.Chris is not a traditional explorer(探险家)—he usually works in an office for a large organization. However, Chris’ job can be just as exciting and dangerous as being an explorer.
Chris works for MSF, an organization also known as Doctors Without Border(国界). Since 1971, MFS has sent trained doctors all over the world to help people who have suffered from disasters, such as wars and illnesses. Chris is a doctor from France who has traveled to many places to organize programs that help people.
At the moment, over 27,000 trained doctors have taken part in MSF projects. The organization received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1999. All kinds of doctors can volunteer for MSF. They need to be ready to go almost anywhere in the world and, of course, they should face difficulties. Most of MSF’s work is in Africa. When MSF chooses a doctor for a task, they have to go for at least six months. When doctors have completed a few tasks, they might be sent on an emergency(紧急的) task following a disaster, such as an earthquake.
But why would doctors leave a comfortable life and a good pay to join MSF? According to Chris, the experience they have is a great help in their life. What’s more, just like the explorers of the past, they need to keep an open mind and learn to get on well with the people they meet. One thing that they can say at the end of any task is that they have made a real difference to people’s lives.
小题1:What may MSF’s work be like?
A.Tiring and boringB.Exciting and dangerous

小题2:As a volunteer doctor for MSF, he or she should ________.
A.have worked in Africa for six months
B.have been sent on an emergency task
C.be ready to work for a task for at least half a year
D.have suffered from wars, illnesses or other disasters
小题3:             Why would doctors like to join MSF?
A.Because they can get a good pay.
B.Because they can have a comfortable life.
C.Because they can help others and get experience.
D.Because they can travel abroad with their families.
小题4: What is the main idea of this passage?
A.Chris is a doctor who has organized programs to help people.
B.MSF received the Nobel Peace Prize for helping poor countries.

You either have it, or you don’t — a sense (感觉) of direction, that is. But why is it that some people could find their way across the Sahara without a map, while others can lose themselves in the next street?
Scientists say we’re all born with a sense of direction, but it is not properly understood how it works. One theory is that people with a good sense of direction have simply worked harder at developing it. Research being carried out at Liverpool University supports this idea and suggests that if we don’t use it, we lose it.
“Children as young as seven have the ability to find their way around,” says Jim Martland, Research Director of the project. “However, if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car, they never develop the skills.”
Jim Martland also emphasizes (强调) that young people should be taught certain skills to improve their sense of direction. He makes the following suggestions:
◆ If you are using a map, turn it so it relates to the way you are facing.
◆ If you leave your bike in a strange place, put it near something like a big stone or a tree. Note landmarks on the route as you go away from your bike. When you return, go back along the same route.
◆ Simplify the way of finding your direction by using lines such as streets in a town, streams, or walls in the countryside to guide you. Count your steps so that you know how far you have gone and note any landmarks such as tower blocks or hills which can help to find out where you are.
Now you need never get lost again!
小题1: Scientists believe that                           .
A.people never lose their sense of direction
B.some babies are born with a sense of direction

小题2: What is TRUE of seven-year-old children according to the passage?
A.They never have a sense of direction without maps.
B.They have a sense of direction and can find their way around.
C.They should never be allowed out alone if they lack a sense of direction.
D.They can develop a good sense of direction if they are driven around in a car.
小题3:If you leave your bike in a strange place, you should                             .
A.tie it to a tree so as to stop it from being stolen
B.remember something easily known on the route
C.draw a map of the route to help remember where it is
D.stay away from taking the same route when you come back to it
小题4:According to the passage, the best way to find your way around is to                .
A.ask policemen for directions
B.count the number of landmarks that you see
C.use walls, streams, and streets to guide yourself
D.remember your route by looking out for steps and stairs
