After all, she recently celebrated her 90th birthday, and by the time she achieved that breathtaking(激动人心的) milestone, shed already done a 10-year st
21、retch in the Mississippi State Prison. Ms. Hord is a sweet-natured, gentle-talking, white-haired Southerner who never owed a debt to societythus, she never had to pay one. So you have to wonder what a woman like this is doing in a place where most people are itching to get loose. Unlike the rest of
22、the population, Ms. Hord goes to prison freely and eagerly. And when she gets there, she persuades prisoners of every sort to sing little ditties(短歌谣) about their ABCs and XYZs. At age 80, Ms. Hord began teaching prisoners to read during a chance visit to the State Prison with a lawyer friend. “When
23、 I got there, I heard that a group of volunteer workers had been praying for a teacher. They asked me if I would come and I said I would be thrilled(非常激动的）,“ she said. On a personal level, Ms. Hord considers this rewarding work. “If you get at the reason why these men went into crime, you will find
24、that none of them succeeded in their early years of schooling. They went to school at 5 believing they were going to learn to read. When they didnt learn in the first or second grade, they realized something was wrong. By 8, they were having problems. By 12 or 13, they were drinking or using drugs.
25、And its getting worse. Im seeing younger and younger prisoners who know less and less. They cant read well enough to function in this society,“ she said.

28、A.Many people volunteered to join Ms. Hord in her work.B.Most of the prisoners had no desire to learn as a child.C.Ms. Hord found it impossible to teach some prisoners.D.Ms. Hord took up her volunteer job by chance.(5).Ms. Hord regarded her job as_.（分数：2.00）A.uniqueB.valuableC.interestingD.tough27.T
29、ask 2Directions：This task is the same as Task 1The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 through 45_Scientists find that hard-working people live much longer than average men and women. Career women are healthier than housewives. Evidence shows that people without a steady job are in
