Grossroads International
How does Grossroads work?
Crossroads is a resource network. We take goods Hong Kong doesn't want and give them to people who badly need them.We collect those goods and give them out in the welfare arena(福利院)in Hong Kong,Mainland China,elsewhere in Asia,Eastern Europe and Africa.So Crossroads is just that:a Crossroads between need and resource.
Who do we help?
The welfare agencies we help do not run on large budgets(預算).They are grass-root groups who have seen a need and tried to meet it.They can't get the job done without back-up,though,so our task is to help them do their task.Our warehouse is full of goods,from computers to high chairs,clothing to books,stationery to medical provision,cupboards to dining sets.They send us a list of their needs and we try to match it with the resource we have in stock.
How do we operate?
Crossroads itself also operates on a low budget.We do not buy the goods we send.They are donated(捐贈).Similarly,rather than raising funds for freight(貨運),we ask transport companies to donate their services.Nobody in our organization receives a salary.Even our full-time staff work on a voluntary basis.
Those that donate goods and services:
Factories Manufacturers
Hospitals Hotels
Educational Institutions Householders
Transport Companies Offices
Other Charities
One resource that we are always in need of is people.While we receive large quantities of goods and there is never a short supply of requests for them,we are always in need of hands to help sort and prepare them for shipping.
What can I do?
We are always in need of people.We have a lot of tasks.If you are volunteering regularly,we can offer work in some of the following categories,some of the time.You are welcome to number your top three choices and we will do our best to accommodate(提供) them.
Clothing categorization Sewing
Toy categorization Furniture handling
Book categorization Driving
Household goods categorization Office work
Electrical goods categorization Book keeping
Stationery categorization Fund-raising
Medical categorization

命題意圖：本題旨在考查學生選取有用信息進行推理判斷的能力，屬五星級題目。
錯解分析：本題錯選的原因主要在于對選項的理解不準確，以及對文章中的有關信息研讀不細致。
解題方法與技巧：（1）仔細閱讀題干，準確理解conclude一詞的準確含義（即：推斷，得出結論）。（2）仔細研讀選項，把握其準確意思，從文章中選取相關信息，與此對照，去偽存真。（3）文章首段告訴我們"We collect those goods and give them out in the welfare arena in Hong Kong…"，第二段作者又敘述道：福利院將人們的需求列成清單報給Crossroads,Crossroads負責配齊這些物品，由此可見，Crossroads doesn't give goods directly to the people who need them。
答案：B
2.When I opened my e-mail the other day,a pretty woman named Rachel appeared on my computer screen.She greeted me by name and started talking with great enthusiasm(熱情).Every now and then she stopped to smile at me or blow a kiss.She was reading to me an e-mail from my brother,and a lot of it was about the trouble he had getting the phone company to give him a high-speed Internet connection.It was pretty cool.
Rachel was there thanks to a new technology called Facemail.Facemail lets you send e-mail that gets read to the recipient(收件人) by an attractive male or female form or by a clown(小丑).The software,which is free,can be downloaded at www.facemail.com.
Facemail faces are lifelike,and they simulate(模擬) emotions based on emotions-for example-that you put in your text.Type in:-X,and Rachel blows a kiss.
Life FX,the company that develops the Facemail,is sure there are broad business uses.The reason e-business is not popular,the company says,is that buying over the Internet lacks the human touch.But what if you went to the Nike website and Michael Jordan greeted you by name,waited on you and personally closed the sale?And it is talking with Whirpool(惠爾普公司) about using the technology in a computer screen on a fridge.Then if Mom can't be home when the kids get back from school,she can leave a note with voice and image telling them what there is to eat.
Facemail could get hot fast.Personally,I'm a fan.But Facemail should be used with care.The clown looks lively and funny at first.But if you select the clown,put a few rude words in an e-mail and add some angry emotions,you've got psychomail(瘋人型電子郵件).
Question:We can infer from the passage that Facemail ________.
A.is likely to be used in other aspects(方面) of our daily life
B.can destroy your e-mail if not properly used
C.can be downloaded free of charge
D.will take the place of the e-mail system
命題意圖：考查推理判斷能力。屬五星級題目。
錯題分析：本題錯選B、C項的學生較多。主要原因是文章研讀不細和只重事實不重推理。
解題方法與技巧：（1）準確理解題干的關鍵詞匯"infer"，意為"推斷出"，故所選答案不可以是文章所列事實，以此可排除C項。（2）準確理解B項含義：如果使用不當，Facemail會毀壞你的.e-mail。在文章中找出相對應的語句：But if you select the clown,put a few rude words in an e-mail and add some angry emotions,you've got psychomail(瘋人型電子郵件)。此句含義并非Facemail can destroy your e-mail。（3）根據尾段前兩句話Facemail could get hot(流行) fast.Personally,I'm a fan,以及文章前部分對Facemail用途的描述，可得出答案。
答案：A
錦囊妙計
1.仔細閱讀題干，抓住關鍵詞匯。例：infer,conclude,imply,suggest,…
2.仔細研讀選項，把握其準確意思，從文章選取相關信息，與此對照，去偽存真。
3.站在作者立場思考，把握作者意圖，切忌推己及人，憑空臆斷。
4.注重依據事實推斷，不可簡單選擇和文中某一事實完全相同的選項。
