题目内容
19.[1]Twenty-five years ago in San Diego,Karen Lange was asked by her neighbor,the husband of a woman who had unknowingly picked up HIV,for help.Everyone else had turned their back on the couple and the husband was desperate.Despite only knowing them for a short time,Karen agreed.[2]The woman was in the last stages of a life.By her side,spending time with her and caring for her,was not her family,not her friends,but her next-door neighbor.In those moments,Karen's personal purpose in life became clear as she realized the major difference that we as individuals can have on another person's life.
[3]After her friend passed,Karen became involved in a local grass-roots organization called Mama's Kitchen,delivering meals to the critically ill,and eventually becoming a Board Member.She says that shethrew her energy in volunteering as a way to"help me feel better after her death and all the pain that I had seen."
[4]After a few moves around the country,Karen landed in Baltimore.At that time,some aspects of her life were‘‘difficult,''and she was working hard to get"out of a rut."Despite focusing on eating right,exercising,and trying to surround herself with positive people,she stayed in this rut,until she returned to volunteering.
[5]"It was volunteering at Moveable Feast that finally helped my soul and heart to heal,"Karen recalled.She found in the Bahimore-based nonprofit the same task as Mama's Kitchen in San Diego-to people living with HIV/AIDS and other life-threatening conditions.
[6]That is Karen's true gift-to be proof that giving of our own resources,especially our time,can have a massive life-changing impact on the lives of others,while also showing that volunteering helps you become a healthier,more positive person.

解答 66.He was picked up HIV unknowingly.第一段的第一句话"the husband of a woman who had unknowingly picked up HIV"可以看出,她的邻居莫名的感染了艾滋病.
67.It helped her soul and heart to heal.第五段开头"It was volunteering at Moveable Feast that finally helped my soul and heart to heal"提到从事志愿者工作帮助了她洗涤心灵治愈创伤.
68.devoted herself to"threw her energy in"指奉献,致力于,类似"devote…to../dedicate..to..".
69.provide food to 根据"the Bahimore-based nonprofit the same task as Mama's Kitchen in San Diego"这句话,看出the Bahimore和 Mama's Kitchen 类似,都是给需要的人提供"delivering meals to the critically ill".
70.Volunteering can have a massive life-changing impact on the lives of others./Volunteering helps you become a healthier,more positive person.
根据最后一段"That is Karen's true gift-to be proof that giving of our own resources,especially our time,can have a massive life-changing impact on the lives of others,while also showing that volunteering helps you become a healthier,more positive person."可以很容易概括出答案.
