Campbell Remess taught himself how to sew when he was only 9 years old.It all started three years ago,when Campbell asked his parents if they could buy Christmas presents for kids in hospital.They were touched by his kindness,but told him that buying so many toys would be too costly.He is one of nine children,and buying presents for all of them was already a pretty expensive affair for the parents.
Campbell didn’t let a simple “no” discourage him from bringing a bit of joy to kids going through tough times,so he decided to make the presents himself.It took the 9-year-old boy five hours to create his first stuffed (填充的) toy.However after three years of practice,he is now able to put one together in just an hour.
“I was blown away by the first bear,” his mother said,“Overly impressed but not surprised at his determination to teach himself.” The successful experiment only inspired
Campbell Remess to become better at sewing,and challenged himself to create one stuffed toy per day and donate them to sick children struggling in the hospital.Project 365 by Campbell was born.Over the last three years,Campbell Remess has created over 800 stuffed toys for sick children.
Campbell sends his toys to children all over the world,and still visits the Royal Hobart Hospital in his home city of Hobart,Tasmania,to personally gift toy animals to sick kids there and loves to see the reaction on their faces.“They smile and some hug me.It makes their whole day better,” he says.
“Campbell is just wired really differently.He looks at sadness and tries to turn it upside down,” his mother says.“He’s not a quitter—I only see bigger and brighter things from him.”
4.Why did Campbell’s parents refuse his request? A.They thought that was ridiculous. B.They wished him to depend on himself. C.They were on a tight budget.
D.They hoped he could share his things with others.
5.What desire drove Campbell to make toys for sick children? A.Bringing happiness to them. B.Showing kindness to them.
C.Encouraging them to treasure health. D.Proving to them everyone has creativity. 6.What can we learn about Campbell from the text? A.He is planning to set up Project 365. B.He sends toys to those who can’t afford one. C.He made the first toy with his mother’s help. D.He is determined and refuses to give up.

语篇解读:位于乌镇的三珍斋酱鸭博物馆吸引了大量的游客来参观酱鸭的制作工艺,并品尝美食,这提升了品牌效应,也增加了销售量。 答案及剖析:
1.a 句意为:一所博物馆成功吸引了很多游客来了解有百年历史的酱鸭制作工艺并进行品尝。设空后的recipe为可数名词且为单数形式,表示泛指,故填a。
2.located 句意为:这座5 000平方米的博物馆坐落在乌镇景点的旁边。分析句子结构可知,主语为museum,谓语动词为covers,设空处应为非谓语动词作museum的后置定语,且主语museum和locate为逻辑上的被动关系,故填located。
3.was built 句意为:它的建造旨在让公众了解其品牌文化。主语It和谓语动词build之间为被动关系,故填was built。
