4.When Lydia Nash appeared on the TV programme Who wants to be a millionaire(百萬(wàn)富翁)?and was lucky enough to win£16,000,she decided to give all the money away.This is not surprising if she has been rich or famous,but Lydia is a 19-year-old student.
Lydia gave all the money to a charity which helps the children whose parents are dead.She had worked there as a volunteer for the past three years.She first visited orphanage(孤兒院)at the age of seventeen,and she felt very sad by what she saw.
Some of her friends at university thought that maybe she had made the wrong decision.Some people said she should have saved it to buy a house or to pay for her education.She said,"That really worried me.Students seem to live in an unreal world,where they always complain (抱怨)about being poor.But there's a very big difference between our situation and people who have no money."
With the help of the money Lydia gave them,the charity has just finished building"Rainbow House",a new building that will house 50 children whose parents are dead.
If Lydia had won a million pounds and not only£16,000,would she still have given away all the money?She said,"Before going on the show I thought a lot about what it would be like to have a lot of money and I realized that I wouldn't like it at all.And then,of course,as I had been to the orphanage and had seen all the work that needed to be done,I knew how useful that money could be.It was far more important for the charity than it could ever be for me.I think I got more enjoyment out of giving the money away than if I had kept it for myself."

61.Is Lydia a student?Yes,sheis.
62.When did she first visit the orphanage?Attheageofseventeen.
63.What do her friends at university think she should do with the money?Somepeoplesaidsheshouldhavesavedittobuyahouseortopayforhereducation.
64.Who is Rainbow House built for?Forchildrenwhoseparentsaredead.
65.What kind of person is Lydia according to the passage?( At least 2 points)She is kind,good,warm-hearted and generous..

64.For children whose parents are dead.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.考查彩虹屋是給誰(shuí)建造的.根據(jù)第三段"With the help of the money Lydia gave them,the charity has just finished building"Rainbow House",a new building that will house 50 children whose parents are dead"可知,慈善機(jī)構(gòu)用Lydia捐助的這筆錢建了一個(gè)可容納50名失去父母的孩子的"彩虹屋".所以,"彩虹屋"是為孤兒建造的.children whose parents are dead那些失去父母的孩子們.故回答For children whose parents are dead.
65.She is kind,good,warm-hearted and generous.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.考查莉迪亞是個(gè)什么樣的人(至少兩點(diǎn)).根據(jù)第二段中"Lydia gave all the money to a charity which helps the children whose parents are dead"可知,她是個(gè)有愛(ài)心(kind),并且慷慨大方(generous)的人.故回答She is kind,good,warm-hearted and generous.

Even small danger like getting their feet wet or falling down seems very terrible to them.
Many people think the survival activities are good for children.Even years later,they will still remember what they have learned.Some have learned to stay calm in different times.Some have learned how to keep safe.Others have learned how to work in a team.All these skills will help them a lot in their lives.

59.Why do people like"Survival Holidays"?Because they think being close to nature is good for children.
