每空限填三词Doing "Clean "ExerciseWhen you go for a run outside, chances are that you'll find litter all around you. Do you just go past it, or do you stop and pick it up? If you choose the second, you're part of the latest popular sport in the West: plogging. The word “logging”is the Swedish phrase“plocka upp”（pick up）and the English word ”Jogging”(running slowly)put together.What a plogger needs is a rubbish bag and a pair of gloves to protect your hands. While collecting rubbish, loggers learn to classify (分类)and deal with it correctly, too.Plogging seems simple but it does a lot of good to both the environment and your health. It can not only make the world greener, but also get you full body exercise, For example, a 30-minute logging burns around 288 calories（卡路里），compared to 235 calories burnedfrom just jogging.So next time you go out jogging, why not carry a rubbish bag and collect some litter along the way? Your body and the environment will thank you.Let’s go___56___!The latest popular sport!Just need___57___and a pair of gloves!Correctly classify and ____58____ the rubbish!It's simple but helpful to ___59___ and your body!

（英语）中考英语试卷分类汇编英语阅读理解(及答案)含解析一、阅读理解1．阅读理解"Without music, life would be a mistake, "famous German philosopher（哲学家）Friedrich Nietzsche said over a century ago. Music is a big part of our lives. But in recent years, some American schools have cut music classes to control budgets（预算）.For example, Chicago public schools hurt arts education when it fired over 1, 000 teachers. Among them, 10 percent of the teachers taught art or music, according to The Washington Times.In fact, this is not just a problem in the US. In other countries, such as China and the UK, music classes are not thought to be as important as ones like science, math and history. That's partly because music is not seen as a very important life skill, and it isn't tested. Many students are busy with schoolwork, so parents and students choose to focus on subjects that are tested more often.However, learning music is beneficial（有益的）in many ways.When playing music, you need different abilities to work together. It is not as simple as it looks, according to Kenneth K. Guilmartin of Music Together, an early childhood music development program. For example, when playing the piano, people see music notes and decode（解码）them in their brains. They also use their fingers to make sounds. You need to deal with all these things at the same time.Music has a special connection with science as well. You can see that many scientists are good at playing music：Einstein played the violin and German physicist Max Planck was talented in playing the piano.（1）Some schools in the US cut music classes, because ____.A. they were too difficult to learnB. students in the US weren't interested in musicC. the schools wanted to control budgetsD. there weren't enough music teachers in the US （2）In Paragraph 2, what does the underlined word "them" refer to（指代）?A. Students in Chicago.B. Public schools.C. Parents in Chicago.D. Fired teachers.（3）How many scientists who are good at playing music are mentioned in this passage? A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four.（4）What's the writer's opinion according to this passage?A. Music is as simple as it looks.B. Music classes should be cut in some schools.C. Music is a big part of our lives.D. Music isn't a very important life skill for us.【答案】（1）C（2）D（3）B（4）C【解析】【分析】本文介绍了很多地区削减了音乐课以控制预算，这是不合适的，因为音乐在许多方面都是有益的。

