Are you stuck in a rut（車轍）and looking for a change? Fed up of seeing hungry, poor faces on your TV screen and want to do something to help? Perhaps you’ve considered volunteering overseas but ruled it out because you thought you were too old, couldn’t commit enough time, or have a family. If so, think again.
“Over the past five years it has become far safer --- and more professionally acceptable --- to take up a job volunteering overseas,” says David Stitt, managing director of Gap Year for Grown Ups, a company catering for volunteers in their late 20s and upwards. “While 10 years ago intrepid souls took financial and personal risks in volunteering abroad, now several organizations exist to make the experience safe and well-organized.
Nowadays, universities and business encourage overseas volunteering among students and employees. Entire families can volunteer abroad, and agencies are employing more disabled and retired people. A prosperous “humanitarian tourism” industry has sprung up; thousands of UK citizens will do some form of overseas volunteering this year.
“Some volunteering jobs are easier to find than others,” explains Kevin Cusack, from a volunteer advice agency. “If you can speak English, it’s not too hard to land a job teaching English, even without a qualification, and those who enjoy working with children should be able to find child care work.” zxxk
Whether your interest is rainforests or women’s rights, you can find a volunteer position to suit you. But be warned: unless you have relevant skills or existing overseas development experience, it’s going to cost. Just how much depends on the location and length of the position, but you should budget for somewhere between £1,500 and £6,000.
“Having to pay to volunteer may sound paradoxical (矛盾的), but it’s the best way to ensure you get a position that benefits the local community while matching your interests and skills,” explains Cusack. “You can also discuss the time you want to commit to a project --- many positions can fit into a holiday or even a weekend.”
1.The underlined words “intrepid souls” in Paragraph 2 most probably refers to ___________.
A．companies B．volunteers C．fighters D．students
2.In Kevin Cusack’s opinion, paying to volunteer overseas ___________.
A．must be incredible and unrealistic
B．can help volunteers learn more about another culture
C．may benefit both volunteers and the community they work in
D．needs confidence, courage and determination
3.What can we learn from the text?
A．Disabled people can also take up a job volunteering overseas.
B．In the past no one could take up a job volunteering overseas.
C．“Humanitarian tourism” industry is in its beginning stage.
D．Taking up a job volunteering overseas needs at least £1,500.
4.Where can we most probably read this article?
A．In a job guidebook.
B．In a celebrity biography.
C．In a guidebook to work overseas.
D．In a report on volunteer work.
5.What is the writer’s attitude towards volunteer work?

A good night’s sleep in the early years of life could be very important in preventing a child becoming obese, say scientists. Babies and pre-school children who sleep for less than ten hours a night are more likely to be overweight when they are older, research has found. Experts believe that those who do not get enough sleep are more likely to feel hungry and want more calorie-rich food during the day.
Former research has linked sleeping with obesity in adults and teenagers, but this is one of the first to look at very young children. Researchers from the Universities of Washington and California looked at the sleeping habits of almost 1,000 children under the age of five. They found those who had less than ten hours’ sleep were twice as likely to be overweight five years later.
Childhood obesity has doubled over the past 10 years. A quarter of secondary school pupils are now judged to be so overweight that their health is in danger. Experts believe sleep, or lack（缺乏）of it, could be a major cause of this. On average children are sleeping for an hour less than they did 30 years ago. Last year Chinese researchers looked at more than 5,000 youngsters and found that those who were able to catch up on （補充）sleep at the weekend were far less likely to get body weight problems. Scientists have also found a link between lack of sleep and diabetes（糖尿病）. Last year Canadian researchers discovered those who did not get seven or eight hours’ sleep a night were two and a half times more likely to become sick.
1.The underlined word “obese” in the first paragraph may mean .
A．quite protective B．very sad
C．very fat D．quite young
2.According to Chinese researchers, if a person who lacks sleep can get more sleep during weekends, .
A．he won’t get hungry easily B．he will feel tired all the time
C．there will be little chance of him becoming fat
D．it will be very hard for him to fall asleep at night
3.From the passage we know .
A．too little sleep will result in illness besides obesity
B．in the past people didn’t connect sleep with weight
C．fat children must have slept less than 10 hours five years ago
D．most children are unhealthy because of little sleep
4.What would be the best title of the passage?
A．A good night’s sleep helps the development of kids’ brain!
B．Ten hours’ sleep prevents overweight in kids!
C．Children are sleeping much less nowadays!
D．More teenagers get weight problems!
5.Where can you most probably read this passage?
A．In the latest news. B．In a children’s book.
C．In a health magazine. D．In a scientist’s diary.

BERLIN — With the crisis in Japan raising fears about nuclear power, Germany and Switzerland said on Monday that they would reassess（再次評估） the safety of their own reactors（[核] 反應堆）.
Doris Leuthard, the Swiss energy minister, said Switzerland would put off plans to build nuclear plants. She said no new ones would be permitted until experts had reviewed safety standards.
Germany will put off “the recently decided extension of the running time of German nuclear plants,” Chancellor Angela Merkel told reporters. “This moratorium（延緩）will run for three months and it will allow for a thorough examination of the safety standards of the county’s 17 nuclear power plants.
The European Union called for a meeting on Tuesday of nuclear safety authorities to assess Europe’s preparedness.
Germany’s foreign minister, Guido Westerwelle, called for a new risk analysis of the country’s nuclear plants, particularly regarding their cooling systems. He is the leader of the Free Democratic Party, which strongly supports nuclear power.
A previous government, led by the Social Democrats, passed a law in 2001 to close all the country’s nuclear plants by 2021. But Mrs. Merkel’s government changed that decision last year to extend the lives of the plants by an average of 12 years.
In Switzerland, Doris Leuthard said she had already asked to analyze the exact cause of the problems in Japan and draw up new or tougher safety standards “particularly in terms of seismic(地震的，與地震相關的) safety and cooling.”
In Russia, the Prime Minister said his government would “draw conclusions from what’s going on in Japan.”
