Ready for Love
When Kelly was in college, she worked at a store in her free time. The store sold secondhand goods. She found people brought some toys to donate (捐献).
Kelly could tell that the toys held great sentimental (情感) value (价值) for their owners (主人). So she felt sad when the toys were sold very cheaply, put in the dog toy place, or thrown away.
Kelly started doing some research. She found this wasn’t happening only in her town. She learned millions of toys ended up in landfills (垃圾填埋场) every year in the world.
Kelly decided to do something and posted her ideas on the Internet. “If we can change the ideas that toys lose their value when people throw them away,” she said, “then we can show people they have so much left in them.” That’s how the Loved Before toy adoption company began.
Loved Before accepts (接受) donations of toys. People can donate a soft toy through the mail, or by taking a toy to a local drop-off point in the United Kingdom.
The original (原先的) owner writes down the name of the toy and a story about it. Kelly and her team believe that sharing the story can make the toy special and it helps the new owner understand its value.
Next, they clean, photograph, and package the toy with its name and story. Every Monday, they post the toys on the Loved Before website. The company will donate at least half of the money from the sale of each toy.
Since Kelly and her team built the company in 2019, Loved Before has sold more than 50,000 toys. But the company’s goal is more than “just trying to save some toys from landfills,” she says. “We’re trying to change ideas on a really wide level.” She explains that Loved Before hopes to teach kids about the value of loving secondhand things again.
24. What did Kelly find when she worked at a store?
A. People didn’t like the new toys in her store.
B. People bought some new toys in the landfills.
C. People threw away some of the new toys.
D. People donated some toys they loved before.
25. What does the original owner do before he donates the toy?
A. He makes a video and packs it well.
B. He cleans it before donating.
C. He writes the name and the story about the toy.
D. He tells others how to play with the toy online.
26. Why does Kelly start Loved Before company?
A. To take photos for the old toys.
B. To reuse the materials from the old toys.
C. To get more money to buy new toys.
D. To teach children to value the secondhand things.
C
Do you still remember the good feelings you experienced when you did something good for someone else? Perhaps it was the satisfaction (满意) of cleaning the garden for your neighbor or the sense of happiness from working at a local community, or the gratification (满足) from donating (捐献) to a good cause. Or perhaps it was the simple joy of having helped out a friend. One reason behind the good feelings is that it helps people get close to each other. Science shows that helping others can make you feel good. The key is to find the way that works for you.
Someone says “If you want happiness for an hour, take a nap (打盹). If you want happiness for a day, go fishing. If you want happiness for a year, have a long trip with your friends. If you want happiness for a lifetime, help somebody.”
For thousands of years, the greatest thinkers have suggested the same thing: Happiness is found in helping others. Scientific research shows a lot of examples to support the idea that helping others may be the secret to living a life that is happier, healthier, and more productive (有成效的) and meaningful.
Giving can feel great. And as we learn early, it’s better to give than to receive. The more you give, the more you get happiness. Follow these tips:
①Find your passion (热情). It’s not how much you give. It’s how much love you put into giving. You might care about one cause more than others, and that’s okay. Support the cause that feels right for you.
②Give your time. The gift of time is often more valuable (宝贵的) to the receiver, and more satisfying to the giver, than the gift of money. We don’t all have the same amount of money, but we all have time. We can give some of this time to help others—whether a few hours each day, or a few days each year.
③Give to groups with clear goals. Michael Norton, a professor at Harvard Business School, says that “If we tell the donators what we can do with their money and how their donations can help other people, they will get more happiness.”
④Be active. Set aside time to serve your community. Think about your choices, and find the cause and type of service that best match your values.
27. The writer uses the examples to show _________.
A. helping others can bring happiness
B. going fishing is a good hobby
C. cleaning the garden is a good choice for part time job
D. taking a nap is better than traveling with friends
28. What can we learn from the passage?
A. We should care more about how much we get.
B. Receiving is the best way to bring long time happiness.
C. Giving money is more valuable than giving time.
D. People can feel happier when they have clear goals in donating.
29. Which can be the best title of the passage?
A. Be Active, Be Healthier B. Help Others, Help Yourself
C. Work Together, Reach the Goal D. Save Time, Save Money
D
Screen Time and Children
As children grow and develop, they can be easily influenced (影响) by what they see and hear, especially from digital media Digital media can be TV, the Internet, and smart phones. Some programs can be educational. But many children watch too much digital media. Some programs can show children bad things that parents don’t want them to learn, or that can cause fear. Digital media may also show children poor eating habits through commercials (广告).
Too much time on TV can take away from reading, studying, learning activities, play, and exercise. Digital media can also show drinking wine and smoking. Children may see these things before they are ready to understand them and before they can make good decisions (决定).
Parents can do something to help decrease the effects (影响) of digital media. They can pay attention to the type of program and limit (限制) children’s screen (屏幕) time. Here are some ways for setting good viewing (观看) habits:
Choose programs for children to watch. Always plan what children will be watching. Don’t turn on TV randomly (随意地). Give choices between 2 programs parents think are good for their children. Limit screen time to 1 or 2 hours a day for children older than 2 years. Scientists advise that children younger than 2 years should not watch digital media.
Turn to educational shows such as the Discovery Channel, Learning Channel, or History Channel. Watch programs with children. Talk about what happened on the show. Talk about what was good or bad about the program. Talk about the difference between reality and make-believe.
Parents should be a good example to their children by not watching too much TV or digital media. Limit their own screen time. When the daytime programs are not suitable for children try other activities, especially reading. Read to children instead of watching TV.
Plan other fun activities for children, so they have choices instead of screen time. Try a trip to the park, a festival, a playground, or a visit to a relative’s or friend’s house instead. Don’t watch TV or use phones during meals.
30. The writer thinks _________.
A. children are easy to be influenced by TV programs
B. all the programs are good for children’s development
C. TV commercials can give children better choices on food
D. screen time can improve children’s reading ability
31. The word “decrease” in Paragraph 3 most probably means __________.
A. fit B. improve C. lower D. support
32. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Children can choose 2 programs they like.
B. Children younger than 2 years can watch TV for 2 hours.
C. Parents shouldn’t watch TV with children because they have different interests.
D. Watching TV with children can help stop the bad effects of TV on them.
33. Why does the writer write the passage?
A. To explain the bad effects of watching TV.
B. To tell some ways for setting good viewing habits.
C. To show the importance of choosing right TV programs.
D. To share the experience of using digital media.
