If you are a college student looking for a program or taking a gap year to decide what to do next in life, then you should definitely consider volunteering abroad. We have made the selection process easier for college students! Take a look at these volunteer projects one can choose.
Wildlife Conservation Projects
They are meant for college students who are looking forward to spending time with animals. However, before starting the projects, college students have to attend an online meeting to see if they are suitable for the job, during which they need to answer some questions. Volunteers will get an opportunity to be part of a team working to make the environment better for some animals, as well as protecting them from danger.
Short -term Volunteer Programs (2-week Specials)
They are perfect for those who are looking for spring break programs or summer break programs. The “2-week Special Volunteer Programs” are made for college students who have less time to contribute but want to travel and volunteer abroad. Most of the programs are located in beautiful places and are extremely affordable.
Summer Volunteer and Travel Programs (3- 4-week Specials)
If you think you can make your vacation a little longer, then go for the Summer Volunteer and Travel Programs. These programs are designed in an amazing manner. Volunteers will go to the destinations(目 地), live like the locals, do some adventure sports, learn a new language and so on.
Community Development Projects
It is said that there are about 1 billion people who are short of housing facilities (住房设施). It is for this that Community Development Projects hold strong importance in our society. Volunteers are needed to make some real changes. Volunteers will be working to build or repair houses, school premises (校舍), and shelter homes. They help to achieve the goal of making society better.

Teens and younger children are reading a lot less for fun, according to a Common Sense Media report published Monday.
While the decline over the past decade is steep for teen readers, some data in the report shows that reading remains a big part of many children’s lives, and indicates how parents might help encourage more reading.
According to the report’s key findings, “the proportion (比例) who say they ‘hardly ever’ read for fun has gone from 8 percent of 13-year-olds and 9 percent of 17-year-olds in 1984 to 22 percent and 27 percent respectively today.”
The report data shows that pleasure reading levels for younger children, ages 2—8, remain largely the same. But the amount of time spent in reading each session has declined, from closer to an hour or more to closer to a half hour per session.
When it comes to technology and reading, the report does little to counsel(建议) parents looking for data about the effect of e-readers and tablets on reading. It does point out that many parents still limit electronic reading, mainly due to concerns about increased screen time.
The most hopeful data shared in the report shows clear evidence of parents serving as examples and important guides for their kids when it comes to reading. Data shows that kids and teens who do read frequently, compared to infrequent readers, have more books in the home, more books purchased for them, parents who read more often, and parents who set aside time for them to read.
As the end of school approaches, and school vacation reading lists loom(逼近) ahead, parents might take this chance to step in and make their own summer reading list and plan a family trip to the library or bookstore.
4. What is the Common Sense Media report probably about
A. Children’s reading habits.
B. Quality of children’s books.
C. Children’s after-class activities.
D. Parent-child relationships.
5. Where can you find the data that best supports “children are reading a lot less for fun”
A. In paragraph 2. B. In paragraph 3.
C. In paragraph 4. D. In paragraph 5.
6. Why do many parents limit electronic reading
A. E-books are of poor quality.
B. It could be a waste of time.
C. It may harm children’s health.
D. E-readers are expensive.
7. How should parents encourage their children to read more
A. Act as role models for them.
B. Ask them to write book reports.
C. Set up reading groups for them.
D. Talk with their reading class teachers.

Tonya, Elsa and Mark are students at LaGuardia High School in New York City. It’s a school with regular academic (学术的) classes, but it also gives special attention to the performing arts. Tonya likes dancing, Elsa wants to be an artist and Mark is a singer.
The students are all 15, and they’re in 10th grade. They study subjects like English, math, social studies, science and PE. They also choose a foreign language: French, Italian, Spanish or Japanese. Students have many academic classes, but during the school day they also take classes in the arts, like theater, art, dance and music. Mark says, “I get the basic classes, but I also take a voice class and a music history class.”
There is even more for LaGuardia students after school. There are more than 40 clubs for students. For example, there’s a movie club, a music club and an environment club. “We have so many choices here,” says Tonya. “My favorite club is the camera club. I like taking photos. It’s also a great way to meet people with common interests.”
Students at LaGuardia can also do many sports. For example, they can play basketball, tennis, volleyball and soccer. Elsa is on the gymnastics team. She says, “I like being on a team. It makes me work hard and do my best.” Students practice after school. They compete against other high schools. Mark says, “At school, I study by myself. I’m a singer, and I do that alone, too. That’s why I like playing on the basketball team. We work together and compete against other teams.”

