期末复习之阅读表达12篇 (天津名校期末真题) （22-23高二下·天津蓟州·期末）阅读表达 I had been working for a company in Australia for more than ten years. I had just found a better job and I knew that the manager would be disappointed when I was leaving. I recently became friends with a young man who had just migrated to Australia to escape war in his homeland. He was unskilled and was finding life difficult as he was unemployed. The manager asked me to introduce someone who I thought could do the job just as well as me, so I took this opportunity to arrange an interview for my new friend. However, in the end, he was not offered the job after the interview. Later, I asked the manager why my friend was turned down. The manager thought that his English was not good enough for the position, but I suggested that my friend will be a good choice for the company since I could train him. I believed that once given the time to learn, he could do the job. After a week’s training, he was employed and was happy with his position. I knew how the terrible war had forced him to leave his homeland and what price he had paid for doing so. I appreciate being able to live in Australia and believe that this appreciation is best proved by offering acts of kindness to people in need of help. The smile of appreciation from this man continues to impel me to give, which is a very happy and enjoyable process, during which I also receive some unexpected things, such as help, prize, flowers, love and so on. 1．What’s the reason of the young man’s coming to Australia? (no more than 5 words) 2．Why was the young man initially turned down for the job? (no more than 10 words) 3．How did the man get the job in the end?

That means that whenever students are doing homework, they are going to be faced with the problem of using their devices for purposes other than learning. Instead of concentrating on one task, they are performing multiple tasks. According to the research by Larry Rosen, published in the journal Computers in Human Science, students spend up to 45% of their homework time on various tasks unrelated to their studies. Students often get distracted by their phones or use their laptops for unauthorized activities. Often, students think that they are able to multitask effectively, without sacrificing their studies. However, the research shows that it is true in only 5% of all cases. But why do teenagers multitask? The answer is simple: multitasking makes us feel good. As the research indicates, the entertainment gained from secondary activities during studies makes learners feel better emotionally. Watching TV or talking to your friends by email is pleasant and helps students fight boredom while doing homework or listening to a lecture they find boring. Another reason why students multitask is that they simply do not see the negative impact it has on their coursework. Teenagers often overrate their abilities. The seemingly tiny distractions, however, result in a constant need to switch focus and sort out information, injuring the brain by overuse and making the process inefficient. However, the effects of multitasking are not entirely negative. The research conducted by HKU indicates that people who routinely multitask are able to use their senses in conjunction more easily. Other research also shows that multitasking has a positive effect on the ability to pass judgment and solve problems quickly and efficiently. 6．What does the research by Larry Rosen tell us? (No more than 12 words) 7．What’s the meaning of the underlined word “unauthorized” in Paragraph 2? (No more than 3 words) 8．According to the text, why do teenagers multitask? (No more than 12 words) 9．Why are the effects of multitasking not entirely negative? (No more than 12 words) 10．Will you choose to multitask when doing homework? Why or why not? (No more than 25 words) （22-23高二下·天津·期末）阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 A woman in Lakewood, Washington, wanted to find a boy who left $5 and a heartbreaking apology note on her doorstep. On Friday, Marie found this note from “Jake”: “I am sorry that I took your butterfly wind chimes (风铃) without your permission. My mom died and she liked butterflies so I took them to put by our window. Now I feel terrible for my past behavior. I am sorry. This is the only money I have. Please do not be mad at me.” Marie told KCPQ she was not mad and wanted to find Jake to return his $5. “I wanted to cry because apparently he felt bad for what he had done. And I think he might be scared,” she told the station. Marie said she knows stealing is immoral, but she is sympathetic to the child. “I’m not agreeing with the stealing act but he did try to make up for what he had done. I lost my mom at a young age so I really make sense of his feeling and know how hard it is,” she said. Marie wanted to find Jake, not to punish him, but to return his money for his honesty. Marie moved to the neighborhood two months ago and didn’t know many people there, which made tracking down Jake difficult. In order to find the boy, she took to Facebook. Almost a week later, her Facebook post got much attention from social media, but she still didn’t hear from the boy. Marie said she wanted Jake to know that she had no intention of embarrassing or scaring him by asking him to reveal himself. She also said she was willing to help Jake with his schooling if she could find him. 11．What behavior did Jake feel sorry for?

