At the age of sixteen, I went on my first vol...

At the age of sixteen, I went on my first volunteer program in West Virginia to repair or build homes for poor families. When we arrived, we discovered that the family we were going to help was living in a trailer（拖车式活动房）that was in poor condition, no bigger than two parking spaces. A group of people had been working on it for two weeks, but every time they finished one problem, another appeared.

We soon decided that the only way was to build a new house. It was something unusual because normally our goal was to repair old homes. The family was pleased with their new house that was 20 by 30 feet with three bedrooms, a bath and a kitchen.

On Tuesday of that week, I asked the family’s three boys, Josh, Eric and Ryan, “What do you want for your new room?” Kids in the families we had helped usually wanted toys or posters, so we were surprised when Josh, the oldest boy said, “We just want beds.” The boys had never slept in a bed. That night we had a meeting and decided that beds would be the perfect gift. On Thursday night, a few adults in our group drove to the nearest city and bought beds and new bedding.

On Friday when we saw the truck coming, we told the family about the surprise. They were very excited.

That afternoon, while we were setting up the beds, Eric ran into the house to watch us with wide eyes. As Maggie, a member of our group, put one of the pillows on the bed, Eric asked, “What is that?”

“A pillow,” she replied.

“What do you do with it?” Eric went on asking.

“When you go to sleep, you put your head on it,” Maggie answered softly. Tears came to our eyes as she handed Eric the pillow.

“Oh . . . that’s soft,” he said, holding it tightly.

Now, when my sister or I start to ask for something that seems very urgent（急迫的）, my dad always asks, “Do you have a pillow?” We know exactly what he means.

1.Why did the writer’s group build a new house for the family?

A. Because it was their normal work.

B. Because the family asked them to do it.

C. Because the trailer could no longer be repaired.

D. Because they thought it was a perfect gift for the family.

2.What can we learn from the story?

A. The family needed two parking spaces.

B. The boys of the family wanted toys and posters.

C. The family were excited about the beds and bedding.

D. The writer’s group made some furniture for the family.

3.What is the best title for this passage?

My first photo was taken at the age of 9. While I couldn't even remember the model of the camera, I do remember the enjoyment of looking through the photos.

When I was 16 years old, I bought a Canon camera before an overseas trip. Over the years, I have taken many photos with it. There's Aunt Sarah, smiling in front of Buckingham Palace; Aunt Sarah，smiling under the Eiffel Tower; and Aunt Sarah, smiling in a Venetian Canal. Everyone knows what Aunt Sarah looks like. They also know what Europe's great landmarks(地标) look like. I didn't think about composition(构图) when taking the photos.

After the camera was stolen, I didn't buy another one for a long time because I didn't want to buy a camera until I found a Vivitar Series camera. It worked well in natural light, and I took a lot of photos with it. From then on, I had an artist's eye. My pictures were not of familiar Greek architectures. Instead, I took pictures of farmers at work in the field, fishermen repairing their nets. I captured (抓往) the colour and character of the country. My friends were so interested that they asked for more.

Of course, I won the first prize easily in some photo competitions. My friends often told me that I moved from an amateur (业余爱好者) to an artist.
