【题目】根据材料内容,选择正确答案。
People have travelled around the world in quite small boats. It is not an easy thing to do. Sometimes the weather gets bad, and that can be the end of everyone in the boat. Accidents can happen easily and quickly.
One family once had an accident because of some big fish. The fish swam under their boat and bit holes in it. Sea water came in and the boat soon sank. However, these people had another small boat-a lifeboat, and they all got into it. They lived and hoped for many days. At last a ship found them.
How do sailors(海员) live in a very small lifeboat for a few weeks or even a few months? They must be strong in every way. They must have hope and they want to live. They cannot drink sea water. If they drink a lot of sea water, they will soon die. They can drink rainwater. They must catch rainwater. They must also catch fish and birds for food. A lifeboat does not carry a cooker, so they cannot cook their food. Raw meat is not very nice, but there is no other choice in a lifeboat!

【题目】Holding doors open, picking up rubbish, thanking people these acts of kindness seem very small. But students at Tibbetts Middle School know that it’s the small acts that make the world a better place.

Eighth-graders from New Mexico, US, took part in the Random (随意) Acts of Kindness Week from Feb 10 to 14. During the week, they tried their best to do kind things for others, or for the environment.

Celeste Murray, an English teacher at the school, started the activity. “I believe the world is changed by little things,” she told the local newspaper. Over the week, Murray said she has seen changes in her class. Previously, she asked her students to push the chairs in after class. Now, the students do it by themselves. “The teachers will have less work,” said Elisea Castaneda, one of Murray’s students.

Jordin Marshall, another eighth-grader, spent the week giving out praise (赞扬). “It makes that person’s day (使那个人开心),” she said. “Besides helping others, the activity made students feel that they can make a difference,” Murray said.

Eighth-grader Haley Echols decided to continue to do at least one act of kindness every week. She believes her acts could encourage others.
