2．Kevin，diagnosed with Dyslexia（讀寫(xiě)困難癥），rarely spoke a word in class，and if he did，it would be a "Yes，" "No，" or "Maybe，" in response to questions．He always scored badly in tests and saw no hope for the future．That was until he met Sarah，an advisor at a youth center．
In 2012，Kevin attended a course called Ready Set Go in that center．The course was for disadvantaged kids in Kingswood - a low-income area in Sydney's western suburbs - and its goal was to teach the kids how to create businesses and offer value to the neighborhood．
At the end of the course，Sarah took the kids to the local area．She asked volunteers to share their business experiences - Kevin immediately put up his hand．His challenge was to trade his hotdog selling service for free bread at a bakery．Although scared，Kevin was able to share his entrepreneur（創(chuàng)業(yè)） story with the shop owner and asked if he could exchange his service for some bread．Unexpectedly，the shop owner told Kevin how moved he was by his story and handed him some bread for free．By the end of the afternoon，his belief in himself and what was possible was at an all- time high．
The following week，Kevin sold 70 hotdogs in two hours and made over ＄200．Soon after，he delivered public speeches in 20 schools，and was selected as part of his school's leadership team．Now he heads a business group working on how to increase potential customer base．
All of his would not have been possible if Kevin had not found his passion and perseverance to improve himself，and those around him．The guidance and trust of his advisor also helped to kindle his enthusiasm to go after his goals and dreams in life．

3．Time to end loneliness US author Henry Rollins once wrote： "Loneliness adds beauty to life．It puts a special burn on sunsets and makes night air smell better．" Indeed，in the eyes of artists，loneliness never seems to go out of style．There are paintings that portray loneliness，songs that are inspired by loneliness，and many works of literature that center around this theme．
In the eyes of UK economist Rachel Reeves，however，loneliness is far from romantic．Instead，it's a "giant evil" that's become a serious problem in the country．
So just how serious is it？On Jan 17，UK Prime Minister Theresa May appointed politician Tracey Crouch as the country's very first "Minister for Loneliness"．Her job is to address the loneliness that the country's been feeling - a problem which，according to UK government research，is affecting more than 9 million people in the country，and is more harmful to one's physical and mental health than smoking 15 cigarettes a day．
And the problem hasn't just appeared recently．Back in 2014，the UK was given the title of the "loneliness capital of Europe" by The Telegraph．A survey carried out by the newspaper found that British people were less likely to get to know their neighbors or build strong relationships with people than those from other European countries．
"There is something British about wanting to deal with problems yourself，" Christian Guy，director of the Centre for Social Justice think-tank （智囊團(tuán)），told The Telegraph．
But this doesn't mean that the problem only affects Britons．In fact，we're all suffering from loneliness now more than ever，in spite of most of the world now having access to the internet，which has enabled us to be more connected than ever．
What we need，according to Kim Leadbetter，sister of the late UK politician Jo Cox，is to have "proper human connections"．
"Our lives nowadays are so busy．We spend the vast majority of our time on our phones，on our laptops．We need to press pause on that and actually sit down and speak to human beings，" Leadbetter said at an event last year．
But the first steps toward fighting this problem are to accept its existence and not be ashamed or intimidated by it．After all，without loneliness，many beautiful paintings，songs，and literary works wouldn't even exist．And "evil" or not，being lonely is simply part of the experience of being human．
（1）What can we learn about the UK's loneliness problem？
A．The government is working to solve the problem．
B．More than half of British people suffer from loneliness．
C．The UK became the loneliest country in the world in 2014．
D．British people communicate less with their neighbors than ever．
（2）According to the text，social loneliness．
A．does more harm mentally than physically
B．didn't attract the public's attention until recently
C．is mainly caused by the wide use of the internet
D．has become a problem worldwide
（3）What does Leadbetter suggest doing to cope with loneliness？
A．Making more phone calls to our friends．
B．Stopping the use of electronic products．
C．Interacting with the people around us face to face more often．
D．Accepting its existence calmly．
（4）Which of the following would the author probably agree with？
A．Loneliness is a giant evil of society．
B．Only artists can appreciate the beauty of loneliness．
C．Loneliness is just a normal part of our life．
D．It is hard to find a solution to social loneliness．組卷：1引用：2難度：0.5

My swimming experience is extreme interesting.There was a time that I swam like a rock.This went on till one day when I was fishing with a friend of me at a nearby pond.I was so much careless that I slipped into it.Had my friend not come to my rescue，I would been drowned.Ever since then，I have come to knowing the importance of learning to swim.I didn't go to any training class and learned it all by myself.Now I have no difficult swimming at all.As the way I swim looks clumsy，at least it can keep me floating.Thinking of this，I feel quite satisfying.組卷：2引用：1難度：0.5
