　　Up to now,John has helped 15 children from poor coun-tries all over the world, $ 200 amonth for each. The child does not receive the money in cash(现金). The money pays for the child’s school expenses, food, medical care and cloth-ing. John receives a report each year on the child’s progress. They can write to each other, but usually the children do not speak English.
　　When John first heard about these children, he wanted to help them. “It was not anything special,” he said, “Until I had the chance to go to these countries and meet the children I was helping, I did not know anything about the type of life they had.”
　　Once John went to meet a little girl inAfrica. He said that the meeting was very exciting. “When I met her, I felt very very happy,” he said, “I saw that the money was used for a very good plan. It brought me closer to the child in a way that giving money alone cannot” “ I want to do every-thing I can. I will go on helping those children in need, “he added.

　　第一个问题是细节题，询问John过着怎样的一种生活。由文中的句子John decided to keep living a simple life like everyone else. 可知：他的生活简朴。因此第一题可填入simple life.
　　第二个问题是推理题，文章开头说His college friends were looking for their first jobs, but he didn’t have to. John decided to keep living a simple life like everyone else.说明他想和别人一样过普通人的生活。很容易对这个选择疑问句作出回答，注意对选择疑问句的回答方式，不要画蛇添足。第2句的回答： He wanted to look for a job.
　　第三个问题是细节题，根据John has helped 15 children from poor coun-tries all over the world…可知这个一般疑问句的回答：是No. (He helps other children.) / No, he doesn’t.
　　第四个问题是细节题，这是个反意问句，由文中的The child does not receive the money in cash(现金) The money pays for the child’s school expenses, food, medical care and cloth-ing.可知回答是No / No,he doesn’t.
　　第五个问题要求考生用短语或词填空，这是推理题，问：为什么John同小女孩的见面令他激动?题目中已给出了部分回答：Because he saw his money was well used and this made him_____________.短文 “When I met her, I felt very very happy,” he said, “I saw that the money was used for a very good plan. It brought me closer to the child in a way that giving money alone cannot” 可以判断空里应填feel happy / closer to the child.
　　第六个问题是归纳总结题，要求考生在理解全文的基础上，对主人公的人品进行归纳评价。最合适的回答是：a kind(generous) person。
