Sometimes called Amazonia, the rainforest of the Amazon River basin is the largest in the world. It stretches
(延伸) across more than half of Brazil and parts of seven other South American countries (and French Guiana).
With a land area of 2.7 million square miles, the Amazon rainforest is almost two thirds the size of the US.
Rainforests are important to the health of the entire planet. Often called
rainforest, with its rich plant life, stores carbon dioxide while giving out the oxygen we need to survive.
At one time, rainforests covered 14 percent of Earth’s surface. Deforestation has reduced that figure to 6
percent today. Much of the loss has been in the Amazon.
Fortunately, over the years, Brazil has also become a world leader in rainforest preservation. A law called the
Forest Code, originally passed in 1965, requires the Amazon’s farmers to protect 80 percent of their land from
farming. And democratic governments beginning in the early 1990s began to enforce it seriously.
Efforts to save the Amazon increased under President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva (2002—2011). Brazil set
aside about 150 million acres of the rainforest, an area about the size of France, for protection. Deforestation fell
by 74 percent between 2004 and 2009.
Other countries of the Amazon have also done their parts. This year, Peru created a forest reserve about the
size of California’s Yosemite National Park.
21. What is the size of the Amazon rainforest?
A. About the size of France. B. Nearly half the size of Brazil.
C. Over half the size of the US. D. About the size of seven South American countries.
22. How much of the rainforest has been lost due to deforestation according to Paragraph 3?
A. 6%. B. Approximately 8%. C. 14%.
23. Which country contributes most to the preservation of the Amazon rainforest?
A. Peru. B. Brazil. C. The US.
24. What does the author feel about the situation of the Amazon?
A. Optimistic. B. Moved. C. Worried.

D. More than 50%.
D. French Guiana.
D. Uncertain.

Working as a volunteer is sure to enrich your life, and the lives of others, in more ways than you could ever

imagine. It’s an exciting and personally inspiring experience and you’ll develop memories that will be with you
forever.
As a volunteer, you’re making a meaningful contribution, working side-by-side with local people and sharing
in the goals of a community that warmly welcomes you. You’re experiencing another culture like never before and
really getting to know its people. You’ll gain a better understanding of the culture and yourself. There are a huge
number of volunteering programs that offer different focuses. You may participate in a conservation project to
help protect local environment or endangered wildlife, an educational project helping women or the disadvantaged,
or a community project helping build essential facilities (基础设施) for a village or town.
These experiences will be hugely rewarding and also challenging, and will allow you to show what you
really can achieve. Expect a culture shock as this is a grass-roots type of adventure, as you will be placed in
remote areas with no phones, no television and sometimes no flushing toilet! What you will learn is the beauty of
human nature, the power of team work and the difference you can make to the global community. You will also
improve your personal growth. Increasing your social awareness, gaining self-confidence, building a sense of
independence, discovering your strengths and talents, developing skills, expanding your social circle and
developing a job finding network are just some of the potential benefits that will result from your volunteering
experiences. You will get as much out of volunteering as you put into it—and quite often, you will get a whole lot
more.
25. What would you focus on if you participate in an educational project?
A. Spreading a new culture. B. Protecting endangered wildlife.
C. Helping kids from poor families. D. Improving basic facilities.
26. What is needed for volunteer work according to the passage?
A. A wide range of social circles. B. A good knowledge of local culture.
C. The volunteer experiences in remote areas. D. The willingness to live a hard life.
27. What is the purpose of the passage?
A. To encourage volunteer work. B. To describe the difficulties with volunteer work.
C. To show sympathy for the poor. D. To introduce the operation of volunteer work.
C
When I was two years old, I was diagnosed with a sensorineural (感觉神经) hearing loss. My mother cried
when she found out—she wanted her son to be happy and able to experience everything life had to offer. I went to
a special playgroup twice a week where a nurse discovered I had taught myself to read. I then attended a school
for the deaf from age three to six.
I remember looking around the room there. People talked and signed to each other. I had a best friend and I
did very well in class. But I told my mother that I wanted to go to the regular school with hearing people, because
I felt more like a hearing person than a hearing-impaired (听力受损) one. I didn’t even use sign language! I
lip-read and listened with my hearing aids. After visiting a public school for a day, my mother agreed to let me go.
Needless to say, I have functioned very well.
Many people don’t even know I am hearing-impaired until they see my hearing aids. My girlfriend often
forgets that I have any problem, and I feel fortunate that she does not look down upon people like me. The only
problem I have with this hearing loss is that some people discriminate against me. The fact is that I am just as
normal as anyone else. The only differences are that others need to speak up, and I have some help from my
hearing aids.
The next time you see hearing-impaired people, don’t feel sorry for them—that just gives them an excuse to
victimize themselves and hurt their own potential. Instead, encourage them and tell them that a handicap（缺陷）
only hurts a person if he or she lets it.
28. Which is TRUE about the author when he was 5?
