     This is time of year when we think about giving and receiving presents. Can you find a little
extra(额外的东西)to give? On this page we suggest a few organizations you might like to help.
Littleton Children's Home
     We don't want your money, but children's toys, books and clothes in good condition would be very
welcome.
     Also,we are looking for friendly families who would take our children into their homes for a few hours
or days and give them not only food but also love. You have so much-will you share it?
     Phone Sister Thomas on 55671.
     Children's Hospice
     We look after a small number of very sick children. This important work needs skill and love. We
cannot continue without gifts of money to pay for more nursing staff(员工). We also need story books and toys suitable for quiet games.
Street Food
     In the winter weather, it's no fun being homeless. It's even worse if you're hungry.
     We give hot food to at least fifty people every night. It's hard work, but necessary. Can you come and help? If not, can you find a little money? We use a very old kitchen, and we urgently need some new
sauce pans. Money for new would be most welcome indeed.
     Contact Street Food, c/o Mary's House, Elming Way, Littleton. Phone 27713.

let us have a few pounds? Any amount, however small, will be such a help.

      Like a growing number of young women in Vietnam's northern part city of Haiphong, Pham Thi Hue
was infected with HIV by her husband, one of the town's many drug users. But instead of being shamed
into silence, as Vietnamese with HIV and AIDS are, the 25-year-old tailor and mother of one child went
public, appearing on television and at conferences. Her business suffered and her neighbors insulted (辱骂)
her, but Hue has now become the public face of Mothers and Wives, an HIV/AIDS support group established
in Haiphong by a Norwegian nongovernmental organization and her neighborhood's People's Committee. Last
year, she founded a smaller group named after a local flower. People who need advice on treatment or help
can dial a hot line and get assistance from able and empathetic (同情的) HIV victims. "We gather to support
each other," Hue says. "When we are sick, what we need most is encouragement and comfort from people
who understand our situation and are willing to share our happiness, as well as our sadness."
      On a hot and damp night last month, Hue welcomed into her small home a very thin woman, also a tailor,
who was HIV positive. The woman tearfully told Hue that she had not told anyone about her condition, fearing
that she would lose customers and that her daughter would be insulted at school. Hue became the wise elder,
offering medical and personal advice.
1. What did Pham Thi Hue do after she was infected with HIV?
[     ]
A. She kept silent.
B. She worked as usual.
C. She stayed at home and cried every day.
D. She went public and gave help to others.
2. It can be inferred from the passage that the group Pham Thi Hue founded is made up of ______.
[     ]
A. drug users
B. HIV victims
C. all kinds of patients
D. poor people
3. From the passage we can learn that Pham Thi Hue is a woman who is ______.
[     ]
A. weak and kind
B. foolish and idle
C. brave and helpful
D. cautious and energetic
