Imagine having to read this page, not with your eyes but with your fingers. How do you feel then? With medical knowledge and skills today, 2/3 of the world’s 42 million blind people should not have to stand this illness. Unluckily, rich countries have this knowledge, but developing countries do not. ORBIS is an international charitable organization (国际慈善组织). Its goal is to help fight blindness all over the world. Inside a DC-8 airplane, there is a teaching hospital with television room and classroom. Doctors are taught the latest skills of helping the blind get sight again here. ORBIS is always trying to keep a closer relation among countries. ORBIS helps those developing countries by providing sight-saving training. It has taught over 35,000 doctors and nurses. They continue to treat thousands of blind people every year. They have traveled around the earth 3 times, visited 76 countries and treated over 20,000 blind people. They need your help to continue their work and free people from blindness. For just $ 38, you can help one person see; for $380, 10 people can see; $1,200 helps train a doctor new skills; and for $13,000, you can provide a training programme for a group of doctors who can make thousands of blind people see again. Your love can help them open their eyes to the world. 1．How many blind people should not have to suffer from this illness with medical knowledge and skills today? A．14 million. B．42 million. C．28 million. D．200 million. 2．A lot of blind people in the world have to stand this illness because ________. A．ORBIS didn’t do its best to offer help B．there is no good medical knowledge and skills in the world C．some countries do not have such medical knowledge and skills D．developing countries don’t pay much attention to the blind 3．According to this passage, ORBIS helps fight blindness by doing the following EXCEPT ________. A．selling medicine to raise money B．providing sight-saving training C．treating thousands of blind people every year D．trying to keep closer relations among countries 4．What does the last paragraph want to tell us? A．How much a training programme for a group of doctors costs. B．Why ORBIS needs to continue its work. C．Who can make thousands of blind people see again. D．What you can do to help blind people open their eyes. 【答案】1．C 2．C 3．A 4．D 【导语】本文主要介绍了国际慈善组织ORBIS致力于在全球对抗失明，它通过在飞机上的教学医院培训医生、与各国保持联系、为发展中国家提供视力救助培训等方式帮助盲人，已取得一定成果，并呼吁人们提供帮助让更多盲人重见光明。 1．根据第二段中“With medical knowledge and skills today, 2/3 of the world’s 42 million blind people should not have to stand this illness.”可知，42×2/3=28million。 2．根据第二段中“Unluckily, rich countries have this knowledge, but developing countries do not.”可知，发达国家掌握了相关医疗技术，但发展中国家没有，因此很多盲人受苦是因为一些国家没有这类医疗知识和技术。 3．根据第三段中“ORBIS is always trying to keep a closer relation among countries.”和第四段中“ORBIS helps those developing countries by providing sight-saving training.”及“They continue to treat thousands of blind people every year.”可知，ORBIS通过提供视力救助培训、每年治疗成千上万的盲人、努力在国家间保持密切关系帮助对抗失明，没有提到卖药筹钱。 4．文章最后一段介绍了不同金额的捐款可以带来的帮助，如帮助一个人看见、培训医生等，主要是在说人们可以做什么来帮助盲人重见光明。 The 2026 Ningbo Marathon started on March 15th. To ensure smooth travel for citizens during the event, Ningbo traffic management authorities issued detailed traffic control measures and practical travel tips, along with the official race route guide, scientific detour strategies and public transport adjustment plans. Roads along the track, including Zhongshan East Road, Changchun Road and Yongjiang Avenue, were under time-sharing and sectional control from 0:00 to 11:00 a.m. on the race day. All motor vehicles were prohibited from parking or passing on the track during the control period. To reduce inconvenience, the police reminded drivers to avoid the closed sections and choose peripheral roads. Meanwhile, Ningbo Metro advanced the first train to 5:00 a.m., and some bus routes were adjusted accordingly. Participants could take free metro rides with their race numbers. The authorities appealed to the public to plan trips in advance, choose public transport as much as possible, and support the smooth running of the marathon. Thousands of joggers nationwide flooded into Ningbo. Among the top athletes, Guo Zhongrui was the first to cross the finish line of the full marathon, clocking in at 2 hours, 13 minutes and 20 seconds. During his post-race interview, the newly crowned champion did not talk much about his feelings on winning, but instead gave an interesting score to the race services. “On a scale of 1 to 10, I’d give the race support a 9.9,” Guo Zhongrui said with a smile. “Their service was really thoughtful, but I’m holding back that 0.1 to keep them humble and push them to do even better next time.” 1．Why did Ningbo carry out traffic control? A．To limit the number of private cars. B．To make sure the marathon went well. C．To improve the city’s public transport.

