(10 points) I stood on my grandmothers front porch with my son. He had a bottle of bubbles. You know the 1 : its basically soapy water with a plastic loop on each end. You dip the loop in the bottle, pull it out, and blow it to make bubbles. My son understood the principle but was 2 trying to blow bubbles. He 3 dip and dip and blow and blow, but alas, no bubbles. He 4 me the bottle and loop and asked me, “Daddy, can you make bubbles?”I hadnt blown bubbles in years. I am a 5 by education, fairly well-trained in surfactant(活性剂) technology. I have 6 several shampoos, so I understand surface tension and related foaming(发泡沫)characteristics of surfactants. All that knowledge is 7 useless when trying to blow bubbles from a loop 8 with soapy water. I was having no 9 success than my son. I dipped and puffed, still no bubbles; the soapy film on the loop would just pop without 10 any bubbles.After several fruitless 11 ,1 changed strategies. 12 puffing on the loop of soapy water, I gently 13 on it. My son screamed with delight as a big beautiful bubble formed and 14 away. He grabbed the loop, dipped and blew. No bubbles. I 15 to him, “Son, you cant blow hard. You must ever so gently breathe on the loop to make bubbles.” He contained his urgent 16 to make big bubbles by blowing hard and 17 my advice. Big bubbles.There are some things that you can get with 18 force, but other things like love or respect only 19 the gentleness of a soft breath. The 20 something is to higher spirit, the more it is like bubbles; it cant be forced. Blow beautiful bubbles; breathe easy.1、AtypeBcolorCsizeDliquid2、AexcitedlyBwillinglyCquicklyDvainly3、Acould .BwouldCmightDshould4、AhandedBlentCsentDbrought5、AteacherBdoctorCchemistDphysicist6、AboughtBdesignedCdevelopedDused7、AnearlyBhardlyCpartlyDcompletely8、AfilledBloadedCdottedDcrowded9、AlessBmuchCmoreDlittle10、AflyingBformingCkeepingDtaking11、AattemptsBperformancesCexperimentsDadventures12、AIn addition toBOther thanCInstead ofDIn spite of13、AtouchedBbreathedCfeltDtapped14、ArushedBjumpedCdroppedDfloated15、AexplainedBwhisperedCcomplainedDshouted16、AangerBdesireCmannersDdream17、AheardBfollowedCsharedDrefused18、AmildBweakCpowerfulDflexible19、Aresult inBcome toCconsist ofDarise from20、AdearerBfartherCsmallerDcloserSection II Reading ComprehensionPart ADirections:Read the following four texts.

(40 points)Text 1A blog posted Dec7,2018at12:17PM by Alanna MallonAlanna Mallon is a Cambridge City Councilor.Each year in November, I receive a flurry of emails and texts from friends who want to volunteer with their families on Thanksgiving as a way to give back. I also field phone calls from organizations who want to donate to local programs that provide Thanksgiving meals.However, as an official who still works in the nonprofit sector, I also feel deeply anxious because I know the other 51 weeks of the year, these critical programs that provide food access to residents in need are starving for both volunteers and donations. Hunger is a year round problem, and each week volunteers are the necessary part to ensure that programs are able to serve the community.At Food For Free, we rely on about 100 volunteers per week, and each of those volunteers is extremely important to providing fresh, healthy food to people in the Greater Boston area who need it. School children who take backpacks of food home on Fridays, community college students who rely on our Family Meals program to thrive in class, elderly and disabled residents who receive twice monthly deliveries of food to their doors through our Home Delivery program, they all rely on us ensuring enough volunteers show up to do the work.These volunteers dont show up in your social media feeds, they dont win awards and no one writes about them in the local newspapers. But they are heroes. And you can be too.If everyone made a promise to volunteer once a month, or even once a quarter, I know that we could reduce some of the anxiety these organizations feel, as a more reliable volunteer network allows them to focus on helping people, not filling volunteer slots.Here is a list of a few organizations who are doing critical work in Cambridge to address food insecurity. Offer your time to an organization, they will be deeply gratefuland I am going to bet that you will feel pretty good about yourself too.Food For Free:http:/foodforfree.org/vol