I read mysteries, science fiction, thrillers, and just about any other type of book I could find. I had a thirst for knowledge that never seemed to disappear, no matter how many books I read over the years. Then suddenly, I found that I too had ideas of my own that I wanted to write and share. I wanted to share things that were full of goodness love, joy, and happiness. I tried to ignore my desire at first, but as any writer will tell you, once ideas awaken inside of you, they don’t leave you alone until you write them down. I didn’t have a computer, or even a typewriter, but I grabbed a pen and a notebook and wrote down everything that was burning inside of me. When I was finally done, I didn’t know how to share my work with the world. There was no internet back then, no smartphones, and no social media. However, I sought out(找到)the editor of my local newspaper and asked if he would like to print what I’d written He was a good man, full of both wisdom and kindness. He not only printed my first story but agreed to publish anything else I was willing to write. After that, of course, nothing could stop me. I continued to write new articles each week, which were published in different local papers and later on the internet. Years later I even self-published two collections of my stories in book form. Through my writing, I slowly became a better person. Writing allowed me to discover the goodness and light that exist in us all. I also found that we are all writers.whether we put pen to paper or not. With every choice we make, with every thought we think, and with every action we take, we are writing our own life story. 16．What made the author read hundreds of books?( no more than 5 words) 17．Why did the author start writing?(no more than 10 words) 18．How did the author share his own works according to the passage?(no more than 15 words) 19．How do you understand the underlined part in Paragraph 5?(no more than 8 words) 20．How does the author’s story inspire you in life?

She said: “I’ve waited a long time for it.” A few days later, Leverton took her first ballet class after seeing an advertisement in a newspaper. It showed older women dancing in a class near Leverton’s house. “As I came in the door, I found a big smile on my face. From the minute I started, I felt like coming home.” Leverton had longed to dance as a child. Sadly, her parents couldn’t afford ballet classes, for they were first-generation Indian immigrants, struggling to make a living in the UK. Her father was a train driver on the underground in London and her mother held two cleaning jobs. Nonetheless, she harboured her dream of being a ballerina (芭蕾舞女演员). At her present age, a grand lie-lowering (俯卧撑) to the floor with bent knees-seemed to be out of the question. It took her three months to master the move: leaping and landing on one foot. “I love the struggle and the challenge of learning something new. People in their 60s have a lot of self-limiting beliefs: ‘I can’t do it,’ ‘I’m not good enough.’ And maybe they’re not good enough. But it doesn’t matter,” she said. Ballet has been transformative. At a medical appointment a few months after Leverton’s first class, a nurse measured her at 163cm, half an inch taller than she had thought. She attributes (归因) the difference to improved posture. Her muscle tone has improved and her lower back pain has stopped. Dancing has also brought new friends. She met a group of older, more independent women and worked together towards a team award with the Royal Academy of Dance. And then, of course, there is the joyful feeling. “Ballet is all the therapy (治疗) I’ll ever need,” said Leverton. 21．How did Leverton feel after taking her dance lesson?(no more than 1word) 22．What’s the main idea of the third paragraph?(no more than 12 words) 23．What does the underlined word mean in paragraph 3?(no more than 8 words) 24．What did dancing bring to Leverton?(no more than 10 words) 25．What can you learn from Leverton’s story? And your reason.(no more than 25 words) （22-23高二下·天津南开·期末）阅读下面短文，按照要求用英语回答问题。 One kind of creative writing task is to write an ending for someone else’s story.

Yet we are happy to see global efforts to protect the declining number of sharks. The world has realized that we need the species, like sharks, to keep a balanced ecosystem. Sharks, in particular, are “in” these days. Thanks to good public policy and famous stars such as Jackie Chan and Ang Lee, killing sharks for fin soup is no longer cool. The demand for shark fins has been rising for decades, threatening sharks with extinction (灭绝)—up to 100 million sharks are killed each year just for their fins. But we have started to reverse the trend, particularly in many areas of the United States and overseas where restaurants once proudly provided delicious shark fins on the menu. In California, a ban on the sale and possession of shark fin soup has gone into effect this year through the efforts of Wild Aid and other organizations. Overseas marketing and public efforts featuring posters on public transportation systems and TV ads have been underway for the past few years. These efforts all show signs of success, on both the supply side and the demand side of trade in shark fins. Actually, stopping the killing of sharks is part of a broader movement to stop the killing of wild animals and the buying and selling of wildlife products. These products come from hunting elephants, tigers and rhinos, besides killing marine life. Whether it is shark fin soup or ivory piano keys, killing animals is big business. The hunting of elephants in search of ivory tusks for luxury (奢侈的) goods has become a fall-scale war. The decrease of African elephant populations is alarming. Together with international partners, the United States is leading the worldwide effort to reduce demand for high-end products that rely on killing animals. 31．Why do people begin to make efforts to protect the declining number of sharks? (No more than 15 words) 32．What’s the main reason for killing sharks? (No more than 10 Words) 33．Who helped California decide to ban the sale and possession of shark fin soup?