The prices are appropriate, and the shopkeepers are friendly to the elderly”，说明价格是公正合理的，因此划线词是“公正的”，与fair意思相近。 3．第二段指出“Zhu Huaiping, who has lived in the area for over 40 years, often visits the ‘bus convenience store.’”，说明“巴士便利店”给她带来了便利。 4．通读全文，文章主要介绍了北京朝阳区的“巴士便利店”，包括其受欢迎程度、营业时间、对环境的友好性以及未来的发展计划等，因此The “bus convenience store” project是最佳标题。 Welcome to Health First Aid Courses (课程) WHO: For any community (社区) member (must be over 18 years old), volunteer, teacher or parent who communicates with young people.

Not only because it can change people’s lives, but also because it can change the world. By giving to charities, we can help those less lucky and support causes (事业) we believe in. Whether you’re looking for a way to give back or just want to learn more about the work of charities, this post is for you. A charity is an organization that helps people or communities in need. A charity may raise money from common people, companies and governments. Charities usually work on certain areas such as health care, education, disaster relief, and so on. Charities provide services that are important to people in need: food banks provide food to hungry families; churches help people find cheap places to live in; hospitals provide free basic care to low-income patients; animal charities save homeless pets from certain death and find them new homes... The list is endless. They help improve the lives of millions of people every day. Charities are good for you too. Helping others is good for your health and well-being. Volunteering for charities makes you feel like you’re making a difference and contributing, which in turn builds a sense of community and reduces loneliness. Volunteering for a charity can also help develop a sense of purpose, build friendships or improve social networks, and increase self-confidence. Charities don’t just help people. There are also many charities that protect the environment and conserve natural resources. The Nature Conservancy, for example, is a global conservation organization that works to preserve the lands and waters on which all life depends. The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) has been working for more than 50 years to protect endangered species and their habitats. Charities play an important role in our society.

In Futian District of Shenzhen, there are smart boxes that look like package lockers. They offer free fresh food to people in need day and night. The project started in May 2022. It is an effort of the local government, companies and social groups. Up to now, 22 such smart boxes have been set up across 10 streets in Futian, and they are always filled with different kinds of safe food. Just like a traditional bank, this system works with “deposits” (存款) and “withdrawals” (取款). The “deposits” are extra or soon-to-expire (即将过期的) but safe food from 87 partner companies. The “withdrawals” are different from those in a money bank. The food is given to people who need help most. Before 8 p.m., low-income (低收入) families, the disabled and street cleaners can get the food through the “i Shenzhen” App. To cut down on food waste, any leftover food is open to the public after 8 p.m. Safety is the most important thing. The food bank follows strict rules: the boxes are kept at low temperatures, knowing where all food comes from and workers check it often. So far, the project has helped 484,000 people. It has saved 195 tons of food from being wasted and cut carbon emissions (碳排放) by 390 tons. These food banks do more than offer food. They help build a warm community spirit and encourage green living, setting a great example of Shenzhen’s kindness and creativity. 1．What is a “Food Bank” according to the passage? A．A smart box providing free food to people in need. B．A traditional bank to save and get money. C．A supermarket that sells fresh vegetables and fruits. D．A large package locker for mail delivery (投递). 2．What does the underlined word “leftover” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A．Fresh and safe food. B．Food that is left unused. C．Food from partner companies. D．Food for the disabled. 3．Which of the following ways are used to make sure the food is safe? ①Keeping the boxes at a low temperature. ②Knowing where all food comes from. ③Asking the owners to take the food back. ④Having workers check the food often. ⑤Cooking the food in the smart boxes. A．①②③ B．①②④ C．②③⑤ D．①④⑤ 4．What can we learn from the last paragraph? A．The project wastes too much money and food. B．Shenzhen will stop the project after December 2025. C．The project is good for environmental protection. D．People in Shenzhen don’t like using these food banks. 5．What can be the best title for the text?