In America, after middle school comes high school, which includes grades 9 through 12. Students are required to take certain subjects like English, social studies, maths, science, and physical education. In addition, they choose among elective (选修的) subjects to complete their high school education. Electives include subjects in technology, music, art, and foreign languages.
Each student in the school has their own locker for books and personal items (物品). This convenience saves students from carrying textbooks, and allows students a small space they can decorate with posters and favourite objects.
Most high schools have at least one sports team that competes in local events, and all students are encouraged to be involved in athletics. Schools often offer football, baseball and softball (垒球), basketball, volleyball, tennis, and soccer. Some may even have sports like golf, swimming, gymnastics and cross country skiing.
Many high school students have part time jobs by the age of 15 or 16, some even earlier. Their first jobs are often babysitting or cutting lawns, but later they will likely get a job at a fast food restaurant, video store, or clothing shop.
Sixteen years old is legal driving age in most states, and students usually want to own a car as soon as they can. Some parents allow their children to drive a family vehicle, and may even buy a car as a graduation present. Others prefer that their sons and daughters earn enough to purchase a used vehicle. Regardless, many teenagers feel it’s a necessity to own a car, and will do whatever it takes to be able to drive.
Each school holds certain yearly (一年一次的) activities for the entire school body, such as homecoming, prom night, holiday celebrations, etc.
Homecoming is celebrated each fall, usually on a weekend, and events leading up to it may last all week. While homecoming is celebrated differently at each school, it usually includes a parade and the crowning of the Homecoming King and Queen, and ends with a football game and school dance.
12. What elective subjects can American high school students choose
A. English, music and art.
B. English, music and technology.
C. French, music and art.
D. Maths, French and art.
13. Which of the following is WRONG about the locker for books
A. It is convenient for students.
B. It makes the students not bother to carry books.
C. It can be decorated according to the students’ tastes.
D. It can be used to hide some expensive things.
14. We can infer from the passage that ________.
A. most high schools attach importance to sports
B. most high school students are dependent
C. students in every state can get a driving license at 16
D. used cars are popular among students
15. The main idea of the passage is about ________.

Freshmen anywhere may be nervous about university life. Here, three pieces of advice are for them.
Listen but don’t be silent
The world is held in students’ hands via smart phones. Thus, they may consider lecture listening less important.____16____It forces students to face the difficulties of training a deep attentiveness (注意). Unsurprisingly, students find it hard to speak out, ask questions or for points of clarification. They don’t want to appear foolish or incapable. However, there is no such thing as a foolish question.
Teachers are there to help you understand. This also goes for seminars and workshops. ____17____
Read and buy books
____18____ There’re so many useful online sources today, but the habit of reading books, especially whole books, is something being lost. Buy your own books. There are many bargains to be found on used-book websites or through Amazon. Being a book lover and buyer will help any student get the most out of their education.
____19____
As a student, you don’t just have to learn to listen and become an active reader: you also have to become an academic (学术的) writer. Written work at college level cannot be done at the last minute or in a rush. It takes time. Turn to your teachers. If they will read draft essays then make sure you can get feedback (反馈) ahead of the final submission.____20____Students who get feedback on their work always do better than those who do not. It is one of the few educational laws that holds true in all cases.
A. Don’t try to do it all the night before.
B. However, a lecture is a listening workout.
C. Thinking clearly cannot be done in a rush.
D. So train your ear, listen carefully, but don’t be silent.
E. Reading is the most important thing that any student does.
F. Re-writing has proved to be the turning point in one’s degree.
G. If they won’t read drafts (草稿), then ask them to run through (匆匆浏览) your ideas.