One team member named Dy, who lost an arm in a landmine (地雷) accident, biked using just one arm to balance. Another named Vulta could only pedal on one side due to paralysis from polio (脊髓灰质炎). Despite all the difficulties, Claire realized quickly that she didn’t have to worry about her team. She saw them deal with rough terrain (不平地形) that she had seen abled cyclists give up on before. The volunteers covered the distance in just four days, not only helping so many people across the country, but also overcoming huge barriers (障碍) to get there. “The best thing about this ride is that the riders have all volunteered their time to do this. They are so passionate about Cambodia and raising money for others in need,” said Claire. “The money raised will feed 99 families in Siem Reap.” Claire recalled her favorite moment of the experience, when one of the cyclists pushed a shattered teammate up a hill for 2 miles. “One moment that stood out for me was when Naret, our only female rider, was feeling tired,” she said. “Her fellow rider gently put his hand on her back and pushed her for 2 miles! They were encouraging each other to push through the tiredness.” 36．Why did Claire and eight Cambodians cycle 155 miles? (no more than 15 words) 37．What worried Claire before the ride? (no more than 15 words) 38．What does the underlined word “shattered” probably mean in Paragraph 7? (1 word) 39．What did Claire think of the journey?

Like many of my friends, I longed to earn some pocket money from the job as well as gaining social experience. Just one week after I worked there, Stubby, the manager, called me into his office. As the saying goes, “life isn’t a bed of roses”. My first job ended in failure. His reason was that I showed up late twice and took more breaks than others. “Oh, I’m a loser,” I thought to myself. I believed that thought was shared by my brothers, neither of whom had ever been fired, and my mother, though she would never express it in those terms. “I am too sad to do anything,” I complained to my father. After listening to my words, he laughed. “It’s not funny; I’m a loser,” I said. “No, you’re not. This is a part of growing up. You will be all right, my dear daughter,” he said, patting my shoulder. “Trust me. You are good enough.” I looked into my father’s eyes and I could see he really trusted me. And I believed him. Since then, “Trust me. You are good enough” are the only words I have repeated to myself. I have worked hard to be a better person and cherished every chance I have got. Finally, I succeeded in entering a good university. After graduation I found my dream job. I couldn’t wait to call my father and show my gratitude.

They moved there by responding to an advertisement looking for a family to run the island’s farm. “ The children had loved holidays here and had no doubt about island life.

And sometimes, the solution comes from a surprising place. During his fieldwork in a remote African village, an anthropologist (人类学家) had devoted himself to studying the unique habits and culture of the local tribe. He had been working in the village for quite some time and on the day before his scheduled return home, he composed a gift—a basket full of delightful fruits from the area, wrapped thoughtfully in a piece of cloth. He placed this offering beneath a tree and then gathered the village children around. The man drew a line in the dirt, looked at the children, and said, “As soon as I signal to start, dash to the tree; the first to arrive will claim the basket of fruits.” However, when he signaled, instead of racing against each other, the children joined hands and ran together to the tree. Then They settled around the basket and enjoyed their treat as a group. Bewildered by their act of unity, the anthropologist asked why they chose to run collectively when any one of them could have seized all the fruits. A young girl looked up at him and said innocently, “How can one of us be happy if all the other ones are sad?” Years later, Desmond Tutu, the well -known South African activist, remembered how a girl once thought about things in a simple yet deep way. He used the word “ubuntu” to describe her thinking. “Ubuntu” means “I exist because we all do.” In other words, we are who we are because of our relationships with others. For that tribe, to be human is to relate with and through others. They think that our happiness comes from the union of our joys and the meaningful impact they have on the community. 51．What gift did the anthropologist prepared? (no more than 10 words) 52．How did the children reach the tree? (no more than 10 words) 53．What does the underlined word “bewildered” probably mean in Paragraph 4?

