赵梦红_02:51_专题组卷1、Students at St. Peter's Lutheran School are helping fight hunger in Guatemala by volunteering with Love the Hungry, a non-profit (非营利的) organization.The school's student body helped package 20,000 meals for the organization based in Louisville, Kentucky.St. Peter's Lutheran has worked with the organization over the last few years. But this year it provided more help by asking a larger part of its students to take part, said Scott Krueger, a parent of three daughters who attend the school.Students wearing gloves lined up on both sides of tables set up in the school's gym as part of the packaging step. The job required scooping (舀取) food such as rice and other food from a large box that were provided by Love the Hungry.Krueger, who also was volunteering for Love the Hungry, said he felt it was important for students to take part in it and see the importance of their work during the Sept. 13 event.“This is one way to try to give back,” Krueger said.Love the Hungry, which was created in 2012, gives great attention to packaging healthy meals that can prevent malnutrition (营养不良) in young children, said Dale Oelker, the director.Other than Guatemala, Love the Hungry also offers food to Nicaragua, El Salvador, Haiti and countries in West Africa such as Sierra Leone, Mali and Sudan.Fifth-grader Sydney Johnson was among the hundreds of students who helped and said she felt it was important to make a difference for the hungry people.“It makes me feel good how we all helped out,” Johnson said.Love the Hungry plans to offer 100,000 to 150,000 meals to Guatemala before the end of the year, Oelker said.“It's a part of the world that this type of meal can really help,” said Oelker. “We are glad to work with St. Peter's Lutheran School and it proves how volunteers of all ages can make a difference.”1.

Even now your aspirations(志向,抱负)may have changed from when you were in primary school.However, it se ems career options aren’t only based on personal taste. In a survey carried out by Teens, doctors, lawyers, and bankers were some of most popular careers that people said they hoped to follow. This is in line with a similar survey carried out in the UK in May 2011 by a job website, in which medicine was the top choice among UK teenagers aged between 13 and 17.Medicine and law are two of the oldest and best known professions. Their prestige (威望) may come from the fact that doctors and lawyers are much-respected members of society, and they make good money. What’s more, these professions are often seen as a sign of upper social class.It is equally unsurprising that banking is now one of the most common career choices. Youngsters worldwide think of banking to see the money rolling in. Wealth is increasingly becoming one of the most important indicators(标志) of a successful career. .However, not every child has the makings of a doctor, a lawyer, or a banker. They are those who see achievements and happiness in other areas. As the Teens’ survey discovered, a variety of unconventional jobs---a coffee shop owner, a gourmet(美食家), a waiter at a fast food restaurant---are among teenagers’ career choices. They can be equally interesting and rewarding jobs.With every choice come responsibility and challenge, and all career paths require specific education and training, so you have to learn to balance optimism(乐观主义)and confidence with being realistic about your particular talents and skills.1.What is the passage mainly about?A.The fact that the teenagers in the UK like doctors.B.The importance of choosing a good job.C.Careers in teenagers' mind.D.The fact that the choice of career needs challenge.2.What is the top career choice among UK teenagers aged between 13 and 17 according to the article?A.MedicinewC.Bankcation3.According to the article, all of the following are the benefits of being a doctor or a lawyer except _______.A.respect from othersB.high payC.status of upper social classD.the oldest profession4.According to the last two paragraphs, which of the following is TRUE?A.Careers such as gourmets and waiters are not as rewarding as doctors and lawyers.B.Specific education and training can help get a good job.C.Responsibility is the most important when you choose a good job.D.Optimism and confidence is more important than being realistic when choosing careers.3、I planned to spend a year between school and university ①__________ (travel) round the world.
