Section B (14%)
Directions：Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several
questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked
A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given
in the passage you have just read.
(A)
The first two years of Stuart Singer’s retirement were pure play, killing time
in the New York City by bike and visiting museums and art galleries.
“At some point, I realised I should do more than this,” said Mr Singer, a former
high school teacher.
Now Mr Singer, 74, and his wife Madine, 69, are involved in the Retired and Senior
Volunteer Programme. Mr Singer volunteers with the Community Health Advocates
Programme, which started in 2010. The programme helps consumers to know better about
the health insurance coverage(医疗保险). And it helps them to find access to low-cost
or free care. Mr Singer’s main task is to answer phones for the Community Health
Advocates’ helpline.
“There are lots of calls from different people who need medical care, but they
can’t get it because their insurance company won’t pay for it,” he said. “And
you got to go through doctors, and get the papers filled out. But when you get it
done, yeah, it feels good.”
The helpline helps about 250 callers each week and has saved consumers $12.1
million since it began. Mr Singer comes in once a week, helping 10 callers every
shift. In total, he estimates he has saved New Yorkers $443,000.
Despite the challenges, the work is a joy, not drudgery for Mr Singer, which
inspired his wife to sign up for volunteer training after she retired in late 2014
as vice president of the Insurance Information Institute. It put her fear of
retirement at ease.
Mrs Singer trained with the Advocacy, Counseling and Entitlement Services
Project before being placed with the Actor’s Fund, a national human services
organization for performing arts and entertainment professionals founded in 1882.
“It just seems so unfair that these people have trouble finding housing,” said
Mrs Singer. Since she started in early 2015, Mrs Singer has had more than 270
appointments with clients, from ticket takers to screenwriters to dancers. “Having
someone help them really means a lot to them,” Mrs Singer said.
Much of her work is helping clients who are applying for affordable housing sort
through a variety of income sources they receive. “It keeps the mind going,” Mrs
Singer said. “It keeps the social life going, and I’m doing something.”
35. In paragraph 2, this refers to_________.
A. riding bikes in New York City
B. visiting museums and art
galleries
C. spending Mr Singer’s life purely for fun
D. teaching in a high school
36. The word drudgery in paragraph 6 most probably means ________.
A. tiring training
C. inspiring training
B. boring work
D. exciting work
37. What does Mrs Singer think of her volunteer work?
A. Meaningful.
B. Easy.
C. Affordable.
D.
Relaxing.
38. Which of the following is the best title for this passage?