Please give your reason (s).(no more than 25words) （23-24高二上·天津和平·期末）阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 “I never lied to my father. When I was young, my father told me that if I tried to lie to him, he would always know. My body would tell him the truth because the body’s movement never lies.”, said Martha Graham, an influential American dancer and teacher, fascinated with the ideal that “movement never lies”. Martha realized that the body is its own storyteller. She just wanted to find ways to tell those stories through dance. She began by studying ballet, but soon realized that it wasn’t right to her. From the very beginning of her dancing career, Martha saw dance differently. She was tiny, not tall like ballerinas (芭蕾舞女演员) at that time. But she had a strong, powerful body and dark, soulful (热情的) eyes. So she developed a style of movement different from traditional romantic ballet and called it modern dance. She brought modern dance to a new level of popularity in American culture. Unlike ballet, which took place in a fairylike world, Martha’s modern dance expressed real emotions. Martha believed that it was important that the audience see themselves within her dances. She created and arranged many dances that showed emotions such as anger, jealousy, love or hate of common people. Martha loved to wear long, dark, flowing robes when she performed. In the dances she used her robes in many different ways. Martha’s most important prop (支撑物) was the floor. She always danced in her bare feet, and her feet worked hard to tell their stories. The technique catching on, she founded the Dance Repertory Theater, and later, the Martha Graham School of Contemporary Dance. Martha Graham died in 1991, just short of 100 years old. During her life she never stopped dancing. A part of Martha Graham lives on in modern dancers everywhere who continue to study the “Graham technique”. They strive for her honesty, always remembering that movement never lies. 56．Why did Martha Graham never lied to her father when she was young?(no more than 12words) 57．What does the underlined word“ideal”mean in paragraph 1?(no more than 2 words) 58．For what reason did Martha Graham develop modern dance?(no more than 15 words) 59．What is unique of her modern dance?(no more than 20 words) 60．What impresses you most of Graham’s story? And why?(no more than 20 words) 试卷第1页，共3页 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 参考答案： 1．To escape/Escaping war in his homeland. 2．Because his English was not good enough./ Because he was weak in English. 3．The author helped train him for the job. 4．Motivate/ Encourage/Inspire. 5．Giving is also receiving.

Her father was a train driver on the underground in London and her mother held two cleaning jobs. Nonetheless, she harboured her dream of being a ballerina (芭蕾舞女演员).( Leverton从小就渴望跳舞。遗憾的是，她的父母没钱上芭蕾舞课，因为他们是第一代印度移民，在英国努力谋生。她的父亲是伦敦地铁的一名火车司机，母亲做过两份清洁工作。尽管如此，她仍怀揣着成为芭蕾舞演员的梦想)”可知，第三段主要介绍了Leverton小时候没能学跳舞的原因。故答案为Why Leverton didn’t learn dancing when she was young. 23．考查词句猜测。根据划线词上文“Leverton had longed to dance as a child. Sadly, her parents couldn’t afford ballet classes”可知，Leverton从小就渴望跳舞。遗憾的是，她的父母没钱上芭蕾舞课，以及Nonetheless表示“尽管如此”，说明虽然没钱去上芭蕾舞蹈，但Leverton仍然牢记自己成为芭蕾舞演员的梦想。故划线词意思是“牢记”。故答案为Keep/Bear sth. in mind. 24．考查细节理解。根据最后一段“Ballet has been transformative.

She met a group of older, more independent women and worked together towards a team award with the Royal Academy of Dance. And then, of course, there is the joyful feeling.(芭蕾舞具有变革性。在Leverton上完第一堂课几个月后的一次医疗预约中，一位护士给她测量了163厘米的身高，比她想象的要高半英寸。她将这种差异归因于姿势的改善。她的肌肉张力改善了，腰痛也停止了。跳舞也带来了新朋友。她遇到了一群年纪更大、更独立的女性，并一起努力获得皇家舞蹈学院的团队奖。当然，还有一种快乐的感觉)”可知，舞蹈给莱弗顿带来了健康、朋友和快乐。故答案为Health, friend and happiness. 25．考查开放题。根据“你能从莱弗顿的故事中学到什么？还有你的理由”可回答：这个故事告诉我，我们应该有自己的梦想，因为我们永远不知道什么时候我们会实现它们。故答案为The story tells me that we should have our own dreams because we never know when we will achieve them. 26． To teach us how t如write an ending. 27．Because your inmagination can inspire different ideas. 28．Because we're not writing anew story but an ending to a story that already exists. 29．Complete/End/Close. 30．We should follow logic.