专项训练四哲理故事时间：8～10分钟/篇分值：2分/小题Passage 1(2018福州)Once upon a time, a hippo(河马) lived in a river next to a big tree.One day, a bird came and nested(筑巢) in the tree. The songs of the bird filled the hippo with so much envy(羡慕) that he couldn't think of anything else. Every day he would think why he wasn't born to be a bird even though the bird told him many times he was so lucky to be so big and such a good swimmer.Finally, the hippo made up his mind that he would come out of the river, climb the tree, and start singing. However, when he tried to climb the tree, it was very clear that the hippo didn't have wings, nor claws to climb with.Realizing that he would never climb up the tree, he angrily hit the tree until it came crashing to the ground. Then he stepped onto the leaves of the fallen tree, and began singing.Unfortunately, hippos can't sing, either. All that came from his mouth were terrible noises, and when the other animals heard this, they all came around to make fun of the hippo.He was so ashamed by this. He also felt bad about having knocked the tree over. He used all his strength to raise the tree back up again, and look after it until it completely recovered(康复)．( )1. The hippo envied the bird because ________．A. he could fly highB. he could build a nestC. he could sing wellD. he could live in the tree( )2. After reading this passage, we know ________．A. the writer is telling us a true storyB. the story happened on an autumn dayC. the bird thought he was luckier than the hippoD. the hippo tried to do something against his nature( )3. The hippo in this story ________．A. was happy all the timeB. did not respect his friendsC. liked to talk a lot but did nothingD. corrected his mistake when he realized it( )4. From the passage, we can infer(推断) that the hippo would ________ after such an experience.A. be a good singerB. be good at climbing treesC. stop envying the birdD. not make friends with other animals( )5. The best title of this passage may be “________”．A. The hippo that wished to singB. The tree that was knocked overC. The bird that wished to swimD. The animals that were in high spiritsPassage 2(2018泉州)There were three big fish in the lake. One of them, Demo, was wise; another one, Jimmy, was half­wise; Martin, the third one, was stupid.Some fishermen came to the bank of the lake with their nets. The three fish saw them.Demo decided at once to leave, to make the long and difficult trip to the ocean. He thought, “I won't discuss with these two about this. They love this place so much that they call it home and will stay on. How silly they are! They still haven't realized we are in great danger now. Their ignorancewill cost them their lives.”Seeing the wise fish had left, Jimmy thought，“My guide has gone and now I've lost my chance to escape.”He felt sorry for it and then thought, “What can I do to save myself from these men and their nets? Perhaps I should pretend(假装) to be already dead, giving myself totally to the water.”So he did that. He went up and down with the water, helpless, within arm's reach of the fishermen.“Look at this! The best and biggest fish is dead.”One of the men lifted him by the tail, and threw him up on the ground. He rolled(滚动) over and over and moved secretly toward the water, and then, back in.The third fish was aimlessly jumping about, trying to escape with his speed and cleverness. The net, of course, finally closed around him, and as he lay in the hot frying­pan bed, he thought, “If I get out of this, I'll never live again in the limits of the lake. Next time, the ocean! I'll make it my home.”( )1. The passage is a ________．A. diaryB. storyC. notice( )2. The underlined word “ignorance”in the passage means “________”in Chinese.A. 冲动B. 勇气C. 愚昧( )3. Jimmy thought that he could escape from the fishermen by ________．A. traveling to the oceanB. pretending to be deadC. jumping here and there( )4. Who was caught by the fishermen at last?A. Demo.B. Jimmy.C. Martin.( )5. What can we learn from the passage?A. It is important to make proper changes in time.B. Good chances are always given to the honest.C. The stupid can also succeed with great efforts.Passage 3(2018西宁)Sometimes people come into your life and you know at once that they were sure to be there. They serve some certain purpose, teach you a lesson or help find out who you are or who you want to become. You never know who these people may be: your classmate, neighbor, teacher, long­lost friend or even a real stranger. But you know that every moment they will influence your life in some serious way.Sometimes things happen to you. At the time they may seem terrible, painful and unfair. But later you realize that without overcoming those difficulties, you would have never realized your further ability and advantages. Everything happens for a reason and nothing happens by chance or with good or bad luck.The people you meet influence your life, and the success and failure you experience create who you are. Even the bad experience can be learned from. In fact, they are probably the most poignant and important ones.Enjoy every day even every moment and take from it everything that you possibly can, for you may never be able to experience it again. Talk to people whom you have never talked to before, and really listen. You should set your goals high, hold your head up, tell yourself you are a great one and believe in yourself.You can make your life anything you wish. Create your own life and then go out and live it.( )1. The people we meet ________．A. all know where to find usB. serve us on no purposeC. won't become our neighborD. will change us in some way( )2. From the passage, we know that bad things can make us ________．A. realize our further abilityB. terribly meet bad luckC. find no serious successD. possibly enjoy every moment( )3. The underlined word “poignant”in the passage means “________”in Chinese.A. 平淡的B. 明显的C. 深刻的D. 艰苦的( )4. The writer's advice is that we should ________．A. never talk to strange peopleB. learn as much as we can each dayC. overcome difficulties painfullyD. not believe in ourselves but others( )5. Which is the best title for the passage?A. Create Your Own LifeB. Hold Your Head UpC. People You Meet in LifeD. Things Happen to You, 小词典)1. hippo n. 河马2. nest v．筑巢3. envy v. 羡慕4. recover v. 康复5. pretend v. 假装6. roll v. 滚动专项训练四哲理故事Passage 1【主旨大意】本文是一篇记叙文。

