12．Jose Alberto Gutierrez's life would never be the same again after finding a copy of Anna Karenina in the trash（垃圾） 20 years ago.It happened while he was driving his garbage truck through wealthier neighbourhoods and seeing books abandoned by the rich.It ignited his desire to start rescuing books from the trash.Eventually，he turned his book collection into a community library.
In Colombia's capital city of Bogota，libraries tend to be far away from poorer communities.The option of buying new books is non-existent for poor families and having access to a library of books is a luxury.Gutierrez grew up poor，and his family could not afford to educate him beyond primary school.Nevertheless，his mother was a passionate reader and read stories to him every night.Her love for books left a deep impression on Gutierrez，who never let a lack of formal education stop him.
Today，his community library， "The Strength of Words"，occupies most of his home and is piled from floor to ceiling with fiction and non-fiction titles.Everything from school textbooks to storybooks can be found in his collection of over 20，000 books!
The Strength of Words library is open every weekend，and children in Gutierrez's neighbourhood are allowed to look through the book collection.Adults are also welcome to expand their vision and develop new skills for a better life.
Today，the Gutierrez family doesn't merely want to start libraries in neighbourhoods.They want to create more safe spaces for school children to spend their time reading.This is important for kids living in Bogota where many young people waste time in the streets.
Gutierrez's journey to give treasure back to his local community is an amazing example of how every one of us can improve the lives of those around us by identifying needs，investing time and finding a simple solution.How might we take a leaf out of Guticrrez's book？
（1）What does the underlined word "ignited" mean in paragraph 1？
A．Satisfied.
B．Ignored.
C．Excited.
D．Expressed.
（2）What do we know about Gutierrez's library？
A．It aims to recycle and reuse the garbage.
B．It is sponsored by wealthier communities.
C．It is in the charge of his passionate mother.
D．It makes knowledge accessible to poor kids.
（3）What message does the last sentence convey？

D．We can donate deserted books to Gutierrez's library.
（4）Which of the following is a suitable title for the text？

D．The Strength of Reading.组卷：11引用：5难度：0.7 -
13．The world has been witnessing a growing number of countries where people from around the globe live together and communicate with each other，with various customs and beliefs coexisting.America and Singapore are typical examples.Distinct cultures merge （融入） into a common cultural context for mankind.That's why many feel as if people are living in a multi-
cultural age.
Culture shapes identity and influences behaviors，and cultural diversity makes one accept，or to some extent，even integrate and assimilate （同化） into other cultures.To adapt to a diverse cultural community，the fundamental thing is to be aware that there are different cultures apart from one's own.Take a positive view of different cultures，and we can broaden our horizons. Sometimes a person may not know much about geography or history，but by mixing with people from other cultures，they may have the opportunity to learn about different countries.
For those who want to learn but do not know where to start，a great point is to pick up a book about another culture they are interested in，or do some online research on reputable International websites.The best way to learn，though，is through face-to-face interaction with people from other cultures.One more way to start learning about new cultures is simply tasting the food from different cultures，since food can also be an aspect of cultural diversity.
Understanding diversity is important for us adults.It's the same for our children too，especially for those who live in culturally diverse cities such as Los Angeles，Shanghai，or Hong Kong.If our children are not aware of diversity，then they become close-minded.This can lead to troubles at school and even lead to bullying.Show them how diverse the world is.Help them be more open-minded toward people of different races，cultures，and countries.
In today's world，if everyone is able to know about other cultures，and respect other values，life will be easier.
（1）What do America and Singapore have in common according to the text？
A．They are of a size.
B．They have similar population.
C．They are countries with growing population.
D．They are countries with people gathering from around the world.
（2）What's the writer's purpose of using the underlined sentence？
A．To stress the importance of taking a positive view of different cultures.
B．To attach the importance of learning about geography and history.
C．To emphasize that broadening our horizons is a must.
D．To show that we have broadened horizons.
（3）Which of the following is not the way to learn about new cultures？
A．Tasting food from different cultures.
B．Doing online research about other cultures.
C．Reading books about one's own culture.
D．Interacting with foreigners face-to-face.
（4）Who are the article intended for？
A．Grown-ups.
B．Teenagers.
C．Teachers.
D．Travelers.组卷：1引用：1难度：0.5 -
14．All over the world，your chances of success in school and life depend more on your family circumstances than on any other factor.By age three，kids with professional parents are already a full year ahead of their poorer peers.They know twice as many words and score 40 points higher on IQ tests.By age 10，the gap is three years.By then，some poor children have not mastered basic reading and math skills，and many never will：this is the age at which failure starts to become irreversible.
A few school systems seem to have figured out how to erase these gaps.Finland ensures that every child completes basic education and meets a rigorous （严格的） standard.One Finnish district official，asked about the number of children who don't complete school in her city，replied， "I can tell you their names if you want." In the US，KIPP charter schools enroll students from the poorest families and ensure that almost every one of them graduates high school---80 percent make it to college.Singapore narrowed its achievement gap among ethnic minorities from 17 percent to 5 percent over 20 years.
These success stories offer lessons for the rest of us.First，get children into school early.High-quality pre-schooling does more for a child's chances in school and life than any other educational intervention.One study，which began in the 1960s，tracked two groups of students from disadvantaged backgrounds.Some were given the opportunity to attend a high-quality pre-school；others were not.Thirty-five years later，the kids who went to pre-school earned more，had better jobs，and were less likely to have been in prison or divorced.
Second，recognize that the average kid spends about half his waking hours until the age of 18 outside of school---don't ignore that time.KIPP students spend 60 percent more time in school than the average American students.They arrived earlier，leave later，attend more regularly，and even go to school every other Saturday.Similarly，in 1996，Chile extended its school day to add the equivalent of more than two more years of schooling.
Third，pour lots of efforts to train teachers.Studies in the US have shown that kids with the most effective teachers learn three times as much as those with the least effective.Systems such as Singapore's are choosy about recruiting；they invest in training and continuing education；they evaluate teachers regularly，and they award bonuses （奖金） only to the top performers.
Finally，recognize the value of individualized attention.In Finland，kids who start to struggle receive one-on-one support from their teachers.Roughly one in three Finnish students also gets extra help from a tutor each year.If we can learn the lesson of what works，we can build on it.
（1）The underlined word "irreversible" in Para.1 is closest in meaning to.
A．applicable
B．considerable
C．flexible
D．unchangeable
（2）What can we infer from the Finnish district officials' reply in Para.2？
A．She expressed a desire to show off her good memory.
B．She is willing to offer the information at any time.
C．Her job requires her to remember all the students' names.
D．The basic education is paid much attention to in Finland.
（3）The most important educational factor for a child to achieve success in school and life is to.
A．prolong his or her learning time in school
B．receive a good and early pre-schooling
C．get instruction from more excellent teachers
D．get person to person help from the teachers
（4）What does the passage mainly discuss？
A．The importance of family economic conditions to kids' success in study and life.
B．The achievement gap between children from wealthy families and poorer ones.
C．How to narrow the achievement gap between kids from different family backgrounds.
D．Some countries have achieved success in erasing the gap between children completely.组卷：0引用：2难度：0.5