To finish a story, you should: (一种创造性写作任务是为别人的故事写一个结局。你写的内容应该与原故事相符，这样才可信。要完成一个故事，你应该)”以及下文各段的段首句可知，文章主要讲述如何为他人的故事写好结尾，因此推断作者的写作目的是教给我们如何写他人的故事的结尾。故答案为：To teachus how to write an ending. 27．考查细节理解。根据第三段的“Sometimes your creative imagination can be activated(使激活)through brainstorming different ideas and then choosing the best one. (有时，你的创造性想象力可以通过头脑风暴不同的想法，然后选择最好的一个来激活)”可知，创造性的想象力可以激活不同的想法，从中选择一个最好的想法，因此可知，我们需要创造性的想象力是因为创造性的想象力可以为故事的结尾想出一些好的想法。故答案为：Because your imagination can inspire different ideas. 28．考查细节理解。根据第四段“Keep the content consistent with the original story. You are not trying to write a new story; you are trying to write an ending for a story that already exists. (保持内容与原故事一致。你不是在写一个新故事；你正试图为一个已经存在的故事写一个结局)”可知，保持与原故事一致是因为我们不是在写一个新的故事，而是在为一个已经存在的故事写一个结局。故答案为：Because we're not writing a new story but an ending to a story that already exists. 29．考查词句猜测。根据下文内容“When working on an ending you should therefore think about what has happened to the main character and how that character has changed or grown because of the events in the story.