2018年中考英语热点专题突破训练：任务型阅读（一）（2017年齐齐哈尔）A little stream(小溪) ran down from a high mountain through many villages and forests.Then it reached a desert. “I went through so many difficulties. I should have no problem crossing the desert,” she thought. As she started, she found herself slowly vanishing(消失)into the sand. After many tries, she still failed. “Maybe I can’t reach the ocean,” she said sadly to herself.At this time, a deep voice said, “If wind can cross the desert, so can a river.” It wa s the voice of the desert. But the little stream answered, “That’s because the wind can fly, but I can not.”“That’s because you can’t give up what you are. Let yourself evaporate(蒸发)into the wind and it can take you across me,” said the desert. “Give up what I am now? No! No!” The little stream could not accept this idea. “The wind can carry the vapor(蒸汽)across the desert and let it leave as rain. The rain will form a river again,” said the desert. “And whether you’re a river or vapor, your nature ne ver changes.” After hearing this, the little stream went into the open arms of the wind. It carried her to the next stage of her life.The course of our lives is like the experience of the little stream.

专项训练七　节假日活动时间：8～10分钟/篇 分值：2分/小题Passage 1(2018福州)In Britain, Boxing Day is usually celebrated on December 26th, which is the following day after Christmas Day. However, strictly speaking, Boxing Day is the first weekday after Christmas. Like Christmas Day, Boxing Day is a public holiday. This means it's a non­working day in the whole of Britain. When Boxing Day falls on a Saturday or Sunday, the following Monday is the public holiday.The exact origin(起源) of the holiday is unclear. One of the thoughts is that during the Middle Ages, when great sailing ships were setting off to discover new land, a Christmas Box was placed by a priest (神父) on each ship. Those sailors who wanted to ensure a safe return would drop money into the box. It was sealed_up and kept on board until the ship came home safely. Then the box was handed over to the priest in the exchange for the saying of a Mass of thanks for the success of the sailing. The priest wouldn't open it to share the contents with the poor until Christmas.One more thought is about the “Alms Box” placed in every church on Christmas Day. Worshippers (做礼拜的人) put gifts for the poor into it. These boxes were always opened the day after Christmas, that is why that day became known as Boxing Day.Today, many businesses, organizations and families try to keep the traditional spirit of Boxing Day alive by donating (捐赠) their time, services and money to aid Food Banks, providing gifts for the poor, or helping families in need.

At the moment we're staying near Uluru—that's the aboriginal(土著) name for Ayers Rock. On the first day, we took a balloon tour over the rock, and I was surprised at how big it was: 3.6 kilometers long and 384 meters high. The colors of the rock are fantastic, and at different times of the day, they change from purple to red. The Aborigines are the first people of Australia, and the ancient aboriginal stories describe the spirits that created the world. Uluru is a center of Aboriginal culture.The Australians have many British relatives. That's why they're like us in many ways. Their family life is similar to ours, and they enjoy the same food and hobbies. The food and drink that most Australians like are grapes, lamb, ham and especially wine that they make in the south of the country. They love all sports, but football is the most popular. Most Australians live near the coast, so they also love going to the beach, swimming and surfing.Although it's December, it's summer over here. The sunshine is very bright, and near the coast the countryside is very green. There are lots of sheep in the fields and on the hills, but the outback(澳洲内陆) is more like a desert, full of rocks and sand.The next day after we arrived at Uluru, we went on a camel(骆驼) ride. The camel that I rode had a bad temper. When I sat on its back, it became very angry and refused me. So everyone else thought it was very funny that my camel kept lying down...Finally, later this evening, we're taking the plane back to Sydney and coming home, it's been a fantastic trip!Tony( )1.

It's a good chance to work on different activities that you don't have much time to do during the rest of the year.We asked about 2，000 people what they would do during the summer vacation. Most of the survey­takers agreed that the summer vacation was a break from homework and they could relax.Alexis said, “At school, I'm really tired, so during the summer vacation I can read books and do many outdoor activities.”Amy is in high school. After school, she sometimes works in a cafe. She told us, “It's a chance to relax after a hard school year—sleep more, and see my friends more.”We also asked them if they would be too busy or kind of bored. About half (52%) of the survey­takers said they would be busy during the summer vacation but still have time to relax. And that is exactly how it should be.But not everyone said their summer vacation would be the right balance (平衡) between being busy and relaxing. Many thought that they would be too bored.How bored or busy people feel during the summer vacation depends on how old they are. Survey­takers in their early teens were more likely (可能的) to be bored. Among them, 40% said they would be bored and only 10% thought they would be too busy.( )1.

