But at first, my job was only to interview the new staff (员工) about their training. I did what I was told to do, but to be honest, I didn’t feel like I was creating the value I imagined. After a few days, my fellow volunteers and I were asked to make a video for UNICEF China. In doing so, I was able to work with some experienced staff and learn how they understood their job. Thanks to it, I have learned several important lessons. First, making a big change takes time. Staff with the longest work experience in UNICEF usually make the most difference. Second, the time we have spent is always worth it, no matter how long it is. For example, it might take ages to help build up one school. Once it begins, it can grow and develop further. Moreover, I find that even the smallest thing we do can be valuable. Later on, the video was completed. It showed what UNICEF China did. In it, some staff were working at the front line (前线), some were doing paperwork in the office and I was interviewing the new staff. I see that everyone is helping in their own ways, no matter how small the act is. Together, we are making a difference to our society and creating a brighter future for our children. 1．What was the writer’s job at first? 2．What activity allowed the writer to work with experienced UNICEF staff? 3．How many lessons did the writer learn? 4．What kind of work were some staff doing in the office in the video? 5．What can we learn from the writer’s volunteer experience in UNICEF China? 2 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ 2 / 11 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ Unit 7 Charities 话题阅读精练 模块 语篇 题型 体裁 词数 内容简介 时文阅读 Passage1 阅读理解 说明文 230 本文介绍杭州东站暖心过夜服务获赞。 Passage2 阅读理解 说明文 230 本文介绍中国伟大的医生：吴孟超。 实战演练 Passage1 阅读理解 记叙文 307 本文讲述了Natalie Doan在飓风桑迪袭击家乡Rockaway后，创建网站帮助灾民重建家园，最终获得白宫表彰的故事。 Passage2 阅读理解 记叙文 293 本文讲述刘爱伦在老挝资助两名女孩上学，并先后发起“希望视界”和“希望之光”公益项目帮助残疾儿童的故事。 Passage3 阅读理解 说明文 199 本文主要介绍了慈善的重要性、慈善机构的定义、工作内容、对个人及社会（含自然保护方面）的作用等，阐释慈善机构的重要性与角色。 Passage4 完形填空 记叙文 395 本文主要讲述了害羞女孩莉莉通过参与帮助留守儿童的慈善项目，从犹豫到主动写信，最终变得自信并影响同学的故事，说明勇敢尝试能带来积极改变。 Passage5 完形填空 记叙文 272 本文讲述的主要是一个有钱的女士在一个雪天汽车抛锚了，结果一个好心的男人罗伯特帮她修好之后，并没有要她的钱，只是希望她在别人需要帮助的时候伸出援手。她路过一户人家，进去后发现这家很穷，正需要帮助，就偷偷地在桌子上留了钱后离开了。罗伯特回到家后，他的妻子告诉他一切都会好起来的，因为一个陌生人帮助了他们。 07 Passage6 任务型阅读 记叙文 252 本文主要讲述了作者作为联合国儿童基金会中国分会志愿者的经历。从最初觉得工作没有创造预想的价值，到通过制作视频的工作与资深员工合作，学到了重要的人生道理，最终明白无论行动多小，每个人都在为社会贡献力量。 时文阅读 Passage1 A Warm Night at the Railway Station 杭州东站暖心过夜服务获赞 On December 20, a passenger shared a post online about getting free overnight rest at Hangzhou East Railway Station—and many people loved the kind idea!   12月20日，一位乘客在网上分享了自己在杭州东站免费过夜休息的经历，这个暖心的举措赢得了许多人的点赞！ The station offers special green train carriages right at the entrance for travelers who miss their trains, arrive late at night, or need to wait for an early morning one.

But at first, my job was only to interview the new staff (员工) about their training. I did what I was told to do, but to be honest, I didn’t feel like I was creating the value I imagined. After a few days, my fellow volunteers and I were asked to make a video for UNICEF China. In doing so, I was able to work with some experienced staff and learn how they understood their job. Thanks to it, I have learned several important lessons. First, making a big change takes time. Staff with the longest work experience in UNICEF usually make the most difference. Second, the time we have spent is always worth it, no matter how long it is. For example, it might take ages to help build up one school. Once it begins, it can grow and develop further. Moreover, I find that even the smallest thing we do can be valuable. Later on, the video was completed. It showed what UNICEF China did. In it, some staff were working at the front line (前线), some were doing paperwork in the office and I was interviewing the new staff. I see that everyone is helping in their own ways, no matter how small the act is. Together, we are making a difference to our society and creating a brighter future for our children. 1．What was the writer’s job at first? 2．What activity allowed the writer to work with experienced UNICEF staff? 3．How many lessons did the writer learn? 4．What kind of work were some staff doing in the office in the video? 5．What can we learn from the writer’s volunteer experience in UNICEF China? 【答案】1．To interview the new staff about their training. 2．Making a video for UNICEF China. 3．Three. 4．They were doing paperwork. 5．Small acts can make a difference./Even the smallest thing we do can be valuable./Everyone can help no matter how small the act is. 【导语】本文主要讲述了作者作为联合国儿童基金会中国分会志愿者的经历。从最初觉得工作没有创造预想的价值，到通过制作视频的工作与资深员工合作，学到了重要的人生道理，最终明白无论行动多小，每个人都在为社会贡献力量。 1．第一段“But at first, my job was only to interview the new staff (员工) about their training.”介绍了作者起初的工作，直接提取。 2．第二段“After a few days, my fellow volunteers and I were asked to make a video for UNICEF China.”说明了作者与资深员工合作的活动，答案是原文直接信息。 3．第三段“First, making a big change takes time. ... Second, the time we have spent is always worth it, no matter how long it is. ...
