I’d always dreamed of exploring Africa,ever since I read my first Tarzan(《人猿泰山》) comic as a child. Finally, in 2004, to celebrate my 60th birthday,I went to Tanzania to experience a safari(東非游獵)and climb Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa.Seated next to me on the flight was Tanzania’s minister of water and wildlife development.
We talked for thousands of miles,and he arranged me to visit a school.
When I toured the school, I was shocked. The leaky(漏的) roofs turned the dirt floors into mud during the rainy season,and the walls couldn’t keep out the heat,cold or bugs(小昆蟲).The school was in need of all material goods,but the kids possessed great human spirit.
It broke my heart that these children had to struggle to survive, so I asked the headmaster what it would cost to feed them.As little as 20 cents per child per day, he told me. Immediately I got home, I founded Kids of Kilimanjaro. Since then we’ve grown to
provide
hot lunches for nearly 13,000 schoolchildren every day. The free lunch program has eased a major problem the youngsters face.
I know a good education could really make a difference in these children’s lives.My parents always stressed the importance of education.
I paid my own way through college in Tokyo by teaching English to students and businesspeople.After attending university I moved to San Francisco, when I was 25 years old.
In 1978 I realized my American dream when I founded my own company. My success all started with a good education.
It’s amazing that something as simple as a nutritious lunch can change and enrich so many lives.Giving young people a better, healthier life can inspire them to go all the way through college and lead a movement that transforms their country.
本文是一篇記敘文。從小就夢想到非洲旅行的作者,在2004年實現(xiàn)了夢想。在了解到當?shù)匾凰鶎W校學生的疾苦后,他回到美國創(chuàng)建了Kids of Kilimanjaro,以幫助解決那里的學生中午吃飯的問題。
1.Why did the author go to Tanzania to celebrate his 60th birthday?

B.He was concerned about the Africans’ miserable life.
C.He wanted to get an idea of the area’s wildlife.
D.He hoped to lead a movement that would transform his country.
解析 推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第一段中的I’d always dreamed of exploring Africa及to celebrate my 60th birthday,I went to Tanzania to experience a safari可知,作者為了慶祝六十歲的生日去非洲是為了看一看非洲到底是什么樣子。
答案 A
2.After his tour to the school, the author found that the kids there were ________.

解析 事件順序題。由文章第一段第一句話可知“作者是在兒童時期第一次閱讀《人猿泰山》”;由第三段可知“作者25歲的時候搬到圣弗朗西斯科”,由第一段可知“作者2004年的時候是60歲”,由此可推斷“作者搬到圣弗朗西斯科的時候是1969年”;由第三段可知“作者是1978的成立自己的公司”;由第二段可知“作者是2004年創(chuàng)建了Kids of Kilimanjaro”。故本題答案為D。

The Ford Foundation is a charitable organization that calls itself “a partner for social change.”It has a study program available to college graduates in 22 countries and territories in Asia,Africa and Latin America.The Ford Foundation International Fellowships Program offers graduates a chance to continue their studies.The aim is to help them learn ways to solve problems in their own countries.
Joan Dassin,the executive director of the program, said,“Let’s say you have an undergraduate law degree but you really want to be able to bring international human rights standards to
your part of the world.
In that case we would send you to a program in Geneva on international human rights.
So we work very closely with students not so much about what they want to study, but more about ________.”
About two-thirds of the fellows study in the United States, Canada or Europe. The others study in their home country or region.
Fellows are chosen by independent local committees.
They get advice about which schools and programs could help them reach their goals.
The foundation says 95% are accepted into a university graduate program within one year of getting a fellowship. Almost 4,000 fellows have been chosen since the first were named in June of 2001. As of last December almost half had completed their fellowships.
The Ford Foundation says the goals include strengthening democratic(民主的) values, reducing poverty and increasing international cooperation.Another goal is to make sure fellows return home to use their educations.
The program pays all costs,including support services like training in computer skills,
academic writing and a foreign language.Partner organizations in the home countries stay in contact with the fellows throughout the program.
Joan Dassin says the fellowships are aimed especially at those with the fewest resources available.He also said,“People from all walks of life,and particularly from rural areas or marginalized(落后的)communities,
can have access to higher education at the most advanced levels,
and our program provides that opportunity.”