阅读理解（一）（2017年荆州中考）APeople in Los Angeles are known for their love of cars. The city is very large, and its public transportation is slow. So people drive everywhere. But now, a group of bicyclists are trying to get people out of their cars and on bikes.Devon Fitzgerald says he has to be careful when he rides his bike in the streets. “A lot of people are in a rush, and it's very difficult to keep careful, for they would rather care for their speed than your safety.” Although riding a bike to work can be dangerous, he prefers it to a car. “It's much simpler than driving a car. For example, I don't have to worry about parking.”Roger Rosas drives to work. "You always have to make sure you look to the other side because someone would rush across by bike. Or you can easily get into an accident. "To make bicycling safer, some people who live and work near each other are riding to work together, which they call a "bike train". Nona Varnado helped create the group L. A. Bike Trains. "You're in a big group. If you're afraid of riding alone, you can now ride with experienced riders.

Roger Rosas prefers riding a bike to driving a carD. people can easily get into an accident when riding togetherBI still remembered my first day of second grade. I was led to a room. No teacher yet. Girls talking. Boys trying to kill each other.I took some paper and a pencil, picked a desk, and went to work. Minutes later, a girl came over and sat on top of my desk.“What're you doing?” she said.“Writing to 100,” I replied.“Is that you can do?”“No,” I said.Then I rose from my seat to get my pencil sharpener. I had no idea that when I stood, the desk would fall over and hurt her leg.Her name was Jane. From that day on--she was my best friend. Wherever we went--to school or church or basketball games, Jane saved me a seat or I saved one for her.Many years later, after college, I moved to California and married. Jane stayed in our hometown to be a social worker. We were friends for more than 50 years. After her death seven years ago, I still think of her often, especially at the start of the school year.TV ads try to tell us what children need for school—new shoes, clothes, backpacks. But really, children's needs are simple. Besides the basics—to be fed, cared for, and loved—they need the gift of friendship.For years, I feared how people saw me. But one day, I finally understood. I didn't need to be smart or pretty or popular. I just needed to be kind.My grandson Henry recently finished his preschool and received a priz e for “Friendship”. Even an Olympic medal wouldn't make me prouder! I think children need to know that they are loved. They need to know that they have all they need and the best way to win friends is to be one.5. When she came into the classroom, the writer ________.A. went to talk with Jane quicklyB. helped Jane write the numbers to 100C. worked quietly at her desk aloneD. was afraid that others would fight with her6.

Henry received a prize for "Friendship" probably because _________.A. he was kind to othersB. he was smart at his schoolworkC. he was loved by his grandmaD. he joined in the Olympics8.The best title of this article would be__________.A. My Best Friend JaneB. How to Choose FriendsC. My First Day at SchoolD. Friendship ValuesCThe winter of 1948 was very difficult for our family of eight living in Knoxvile, Tennessee. Unfortunately, Dad became ill and soon was out of a job. I was only 8 years old and my younger brother, Buddy was 7. After school we went to pick coal(煤) that fell from the coal train along the railroad near our home. When the train slowed down, we ran alongside it. After the train passed, we picked up the fallen coal.One day, the train stopped for a short time unusually. My brother and I were digging around in the snow when the train's fireman came to the window and shouted to us, “Why are you boys digging in the snow? Are you looking for gold?” he laughed.“No, sir,” I replied, “We are finding coal.”“Why doesn't your daddy buy coal? It's really dangerous here.”“Our daddy is very sick and we have no money to buy food and coal,” I answered.The fireman turned and went inside. After a moment, he shouted again. “Hey! Bring that coal bucket(桶子) here. I got something for you.” Then the fireman filled our bucket with clean coal. We were happy with his gift, and we knew we could go home early that day.He smiled the kindest and warmest smile I had ever seen. “You two boys come here the day after tomorrow and I'll throw off some coal.”Two days later, Buddy and I stood by the railroads as the train slowed down. The fireman waved to us, then disappeared. Suddenly, some coal and a piece of red cloth came out. In the red cloth were two pieces of bubble gum(泡泡糖) and a new one-dollar bill.All that winter, three days a week, we received a bucket of coal, a gift and, sometimes, money.I never knew the person's full name, but to our family, he was a guardian angel.9. The winter was very difficult for the family because____________.A. the weather was colder than everB. they couldn't afford food or coalC. the writer's father was paid a littleD. they couldn't get help from the government10.