Last weekend, I went to Mark’s new house near a forest for a little get-together. After lunch when I was chatting with him and his wife Cody, he asked me, “Hey, Thora, have you ever been to a secret spot ” Before I could even finish saying no, Cody and Mark were already at the door with their jackets on. And the next moment we were heading out into the forest with a camera, a fishing net and a plastic bucket (桶).
We walked through the forest along a path by a small river. Breathing the fresh air, we three talked and laughed all the way.
“Hey! What are you guys doing ” someone suddenly shouted from behind. Mark and Cody’s eyes immediately widened, and without a word they started running. I had no choice but to follow them, getting my shoes wet and dirty with mud. We probably ran for about 10 minutes before Mark and Cody slowed down. I stopped to catch my breath and asked, “Who was that ”
Mark replied “The most annoying neighbor ever. There’s no telling what could happen if he caught up with us. He is always making fun of us. I dislike him.” We kept walking on for a few more minutes. Then a beautiful lake appeared before our eyes. “Wow! Amazing!” I shouted and could hardly hold back my excitement. The lake was large and the water was deep and blue, looking so peaceful with tall trees around it.

In America, after middle school comes high school, which includes grades 9 through 12. Students are required to take certain subjects like English, social studies, maths, science, and physical education. In addition, they choose among elective (选修的) subjects to complete their high school education. Electives include subjects in technology, music, art, and foreign languages.
Each student in the school has their own locker for books and personal items (物品). This convenience saves students from carrying textbooks, and allows students a small space they can decorate with posters and favourite objects.
Most high schools have at least one sports team that competes in local events, and all students are encouraged to be involved in athletics. Schools often offer football, baseball and softball (垒球), basketball, volleyball, tennis, and soccer. Some may even have sports like golf, swimming, gymnastics and cross country skiing.
Many high school students have part time jobs by the age of 15 or 16, some even earlier. Their first jobs are often babysitting or cutting lawns, but later they will likely get a job at a fast food restaurant, video store, or clothing shop.
Sixteen years old is legal driving age in most states, and students usually want to own a car as soon as they can. Some parents allow their children to drive a family vehicle, and may even buy a car as a graduation present. Others prefer that their sons and daughters earn enough to purchase a used vehicle. Regardless, many teenagers feel it’s a necessity to own a car, and will do whatever it takes to be able to drive.
Each school holds certain yearly (一年一次的) activities for the entire school body, such as homecoming, prom night, holiday celebrations, etc.
Homecoming is celebrated each fall, usually on a weekend, and events leading up to it may last all week. While homecoming is celebrated differently at each school, it usually includes a parade and the crowning of the Homecoming King and Queen, and ends with a football game and school dance.

