Travelling abroad一、閱讀理解。Mahendra, a former senior officer at the State Bank of India, talks about his disabled and wounded dogs like a father about his childrenwith the same love, affection, and warmth. Hes a well­known animal rights activist, the secretary at People for Animals (PFA). But nothing explains Mahendra better than his love for animals. It was this love that led him to establish Indias first shelter home for dogs living with disabilities. It all started in 1998 when, while taking a midnight walk, Mahendra came across a very weak dog on the street, whose bones were seen under its skin. Mahendra decided to feed it and for the next couple of days it became the centre of his life, until the night when he found it dead. Since then, Mahendra started providing treatment to all wounded and sick dogs he came across. After some time, somebody told Mahendra about PFA, Indias largest animal welfare organization, chaired by Mrs Maneka Gandhi. Mahendra contacted her and, impressed by the work he was doing, Mrs Gandhi asked him to start a PFA chapter in Ahmedabad. Thus, in 2014, he started the shelter. It took a long time for Mahendra to find land where the shelter could be set up. Finally, Ramesh Bhai Patel, a farmer from a village named Jundal, agreed to give his land for nothing. Along with a team of four doctors and many volunteers, the shelter now has twenty­five dogs that were unable to walk at all when they were brought in. Today, theyre slowly healing. Dogs that have healed with proper treatment are sent back to where they came from if the environment there is safe. However, the shelter will be home to the blind dogs for all their lives, says Mahendra. The shelter runs on the money ing from Mahendras own pocket. There have been some financial crunches now and then but Mahendra is determined that no matter what challenges e their way, theyll fight through.1.From Paragraph 1, what can we know about Mahendra?A.His affection for animals.B.His love for senior people.C.His care for disabled people.D.His devotion to protecting his children.2.Mahendra decided to do something for animals because of _.A.the death of a homeless sick dogB.his meeting with a sick dog one nightC.the encouragement of Mrs GandhiD.his contact with the organization PFA3.In his effort to build the shelter, Mahendra _.A.spent much money hiring a landB.received little support from othersC.got a free land from a farmerD.was financially supported by the government4.What does the underlined word “crunches” in the last paragraph mean?A.Aids.B.Markets.C.Services.D.Difficulties.參考答案： 1.A; 2.A; 3.C; 4.D解析： 1.細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)第1段“But nothing explains Mahendra better than his love for animals.

The explanation was in4that a child could understand but was basically correct. I gained a better5later, but I didnt have to unlearn anything. What he said was that there was electricity in the clouds6it traveled to the ground like a spark. When it traveled7the air it made the air so hot that it8. Then there was nothing where the air had been and the air all around rushed in to9the space. He clapped his hands together very loud, 10 to be the air rushing in, and said that makes the thunder. When I hear thunder, I can still hear that11. He explained why if it was cloudy in the winter the night was warmer than if it was12. It was one of those nights when the sky was full of stars: no moon, no town lights. But there were more stars than you could13and they had color too. He said that if there were no clouds, we had no blankets and were 14to the universe. Our warmth was going to15the whole universe. When there were clouds, they were like blankets and we were not exposed to the universe. I 16feel on the edge of space on a very clear night. I am sure there were many other lessons that I17but no longer remember. What I did18, in general, was that there were explanations and that the more I understood them, the more fortable the world was to live in.
