But in fact, the truth is that homelessness is everywhere. For example, how many of us would expect to see people living on the streets of a wealthy, developed country like Germany?Kurt Muller and his 16 Rita have spent eleven years making meals for the homeless of Berlin, Germanys capital. They first began to do that in a hot summer when most Germans were away and enjoyed themselves on holiday. Kurt and his wife stayed at 17 , made sandwiches and some delicious food by themselves, set up a table in the street and gave the 18 to the homeless. The Mullers soon realized that food wasnt enough. Most of the homeless people are lonely, they have no friends or relatives. “ 19 these people also need is warmth and caring,” says Rita. The Mullers gave their phone number to the street people 20 thinking and told them to phone anytime. Rita made sure there was 21 at home to answer the phone and their home was always open to anyone who couldnt face another night on the street. The couple were soon 22 all their time and money, so Kurt visited food and clothing companies to ask for donations. Today, over thirty companies donate food and other goods and volunteers 23 to give them away to the homeless. The public also give clothes and money and a backpack producer donates new backpacks. Kurt and Rita put their love to good use by helping homeless people in Berlin, they didnt receive any payment for their hard work. “ We feel like parents,” says Rita, “and parents shouldnt expect money for helping their children. The love 24 we get on the streets is our salary.” 25 Rita says she often gets tired, she feels good about helping other people. They will go on with their work because they like the feeling of having made a difference in the world. ( )16. A. friendB. wifeC. sisterD. mother( )17. A. schoolB. hospitalC. homeD. factory( )18.

It wasnt built on land, like Beijing or Shanghai, but on more than 110 islands. Seawater is everywhere around the city.Even so, travel isnt difficult. The waterways have always been the best ways to get around. There are 117 waterways and more than 400 bridges that can guide you where you want to go. People in Venice move from place to place by boat. They like to enjoy the scenery and cool summer nights while taking boat trips. They can talk to other people as they go along.Venice grew out of small islands in saltwater lakes when some Italians escaped from a war more than 1,500 years ago, and built homes there.Water makes the city special, but it is also a big problem.Once, people used too much underground water. This made the city get lower little by little. Now the city has gone down by 23 centimeters. Another problem is the rising seawater. The temperature has risen over the years. This has made the ice of the Arctic Ocean (北冰洋) melt (融化).Every year, high waters hit the city in autumn and winter. When a lot of water comes, more than half of the city is underwater.Scientists are trying different ways to stop the city from getting even lower.根据短文内容，选择正确答案。( )31. Where is Venice? A. In Italy. B.

In order to solve this problem, the government has decided to have a bike revolution(革命). It has decided to provide 6,000 bikes for the people to rent. The government encourages local people to ride bikes in order to solve the traffic problem. More than 12,000 people have agreed to the idea. Some of them ask for more than one key. Although there are not enough bikes, an official(官员) from the government said that they would find some ways to deal with such a shortage.Local people can get these bikes at special docking stations(停靠站). There are about 315 docking stations across the city. About 12,450 keys have already been handed out to the local people, but only 6,000 keys can be used now. Lets see the cost you need to pay. One key costs 3, and the cost of using the bike is 1 for an hour. The cost per hour increases as the hours increase, so it will cost 50 if you rent the bike for 24 hours.The official from the government said they also needed to face a lot of problems, for example, some bikes may be lost. But they said they would try their best to solve all the problems to make sure the success of the program.( )36.

I hope you have enjoyed the music. 41 Every day, hundreds of children in Africa lose their young lives, because they have terrible diseases or dont have enough food to eat. Most African countries are poor. 42 And many parents have no jobs, so they have little money to buy food or medicine. We hold the concert to raise money for the children in Africa. 43 For example, the Feed Africa Fund (援非基金)spends millions of dollars every year on food for them in Africa. All the money comes from kind and generous people, just like all of you. 44 Just one dollar can buy enough rice or corn to feed a family of four for three days. 45 Ten dollars? Twenty dollars? I am sure you can spend a little less on your own food so that you have a few dollars for the Feed Africa Fund.Ladies and gentlemen, we now make a collection for the children in Africa. Please be generous. Thank you !根据短文内容，从下面五个选项中选出能填入文中空缺处的最佳选项，使短文意思通顺，内容完整。A. Many organizations are trying to help the poor in Africa.B. How much do you spend on food every day?C.
