids. When we arrived at the village of Ntette, I threw out my ball and

soon, 50 kids were playing .Many of these kids had never had the chance to enjoy playing soccer with a real ball. For me,

it’s no big deal to play soccer with a real ball. I do it all the time.

I’ve discovered that many kids in poor countries want to play soccer, but they can’t because they don’t have a ball.

I have several soccer balls in my house. I thought that these kids would enjoy this soccer ball far more than me. So, I

gave my ball to them.

As we prepared to leave, one of the boys brought the soccer ball back to me. I said to him, “No, this is yours. I gave

it to you.” He laughed and cheered! I loved seeing that they had a real ball to play with.

Every kid who loves the game of soccer deserves(

值得

)to play. Every kid who loves the game of soccer deserves his

or her own ball. And that’s why I started Charity Ball in 2010. It provides new soccer balls for kids in poor communities

around the world.

My dream of working in a flower shop had its roots in my grandmother's garden, always in bloom,

where I made bunches with whatever I could get my hands on. However, I wasn't prepared for the people. Their stories

impressed me long after I locked up for the night.

I always enjoyed reading the messages that went along with each bunch. Most were what you would expect, plenty

of “I Love You” and “Get Well Soon.” We got “Happy Birthday, ” “Happy Anniversary” and “Thinking of You”

requests that phone messages were written in shorthand: H.B

．

, H.A

．

, T.O.Y.

I would laugh at messages that seemed too sugary or boring, and it disheartened me when customers asked what

their sympathy card should say. But I also understood that finding the right words can be a monumental task and that

sometimes those words just happen to be the same ones everyone else is using.

I have sold flowers to single men and women; to color-blind fathers shopping with their precocious daughters, to

new parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles, to engaged 20-somethings and couples celebrating 50 years. I've given

flowers to homeless men who have in turn given them to pretty girls in summer dresses. People buy flowers when

they’re in love, in trouble, drunk, devastated, excited and sometimes for no obvious reason.

I took photos of card messages and told my favorite shop stories to co-workers, family and friends, but still so much

has gotten away. Precious moments made all the more precious by the fact that they have already come and gone. Now I

gauge months by what's in season: sunflowers in July, dahlias

（大丽花）

in August, roses and maple in October, pine in

December, hyacinth

（风信子）

in March.

A favorite of mine is tulip magnolia

（紫玉兰）

（花蕾）
