Unit 7 International Charities 单元话题阅读回答问题练习 （2022春·江苏淮安·八年级统考期末）Two Americans Stephen and Andersen went on a 190-day charity walk across the US to raise money for the Red Heart Fund, a charity providing poor children in Africa with money support and more. Both at the age of 24, they have lived in the eastern state of Delaware since their birth. They have been best friends since childhood. They both like travelling and want to see the country. So when Stephen advised this cross-country journey, Andersen agreed with no hesitation(犹豫). On Wednesday evening, March 1, the two men started off from their hometown. Every day they walked about 40 kilometres. They never knew for sure where they would sleep until they got close to sunset. They mostly slept outdoors, but every now and then they would stay in hotels to relax for a few hours. Luckily, many strangers along the way gave them meals, smiles, and a place to sleep at night. A man called Dimitri Olympidis even offered them a ride, but they refused. They said they preferred to walk. By September 6, they ended their trip on the west coast in San Francisco, the state of California, raising about 300,000 dollars from lots of nice people and the local businesses. “The people we’ve met along the way have been great,” Stephen said at an interview. “We’re grateful for even the smallest contributions to our cause. It’s people liked them that truly make this trip worth it.” 根据短文内容回答问题，每小题答案不超过六个单词。 1．How many days did the charity walk last (持续) ? _________________________________________________________________________________________ 2．Which state did they start off from? _________________________________________________________________________________________ 3．Where did they sleep during the journey? _________________________________________________________________________________________ 4．What do you think of Dimitri Olympidis? ________________________________________________________________________________________
