14.Five years ago,when I taught art at a school in Seattle,I used Tinkertoys as a test at the beginning of a term to find out something about my students.I put a small set of Tinkertoys in front of each student,and said:"Make something out of the Tinkertoys.You have 45 minutes today and 45 minutes each day for the rest of the week."A few students hesitated to start.They waited to see the rest of the class would do.Several others checked the instructions and made something according to one of the model plans provided.Another group built something out of their own imaginations.
Once I had a boy who worked experimentally with Tinkertoys in his free time.His constructions filled a shelf in the art classroom and a good part of his bedroom at home.I was delighted at the presence of such a student.Here was an exceptionally creative mind at work.His presence meant that I had an unexpected teaching assistant in class whose creativity would infect(感染) other students.
Encouraging this kind of thinking has a downside.I ran the risk of losing those students who had a different style of thinking.Without fail one would declare,"But I'm just not creative."
"Do you dream at night when you're asleep?"
"Oh,sure."
"So tell me one of your most interesting dreams."The student would tell something wildly imaginative.Flying in the sky or in a time machine or growing three heads."That's pretty creative.Who does that for you?"
"Nobody.I do it."
"Really-at night,when you're asleep?"
"Sure."
"Try doing it in the daytime,in class,okay?"

9.Homelessness is a big problem across the world.Many people and organizations are working to solve it.Mel Young from Scotland and Harald Schmied from Austria are two such people.In 2001,the two men attended(参加)an international conference about the problem of homelessness.Later,they began to wonder if football could help solve the problem.In 2003,they decided to start the Homelessness World Cup organization.It chooses and trains local homeless people for the yearly football competition.Today,about 500 people from almost 50 countries play in the Homeless World Cup.And the program is changing lives.
Damien is from Ireland.For many years,he struggled with drug addiction(吸毒成瘾).But in 2006,he played for Ireland's Homeless World Cup team,and since then,he has been drug free.
Many of the Homeless World Cup players,like Damien,have struggled with drug addiction.However,some players are homeless because of poverty(贫穷).Alex is one of them.He says,"I was born in Mathare,the biggest,worst slum(贫困窟)in Kenya.I could not find anything to eat.Also schooling was a problem.My life started when I started playing football."Football gave Alex joy.It taught him to work hard and helped him believe that he could achieve something.
Football can even help people who have experienced extreme tragedy.Najib,a young man from Afghanistan,has lived through much war.Many of his family members have died.But football has helped him survive."It is only during the games that I do not think about my situation.I'm not interested in anything other than football and it's the only thing I desire,"Najib explains.
Drugs,poverty and war are common causes of homelessness.Playing in a football competition may not directly treat drug addition,solve poverty or end war.But it can give people emotional(情感上的)strength and help them learn important life skills.

28.What do we know about the Homeless World Cup?A
A.It is held every year.

B.began to live a rich life.
C.got a good school education.

30.What does the underlined word"desire"in Paragraph 4 probably mean?C
A.remember.
B.watch.
C.want.
D.create.
31.What would be the best title for this text?D

C.End homelessness from now on.