Now, imagine this person controlling a smart home, or even moving a robotic arm-just by thinking. This is not science fiction. Companies like Neuralink are working to make it real. They are developing a technology called Brain-Computer Interface (BCI脑机接口) to create a direct connection between the human brain and computers. ②BCI is a system that allows information to flow directly between the brain and an outer machine, like a computer or a robotic arm. The key idea is to “read” the brain’s electrical signals, decode (解码) them using machine learning, and translate them into orders. While it sounds super-modern, it has been around for many years in science fiction. Real research began in the late 20th century, focused on helping people with disabilities. Today, with the development of neuroscience (神经科学) and artificial intelligence (AI), BCI technology is developing faster than ever. ③The possible uses of BCI can change many parts of our personal lives. ④For people with serious disabilities, BCI can be a window to the world. It’s possible for them to move again or search online by using their thoughts. ⑤After a tiring day, BCI could create much pleasure and educational experiences in reality, where you control the game or simulation (模拟) with your mind. ⑥BCI also provides much convenience for the public services. For example, firefighters might use it to control robots in dangerous places, keeping themselves safe. In the future, it could even help manage traffic systems by understanding drivers’ stress level. ⑦Although there is exciting progress, making BCI work perfectly is quite challenging. The brain is really complex (复杂的). Reading clear signals often requires small electrodes to be put in, and this will carry risks. Besides, scientists are still learning the “language” or the signals of the brain and should explain meanings correctly every time, that is to say, we should improve the ability of decoding the brain. And this technology raises big ethical (伦理的) questions about privacy (隐私), fairness, and what it means to be human. After all, the journey of BCI has just begun. Stay hungry for knowledge, and don’t be afraid to imagine the impossible. 1．How does the writer begin the passage? A．By imagining a situation. B．By telling a story. C．By asking questions. D．By listing reasons. 2．According to the passage, which of the following is a correct use of BCI technology? A．Put textbook knowledge into students’ brains to get good grades. B．Help people who can’t move or speak to control a robotic arm with thoughts. C．Read some people’s brain thoughts to check their daily privacy. D．Treat serious brain illnesses completely for sick people. 3．What can we learn from the passage? A．BCI helps the information to flow between the brain and body. B．Real early research on BCI was mainly used for educational purposes. C．Neuroscience and AI have developed rapidly thanks to BCI technology. D．BCI can be used to improve medical service and education in daily life. 4．According to the last paragraph, what are the challenges that BCI faces? ①The complexity of the brain. ②The ability of language learning. ③The ethical questions. ④The ability of decoding the brain. A．①②③ B．①②④ C．①③④ D．②③④ 5．Which of the following shows the structure of this passage? A． B． C． D． 【答案】1．A 2．B 3．D 4．C 5．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了脑机接口（BCI）技术的原理、用途以及面临的挑战，展示了这项技术如何帮助残疾人、提供娱乐教育便利以及应用于公共服务，同时指出了大脑复杂性、解码能力和伦理问题等挑战。 1．第一段开头句子“Imagine a person who cannot move or speak because of illness.”表明，作者通过让读者想象一个具体的情景来引入话题，而不是讲故事、提问或列举原因。 2．第一段句子提到“Imagine this person controlling a smart home, or even moving a robotic arm—just by thinking.”以及第四段句子“For people with serious disabilities, BCI can be a window to the world. It’s possible for them to move again or search online by using their thoughts.”均可说明BCI可以帮助不能动或说话的人用思维控制机械臂。其他选项文中未提及。 3．第四段提到帮助残疾人（医疗服务），第五段提到创造教育和娱乐体验（教育），第六段提到公共服务如消防、交通管理。因此BCI可用于改善医疗服务和教育。 4．最后一段提到：the brain is really complex“大脑复杂”——对应①；improve the ability of decoding the brain“需要提高解码能力”——对应④；raises big ethical questions“以及伦理问题”——对应③。没有提到“语言学习能力”，②错误。因此①③④正确。 5．第①段引入情景，第②段解释BCI原理与发展，第③-⑥段阐述用途（第③段为总起，④⑤⑥为具体分述），第⑦段说明挑战。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ Unit 7 Charities 阅读理解10篇 内容导航 单元话题 基础语篇练习 重难语篇练习 单元话题聚焦 慈善 基础语篇练习 稳扎稳打 必拿分数：聚焦稳拿分数题目，确保基础分值 重难语篇练习 突破瓶颈 争夺高分：聚焦高难度题目，争夺关键分数 基础语篇练习 Close your eyes for a minute and imagine what life would be like if you couldn’t see.

With the help of his family, he built a pair of wooden legs and put them in the middle of the rain-filled hole, just like someone falling in with his head first. Coxall said that the joke was mostly for fun, but he also meant to let others know the terrible road condition in his village. Four days later, the government filled in the hole. ________Liu Jiakun has received the 2025 Pritzker Architecture Prize1. Jiakun, a 68-year-old architect (建筑师), from Chengdu, designs (设计) spaces that bring people together and show cultural traditions, believing architecture can help build “a sense of shared community (社区),” he said. His works include the West Village courtyard in Chengdu, the Suzhou Museum of Imperial Kiln Brick2, and other rebuilding projects in China. Jiakun’s works celebrate the lives of common people.

