26、e been better: She got to working the overnight shift at the Harvard Square Homeless Shelter.That might seem an extraordinary act of selflessness for someone turning 20. But theres increasing evidence that commitment to community service is becoming much more ordinary to todays young adults. “Young
27、adults are doing more volunteer service than in any point in history, said Scott Seider, an assistant professor of education at Boston University who studies the civic development of young adults.At Harvard, the Winthrop Street Homeless Shelter is one of 86 social service programs associated with th
28、e Phillips Brooks House Association, which is a student-run nonprofit organization. Students can work with deaf children, bring pets to nursing homes, and prepare Chinese students to become US citizens, and so on.Volunteerism develops well outside of colleges, too. Applications to AmeriCorps have ri
29、sen to a very high level, jumping from 91,399 in 2008 to 258,829 in 2010. City Year, which puts young people in high-poverty schools as tutors and mentors for at-risk students, has had a 140 percent increase in applications since its 2007-2008 service year. Citizen Schools, which uses volunteers to
30、work with students in middle schools, has had a 28 percent jump in applicants between 2008 and 2009.“Most of my friends know its their duty to give back before they settle down, said Samantha Wolf, a 23-year-old Boston University graduate serving with City Year in a Mattapan school.City Year corps m
31、ember Antonio Gutierrez, 22, graduated last year from Union College in Schenectady, N.Y., and is applying for admission to law schools, but this year he is tutoring and mentoring students at the Blackstone Elementary School in the South End.“I grew up in similar circumstances, said Gutierrez, who sa
32、id he was a weak student until enrichment programs changed his academic trajectory (轨迹). Raised by a single mother in low-income housing across the street from City Years South End Headquarters, he used to watch the red-jacketed corps members come and go, and decided to become one someday.51.We lear

College students learn to give back D. The real life of young adults todayBThere are many things that go into making a succ
36、essful school, and success can be measured in many ways. Often, the teachers are praised for a schools success and blamed for its failure. Yet, in order for a school to be effective, it must be a place where teaching and learning can easily take place, and that requires the hard work of more than ju
37、st educators. Students must take learning into their own hands and feel as if what they are doing is as important as it actually is. This can only be done with the cooperation of every adult that is involved in the students life. Some of these individuals often go unnoticed, yet the role they play i
38、n the students lives is immeasurable.Administrative assistants welcome students at the beginning of the day and answer a large number of questions. When an assistant remembers a students name or even something special about that student, it communicates to him that he is cared for. The assistant can
39、 also give that extra encouragement for a student to make better choices, especially when they are visiting the principals office. Cafeteria workers have a short period of time to interact with students, but can make a big difference as well. Beyond meeting nutritional needs, cafeteria workers may a
40、lso on occasion meet the emotional needs of the students they serve. Students benefit from positive interaction with adults, and cafeteria workers may give that extra bit of encouragement that a child needs.Custodians (管理人员) are often underappreciated for all that they give to schools. They have to
41、be knowledgeable about everything from cleaning to fixing the most intricate (复杂的) tools. They get to school early in the morning before teachers arrive and lock up late at night after the last student has left from the after-school event. They also make sure teachers are equipped with the necessary
42、 items and prepare the rooms so that they are ready for learning. A great custodian also gives that kind word or extra smile to that student who needs it most.55.If an assistant remembers a students name, the student will feel that .A. he is cared for B. he is specialC. he has done something wrong D
43、. he has made progress in study56.Which of the following is TRUE about cafeteria workers?A. Its enough for them to cook for the students.B. Its hard for them to interact with the students.C.

