Ankara， Turkey： I come from Moldova and I am now working as a UN Volunteer with the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) in Turkey. I have been living in Turkey for a few years and have had the to observe the approach of the Turkish people towards . In Turkey people help each other with their hearts and from their hearts on a continuous basis.

Young people are the main driving engine behind the ever-growing volunteer force in Turkey. For Turkish people it is common to be part of some kind of organization or student club on a volunteer basis， doing various activities such as exchanges， environmental action， charity work and peer education.

This trend(傾向) grew in the late 1990s， despite the fact that civil society organizations have sometimes been viewed with disbelief by some state authorities.

This has in the last decade， and many young people now choose to get involved and use their spare time to develop their skills， while also showing their civic participation by to a cause.

Perhaps this is the reason why the core of the UNV community at UNHCR Turkey is young people. Being a UN Volunteer with UNCHR allows us to gain the skills needed to realize our social and human development potential， but also to dedicate our time， energy and ideas to contribute to the of UNHCR’s global strategic aims.

Being a UN Volunteer with UNHCR is an opportunity to make other people’s lives better. Working on refugee status determination has been an interesting and learning experience. Part of the task involves carrying out extensive research on the situation and the condition of the countries the refugees(難民) come from.

Especially according to recent events in neighboring countries， and given the arrival of refugees and the increased time necessary to process the number of applications for shelter， the contribution of UN Volunteers to UNHCR seems necessary and the impact invaluable.

I also believe that I have brought cultural diversity(多元性) to an already diverse ， where true professionals and young graduates from different nations work hard side by side to refugees and find durable solutions for them.

科目：高中英語 來源：2015-2016學(xué)年河北唐山第一中學(xué)高一上期中英語試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

When I was about 12, I had an enemy, a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings(缺點). Week by week her list grew: I was very thin, I wasn’t a good student, I talked too much, I was too proud, and so on. I tried to hear all this as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes.

He listened to me quietly, and then he asked, “Are the things she says true or not? Janet, didn’t you ever wonder what you’re really like? Well, you now have that girl’s opinion. Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said.”

I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldn’t change (like being very thin), but a good number I could—and suddenly I wanted to change. For the first time I got a fairly clear picture of myself.

I brought the list back to Daddy. He refused to take it. “That’s just for you,” he said. “You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. But you have to learn to listen, not just close your ears in anger and feel hurt. When something said about you is true, you’ll find it will be of help to you. Our world is full of people who think they know your duty. Don’t shut your ears. Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you know is the right thing to do.”

Daddy’s advice has returned to me at many important moments. In my life, I’ve never had a better piece of advice.

1.What did the father do after he had heard his daughter’s complaint?

A. He refused to take the list and have a look at it.

B. He told her not to pay any attention to what her “enemy” had said.

C. He was angry and told her to overcome her shortcomings.

D. He told her to write down all and pay attention only to the things that were true.

2.What does “Week by week her list grew” mean?

A. Week by week she discovered and pointed out more shortcomings of mine.

B. She kept on adding new ones to the list so it was growing longer and longer.

C. I was having more and more shortcomings as time went on.

D. Week by week, my shortcomings grew more serious.

3.Which do you think would be the best title for this passage?

A. My Father

B. My Childhood

C. The Best Advice I’ve Ever Had

D. Not an Enemy, but the Best Friend

Television has turned 88 years old on September 7, 2015, and it has never looked better.

In its youth, television was a piece of furniture with a tiny, round screen showing unclear pictures of low­ budget programs. In spite of its shortcomings, it became well-received. Between 1950 and 1963, the number of American families with a television jumped from 9% to 92% of the population.

As the audience got larger, the technology got better. Television sets became more reliable through the 1960s. Both of the reception and the picture improved. The major networks started broadcasting programs in color.