Not only because it can change people’s lives, but also because it can change the world. By giving to charities, we can help those less lucky and support causes (事业) we believe in. Whether you’re looking for a way to give back or just want to learn more about the work of charities, this post is for you. A charity is an organization that helps people or communities in need. A charity may raise money from common people, companies and governments. Charities usually work on certain areas such as health care, education, disaster relief, and so on. Charities provide services that are important to people in need: food banks provide food to hungry families; churches help people find cheap places to live in; hospitals provide free basic care to low-income patients; animal charities save homeless pets from certain death and find them new homes... The list is endless. They help improve the lives of millions of people every day. Charities are good for you too. Helping others is good for your health and well-being. Volunteering for charities makes you feel like you’re making a difference and contributing, which in turn builds a sense of community and reduces loneliness. Volunteering for a charity can also help develop a sense of purpose, build friendships or improve social networks, and increase self-confidence. Charities don’t just help people. There are also many charities that protect the environment and conserve natural resources. The Nature Conservancy, for example, is a global conservation organization that works to preserve the lands and waters on which all life depends. The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) has been working for more than 50 years to protect endangered species and their habitats. Charities play an important role in our society. They provide vital services to millions of people every day and play an important role in our economy. 1．Who is this article written for? A．People in need of help. B．People working for charities.

Many countries are looking for ways to give the old better care. ②Some developed countries don’t have enough care workers for the old. To solve the problem, Caring Robots have been made and are playing parts in looking after the old. With development in science, it’s possible for both the young and the old to enjoy life. ③Culture also works in its way to care for the old. In China, people share the idea that the old are keepers of wisdom (智慧) and young people should look up to them and take care of them. It is helpful for the old to live together with the young with such idea. ④ To improve independent living, Singapore is building more friendly communities (社区) for the old. For example, people doing different jobs like policemen, shopkeepers and students are trained (被训练) to help the old. They help with the housework such as cooking and cleaning. In this way, old people can stay at home, not in a nursing center. ⑤ A society that allows the old to live well is what we are looking for. In our search (寻找) for the best solution for a fast-increasing ageing population, let us keep in mind that we have to work together as there is no one-size-fits-all (万能的) solution. 1．Which one is NOT mentioned (提到) to solve the ageing problem?

D．There is a long way to go to find out the best solution for an aging population. 4．What’s the structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． “Make-A-Wish” is one of the world’s most well-known charities (慈善机构). It makes wishes come true for children who have serious illnesses (疾病). It gives them hope and joy and helps them forget about their health problems and have fun. It all started in 1980 in Phoenix, Arizona. Christopher was a 7-year-old boy who was very ill. He always dreamed of becoming a police officer. Tommy Austin and Ron Cox, two police officers, made his wish come true. They took Christopher to see the city in a police helicopter (直升机) and made a real police uniform for him. There are four kinds of wishes children usually have: I wish to go... Children usually want to travel or go to a concert, a game or a park. I wish to meet... Children sometimes want to meet their favorite actors, singers or players. I wish to be... Some children wish to become actors, singers or police officers. I wish to have... They often want to have a computer, a game, a bike or many other things. Let’s hope more wishes will come true in the future. People who work in the charity always try for the best. Almost 25,000 volunteers (志愿者) help, work or give money.

D．To tell different kinds of children’s wishes. 重难语篇练习 We are all familiar with banks where we save money, but have you ever heard of a “Food Bank”? In Futian District of Shenzhen, there are smart boxes that look like package lockers. They offer free fresh food to people in need day and night. The project started in May 2022. It is an effort of the local government, companies and social groups. Up to now, 22 such smart boxes have been set up across 10 streets in Futian, and they are always filled with different kinds of safe food. Just like a traditional bank, this system works with “deposits” (存款) and “withdrawals” (取款). The “deposits” are extra or soon-to-expire (即将过期的) but safe food from 87 partner companies. The “withdrawals” are different from those in a money bank. The food is given to people who need help most. Before 8 p.m., low-income (低收入) families, the disabled and street cleaners can get the food through the “i Shenzhen” App. To cut down on food waste, any leftover food is open to the public after 8 p.m. Safety is the most important thing. The food bank follows strict rules: the boxes are kept at low temperatures, knowing where all food comes from and workers check it often. So far, the project has helped 484,000 people. It has saved 195 tons of food from being wasted and cut carbon emissions (碳排放) by 390 tons. These food banks do more than offer food. They help build a warm community spirit and encourage green living, setting a great example of Shenzhen’s kindness and creativity. 1．What is a “Food Bank” according to the passage? A．A smart box providing free food to people in need. B．A traditional bank to save and get money. C．A supermarket that sells fresh vegetables and fruits. D．A large package locker for mail delivery (投递). 2．What does the underlined word “leftover” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A．Fresh and safe food. B．Food that is left unused. C．Food from partner companies. D．Food for the disabled. 3．Which of the following ways are used to make sure the food is safe? ①Keeping the boxes at a low temperature. ②Knowing where all food comes from. ③Asking the owners to take the food back. ④Having workers check the food often. ⑤Cooking the food in the smart boxes. A．①②③ B．①②④ C．②③⑤ D．①④⑤ 4．What can we learn from the last paragraph? A．The project wastes too much money and food. B．Shenzhen will stop the project after December 2025. C．The project is good for environmental protection. D．People in Shenzhen don’t like using these food banks. 5．What can be the best title for the text?
