课时作业(二十五) Unit 1 Honesty and responsibility 一、阅读理解 (2022·重庆市第二次联合诊断检测)Eleven­year­old Allan Baltz of Jonesboro, Arkansas, is familiar with the foster(领养) care system. When he and his twin sister Alice were only four, they came to live with their foster parents Derek and Lesli Baltz. Last fall when Allan got an opportunity to pay it forward, he made it count. During the height of the shutdown last year, to keep their kids entertained at home, the family decided to switch up their hairstyles. Lesli dyed her hair red and Alice went blue. Derek tried out a mustache, and Allan went the craziest by growing out a long, beautiful mullet(胭脂鱼发型). When friends pushed Allan to enter the USA Mullet Championships competition, Allan initially wasn’t interested because he thought he couldn’t win. However, once he learned there was a cash prize, he changed his tune. “He instantly was like ‘Oh, OK. I can do it, and we’ll give the money to kids in foster care.’” Lesli said. “He didn’t hesitate. He didn’t say, ‘I can get a bike, then give some money away.’ It was just instant that he wanted to give it away.” After submitting his photo and following up with several weeks of campaigning, Allan took home the top prize in the kid’s division with more than 25,000 votes in his favor. He split his winnings between two local foster care organizations, Together We Foster and Project Zero, but his impact went far beyond just the $2,500 he donated. His giving heart inspired others to do the same, and he ended up raising an additional $4,500 for the two organizations. “People also started volunteering ...and donating,” Lesli said. “A few people that we know decided to start fostering because of Allan’s story. The way that people hear it and it inspires them to do something about the foster care crisis is really incredible.” Lesli said she couldn’t be prouder of Allan’s heart for helping others and feels truly lucky to be his mom. 1.What do the underlined words “pay it forward” mean in Paragraph
