did visit ...属于“do/does/did+动词原形”构成的强调句型。这种强调句只有一般现在时和一般过去时,且只对肯定的谓语动词进行强调,不用于否定式和疑问式。do在句中要重读。在祈使句中使用时,往往不表示命令,而表示强烈的请求,并且表达更为客气的语气。

Nina Simone is considered by many to be one of the finest singers and songwriters of her generation. She is also one of the most powerful symbols of the civil rights movement in America.
She was born in 1933 in North Carolina. At the age of seven she was already performing music in a local church, later moving to New York to study classical piano at the Juilliard School of Music, a rare opportunity for a black woman in the 1950s.
Nina became deeply involved in the American civil rights movement, capturing the tragedy and pain of the assassination (暗杀) of Martin Luther King in her song Why?
The King of Love Is Dead. She later made another attack on racial injustice in the
US with her song Mississippi Goddam, written after a bombing of a church in Alabama that killed a group of black schoolgirls.
In 1969 her song To Be Young, Gifted and Black made her a role model for AfricanAmerican women and became an anthem (颂歌) for the movement to end segregation (种族隔离) in the United States. The jazz singer Dee Dee Bridgewater later declared, “I would say the person who influenced me the most as a young black girl was Nina Simone because she was so outspoken.”
In 1974, after becoming disappointed with life in the United States, she moved
.
.
to Barbados for a while before settling in the south of France in the early 1990s. In an interview in 1998 she said that her protest songs had been her personal attempt to defend the rights of American blacks. Nina blamed racism in the United States for her decision to live abroad, saying that racial inequality in the U.S., even then, was “worse than ever”.

The meaning of the word “volunteer” may be a little different in different countries, but it usually means “one who offers his or her services”. There are many different ways in which people can volunteer, such as taking care of sick people, working in homes for homeless children, and picking up garbage (垃圾) from beaches and parks.Volunteers may work within their own countries or in other countries.They are often people with a strong wish to help those who are less fortunate than themselves.Volunteers don't expect any kind of pay.
At the root of volunteering is the idea that one person may have the ability to offer services that can help other people.Tracy, a good friend of mine, however, recently came back from India with a new idea of what being a volunteer means.She worked for two and a half weeks in one of Mother Teresa's homes in Calcutta.The following is her story.
“I first heard about Mother Teresa in my high school.We watched a video about her work in India and all over the world.I was so moved by her spirit to help others and her endless love for every human being that after I graduated from high school, I wanted to try her kind of work, too.So with two friends I flew to Calcutta for a few weeks.”
“I was asked to work in a home for sick people.I helped wash clothes and sheets, and prepare lunch.I also fed the people who were too weak to feed themselves and tried to cheer them up.I felt it was better to share with them than to think that I have helped them.To be honest, I don't think I was helping very much.It was then that I realized that I had not really come to help, but to learn about and experience another culture that helped improve my own understanding of life and the world.”
语篇解读:本文以“志愿者”为切入点,讲述了特蕾西对“志愿者”新的理解和体会。 5.According to the text, a volunteer refers to a person who ________. A.is willing to help those in need without pay B.can afford to travel to different places C.has a strong wish to be successful D.has made a big fortune in life
解析:选A 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“one who offers his or her services”和“Volunteers don't expect any kind of pay.”来判断。
.
.
6.Why did Tracy choose to be a volunteer? A.Because she liked to work with Mother Teresa. B.Because she had already had some experience. C.Because she was asked by Mother Teresa to do so. D.Because she wanted to follow Mother Teresa's example.
解析:选D 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“I was so moved by her spirit ... I wanted to try her kind of work,too.”可知。
7.What is Tracy’s “new idea” (Paragraph 2) of being a volunteer? A.Going abroad to help the sick. B.Working in Mother Teresa’s home. C.Doing simple things to help the poor. D.Improving oneself through helping others.
解析:选D 推理判断题。第三、四段都是讲述她的经历的,从文中最后一句可知“new idea”的含义。
8.What is the best title for the passage? A.How to Be a Volunteer B.Voluntary Life in India
C.A Different Meaning of “Volunteer” D.Inspiration from Mother Teresa
解析:选C 主旨大意题。本文以“volunteer”作为导入,讲述特蕾西对特蕾西的新体会。C项切合文章的主题。
