18、ion 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 kil
19、ograms, 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 a
20、lso 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, As
21、ia 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 (难民) in camps in Eastern Burundi. They witnessed how education could free s
22、ex-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 worlds leaders have made a commitment to achieving universal primary education but, in spite of this pledge (
23、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.

Humorous and generous.C. Courageous and responsible.D. Efficient and honest.D Although vaccines are required for entry into
26、 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, so
27、me schools in New York have been refusing to allow unvaccinated children to attend school. Several parents thought this was unfair and filed lawsuits(起诉). 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
28、added protection that vaccines provide for those who get shots, but also on the decreased likelihood that anyone will come into contact(接触) with the disease. This is known as community immunity(群体免疫). It refers to the fact that when enough people are immunized, then there really cant be an outbreak.
29、 And if there cant 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 cant be given all vaccines. In 1995, the chicken pox(水痘) vaccine was introduced in the United States. Over time,
30、 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
31、 remained much lower, with just a few children dying from chicken pox nationally each year. Whats 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,
32、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 arent just putting themselves at risktheyre putting everyone else in danger, too.12. What did the judges take into con
33、sideration? 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 peo
34、ple 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.
35、 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.第二节 (共5小题;每小题2. 5分, 满分12. 5分)阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。How to Help Others in Your Community(社区) Helping