The world has realized that we need the species, like sharks, to keep a balanced ecosystem.(然而，我们高兴地看到全球努力保护日益减少的鲨鱼数量。世界已经意识到，我们需要像鲨鱼这样的物种来保持生态系统的平衡。)”可知，为什么人们开始努力保护数量下降的鲨鱼是因为世界已经意识到我们需要鲨鱼来维持生态系统的平衡。。故答案是Because the world has realized that we need sharks to keep a balanced ecosystem. 32．考查细节理解。根据第三段中的“The demand for shark fins has been rising for decades, threatening sharks with extinction (灭绝)—up to 100 million sharks are killed each year just for their fins.(几十年来，对鱼翅的需求一直在上升，威胁着鲨鱼的灭绝——每年仅为了鱼翅就杀死多达 1 亿条鲨鱼。)”可知，人们对鲨鱼翅的需求在日益增长，所以猎杀鲨鱼主要是为了得到鲨鱼翅。故答案是People kill sharks just for their fins. 33．考查细节理解。根据第四段中的“In California, a ban on the sale and possession of shark fin soup has gone into effect this year through the efforts of Wild Aid and other organizations.(在加利福尼亚州，通过野生援助组织和其他组织的努力，禁止销售和拥有鱼翅汤的禁令已于今年生效。)”可知，在Wild Aid and other organizations的努力下，禁止销售和持有鱼翅汤的禁令开始生效。故答案是Wild Aid and other organizations. 34．考查词义猜测。根据第四段中的“The demand for shark fins has been rising for decades, threatening sharks with extinction (灭绝)—up to 100 million sharks are killed each year just for their fins.(几十年来，对鱼翅的需求一直在上升，威胁着鲨鱼的灭绝——每年仅为了鱼翅就杀死多达 1 亿条鲨鱼。)”可知，由于对鲨鱼翅的需求日益增加，每年就有1亿多条鲨鱼被猎杀，结合下文中的but可知，划线单词所在的句子与该句的内容是转折关系，结合“we have started to reverse the trend, particularly in many areas of the United States and overseas where restaurants once proudly provided delicious shark fins on the menu.(我们已经开始reverse这一趋势，特别是在美国和海外的许多地区，餐馆曾经自豪地在菜单上提供美味的鱼翅。)”可知，很多地区的这一趋势发生了翻转，由此可推断，reverse的意思为“改变”。故答案是Change. 35．开放型题目。根据文章最后一段中的“Together with international partners, the United States is leading the worldwide effort to reduce demand for high-end products that rely on killing animals.(美国与国际伙伴一道，正在领导全世界减少对依赖杀害动物的高端产品的需求的努力。)”可知，减少对高端产品的需求可以减少对野生动物的杀害，所以，在我看来禁止野生动物产品的买卖是最好的组织猎杀野生动物的方法。故答案是In my opinion, stopping selling and purchasing the animal products is the best way to stop killing animals. 36．To help needy people. 37．Her team couldn’t finish the route. 38．Exhausted. 39．It was amazing and inspiring. 40．I think the team members are strong-minded, brave and caring. 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲的是24岁的英国志愿者克莱尔·怀亚特带领8名柬埔寨残疾人从首都金边骑行155英里，抵达暹粒，为冠状病毒大流行期间需要帮助的人筹集资金并运送物资。 36．考查细节理解。根据第一段的“Claire Wyatt, a 24-year-old British volunteer, led eight Cambodians living with disabilities on a 155-mile bike ride from Phnom Penh, the nation’s capital, to Siem Reap to raise money and deliver supplies to those in need amid the coronavirus pandemic (新冠病毒大流行).(24岁的英国志愿者克莱尔·怀亚特带领8名柬埔寨残疾人从首都金边骑行155英里，抵达暹粒，为冠状病毒大流行期间需要帮助的人筹集资金并运送物资)”可知，克莱尔和八个柬埔寨人要骑155英里是要帮助有需要的人，即To help needy people，故答案为To help needy people. 37．考查细节理解。根据第三段的“When she was first asked to lead the excursion, Claire admitted, she was feeling nervous about her team traveling such a distance in just a few days, because cycling with a disability can come with added physical and emotional challenges.(克莱尔承认，当她第一次被邀请带队远足时，她对她的团队在短短几天内走这么远感到紧张，因为残疾人士骑自行车会带来额外的身体和精神挑战)”可知，她担心她的团队不能完成这么远的路程，即Her team couldn’t finish the route，故答案为Her team couldn’t finish the route. 38．考查词句猜测。根据最后一段的“One moment that stood out for me was when Naret, our only female rider, was feeling tired(有一个时刻让我印象深刻，那就是我们唯一的女骑手纳雷特感到疲惫的时候)”和“Her fellow rider gently put his hand on her back and pushed her for 2 miles!(她的同伴轻轻地把手放在她的背上，把她推了2英里！)”可知，划线词所在句子的意思是“克莱尔回忆起她最喜欢的时刻，当一个骑自行车的人把一个筋疲力尽的队友推到山上2英里”，划线词shattered的意思是“筋疲力尽的”，即exhausted，故答案为Exhausted. 39．考查推理判断。根据第二段的““Leading this trip was an incredibly special experience for me,” said Claire. “Not only was I inspired by the determination of each and every rider, but also the team taught me every day not to focus on their disability.”(“带领这次旅行对我来说是一次难以置信的特殊经历，”克莱尔说。“我不仅被每一位车手的决心所鼓舞，而且车队每天都教导我不要关注他们的残疾。”)”以及原本认为不可能的任务被完成了推知，Claire认为这次旅行是这是令人惊讶和鼓舞人心的，故答案为It was amazing and inspiring. 40．考查推理判断。根据第四段的“One team member named Dy, who lost an arm in a landmine (地雷) accident, biked using just one arm to balance.

She saw them deal with rough terrain (不平地形) that she had seen abled cyclists give up on before.(一位名叫Dy的队员在一次地雷事故中失去了一只手臂，他骑自行车时只用一只手臂来保持平衡。另一个叫Vulta的人因为小儿麻痹症而瘫痪，只能靠一边踩踏板。尽管困难重重，克莱尔很快意识到她不必担心她的团队。她看到他们在崎岖的地形上行走，而她以前曾见过有能力的自行车手放弃)”，第五段的“The volunteers covered the distance in just four days, not only helping so many people across the country, but also overcoming huge barriers (障碍) to get there.(志愿者们仅用了四天时间就完成了这段距离，不仅帮助了全国这么多的人，而且克服了巨大的障碍到达那里)”和第六段的““The best thing about this ride is that the riders have all volunteered their time to do this.
