| When I was in the seventh grade, I was a candy striper(义I) at a local hospital in my town. I 1 about thirty to forty hours a week during the summer. Most of the time I spent there 2 with Mr Cillespie. He never had any 3 , and nobody seemed to care about his 4 . I spent many days there _ 5 his hand and talking to him, helping with 6 that needed to be done. He became a close friend of mine, 7 he responded with only an occasional 8 of my hand. Mr Gillespie was m a coma(昏迷). I left for a week to 9 with my parents, and when I came back, Mr Gillespie was gone. I didn't have the 10 to ask any of the nurses where he was, 11 fear they might tell me he had died. So with many 12 unanswered, I continued to volunteer there through my eighth-grade year. 13 years later, when I was a junior in high school, I was at the gas station when I noticed a 14 face. When I realized who it was, my eyes were filled with tears. He was 15 ! I asked if he was Mr Gillespie. With an 16 look on his face, he replied yes. I explained how I knew him and that I had spent many hours talking with him in the hospital. Tears 17 up in his eyes, and he gave me the warmest bug I had ever 18 . Then he told me about his life and what 19 of him to put him in the coma. We cried for a while and exchanged a bug, said our goodbyes and went our 20 ways. | ||||

| You feel happiest when you create a healthy balance between giving and receiving. If you give and give without making time to fill your own needs, then it's likely you will bum out, or feel upset. When you take and take without giving anything back, you never feel fulfilled, so you are always searching for ways to fill the void in your life. The way to create a healthy balance between giving and receiving is to know and then live by your values. I break values up into two groups which I call being and having values. Your being values are the character traits (特点 ;特征) of the ideal person you would like to be. I suggest to my clients that they choose three being values that they are willing to make a commitment(信奉; 信仰) to live by. An example of some being values are: kind ,loving, generous , inspirational, peaceful, wise and even powerful. By acting on these values you give to others through your actions and you inspire others by being a positive role model. Mastering being these character traits becomes your life purpose. Your having values are, the feelings you need to create in order to be happy. These could be companionship , achievement , support , being valued or financial security. This is what you receive. You take responsibility for filling your own needs by taking steps to create these feelings and conditions in your life. When you make a commitment to live by your being values, it becomes easier to make conscious choices rather than reactionary ones. If your usual pattem is to talk about your problems, you could choose to think and act like a calm person. A calm person might go for a walk, meditate (沉思 ) ,or set a time limit before responding. If your usual pattern is to worry, you could choose to act like a responsible or wise person. In other words, you would act like the person you choose to be this is the key to personal power. When you choose to act on your values, you not only feel good about yourself, you reinforce (加强) your chosen beliefs. Over time acting in this way changes how you see the world, and in turn the way other people think of you. |
| 1. The main purpose of this passage is to . |
| A. persuade the readers to make a commitment B. explain to the readers what personal values are C.inform the readers how to be truly happy D. instruct the readers how to make wise choices |
| 2. According to the text, living by your being values, you would . |
| A. gain a lot of power B. form positive personality C. seek all human virtues D. fill your own needs |
| 3.The underlined word "void" in paragraph I means " ." |
| A. a feeling of emptiness B. an absence of one's mind C. a break of continuity D. a state of confusion |
| 4. What can be inferred from the text? |
| A. Having values are better than being values; B. A calm person does not choose to complain. C.The way other people think of you decides who you are. D. A responsible person does not care about financial security. |
| Crossroads International How does Crossroads work? Crossroads is a resource network. We take goods Hong Kong doesn't want and give them to people who badly need them. We collect those goods and give them out in the welfare arena(福利院) in Hong Kong, Mainland China, elsewhere in Asia, Eastern Europe and Africa. So Crossroads is just that a Crossroads between need and resource. Who do we help? The welfare agencies we help do not run on large budgets(预算). They are grass-root groups who have seen a need and tried to meet it. They can't get the job done without backup, though, so our task is to help them do their task. Our warehouse is full of goods, from computers to high chairs, clothing to books, stationery to medical provision, cupboards to dining sets. They send us a list of their needs and we try to match it with the resource we have in stock. How do we operate? Crossroads itself also operates on a low budget. We do not buy the goods we send. They are donated(捐赠) . Similarly, rather than raising funds for freight(贷运) ,we ask transport companies to donate their services. Nobody in our organization receives a salary. Even our full time staff work on a voluntary basis. Those that donate goods and services: · Factories · Manufacturers · Hospitals · Hotels · Educational Institutions · Householders · Transport Companies · Offices · Other Charities One resource that we are always in need of is people. While we receive large quantities of goods and there is never a short supply of requests for them, we are always in need of hands to help sort and prepare them for shipping. What can we do? We are always in need of people. We have a lot of tasks. If you are volunteering regularly, we can offer work in some of the following categories, some of the time. You are welcome to number your top three choices and we will do our best to accommodate(提供) them. · Clothing Categorization · Sewing · Toy Categorization · Furniture Handing · Book Categorization · Driving · Household Goods Categorization · Office Work · Electrical Goods Categorization · Book Keeping · Stationery Categorization · Fund-raising · Medical Categorization Where to find us? All volunteer work is done at our warehouse: Located in Basement Zone M of the Kai Tak Government Building Our warehouse hours: Tues. -Sat 10:00 am－5 :30 pm Postal Address: 16 Man Tong, Silvermine Bay,Lantau Island, Hong Kong Office details: Tel: 2984 9309 ,2740 9657 Fax: 2984 7452 Email:106122 ,2524@ compuserve. com |

More than 2 million elderly people are expected to be living alone, with no family, by the end of the next ten years. It does not have to cost a fortune to make a real difference.

They include recycling books, using energy saving light bulbs (灯炮) and " reverse haggling" in charity shops-paying more than the asking price. They may seem small but they are by no means in significant(无意义的). Metro has joined forces with We Are What We Do, a branch of the Community Links charity. From Monday we will be asking readers to complete an action each day and report how successful and fulfilling it was. Community Links founder David Robinson said, "We are delighted to be working with Metro. With around 2 million Metro readers, we hope that 2 million of you are inspired to act and will help to bring this exciting vision(梦想) to life."
