1.Brother James Kimpton,an Englishman,has been planting trees for a lifetime and doesn't plan on stopping now.The founder of Reaching the Unreached (RTU) has been serving among the poorest and most disadvantaged communities of India for the last 50years.It's difficult to describe Brother Kimpton's work.He digs wells,builds homes,run schools,dresses wounds,helps the disabled,feeds the hungry,trains the unskilled,and shelters the abandoned.At 27,he was sent on foreign duty to Sri Lanka.For 12year,he taught in the slums(贫民窟).In 1964when the government ordered all foreigners to leave the country,he caught a ship to India and travelled to the city of Madurai."The minute I got there I knew I'd come home."
Brother Kimpton founded an orphanage(孤儿院)in Madurai,a huge organization modeled after Nebraska's Boys Town.But this was only a beginning.The suffering and helplessness he saw in India led him to start RTU.What began as a single,modest medical clinic has today developed into a diverse network of highly efficient programs aimed at comprehensive and sustainable (可持续的)rural development.
There're many wonders at RTU.As an architect,artist,educator,economist,medical worker,James did a lot:over 2000wells have been dug in this area bringing clean,safe water to the villages; over 6000homes have been built and given away to the very poor; daycare centers have been set up that now feed and treat close to 2000poor children every day; over 2000receive free education in the schools he built and runs…
In his last will,Brother Kimpton has requested to be buried at Anbu Illam.Speaking to the audience gathered to celebrate his 50th year of service in Asia,he said,"I'm an Indian by choice."
He's smiling,but there's something touching in his words.

解答 51-54 DBCA
51.D 细节理解题.从第二段倒数第二句he travelled to the city of Madurai可知A是错误的,从第三段的第一句可知B是错误的,从全文可知他一生中做过很多事情,都是在帮助别人,而没有说是做过很多工作目的是为了谋生,故C也是错误的.
52.B 句意猜测题.原文没有提到他到了Madurai 受到欢迎,故A是错误的;从第一段第一句可知他是英国人,故D是错误的;在斯里兰卡12年,受到政府驱赶,因此他来到了印度,故C说他熟悉印度是错误的.
53.C 推理判断题.从第一段最后一句可知C是正确的.从第三段第四句可知A是错误的,不是medical school 而是modest medical clinic;
54.A 主旨大意题.从第四段的第一句以及后面的一系列数字表明了RTU的成就.
点评 做阅读时经常犯错的主要原因是,仅凭读过文章后残留在脑海中的一丝印象来勾选答案,这样便很容易掉入出题人故意设布下的题目陷阱.所谓阅读理解,对于题目的理解一定要忠实于原文,因此,每一道题都应该与原文作全面的对比与核查,再得出答案.也就是说,阅读理解的每一道题目,在原文都应该有明确的出处,我们把这一出处叫做原文相关句,(1)排除与原文相关句主题不一致的选项(2)排除与原文相关句态度相反的选项 (3)排除用于过于极端或负面的选项(4)注意结合文章主旨和主题去排除.
