二、拓展提升
I.阅读理解
A
My family, my wife, Joan, our two teenagers Hannah and Joseph, and I live in Atlanta with our two
dogs.
Ten years ago, we moved into our dream house, a very big three-story home. It was a beautiful
place, but as our children grew up, our sense of togetherness began to disappear slowly. In the big house,
we sometimes seemed to be strangers to each other.
One day when Hannah was 14, she became upset about the difference between the world’s haves and
the have-nots. She expected us to be “a family that makes a difference in the world, even if it’s a small
difference”. Joan asked her, “What are you willing to sacrifice? Your house? Your room? ” Hannah said
yes to both. After talking it over as a family, we decided to sell our house and move to one that was half its
size and price and donate the difference to those in need.
After a lot of research, we chose the Hunger Project, a US-based organization. It works with
villagers in Africa, Asia and South America and helps them fight against poverty . Our money went to pay
for building two centers. Each has a meeting place, a bank and a health clinic. Together, the centers would
serve more than 20 villages in eastern Ghana. We also traveled to meet the villagers and were blown away
by their hard work and warmth.
To be honest, we were a little worried at first. Would we regard the new home as being too small for
us? Or would we think we had given up too much? Two years later, I can tell you: It’s the best move we
have ever made. While we worked together on our family project, we became much closer. As Hannah said
the other day, “We learned how to really trust each other. ”

“Volunteering makes you look at the world differently. You see how little things can change a person’s
life for the better, which makes everyone a better person,” Mason, a volunteer said.
National Volunteer Week started in 1974 and is held every April. It is a time to thank volunteers for
their achievements. It is also a perfect opportunity to encourage others to take their first step towards
becoming a volunteer. Making the decision to take the first step can be the biggest problem, because they
often wonder if they will be able to meet the organisation’s expectations. Some people fear not knowing
anyone else in the group. Not having enough time also prevents some from sharing their abilities.
The following tips can help if you have some of these worries:
★ Start out slowly. Don’t add too much pressure. Even a few hours a month can make a big difference
in someone’s life.
★ Choose an organisation with the same interest and common values.
★Work with a veteran volunteer. He volunteered a lot. He can help you increase the confidence and
completely understand the organisation’s expectations.
更多资料添加微信号：hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺：乐知课堂★ Invite a friend or family member to serve. It is a good experience to volunteer with them.
★ Finally, it is most important to enjoy the volunteer experience and to remember that not all
volunteer experiences are perfect. If one experience doesn’t work, don’t give up and you’ll surely find the
right opportunity.
Spend some time on volunteer work and you will see great changes in people’s lives. As Mason
discovered during his volunteer experience, “Little things can change a person’s life.”
5. Volunteering can help .
A. make a decision B. see the world clearly
C. thank other people D. make a person’s life better
6. What could be the reason for stopping people taking the first step?
A. They don’t have enough time.
B. They are prevented by their families.
C. They fear that their abilities are shared.
D. They don’t expect to become volunteers.

III.七选五
Forgiveness
To forgive is a virtue, but no one has ever said it is easy. When someone has deeply hurt you, it can be
extremely difficult to let go of your hate. However, forgiveness is possible, and it can be surprisingly
beneficial to your physical and mental health. People who forgive show less sadness, anger and stress and
more hopefulness, according to a recent research.
__1__ Try the following steps：Calm yourself. __2__ You can take a couple of breaths and think of
something that gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, or someone you love.
Don't wait for an apology. Many times the person who hurts you does not intend to apologize. He may
have wanted to hurt you or just doesn't see things the same way. __3__ Keep in mind that forgiveness does
not necessarily mean becoming friends again with the person who upsets you.
Take the control away from your offender (冒犯者). Rethinking about your hurt gives power to the
person who caused you pain. Instead of focusing on your wounded feelings，learn to look for the love,
beauty and kindness around you.
__4__ If you understand your offender, you may realize that he or she was acting out of unawareness,
fear, and even love. You may want to write a letter to yourself from your offender's point of view.
Don't forget to forgive yourself. __5__ But it can rob you of your selfconfidence if you don't do it.
A．Why should you forgive?
B．How should you start to forgive?
C．Recognize the benefits of forgiveness.
D．Try to see things from your offender's angle.
E．For some people, forgiving themselves is the biggest challenge.
F．To make your anger die away, try a simple stressmanagement technique.
G．If you wait for people to apologize，you could be waiting an awfully long time.