The writer wrote the story mainly to____________.A. tell us to be hopeful in times of difficulty, no matter how bad it isB. remember a difficult time during his childhoodC. show a little kindness can make a great difference to people in needD. show how he and his brother helped his family out（二）（2017年襄阳中考）Dear Sir or Madam.One of the teachers at my school in New York tells me that your school has summer course.

In exchange, they get some money or other computer time.Paying kids for housework is one of the most popular topics, especially at a time when everyone is more careful about money. Some parents think since adults are paid to do their jobs, we should pay kids for everyday housework.But some people don't think kids should get rewards(报酬) for doing housework. Susie Walton, an expert, believe that by rewarding kids, parents are sending a message that work isn't worth doing unless you get something in return. “Running any kind of housework is a team effort,” Walton said. “A home is a living space for everyone in the family. It's important for kids to see that we all have responsibilities in the house, and families decide how they want their home to look, and how they are going to keep it looking like what they want.”Other people believe that getting a reward encourages kids to do housework, and it also teaches them real world lessons about how we need to work to get money. There are also apps(程序) that gives kids points and digital gifts that can be redeemed(兑现) either online or in the real world. “Our goal is to give kids lawful power so they can get rewards,” says Chris Bergman. “And kids need rewards to help encourage them. ”6. Which of the following housework is NOT mentioned in Paragraph 1?A. Washing the dishes.B. Cooking meals.C. Folding the clothes.D. Making the bed.7. The underlined phrase “in return” in Paragraph 3 has the same meaning as “_____”.A. as a rewardB. for punishmentC. on saleD. under control8. What's Walton's idea in the passage?A. Running exercise is a kind of team work.B. People work to get some rewards.C. Kids have responsibilities in the house.D. Doing the housework in only the parents' job.9. According to Chris Bergman, kids should be encouraged to ______.A. do housework without rewardsB. do more houseworkC. stay away from houseworkD. do housework by getting rewards10. Which is the best title for the passage?A. Kids Should Study as Well as Doing HouseworkB. Let Children Do Some HouseworkC. Should Kids Be Rewarded for Doing HouseworkD. Doing Housework Is Good for Children's StudyCLast summer I went to one of the world's most famous historical places, the Forbidden City in Beijng, China. It was the home of the emperors of the last two dynasties (朝代) in China, the Ming and Qing Dynasties.The Forbidden City was built in 1420. The palace has over 10,000 rooms. It was where the emperors dealt with the official business with their ministers.In Mandarin, The Forbidden City is called the Purple Forbidden City. However, the color of the palace itself is not purple. The color purple stands for power of the great emperors of China. It was so sacred(神圣的) that the commoners could not even dream of ever going in.The emperors also had some of the largest festival celebrations at the Forbidden City. During Chinese New Year, the emperor would invite all the members of his family and his officials to a banquet. The banquet had a hundred and eight Chinese dishes. It was such an expensive banquet that it could feed a commoner's family for three generations(代).Right now The Forbidden City is known as a historical site for tourists from all over the world. Everyone can go in there. It is a museum with priceless Chinese antiques (古董) and treasures in it.I really learned a lot about the Chinese culture and its history from this trip to The Forbidden City. It was like a dream come true to go on the trip and see the things that I have always wanted to see.11. How long is the history of the Forbidden City?A. About 600 years.B.

Not only is she a high school student, but she has also set up her own organization, Beary Merry Christmas. She volunteers（自愿）to serve poor kids and families in Orange Country in California, US.To remember her best friend who died of cancer nearly 10 years ago, Fredette decided to serve those in Orange Country who are less lucky than she is.She began with the simple idea of collecting donated(捐赠的)Build-A-Bears,the popular toy animal that is made by children themselves in the stores' workshops. Fredette then gave them as gifts to the homeless children in California during the holiday season.With donations at more than 100 bears a year, Fredette and volunteers host activities every year, where volunteers not only give out the bears, but also clothing, meals, and other things.Not wanting to limit（限制）the giving to just the holiday months, Fredette now hosts other activities for Valentine's Day, Mother's Day and Halloween, providing the chance for her volunteerteam to make a difference through the year.“I love making relationships with the people I serve,” Fredette said. “The thanks they have, hearing their stories and seeing how happy they are, it's so cool.”Future plans for Fredette include building a public food bank and providing aself-development class for students in her school who will soon attend college.Heading to college herself in the fall, Fredette is looking to stay local and continue to help out in her hometown. In fact, she was regarded as a “Dreamer & Doer” not long ago for her work in improving her community, along with 32 other high school students.4.

