18、friend through my most difficult year in high school.

20、 on.Gambit and I immediately became best friends. My job was to teach basic commands, socialize him, and give him as much affection as possible dining the fragile (脆弱) puppy months. Gambits training was practically effortless; he learned commands very quickly and was always obedient (顺从).Gambit had
21、been in my home for five months when my junior year began. This was an extremely challenging year for me, and it was great to come home to his bright eyes and wagging (摇) tail. Every day I would talk to Gambit about everything on my mind. I knew he wouldnt judge or reveal my secrets. Gambit and I ha
22、d some of the best conversations, and all he did was listen.This July I received the call that it was time for Gambit to return to complete his formal training. My heart sank. I had known he would have to go, but it seemed too soon. It felt like my best friend was moving away. I was at a loss what t

Relieved.CIt is 8:45 a. m. and a line of hungry children eagerly await breakfast outside a classroom. Moments later they burst in, running over to a table covered with cereals, spreads, milk and
27、juice to enjoy a satisfying, healthy breakfast.This is familiar for Cannel McConnell, founder of The Magic Breakfast, a charity that delivers morning meals to children who would otherwise go without.Ms McConnell created her organization 16 years ago after hearing from school staff that they had to f
28、eed their pupils before lessons started, as many were so hungry as to sleep in class.The Magic Breakfast has a simple goal: to remove child hunger in the mornings by 2020. It is an example of one of many organizations using fresh produce to handle food poverty.The charity has 200 partner schools in
29、the capital and another 280 across the rest of England. There are 60 London schools on the waiting list. On average, 49 pupils receive breakfast in each school, meaning the charity helps 9,800 young people in London every day.Ms McConnell says the Magic Breakfast has made a notable impact: “Every mo
30、rning pupils come in, eat breakfast and socialise with one another. In terms of their academic development, they are sharper as the breakfast gives them the energy to get through the day and to learn.”When asked about the obstacle to their goal, McConnell says, “The big thing we need, quite simply,
31、is cash. The consequence (后果) of child hunger is that they will fail at school and we have to deal with fallout. Feeding hungry children so they can learn is no tough task. Breakfast is an ideal solution. As well as cash，we are looking for firms to donate food. Id love for people to support us. And

35、armel McConnell: considerate founder of The Magic BreakfastDLuciano Baietti, a retired school, headmaster from Italy, holds the Guinness record for the most university degrees. The 70-year-old currently has 15 bachelors or masters degrees from various universities across Italy, and is getting ready
36、to get his 16th.Getting more than one college degree is not exactly unheard of, but 15 is apparently quite impressive, since its only been done by one man. Although he spends his days working around his house and garden, like most people his age, at night, Baretti turns into n student again. Every m
37、orning, at 3 a. m., when most of the world is sleeping, he wakes up and studies by the light of his desk lamp. He claims studying helps keep his mind active and that every degree he has obtained has helped broaden his knowledge of the world around him.“Thanks to books, I feel free. After all, the wo
38、rds share the share root,” he says, referring to the Italian words libro (book) and libero (free). “Me claims to have been inspired by the 19th century French essayist Louis-Francois Berlin, whose portrait is also on display in his study, alongside his many framed university degrees, and whom he des
39、cribes as” a man of culture and knowledge.Baietti first made it into the Guinness Book of Records in 2002, after his eighth degree. Then he spent the next 15 years adding seven more bachelors and masters degrees to his collection.“Each time I set myself a new challenge to see how far my body and my
40、brain can go.” At 70-years-old, Baietti thinks he has enough energy for at least one more degree, this time in food science.Probably the most important thing about Baiettis achievement is that he managed to get most of his university degrees while working as headmaster of a secondary school, and vol
41、unteering with Italys Red Cross. The secret was always getting up at 3 in the morning to make sure that his thirst (渴求) for knowledge didnt affect his professional activity and his family life. He spent 3 hours studying every day, and that was apparently all he needed to pass his exams and write his
42、 thesis (论文).32. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Louis - Francois Berlin is on good terms with Baietti.B. Baietti is the first Italian to break a Guinness record twice.C. Nobody but Baietti has ever got more than one college degree.D. Challenging himself opens up a broader
43、 world to Baietti.33. Baietti can be best described as .A. honest and considerateB. optimistic and generousC. determined and hardworkingD. reliable and imaginative34. The key to Baiettis success is .A. the support from his familyB. his eagerness for fameC. his nonstop daily learningD. his unusual br
44、ain and energy35. What lesson can we learn from the story of Baietti?A. Well begun is half done.B. Never too late to learn.C. Take things as they come.D.
