Thirteen-year-old Rabia is one of them. Tall and thin, she sits shaking in a yellow T-shirt at the Al Marj settlement, close to the Lebanese-Syrian border. Home for Rabia was once a two-story house near Damascus. Now it is a tent shared with her nine family members. Rabias face is covered with dirt, and she is tired and cold. She has just finished work, picking up potatoes that fell from a truck. Her typical day starts at 4 a.m., and she works a double shift that lasts about 16 hours, putting potatoes into bags. The only choice for her is that she can choose the first eight hours or the second eight hours. For this, she gets paid about $8 a day.Working means Rabia misses school. Back in her village, she was the best in her class and good at everything. Her favorite subjects were Arabic literature and math. But, like many children now living in the settlements there are no official refugee（难民）camps in Lebanon that was Rabias old life. Life before war, before her family moved five times to escape the bombs, before leaving behind her bedroom, her toys and her friends without packing a bag, before “half the people I know” were dead.The old life was full of laughter with her sister, Wala. But Wala, 14, got married two days ago to an 18-year-old Lebanese. Rabia is happy for her sister. Life in the settlement is tough the children have nowhere to play, the bathing is poor and sexual abuse is out of control. You cant blame parents often confused, illiterate and poor who want to marry off their daughters. They fear for their safety.Increasing numbers of Rabias girlfriends are getting married. Once in rural Syria, a girl got married at 16. According to UNICEF, the age is now dropping to 12 or 13. It is no secret that Lebanese men want to marry Syrian refugee girls, who work hard and dont ask for anything.11 Where is the passage most likely to have been taken from?A. A news report. B. A book review.C. A history book. D. A travel magazine.12The underlined word “shift” in Para. 3 probably refers to _.A. the extra task B. the low payC. the potato factory. D. the working period13The writers purpose for writing Para. 4 is to _.A. present the dream of RabiaB. show the damage of the warC. predict the future of Syrian girlsD. compare the life before war and now Lowest Book PricesShop the Kindle Store for millions of books, newspapers, and magazines.

Over her bald head, she wore a pink hat that matched her clothes. But the third graders cheery dressing didnt mask her pain and weary eyes.Then a visitor showed up. “Do you want to write a song?” asked Anita Kruse, 49, rolling a cart equipped with an electronic keyboard, a microphone and speakers. Simran stared. “Have you ever written a poem?” Anita Kruse continued. “Well, yes,” Simran said.Within minutes, Simran was reading her poem into the microphone“Some bird soaring through the sky,” she said softly. “Imagination in its head” Anita Kruse added piano music, a few warbling (鸣,唱) birds, and finally the girls voice. Thirty minutes later, she presented Simran with a CD of her first recorded song.That was the beginning of Anita Kruses project, Purple Songs Can Fly, one that has helped more than 125 young patients write and record songs. As a composer and pianist who had performed at the hospital, Kruse said that the idea of how she could help “came in one flash”.The effect on the kids has been great. One teenage girl, curling (蜷缩) in pain in her wheelchair, stood unaided to dance to a hip-hop song she had written. A 12-year-old boy with Hodgkins disease who rarely spoke surprised his doctors with a song he called I Can Make It.“My time with the kids is heartbreaking because of the severity of their illnesses,” says Anita Kruse. “But they also make you happy, when the children are smiling, excited to share their CD with their families.”Simran is now an active sixth grader and cancer-free. From time to time, she and her mother listen to her song, Always Remembering, and they always remember the “really sweet and nice and loving” lady who gave them a shining moment in the dark hour.21Simran Jatar lay in bed in hospital because _.A. most of her hair had fallen outB. she was receiving treatment for cancerC. she felt depressed and quit from schoolD. she was suffering from a pain in her back22What do we know about Anita Kruses project?A.

The project has positive effect on young patients.D. Singing is the best way to treat some illnesses.24What is probably the best title for the passage?A. Purple Songs Can Fly B.

Whenever I speak to a Chinese student, they always say, “My spoken English is poor.” 46 I would like to suggest that there may be some reasons for their problems with spoken English.First, they fail to find suitable words to express themselves due to a limited vocabulary. 47 However, you can speak with a limited vocabulary, if you choose a positive attitude. Others will follow you as long as you use the words that you know.48 Sometimes they make mistakes when they are speaking because they are shy and nervous. Yet students should remember that in speaking, your aim is fluency. You want to get your message across, talking to someone in English, as quickly and well as you can.Even though sometimes you may use a wrong word or tense, but it doesnt matter. 49The third reason is that not enough attention is paid to listening. You have one mouth but two ears! All the hearing is necessary for you to start speaking.Fourth, most Chinese students are reactive rather than p
