　　这是一篇人物叙述类的篇章，讲的是一位年仅12岁的男孩Mike Hannon，向镇上2000名无家可归的居民提供了爱心午餐。该镇镇长对于Mike的行为表示高度赞扬，Mike的父亲也为自己的儿子感到骄傲，不过Mike表示自己并不是为了这些称赞，而是希望善意能得到传递。截止到今日，Mike的网络筹资已达到44,000美元，整个国家的人们也纷纷给Mike送去手工袋子。

　　Q19: What does Mike Hannah do to help people in his town?

　　答案：【A】Give free meals to the homeless.

　　解析：既然本文的开头引入这位12岁的男孩Mike Hannah，肯定会问这个男孩做了什么。文章的第2句话，“Mike’s Lunches of Love” has fed more than 2,000 of the town’s most vulnerable residents. ，本句话的重点是lunches of love爱心午餐，既然是爱心午餐必然是免费的，因此选项给出的答案是free meals, 同时，紧接着的下句话说delivers meals to the homeless，再次精确了答案的内容，因此选【A】。

　　Q20: What does Mike hope others will do?

　　答案：【C】Follow his example.

　　解析：本道题是文章理解题，在出现了镇上和父亲的称赞之后，出现了转折词Yet，之后陈述了Mike行为的真实目的，but kindness in return以及 He hopes his active charity will influence others to spread positive actions in their own towns.，也就是Mike爱心午餐的目的是希望善意能得到传递，他的行为可以影响其他人，总结出来是答案【C】Follow his example，Mike希望其他人像他一样帮助关爱他人。

　　Q21: How are people all over country responding to what Mike is doing?

　　答案：【B】Sending him hand-made bags.

　　解析：相比于第20题，21题答案相对简单，其他的人们被Mike的行为所感动sending special handcrafted bags，此处的handcrafted手工制作的和选项里的home-made做同义转换，其他词未发生改变。
