After Maggie Doyne graduated from high school, she decided to spend a year traveling the world before starting college. The journey changed her life and the lives of hundreds of orphaned children forever.

In 2006, Doyne took a trip in Nepal, Asia. Having grown up in New Jersey, Doyne was shocked to see so many orphaned children living on the streets. She wanted to do something about it. Doyne used her savings to buy an acre of land. Then, she built the kids a home, the Kopila Valley Children's Home.

Now, the Do Something foundation is doing something for Doyne. The organization provides resources and support for teens that want to make a difference in the world. On Thursday night, the foundation named Doyne the $100,000 prize winner of the 2009 Do Something Award.

The Kopila Valley Children's Home officially opened its doors in 2008. Doyne, now 22 years old, cares for 26 kids. She has helped more than 700 other orphans find families. She also runs a program that provides scholarships for needy families to send their children to school. The children learn basic skills such as sewing and cooking. They also grow their own food in their garden and raise farm animals.

Doyne admits that she didn't have it all figured out when she first arrived in Nepal. "I just felt that there was something there for me," she said. Her parents were supportive of her. But it was a challenge to convince other adults that an 18-year-old girl could accomplish such a big project. Still, Doyne never gave up on fund raising. In just over a year, she had enough money to build her dream home.

"When all the kids are sitting at the table for breakfast, or they're happy and all dancing . . . it's the best feeling in the world." she says.

If you are a fan of the Newbery-Award winning book Bridge to Terabithia, then you're going to love author Katherine Paterson's new creation The Day of the Pelican(鹈鹕). In the book, Paterson takes readers on a journey with 12 year-old Meli Lleshi and her Albanian family of seven.

The family lives in Kosovo, in eastern Europe. The country is at war with neighboring Serbia. Eventually, life becomes too dangerous in Kosovo, so the Lleshis have to pack up and move out of their home. To Meli, leaving meant giving up her whole life. She will have to say goodbye to her friends, home, school and Baba's market. Worse, the family's trouble began, in Meli's mind, when she drew a picture of her teacher with a pelican nose and had to stay after school as punishment.

As the Lleshis travel along the road at night, they come across burning homes and other refugees just like them. Living in a tiny tent surrounded by many other people becomes tiring, and but for Baba's and Mama's efforts to keep the family together, the family would probably have given up. Every night, Meli longs to go home and Baba tells her, "Your home is with your family." With everyone already crowding together for food, now is not the time to complain. The family needs all their courage to keep going. "We have to be very patient and very brave," Meli says.

Soon, traveling from place to place becomes too much of a hassle(争论) and nearly breaks the family apart. Baba makes an important decision. The family will be moving to an exciting new country. There will be no enemies and no one to run from. They will be able to stay in one place and build a new life. Although Meli still longs for home she wonders if this will finally mean freedom for her family.

The Day of the Pelican is a book you won't be able to put down. Those who enjoy realistic fiction will love this moving story about Meli and her family.

67. What’s the author’s purpose in writing this passage?

A. To tell us how happy we are to live a peaceful life.

B. To explain how the Lleshis survived the war.

C. To get us to learn about a new book.

D. To introduce a book Bridge to Terabithia

68. Why did the family move to other countries?

A. Because they wanted to find well-paid jobs.

B. Because they had to escape from the war.

C. Because Meli and her family needed food.

D. Because they just looked for adventure.

69. The third paragraph is mainly about _______.

A. Baba’s importance during the trip

B. complaints about the life journey

C. various difficulties as travellers

D. ways to get the family together

70. From the passage we can learn that ______.

A. The Day of the Pelican won the Newbery-Award

B. Meli no longer longs for home in the new place

C. the family found the freedom and settled down

D. without Baba’s encouragement the family would have broken
