第一节：阅读理解（共20小题，每小题2分，满分40分）

阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

The HOPE IS A GAME-CHANGER PROJECT will deliver unbreakable soccer balls to kids who, all too often, see things horrible, broken and not survive the simplest of circumstances. The project started taking form well before anyone knew where it would lead-which is to test the power of like-minded people working together to turn inspiration into action.

Four years ago Bobby was in Rwanda offering help to the people there and taking photos of a child soldier named Moise with his "soccer ball", which was a pile of rubbish tied together with a string. This "ball" was the only thing Moise could call his own-no family, no home, no place to go. Forced to fight in the Congo and having killed three people at the unbearably young age of seven, the boy's spirit was broken. And Bobby knew, as he took one photo after the next, that he'd never forget him In fact, he returned the following year to tell Moise he had stayed deep within his heart-but he was gone.

I recently helped Bobby launch his new book The Power of the Invisible Sun which features a photo of Moise, his ball, and kids from wartorn areas around the world. All of his earnings go towards the HOPE IS A GAME-CHANGER PROJECT for the kids he visited over the past decade. They caught the emotional landscape from heartbreak to joy, but share the undeniable longing for recovery and hope.

Bobby and I share the unchangeable belief that delivering hope is really a game-changer, especially to a child. We believe that each indestructible ball will come to represent a lasting symbol of hope. A light no matter how small-The Power of the Invisible Sun.

This holiday season, I ask you to think about whether you are doing enough to help someone else in the world. Or as Bobby likes to put it, consider "taking a concrete baby step", which added together, can create transformational change. It's my great hope that the HOPE IS A GAME-CHANGER PROJECT will change the lives of children the world over-one book, one ball at a time.

B. He felt sorry for Moise's ruined childhood.

Persons moving from a rural area to the big city may not realize that there are many methods of transportation available in the city. Many of them do not involve driving your own car.

One of the first methods of transportation that you will notice quickly is the bus service. Bus stops are located nearby many residential areas and buses travel toward a central transportation hub. If you work near downtown, it is often very easy to catch a bus that will take you to a location that is within a few blocks of your place of work. If there is not a bus stop near your home， look for a “park and ride” lot. Often you can park your vehicle there for free and take the bus. Using bus service helps to save fuel, the frustration of having to drive in rush hours and parking fees. A monthly bus pass often costs less than monthly parking fees.

Many larger cities also offer a subway system. This underground transportation system does not use surface streets, so it avoids traffic jams and can be a very quick way to commute (乘车上下班) to your business.

Cities such as Chicago have gone above grade with an elevated train rather than underground with a subway. Other cities have developed light rail systems to help with rapid transportation of commuters from the suburbs to the downtown area. In Seattle, and other cities that have a waterfront, ferries are a fun way to commute. The Bremerton to Seattle ferry is about an hour commute. Parking is available at the ferry terminal and on the Seattle end, the terminal is a flight of stairs from downtown.

Commuters who know big city transportation methods well will often combine two or more of these methods of commuting. You may need to take a bus from your residential area to the light rail station. Then transfer to the light rail for a quick trip downtown.

Using public transportation is a great way to avoid the frustration of driving yourself.

31. What is the advantage of using bus service?

A. The bus stop is located in every residential area.

B. The bus service can help you save fuel and parking fees.

C. Whenever you are, you can easily catch a bus that takes you anywhere.

32. The subway system can be a very quick way to take you to your business because________ .

A. it is underground and can avoid traffic jams

B. it uses surface streets

C. you can commute to your business

D. it is much faster than the bus service

33. How many methods of transportation are discussed in this passage?

A. 3. B. 4. C. 5. D. 6.

A. the bus service is the cheapest transportation metho
