A
Roland was a carpenter in Virginia. He and Sheila had three kids—two boys and baby Jessica. The baby had been in and out of the hospital for the last whole year because of infections and other problems. She was very weak and sick. The doctors were not confident that she would live another year.
Taking care of Jessica was expensive. The family was deep in debt. Roland saw no light at the end of this tunnel. Then he saw an advertisement in the newspaper: “Security Guards wanted $ 100, 000 a year. $ 20, 000 bonus for extending the contract (合同) an extra year. ” He called the number. The line was busy, but he kept calling and finally got through. He was worried that the jobs were all taken, but they told him plenty of jobs were still available. They said they would give him two weeks of training in Texas and then fly him to Iraq for his assignment (任务).
Roland told Sheila he had to take this job. He knew it was dangerous; he might get injured or killed, but the money was too good. Besides, the family would have full medical benefits, which would enable the baby to get the care she needed. Roland said if he survived the first year, he would probably sign up for the bonus and a second year.
Sheila was worried. She asked, “What if you get killed? What are we going to do without you?”
“You can’t think like that, honey,\he said. “You’ve got to think positive. Think about how well off we’ll be in two or three years after I bring back all that money. This is the best thing I could do for this family.”
Sheila hugged him and sobbed. “I don’t want you to go.” Roland flew to Houston five days later.
21. What was the major problem facing Roland and Sheila?
A. Having few chances to find a well-paid job. B. Failing to pay off their heavy debts. C. Having no time to look after Jessica. D. Lacking the money to treat Jessica’s disease. 22. What do we know about the job Roland decided to take? A. It seemed quite appealing but was difficult to get. B. It provided medical benefits for the applicant alone. C. It required training before the assignment started up. D. It offered a salary of $120, 000 for a one-year contract. 23. How did Sheila feel after Roland described the job to her?
A. Anxious.
B. Proud.
C. Embarrassed. B
Volunteering to help people in need combined with traveling to faraway places is a new trend in the travel industry. It is called voluntourism. People travel to other countries, learn languages and other cultures, and gain new experiences. On the other side, they volunteer to help others who are not as well off as they are.
Recent statistics show that in the past few years voluntourism has been one of the fastest-growing areas of tourism. More than 1. 6 million people around the world are volunteers in other countries. They work in orphanages (孤儿院) , help build schools, assist in hospitals and do farming work in developing countries. Some of them develop lasting bonds with people far away.
There are many reasons why people want to take part in voluntourism. Students see it as a period of time when they can take a break before going to university; others simply want to take time out from a job and do something else. Then there are those who are bored and merely seek adventure. However, many voluntourists do not see volunteering as what it is. They think it is a cheap way of traveling and don’t really want to get involved in hard work.
Not everyone sees voluntourism in a positive way. Critics (评论家) say that if people really want to help those in need there are many opportunities in their own
D. Moved.