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Freshmen anywhere may be nervous about university life. Here, three pieces of advice are for them.
Listen but don’t be silent
The world is held in students’ hands via smart phones. Thus, they may consider lecture listening less important.____16____It forces students to face the difficulties of training a deep attentiveness (注意). Unsurprisingly, students find it hard to speak out, ask questions or for points of clarification. They don’t want to appear foolish or incapable. However, there is no such thing as a foolish question.
Teachers are there to help you understand. This also goes for seminars and workshops. ____17____
Read and buy books
____18____ There’re so many useful online sources today, but the habit of reading books, especially whole books, is something being lost. Buy your own books. There are many bargains to be found on used-book websites or through Amazon. Being a book lover and buyer will help any student get the most out of their education.
____19____
As a student, you don’t just have to learn to listen and become an active reader: you also have to become an academic (学术的) writer. Written work at college level cannot be done at the last minute or in a rush. It takes time. Turn to your teachers. If they will read draft essays then make sure you can get feedback (反馈) ahead of the final submission.____20____Students who get feedback on their work always do better than those who do not. It is one of the few educational laws that holds true in all cases.
A. Don’t try to do it all the night before.
B. However, a lecture is a listening workout.
C. Thinking clearly cannot be done in a rush.
D. So train your ear, listen carefully, but don’t be silent.
E. Reading is the most important thing that any student does.
F. Re-writing has proved to be the turning point in one’s degree.
G. If they won’t read drafts (草稿), then ask them to run through (匆匆浏览) your ideas.
【答案】16. B 17. D 18. E 19. A 20. G
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了针对大一新生对于大学生活的紧张情绪提出的一些应对方法。
【16题详解】
根据小标题“Listen but don’t be silent(听着，但不要沉默)”以及“Thus, they may consider lecture listening less important.(因此，他们可能认为听课不那么重要)”可知，本段要求大一新生要学会倾听但不要保持沉默，而空前表明学生们认为上课听讲并不重要，由此推知，空处提出了与上文相反的观点。B项“然而，讲座是一种听力训练。”符合语境。故选B。
【17题详解】
根据上文“Teachers are there to help you understand. This also goes for seminars and workshops.(老师会帮助你理解。这也适用于研讨会和讲习班)”可知，如果在听课中遇到问题，老师会在那里帮助你理解，这也适用于研讨会和专题研究会。因此空处得出结论，表明训练听力非常重要，呼应了主题句“Listen but don’t be silent”。D项“所以训练你的耳朵，仔细倾听，但不要沉默。”符合题意。故选D。
【18题详解】
根据小标题“Read and buy books(阅读和购买书籍)”可知，本段主要介绍了阅读书籍非常重要。E项“阅读是任何学生做的最重要的事情。”符合语境。E项中的Reading和小标题相呼应。故选E。
【19题详解】
根据下文“Written work at college level cannot be done at the last minute or in a rush. It takes time.(大学水平的书面工作不能在最后一刻或匆忙完成。它需要时间)”可知，书面工作需要时间，不能在短时间将其完成。A项“不要试图在前一晚完成”适合作本段小标题。故选A。
【20题详解】
根据上文“If they will read draft essays then make sure you can get feedback(反馈)ahead of the final submission.(如果他们会阅读论文草稿，那么请确保在最终提交之前获得反馈)”可知，空处和前文并列列举了向老师寻求帮助后出现的两种情况。前文描述老师会阅读论文草稿，那样的话就要确保在提交之前获得反馈。由此推知，空处陈述如果老师不阅读草稿的情况。G项“如果他们不会读草稿，那么让他们把你的想法通读一遍。”符合语境。故选G。

And the next moment we were heading out into the forest with a camera, a fishing net and a plastic bucket (桶).
We walked through the forest along a path by a small river. Breathing the fresh air, we three talked and laughed all the way.
“Hey! What are you guys doing ” someone suddenly shouted from behind. Mark and Cody’s eyes immediately widened, and without a word they started running. I had no choice but to follow them, getting my shoes wet and dirty with mud. We probably ran for about 10 minutes before Mark and Cody slowed down. I stopped to catch my breath and asked, “Who was that ”
Mark replied, “The most annoying neighbor ever. There’s no telling what could happen if he caught up with us. He is always making fun of us. I dislike him.” We kept walking on for a few more minutes. Then a beautiful lake appeared before our eyes. “Wow! Amazing!” I shouted and could hardly hold back my excitement. The lake was large and the water was deep and blue, looking so peaceful with tall trees around it.

【答案】范文
Paragraph1:
Looking around, we saw a boat floating by the shore. “How about going boating ” Mark asked. “Good idea.” I agreed. I was excited to find so many fishes in the lake. Before I could say a word, Mark had cast the fishing net into the water. “Look this way. Let me take a photo of you two.” Cody said, taking out the camera. Hearing that, I quickly approached Mark. But all of a sudden I lost my balance and fell into the water.
Paragraph 2:
“Help! Help! Help!” I was so frightened and cried for help. However, none of us could swim. Mark and Cody tried to pull me up from the water but failed. Struggling in the water, I was almost exhausted. Suddenly, I felt myself lifted by someone. It was Mark’s neighbor, who followed us there. Without hesitation, he jumped into the water and saved me.