It can be inferred（推断）that Fredette .A. likes telling people storiesB. dreams of being a teacherC. is pleased with what she doesD. plans to leave California for college7. What can be the best title for the passage?A. Giving back to societyB. Getting on well with othersC. Providing a food bankD. Improving community collegesCMore Chinese universities are opening their libraries to the public, allowing people to enjoy reading during normal time and the vacations.But for some students, including Wang Ling, 21, in Sun Yat-sen University, this practice has caused headaches. “Members of the public come to our libraries more for sightseeing than reading,” said Wang.“They sometimes even bring their kids along, and take photos as if it were a place of interest.”Wang has found it hard to get a seat during busy times. Being short of space is a common problem for university libraries in China.However, this is not the only reason why students dislike their libraries being open to members of the public. They fear that the quietness of the libraries will be influenced because of visitors' rude behavior.Chen Jie, 18, a student in Tongji University, is one who would be against opening to the public. “I hav e been to a public library before. People were chatting loudly or speaking on cell phone so you can hardly read,” Chen said. She notices teachers doing serious reading and feels their concentration（专注）has influenced her. “If too many strangers stay here, t he whole library will be a noisy place and it's difficult for us to study quietly,” she said.Will there be alternative（可替代的）ways to share those libraries? Some experts consider that university libraries can prevent the public from entering certain areas. “We might keep magazines for academic research only for teachers and students,” said Zhu Lina, library director in Jinan University.Working together with the community library is another solution. “It's possible that a member of the public can order a bo ok in our library over the Internet,” Ge Jianxiong, the library director in Fudan University said. “We'll send it to a public libraries close to their home.”8. We can see from the passage that Wang Ling .A. hates to study in the libraryB. prefers sightseeing to readingC. feels good to play with kidsD. is a university student aged 219. In Chen Jie's opinion, visitors to university libraries may .A. take up too much spaceB. break the peace thereC. make teachers relaxedD. get students to read more10. The writer mentions two libraries directors' words to help explain how to .A. manage libraries onlineB. keep the public politeC. share university librariesD. do scientific research11. Where is the passage most probably taken from?A. A newspaper.B. A library guide.C. A story book.D. A notice board.DHave you ever seen a car without a driver? It sounds crazy, but these computer-driven driverless cars will soon be filling roads near you. Companies like Google and Tesla have been designing and testing these cars, and the technology is there.So how? The cars have sensors（感应器）all around which can find other cars and objects in the road. Road signs are read by cameras, and satellite navigation systems（卫星导航系统）are used so the car knows how to get where you want to go. All you have to do is type in the address! Finally, a central computer system takes in all the information that it receives from the sensors and cameras and works out when to speed up, stop and turn.Sound like your idea of heaven（天堂）? Sitting back, looking out of the windows and even watching a film or reading a book while ‘driving' would be possible with this new technology. You wouldn't have to worry about remembering directions to where you're going. In addition, computers would also drive more safely than people — they would obey the rules and have quicker action times when in dangerous situations.However, there are many drawbacks of driverless cars. Computers would have difficulties making ethical（道德的）decisions: if a child ran into the road, would the computer choose to hit the child or turn suddenly and potentially kill the car's passengers? Moreover, I personally find driving fun –I'd miss never driving a car myself. There would also be many other decisions to be made –should children, or drunk people, be allowed in a driverless car by themselves? Or would there need to be a person with a driving license in the car at all times?I'm not certain I'd want a driverless car – but it's only a matter of time before they'll become more affordable and popular on our roads.12.

A group of children were waiting for us. A boy walked toward me. He held my hands and pulled me to the ground. I kissed the earth and tasted nature.I could not understand what he was doing at first, then I was very angry. Though I was very angry, I controlled my anger.A teacher stopped this awkward（尴尬的）sil ence when she shouted at the boy. “What are you doing right here, right now?” she said. “You will never see your mom again if you keep doing this. Now, say sorry!” “Sorry,” he cried fearfully and nervously. I said nothing, but I realized something about t his child. After lunch I asked the teacher for information about the child's parents.She said that the child was very different from other students because of an illness. His family could not afford to treat him. He needed the kindness of his family, but they had abandoned him. So he depended on the support from the teachers and community service workers like us.I suddenly realized I could answer the question my friend asked me at the beginning of the day.Community service workers help others and make everyone feel better.