Even greater improvements were coming according to Sanford Brown, who wrote an article for the Post in 1967. Surprisingly, just about every prediction he made in the article became a reality. For example: All sets in the not­ distant future will be color instruments. He also predicted that TV sets would become smaller, simpler, more reliable and less expensive and may forever put the TV repairman out of work. Smaller sets do not, of course, mean smaller screens. TV engineers expect screens to get much bigger. However, today's 3­D TV is even farther away, if it's coming at all. There is some doubt whether the public would be eager to pay for it, in view of people's cold reception given to 3­D movies.

But the technology with the greatest potential, according to Brown, was cable television (有線電視), which was still in its early stages then. As he predicted, the future of cable television was highly interactive. It wasn't cable television that gave Americans their electronic connection to the world, however. It was the Internet. He even foresaw the future office: using picture phones, big screen televisions for conferences, and computers providing information, at the touch of a button.

Brown ever said, “The future of television is no longer a question of what we can invent. It's a question of what we want.”

1.What can we infer about television sets in the 1960s?

A.They were very popular with Americans.

B.The reception showed no improvement

C.They showed black­-and-­white pictures

D.They were out of order now and then

2.Which of the followings did Sanford Brown fail to predict?

A.Television's good quality.

B.The invention of 3­-D TV.

C.The future office’s model

D.The potential of cable TV.

3.What is the text mainly about?

A.The shortcomings of television.

B.The bright future of television.

C.The development of television.

D.The invention of television.

C

Thirteen can be a challenging age. Not only did I have to adapt to my changing body, I also had to deal with my parents’ bitter divorce, a new family and the upsetting move from my country home to a crowded town.

When we moved, my beloved companion, a small brown pony had to be sold. I was heartbroken and terribly lonely. I couldn’t eat or sleep and cried all the time. Finally, realizing how much I missed my pony, my father bought me another horse, Cowboy.

Cowboy was without doubt the ugliest horse in the world. But I didn’t care. I loved him beyond all reasons.

I joined a riding club. When Cowboy and I entered the events where the horse was judged by appearance, we were quickly ”shown the gate”. I knew nothing could turn Cowboy into a beauty. My only chance to compete would be in the timed speed events. I chose the jumping race.

For the whole next month we practiced running and jumping for hours in the hot sun and then I would walk Cowboy home, totally exhausted.

All of our hard work didn’t make me feel confident by the time the show came. One girl named Becky rode a big brown horse in the race events. She always won the blue ribbons. I sat at the gate and sweated all out while I watched Becky and her horse charge through the court and finish in first place.

My turn finally came. At the signal, we dashed toward the first fence, jumped over it without trouble and raced on to the next one. Cowboy then flew over the second, third and fourth fences like a bird and I turned him toward the finish line.

No cheers filled the air. The end of our run was met with surprised silence. Cowboy and I had beaten Becky and her fancy horse by two seconds.

I gained much more than a blue ribbon that day. At thirteen, I realized that no matter what the odds, I’d always come out a winner if I wanted something badly enough to work for it. I can be the owner of my fate.

1.Why did the author like Cowboy so much in spite of its ugliness?

A. Because she loved horses more than anything else.

B. Because Cowboy was a strong and smart young horse.

C. Because Cowboy had a lot in common with her pony.

D. Because she was sad and lonely and needed a companion.

2.The audience fell into silence at the end of the run probably because_________.

A. they didn’t expect Cowboy would win the event

B. they were unhappy that Becky was beaten in the event

C. they didn’t like cowboy, for it was too ugly

D. they never saw a horse running as fast as Cowboy

3.After the competition, the author came to realize that _______.

A. she ought to gather the courage to solve all the problems

B. it was time to forget her pony and treat Cowboy better

C. she needed to work harder to win more blue ribbons

D. she could be the god of her own fate if she tried hard enough

4.It can be inferred from the story that _________.

A. all of their hard training was totally in vain

B. a blue ribbon must be the second highest prize

C. Cowboy lost in the event of being judged by appearance

D. both Becky and the author won in the jumping event
