12、usin and I traveled uptown in Manhattan to Radio City Music Hall to purchase tickets for a movie. After buying the tickets, we realized we didnt have enough money for our train ride home. We stood in the station, asking strangers for help with our fares.That day made me question what forces a person
13、 to assist a stranger. A story told by my teacher provides the basic framework for being a good neighbor to others. In the story, the teacher was asked by one of the classmates, “Who is my neighbor?”As a response to this question, the teacher told the story of a man who was robbed, beaten and left f
14、or dead during travel. Even when a priest(牧师) crossed the street in an effort to avoid helping this man, a good Samaritan saw his condition and felt sympathy for him. He lifted the man onto his donkey and brought him to a restaurant nearby where he covered all expenses. When the teacher finished tel
15、ling the story, he asked, “Who was a neighbor to the man?” The student replied, “The one who had mercy on him.” Then the teacher said, “Go and do likewise.”Over 40 years have passed since my cousin and I asked strangers for help with our train fares home, yet the lesson we learned that day remains j
16、ust as strong. I learned to become a good Samaritan.Those who spared us some change that day acted as our neighbors. And as I move forward in life, I look back to that day when I see others in need as a reminder to be a good neighbor. As Martin Luther King, Jr. once said, “The time is always right t
17、o do what is right.”24. What did the author do when finding he had no money for the train ride home?A. He robbed strangers. B. He begged for money.C. He sold the tickets. D.

A kind of language spoken by people living in Samaria.B. A traveler who travels a long way, exhausted and hungry.C. A neighbor who likes to trav
19、el.D. A person who offers to help others, especially strangers in need.27. What can we infer from the words of Martin Luther King, Jr?A. Dont hesitate in doing what is right.B. It is not always easy to do what is right.C. It is not hard for one to do right even if its small.CPlastic can be found alm
20、ost in everything. That is included in toys, cars and computers, etc. Most plastic canand should be recycled. However, many types of plastic are often thrown away. Tons of the plastic rubbish ends up in the ocean every year. It gets there mainly from litter on land and overflowing sewers (下水道).The r
21、est is thrown directly into the seas. Its reported that about 8 million tons of plastic flows into the seas each year. Thats equal to a garbage truck full of plastic every minute. Plastic couldnt be fully broken down, so once it reaches the ocean, it will float on the sea or sink into the bottom and
22、 then it may kill the wildlife.In response to this problem, the United Nations (the U.N.) hosted its first-ever Ocean Conference. At the conference, the UNs 193 member nations reached an agreement. They agreed to try their best to protect the ocean from pollution. The sea has a special relationship
23、with all of us in the world, but the relationship is under threat now, said Antonio Guterres, the secretary-general of the UN.Countries in Asia have agreed to take some measures. The promise from China, Thailand, and Indonesia is hopeful. They produce up to 60% of all marine plastic wastebecause of
24、the leakage (泄露) from underdeveloped garbage-collection facilities.Good news is that some scientists and companies worldwide are developing ways to keep plastic out of the ocean. They are trying to remove it and recycle it. For example, Dell, a computer company, is creating laptop packaging (包装) fro
25、m recycled plastic rubbish. Dell predicts that the project will prevent 16,000 pounds of plastic from entering the ocean. “We hope to encourage more companies to do something for the growing environmental issue, Carly Tatum says, who is a Dell spokeswoman. However, environmentalists are not so optim
26、istic. They warn that there is no quick way to prevent plastic pollution. Maybe the real solution is that every country in the world should make stronger laws on the plastic pollution. 28.What can we know from the first paragraph?A. Everything contains plastic. B. Most plastic has been cycled.C. The
27、re isnt much plastic in the seas. D. Plastic has threatened marine life.29. What do the underlined words “ this problem” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. The ocean is overdeveloped. B.
