Hossain, a senior at East Meadow High School in New York, has taken part in humanitarian (慈善的) tasks both at home and abroad, from fighting poverty as president of her school’s World Hunger Action Club to teaching English to children in Bangladesh. While in the South Asian country last summer, she spent six weeks volunteering at a school she called “a shack on the banks of a lake”. She provided a group of about 30 students, aged 4 — 8, with homemade educational materials, including cards and game booklets, to help them learn numbers and words. But Hossain’s humane efforts don’t end there. She has also volunteered at senior-living communities and Nassau University Medical Center in New York. She’s even worked with her local Volunteer Ambulance Corps, where she was trained to help give emergency treatment, alongside nursing and medical technicians. “I feel like everyone needs to go out and see what the world has to offer,” Hossain said. “That’s why I’ve done so much; I wanted to explore what I like and don’t like.” You won’t be surprised to know she’s also a star student. Hossain is an AP Scholar with Distinction and earned a score of 1,550 on the SAT. She is also a member of the math team and Pre-Medicine Club.

She finally discovered what she was missing out on when she traveled halfway around the world to help poor kids. When she was 14, she discovered a club at school called Operation Smile, an organization that supports free operation for facially deformed (面部畸形的) kids in developing countries. At that time, she joined Operation Smile just to satisfy her school’s community service requirement. After working with Operation Smile for a while, she learned different countries have different deformities. The more she learned about what affects kids around the world, the more she wanted to go abroad with Operation Smile. At 15, she was chosen to go abroad. Before her trip, she attended a weekend “mission (使命) training”. That’s when she was told she’d be going to the Philippines. Although she was excited, one night during training, she broke down in tears. She felt pity for all those unfortunate kids. After her arrival in the Philippines, she met the kids waiting for operation, and they were running around and happy. It seemed normal. Her job was to play with the kids before their operation to help them feel more relaxed. She also went to nearby schools to hand out toothbrushes and teach students how to brush their teeth. When their operation was over, the kids were always overjoyed, but their parents were blown away. Sometimes they couldn’t even recognize their kids because their appearances had improved so much. They would cry and hug the doctors and nurses and give them presents — they were so grateful. 51. According to the text, what is “Operation Smile”? (no more than 15 words) 52. What was Katie’s original purpose in joining Operation Smile? (no more than 10 words) 53. Why did Katie break down in tears one night during training? (no more than 10 words) 54. What did Katie do to help relax those kids? (no more than 8 words) 55. Would you like to join the club? why? (no more than 20 words) 【答案】51. An organization that supports free operation for facially deformed kids in developing countries. 52. To satisfy her school’s community service requirement. 53. She felt pity for all those unfortunate kids. 54. Playing with the kids before their operation. 55. I’d like to. Not only because I want to live a meaningful life, but because I want to help others. 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了，一个叫 Katie的女孩当初加入Operation Smile俱乐部是为了完成学校参加社区服务的要求。后来她意识到了参加这种公益活动的意义，于是乐在其中了。 【51题详解】 考查细节理解。由第二段中的“When she was 14, she discovered a club at school called Operation Smile, an organization that supports free operation for facially deformed (面部畸形的) kids in developing countries. (14岁时，她在学校发现了一个名为“微笑行动”的俱乐部，这是一个支持发展中国家面部畸形儿童免费手术的组织)”可知，“微笑行动（Operation Smile）”是一个支持发展中国家面部畸形儿童免费手术的组织。故答案为：An organization that supports free operation for facially deformed kids in developing countries. 【52题详解】 考查细节理解。由第二段中的“At that time, she joined Operation Smile just to satisfy her school’s community service requirement. (当时，她加入了微笑行动，只是为了满足学校的社区服务要求)”可知，凯蒂加入微笑行动的初衷是为了满足学校的社区服务要求。故答案为：To satisfy her school’s community service requirement. 【53题详解】 考查细节理解。由第四段中的“Although she was excited, one night during training, she broke down in tears. She felt pity for all those unfortunate kids. (尽管她很兴奋，但有一天晚上训练时，她哭了。她同情那些不幸的孩子)”可知，凯蒂在一天晚上的训练中哭了，是因为她同情那些不幸的孩子。故答案为：She felt pity for all those unfortunate kids. 【54题详解】 考查细节理解。由第四段中的“Her job was to play with the kids before their operation to help them feel more relaxed. (她的工作是在孩子们手术前和他们一起玩，让他们感觉更放松)”可知，通过在孩子们手术前和他们一起玩，凯蒂帮助孩子们放松。故答案为：Playing with the kids before their operation. 【55题详解】 考查开放答题。考生可结合文章中心大意和自身实际，选取角度答题，比如：我想加入俱乐部，不仅因为我想过有意义的生活，还因为我想帮助别人。故答案为：I’d like to. Not only because I want to live a meaningful life, but because I want to help others. 71.第二节：书面表达(满分15分) 56. 为积极响应节能号召，共建绿色家园，请你以学生会的名义用英文写一封以“节约用电，珍惜能源”为主题的倡议书， 内容包括： 1.如今浪费电的现象 2.节约用电的意义 3.日常节电的措施 4.自己感悟 注意： 1.词数100 词左右； 2.可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 Dear students, ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】Dear students, Electricity plays a very important role in our daily life today, and we can not live without it.

Before her trip, she attended a weekend “mission (使命) training”. That’s when she was told she’d be going to the Philippines. Although she was excited, one night during training, she broke down in tears. She felt pity for all those unfortunate kids. After her arrival in the Philippines, she met the kids waiting for operation, and they were running around and happy. It seemed normal. Her job was to play with the kids before their operation to help them feel more relaxed. She also went to nearby schools to hand out toothbrushes and teach students how to brush their teeth. When their operation was over, the kids were always overjoyed, but their parents were blown away. Sometimes they couldn’t even recognize their kids because their appearances had improved so much. They would cry and hug the doctors and nurses and give them presents — they were so grateful. 51. According to the text, what is “Operation Smile”? (no more than 15 words) 52.
