【題目】As a school teacher, Inderjit Khurana used to take the train to work. And one day, at the station, she saw dozens of children who spent their days begging from train passengers rather than going to school. She learned that it was not a rare problem and that millions of children in India lived on the streets.

Realizing that these children would never be able to escape poor life and homelessness without education, and that it would be impossible to send these children to school, Inderjit decided to create a model program---taking the school to the most out- of-school children.

Khurana’s train platform schools aim to provide a creative school form and give children the basic levels of education. Her last goals reach far beyond the 20 platform schools she and her colleagues have created in India’s Bhubaneswar region. She is determined that her program will become a model for changing the lives of the poorest children throughout India and the world.

Khurana founded the Ruchika Social Service Organization(RSSO) in 1985. The teachers gather the children together between the stops of the train for reading, writing, maths and history taught through songs and other teaching tools.

Khurana recently comes to realize that the education of these children is impossible when the most basic needs of their families are not being met. So she also provides food and medicine for their families.

Khurana insists that every child have the right to an education and that if a child cannot come to the school, then the school must come to him or her.

【1】Khurana’s final aim is to .

A.make the poorest children’s lives better

B. put an end to the problem of children’s dropout(輟學)

C. attract more students to her platform schools

D. set up 20 platform schools throughout India

【2】What can we learn about the RSSO?

A. It has a history of more than 30 years.

B. It provides jobs for the poorest children.

C. It gives money to the out-of-school children.

D. Its work doesn’t only include free education for the street children.

【3】Khurana also offers free food and medicine to the children because_____.

A. the basic family needs are included in her model program

B. she hopes to draw more people’s attention to the RSSO

C. they are the necessities for the out-of-school children

D. she wishes to improve local people’s living standard

【題目】My students often tell me that they don’t have “enough time” to do all their schoolwork. My reply is often a brief “You have as much time as the president.” I usually carry on a bit about there being twenty-four hours in the day for everyone, and suggest that “not enough time” is not an acceptable explanation of not getting something done.

Once in graduate school, I tried to prove to one of my professors by saying that I was working hard. His answer to me was, “That’s irrelevant (無關的). What’s important is the quality of your work.” Since then I have had time to think carefully about the “hard worker” dodge (訣竅), and I have come to some conclusions all relevant to the problem of how much time we have.

If you analyze the matter, you can identify two parts of the problem: There is, of course, the matter of “time”, which we can think of as fixed. Then there is the problem of “work” during that time. But, as my professor suggested, it’s not how hard one works but the quality of the product that’s important.

That led me to a new idea: the quality of the work. That concept is perhaps best explained by a sign I once saw on the wall in someone’s office: “Don’t work harder. Work smarter.” There is a lot of sense in that idea.

If you can’t get more time, and few of us can, the only solution is to improve the quality of the work. That means thinking of ways to get more out of the same time than we might otherwise get. That should lead us to an analysis of our work habits. Since “work” for students usually means “homework”, the expression “work habits” should be read as “study habits”.

Then, as a smart student, you will seek to improve those skills that you use in study, chiefly reading and writing. If you learn to read better and write better, there are big benefits that pay off in all your studies.

【1】From the passage, we know that the author is probably ______ .

A. a poet B. an educator

C. a novelist D. an engineer

2We can infer from the 2nd paragraph that we students still _____ .

A. have enough time

B. can meet the president

C. get everything done well

D. should accept the explanation

3Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. The author’s students make good use of their time to do all their homework.

B. The author tried to tell the professor that he/she (author) had done a good job.

C. You can’t improve the quality of the work if you can’t get more time.

D. You’ll try to improve your skills in reading and writing if you’re a clever student.

4What’s the passage mainly about?

A. Students don’t have enough time.

B. Don’t work harder; work smarter.

C. No one can get more time.

D. Read better and write better.

【題目】The 6yearold kid watched in silence as the man behind the desk,the headmaster of the school,shook his head more than once to his mother.

Minutes later,mother and son walked slowly out of the school,her right hand holding his little hand,her left holding an umbrella to shield(遮擋) both of them from the sun.“Where are we going now,mother?”asked the kid,looking up at her.“To another school,”was her gentle reply.For some reason,the little kid had not been accepted by the school,and she was taking him to another,to try to get him registered.That was more than 50 years ago.That woman was my mother;that little kid was me.

Fifty years later,the day after my mother had slipped into a coma(昏迷) from a stroke,I sat next to her,holding her hand,stroking it,watching her body heaved up and down as she breathed heavily,as if she was struggling with something.Her eyes were closed,her mouth opened.I whispered softly to her,“Mum,it’s okay.You have given us everything.You can let go now.No need to struggle anymore,Mum.”

A few days later,Mum died.At her bedside,I spent some time just looking at my mother,soaking in the finality of her death.There she was,my mother,motionless and lifeless.I took hold of her still warm but lifeless hand,holding it for the last time,recalling every piece of the precious moment we spent together.

I finally let go of her hand—lifeless,yet having given so much life to so many of us,and placed it next to her body.I found myself saying silently to her the only words that came to my mind,“Goodbye Mum,thank you for everything.”

Thank you,Mother,fornot giving up,so that I could go to school.Thank you for coaching me,for reading to me,for ironing my school uniforms,for combing my hair,for tying my shoe laces,for making sure I had a little handkerchief inside my pocket...

Rest in peace,Mother,you are still very much alive in us.Happy Mother’s Day.