45、oned in the text?A. Disappointed. B. Appreciative.C. Dissatisfied. D. Doubtful. CSmart home applications can share all kinds of helpful information with homeowners. There appears a new housing platform which can detect the stress on electricity and the stress on the heart.“There is a growing populat
46、ion of elderly people, and there are statistics to show that more and more of them are going to live alone in the home,” said Johann Siau, a senior lecturer at the University of Hertfordshire in the U.K., who was leading the InterHome project.The system was originally designed to provide remote acce
47、ss (远程访问) to a house so owners could be more energy-efficient. In a small type of the system, set-in controller devices connect securely to the Internet. The owner can then monitor them with a cell phone or computer. User feedback helps the system adapt to routines, saving on electricity.While think
48、ing about responding to user behavior and an increasingly elderly population, the researchers decided to add wristband (手腕带) technology that senses important organs of the body such as body temperature and pulse, Siau said. “If someone were to fall, it would detect the fall and it would immediately
49、start the monitor of the pulse to see if the person has gone into shock (休克),” he said. The wristband communicates with the home system wirelessly. Data from the band can be securely transmitted to the home network and accessed by authorized users. “Were working on trying to reduce it to a level whe
50、re it could potentially be a wrist-sized product,” Siau said. But he warned that the technology presented new challenges. “When you start using that on a larger scale, you have issues of privacy or security,” he said. Siau said the InterHome home system isnt intended to invade privacy. “Were thinkin
51、g about the elderly people who are living alone with no one looking after them,” he said. “Hopefully this will be able to decrease some concerns and possibly save a few lives.”59.The system was first designed for a house owner to .A. keep watch on his house B. keep his house safeC. monitor the elder
52、ly people inside D. save electricity 60.The wristband technology is used in the system to .A. sense important organs of a person B. keep an old man from fallingC. get the medical information of a sick person D. record a persons daily activities 61.The researchers are now trying to make the wristband
53、 .A. more sensitiveB. be connected with the InternetC. available for common people D. suitable to wear on the wrist62.What challenges will the new technology bring according to Siau?A. The wristband can be large and expensive. B. The wristband will get false information of a person.C. It will not be
54、 used in the proper way.D. It will bring inconvenience to the old people. DVisit any junior high or high school and you will experience the power of influence. Clothing, hairstyles, attitudes and even the language are all gained by some amount of influence, whether it is from commercials, fashion, t
55、rends, celebrities or music. Teens and preteen children are influenced by these various factors. However, a childs friends are the No. 1 influence. Before you think your childrens friends could never lead one another astray (误入歧途的), think again. A child may experience an event that has caused overwh
56、elming stress or may have problems at home or school, which causes negative behavior. Negative influences of a childs friends can come without warning. “Parents who ask their children where they are going, who they are going with and request a meeting with their childrens friends and the friends par
57、ents have already taken the first step,” says Mara Berkley, family therapist and professor at Bristol University in Rhode Island. Lynn Rexroat of Chillicothe, Illinois, uses this method to keep tabs on her children. “My oldest son knows that in order for him to go anywhere with a friend, especially
58、one I havent met before, I have to speak with that friends parent to make sure the arrangements are agreeable with us both,” she says. “I dont interrogate (质问) them by asking about their private life. I just want to know that the parents of the other child know what the boys are planning to do. I fe
59、el that by my wanting to know I am protecting my son.” When a parent suspects that their child is hanging out with “the wrong crowd”, the last thing on their mind should be discipline. Instead, Berkley says a parent should be more interested in finding out the reasons behind the behaviors and the ch
60、ilds choice to keep company with these types of friends.63.We can infer from the second paragraph that .A. two children usually go astray together B. a child can be negatively influenced only when he meets problems C. a child can easily go astray under the influence of a friend D. parents know exact
61、ly when a child is negatively influenced 64.Mara Berkley probably agrees that you when your child is going out with his friends.A. should track him secretly B. should not ask himC. can stop him going outD. do something to interfere65.How does Lynn Rexroat protect her son according to the text?A. She
62、 questions his son directly. B. She meets his sons friends herself. C. She makes arrangements with the parents of his sons friends.D. She communicates with the parents of his sons friends.66.The underlined part “keep tabs on” in the fourth paragraph probably means “ ”.A. watch overB. win overC. brin
63、g back D. take control ofETechnology and the present generation of kids go hand in hand. Taking advantage of this factor, Lim Hojoon, the designer from South Korea, has come up with an educational gadget (小装置) especially for children. Kidget, as the name suggests, is a combination of two words kid a
64、nd gadget. This kid-friendly gadget has various uses. When your child is in a mood to read, it takes the form of a storybook. When the mood is to draw and color this wonder gadget turns into a perfect canvas (画布). Your child can freely give color to all his/her imaginations. Should he or she wish to
65、 have some fun, see this device change into a musical instrument. You too would enjoy doing activities with your loved one using this gadget. This touch screen device will definitely prove to be an ideal friend.As many parents agree, in this age of technological advancements it is much easier to int
66、roduce children to new gadgets than adults. While many adults refrain (克制) from trying out something new, kids are more than prepared to take the leap. Keeping this fact in mind, Kidget is the perfect gift for the child of the 21st century. You will be surprised to see how fast your little one gets
67、acquainted with the device. You might even find yourself lagging (落后) behind at times.Kidget has another hidden advantage. It helps take the load off young shoulders. With three things rolled into one, a child has much less books, stationary items and related goods to carry. It comes with a promise
68、to make life simpler for kids. Not only is it simple to use but also easy to carry along. The stylish protective case comes with a belt attached to it. Children up to 14 years of age, the targeted audience, enjoy the freedom that comes with it.67. The Kidget probably cant serve as a _. A. storybook
69、B. perfect canvasC. musical instrumentD. television68. We learn from the second paragraph that Kidget _.A. has many functions B. is only suitable for kids C. can make kids addicted if not properly used D. can change its shape and color 69. A hidden advantage of Kidget is that _. A. it can be put int
70、o a schoolbag B. children can carry much less with itC. it has a stylish protective case D. it contains all the textbooks 70. We can infer from the text that Kidget _.A. has both advantages and disadvantages B. hasnt been put into use C. needs to be further improved D. is a perfect gift for kids第四部分

80、rsally acknowledged, practice makes perfect. Needless to say, practice is of great significance for us to challenge drawbacks and achieve success.It remains fresh in my memory that there was a time when I suffered great frustration in learning English. Failing to master the new words, I gave way to
81、despair, as a consequence of which my academic performance got from bad to worse. Fortunately, a scene that happened to a little boy changed me. At that time I accidentally found him practicing riding bicycle in the playground. Though constantly falling off the bicycle and in pain, he never abandone
82、d it. Instead, he encouraged himself to practice over and over again. At length, he could ride skillfully. Inspired by him, I set about paying more attention and energy to practicing English words and sentences and eventually the progress achieved was considerable.As is shown in the case above, only
83、 by practicing a lot can the flower of success blossom.【KS5U解析】听力原文Text 1 W: I just love it when the leaves of the trees change colors like this!M: Yes, and its not as hot as it is in summer and not as cold as it is in the winter.Text 2W: I can hardly hear the singer.
