     Our local Community (社區(qū)) Youth Club is a very popular organization with young people in my town.
I have been a member for four years now and I've taken part in a lot of interesting projects. These include
fun activities such as holiday camps and discos. We have even made a video.
     But it isn't all just enjoyment. We have also started doing social work to help people in our neighbourhood.
We have organized activities for small children during the holidays. We have also formed a special support
group to help young people stop smoking.
     We are particularly proud of the most recent group we have created. It organizes regular visits to the local
home for the elderly. This idea came from a school visit to a home for the elderly. My class spent an afternoon
at the home and everyone found the visit very rewarding (有意義的). The old people at the home were excited
by our visit. They were very talkative (健談的) and they told us their personal stories. During our visit, the
home was full of the sound of laughter. We sang songs and played games with the old people and had tea
together. But we realized that life wasn't always easy. Some of them were in poor health and were very
unhappy. They couldn't go outside and the visits by children brought some sunshine into their lives.
     Many young people like me have very little contact with elderly people. As a result, we have a lot of wrong
ideas about them. We have little or no idea of the kind of lives they lead in the homes. After this visit, my
friends and I decided we should do something to help improve the quality of their lives.
     Since the creation of our visiting group over twenty volunteers have joined us. Up to now, we have
organized three group evening parties and a concert. But I think the individual (單獨的) visits are the most
important. Club members regularly visit old people and everyone finds the experience rich and rewarding.
1. Is the writer a member of the Youth Club?

5. Put the sentence "They couldn't go outside and the visits by children brought some
    sunshine into their lives." into Chinese. 
     _____________________________________________________.
1. Yes, he／she is.
2. The old people felt excited by the children's visit.

     Whenever the sun dropped and the blue sky came up, my father and I used to climb the mountain near
my house. Walking together, my father and I used to have a lot of conversations through which I learned
lessons from his experiences. He always told me, "You should have goals like climbing the mountain."
Without the mountain-climbing that we both enjoyed, we couldn't have enough time to spend together
because my father was always busy. I really got a lot from mountain-climbing. It gave me time to talk with
my father and to be in deep thought as well as develop my patience.
     Once we climbed a very high mountain. It was so challenging for me because I was only ten years old.
During the first few hours of climbing, I enjoyed the flowers and trees, and the birds' singing; but as time
passed, I got a pain in both of my legs. I want to quit climbing. In fact, I hated it at that moment, but my
father said to me,"You can always see a beautiful sky at the top of the mountain, but you can't see it before
you reach the top. Only there at the top, can you see all of the nice things, just like in life." 
     At that time, I was too young to understand his words. But later after that, I got new hope and confidence.
I found myself standing at the top of the mountain. And there, I could see the whole of the sky, which was as
clear as crystal (水晶).
1. The passage tells us that mountain-climbing was ______ for Father and Son.
A. hard
B. enjoyable
C. painful
D. comfortable
2.  The word"quit" in the passage means "______".

A. ou will get all you need at the top of the mountain.
B. The sky is always as clear as crystal.
C. You can find life is full of nice things.
D. Never give up half-way.
4. We can infer (推斷) from the last paragraph that ______.
A. the writer was very successful in his life
B. the writer reached the top of the mountain.
C. though the writer was young, he could understand his father.
D. the writer used to stop half-way when he climbed the mountain.
5. The best title for the passage is "______".
A. Reaching the Top of the mountain
B. Standing at the Top of the Mountain
