Until recently, I hadn’t done much community service．In face, I did nothing to benefit anyone but myself．My selfishness and laziness were clear before I received an assignment from my teacher．Each student was required to complete 10 hours community service．To me, 10 hours was a huge amount of time to spend helping others．Volunterring, for me, has been a truly life – changing experience．
My mom suggested that I organize a food drive（募捐活动）in our development（新建筑宅区）and donate what I collected to a local shelter．Anything that would help finish the project seemed like a good idea, so I agreed．I made up flyers（传单）asking for donations and placed flyers at every house in my neighborhood．
I was getting ready to fetch the cans from my neighbor’s yards on the day of the food drive when all of a sudden it started to pour．Rain flooded the roads and wind blew hard, but I was determined to complete my task．My mom drove me around our development and I jumped out at every house to collect items people had put out．
When we finally arrived the shelter, I was a little nervous because I had never been there before．The woman in charge was extremely grateful for the donations and said that the world would be ganizing the food drive and delighted that my service to the community would make a difference in people’s lives．
As I was leaving the shelter, a man asked if I was the one who had brought all the food．I shyly nodded, and he said, “A round here, you are a hero．” From that point on, I made myself a promise that I would serve the community more often, even when it was not required．Through this school assignment, I have realized that caring for others is an important part of living and the world would be a completely different place if people all help those who are less fortunate．

As the Internet becomes more and more popular, the problem of identity becomes more serious．In a virtual world, people can have different addresses registered with different names．In the Internet chat room, even one’s gender（性别） is hard to determine．It seems that in the glohal village, people are saying hello every day to each other without knowing whom they are talking to．

BEIJING （Associated Press美联社）—China has a growing middle class, a tradition（传统） of expecting education and 21 million new babies every year．Selling educational toys should be easy．

BabyCare opened its first store in China last June in a shopping center in central Beijing and another near Beijing Zoo．It plans to have 80 stores in China within six years．
It is a new model for China and develops a market in young children’s education and health that no other companies are in．

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Over the last 25 years, British society has changed a great deal – or at least many parts of it have．1 ．Ideas about social class – whether a person is “working - class” or “middle - class” – are one area in which changes have been extremely slow．
In the past, the working – class tended to be paid less than middle – class people．The trypical working man would collect his wages on Friday evening and then, it was widely believed, having given his wife her "housekeeping", would go out and squander the rest on beer and betting．
The old style of what a middle-class man did with his money was perhaps nearer the truth．He was-and still is - inclined to take a longer-term view．Not only did he regard buying a house as a most important thing, but he also considered the education of his children as extremely important． 2 ．Only in very few cases did workers have the opportunity （or the education and training） to make such long-term plans．
3 ．In a large number of cases factory workers earn as much as their middle – class supervisors （管理者）．Social security and laws to improve century, have made it less necessary than before to worry about "tomorrow"．Working-class people seem slowly to be losing the feeling of inferiority（自卑感）．In fact there has been a growing tendency in the past few years for the middle-classes to feel slightly ashamed of their position．
4 ．They generally tend to share very similar tastes in music and clothes, they spend their money in having a good time, and save for holidays or longer-term plans when necessary．There seems to be much less difference than in precious generations．5 ．As long as this gap exists, there will always be a possibility that new conflicts and jealousies will emerge, or rather that the old conflicts will re-appear, but between different groups．
A．Nowadays, a great deal has changed
B．Both of these provided him and his family with security
C．As a result, differences in life – styles and attitudes came into existence
D．However, we still have a wide gap between the well – paid and the low - paid
E．In recent years, the working – class people have begun to design long – term plans
F．In some ways, however, very little has changed, particularly where attitudes are concerned
G．The changes in both life – styles and attitudes are probably most easily seen amongst younger people

Dear Patti,
I’m writing to you for some advice on my studies．As you know, football is a very popular sport in the world and I am attracted to it and I have fallen in love with it, which makes me feel so crazy．I have been spending lots of time doing many things related to it, like watching football matches, reading newspapers and magazines, and searching the Web for more information about football．As a result, it has certainly disturbed my normal study．Though I know to be a football fan is my hobby and my major objective is to learn more knowledge in school, I can’t concentrate on my lessons and gradually I am tired of them．I am still a senior two middle school student, and I’ll have my own business even when I grow up, so I am not likely to do a job in the field of football．But now I can’t stop myself from getting involved further with football．So I feel very depressed and want to know how to deal with the contradiction （矛盾） between my studies and hobbies．
Sincerely yours,
Li Ming
