For the brave in the armed forces,being sent away from home for months at a time is just part of the duty.However,it’s never an easy one to perform especially for those with children.So when I found out I was going to be stationed in South Korea for a year,I was nervous about how my five children,particularly my eldest daughter Abigail,would take the news since it meant I wouldn’t be home to see her graduate from high school.
Incredibly,Abigail told me not to worry and even suggested we live stream the event among family members when I leaked the news.“We’ve been lucky you haven’t had to be sent abroad yet.Anyway we can get connected through the Internet.See me on your phone on my spot,” Abigail said.She stepped into many of my roles when I was gone.I wanted to find a way to thank her and show her how proud I was of her.I started planning the special surprise when my request to return home a few weeks early to attend Abigail’s graduation ceremony was approved.
When my time in South Korea finally came to an end,I flew home,rented a car,and stayed in a hotel.And on Abigail’s graduation day,I hid in an office behind the stage waiting until I heard my daughter’s name called.I just kept thinking “Don’t cry.Don’t trip in your heels.Don’t fall over.”At last!Abigail was up on stage.I slipped up behind her,whispered in her ear,and around she turned!“I was just thinking,like,‘You aren’t supposed to be here.What?What?How?’ It was the biggest shock...I’m pretty sure my dad made people he didn’t even know cry.Emotional for everyone,” Abigail cried.

The wrong donations(捐赠) end up costing charities precious dollars just to store leftovers(积压物资),which is why clothing may not be the best use of your donation efforts. 1
Think of the children.Children’s needs are important during disasters.As families influenced by a disaster try to protect their children from the effects,they try to provide children with toys,snacks,juices,candies,and other comfort items,particularly in post-disaster environments. 2 Shelters will accept these donations and give them out properly.
Donate your skills to your community.If you are trained in disaster response,you can contact your local emergency services and the Red Cross to see if they need volunteers.Let them know your abilities. 3 Do not go as an individual(单独的) volunteer to a disaster area expecting to find ways to help.
4 Time and comfort are the two most important things you can give for free.Spend time listening to the victims(受灾群众) with an understanding ear.You can bring books and read to the children.
Become a volunteer now for the future.Besides donating money,volunteering is the best way to give. 5 The Red Cross and charity organizations prefer a trained group of volunteers who can jump into action.They don’t have the resources to train during the disasters.

语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。文章就如何给灾区人们提供帮助,提出了一些实用的建议
1.答案 G
解析 根据上文可知,错误的捐赠只会花费慈善机构宝贵的金钱来储存积压的物资,这就是为什么衣物可能不是你捐赠的最佳途径。再结合下文提到的四个建议可推知,G项“这里有一些建议你可以采纳,以最明智的方式来帮助那些有需要的人”符合语境。故选G。
2.答案 F
解析 根据上文“...try to provide children with toys,snacks...”可推知,设空处应建议捐赠者买一些玩具给孩子们。F项“把你的钱变成适合各年龄段孩子的玩具和娱乐选择”符合语境,F项中的toys是词汇复现。故选F。
3.答案 D
解析 由上文“If you are trained in disaster response,you can contact your local emergency services and the Red Cross to see if they need volunteers.Let them know your abilities.”可推知,D项“然后,如果他们需要志愿者,他们就会继续跟进”符合语境,D项中的volunteers是词汇复现。故选D。
4.答案 C

5.答案 E
解析 根据上文的“Become a volunteer now for the future...”和下文的“The Red Cross and charity organizations prefer a trained group of volunteers who can jump into action.”可推知,设空处应陈述要想成为志愿者,就应该在灾难前进行训练,这样才能在灾难来临时给予帮助。E项“然而,你必须在灾难发生前就开始这个过程”符合语境,E项中的this process指代上文提到的Become a volunteer。故选E。

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要探讨了语言作为人类文明的独特象征,其根源、方言的特点,以及在全球化背景下语言学习的挑战和语言多样性的重要性。
1.考查冠词。句意:语言,人类文明的一种独特象征,有着源自古代的深厚根基。此处泛指“一种独特的象征”,且unique是以辅音音素开头的单词,所以应用不定冠词a来修饰。故填a。
2.考查动词时态。句意:语言,人类文明的一种独特象征,有着源自古代的深厚根基。分析句子结构可知,此处为定语从句的谓语动词,根据时间状语from ancient times可知,此处表示过去发生的事情,应用一般过去时。故填originated。
3.考查副词。句意:每一种方言都有其特定的特征,反映了说话者的历史、文化和态度。修饰动词carries应用specific的副词形式specifically作状语,意为“特别地,独特地”。故填specifically。
4.考查非谓语动词。句意:这些方言通常基于地理、社会和贸易等因素,正在逐步发展。分析句子可知,these dialects are gradually developing为完整句子,且空前无其它连词,所以base应用非谓语动词形式,因其与逻辑主语these dialects之间为被动关系,be based on表示“基于”,所以应用其过去分词形式作状语。故填based。
5.考查非谓语动词。句意:随着全球交流的发展,理解和欣赏语言的多样性变得比以往任何时候都更加重要。此处为“with + 宾语 + 宾补”复合结构, grow与宾语communication之间为主动关系,所以应用其现在分词形式作宾语补足语。故填growing。
6.考查介词。句意:尽管教育技术取得了巨大进步,但扩大词汇量对许多学习者来说仍然是一个挑战。根据句意可知,前后句之间为转折关系,应用介词despite,表示“尽管”,后接名词短语,且位于句首,首字母需大写。故填Despite。
7.考查固定搭配。句意:这个挑战不仅指学习新单词,还包括理解它们的各种用法。not only...but (also)...为固定搭配,表示“不仅……而且……”,用于连接两个并列成分。故填but。
8.考查名词。句意:同样重要的要求之一是经常沉浸在阅读材料中。根据空前的one of the equally important可知,此处应用名词的复数形式,require的名词形式为requirement,其复数为requirements。故填requirements。
9.考查定语从句。句意:毕竟,词语不仅仅是符号,它们还反映了我们的思想和周围的世界。此处为关系词引导的非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词words,关系词在从句中作主语,应用which来引导。故填which。
10.考查动词语态。句意:世界变得越国际化和全球化,国家与文化之间的语言特征将越被共享。根据句意可知,share与主语language characteristics之间为被动关系,且空前有will,故此处应用be shared,构成一般将来时的被动语态。故填be shared。
