Instead of getting the latest video game system or meeting a celebrity, a young boy who was diagnosed with a life-threatening illness last year has used his Make-A-Wish opportunity to help the homeless in his community.
Abraham and his mother, Miriam, have a passion for taking care of the homeless around their neighborhood in Jackson, Mississippi.The pair have a history of providing food to the needy every third Saturday, and they recently got added help from the Make-A-Wish foundation in Mississippi after he was diagnosed with a rare disease, aplastic anemia, in 2020.
The condition causes the body to stop producing enough new blood cells, leaving patients exhausted and easier to suffer infection and uncontrolled bleeding.Abraham later experienced a successful bone marrow transplant （骨髓移植） and found out he was qualified to have one of his dreams fulfilled by Make-A-Wish.It didn’t take long for Abraham to think of the perfect choice.He would continue the mission that was important to him and his mom.With the help of the foundation, Abraham fed about 80 people in Jackson in September.
When the homeless people got the plate, some of them would come back and sing to them and thank them.“And it just really feels good; it warms our hearts.And my parents always taught me that it’s a blessing to be a blessing,” Abraham said.
Not only that, but Make-A-Wish said they would help Abraham feed the homeless in Jackson every third Saturday until August 2022, ensuring that he could help even more people in need.
Abraham did receive a few gifts from Make-A-Wish, including a new laptop, a ring light, and a microphone to help him start a channel on a social media platform.He also plans to start a non-profit called “Abraham’s Table” to continue his mission.
1.How often do Abraham and his mom offer food to those in need
A.At least once a day. B.At least once a week.
C.At least once a year. D.At least once a month.
2.What can we infer about Abraham from Paragraph 3
A.He is doing what he wants to do. B.He has been completely cured.
C.He decided to support his family. D.He got a mission from an organization.
3.What does Abraham mean to do
A.Send more Make-A-Wish cards. B.Start a public welfare program.
C.Join a non-profit organization. D.Feed the homeless every Saturday.
4.Which of the following can best describe Abraham
A.Determined and patient. B.Ambitious and creative.
C.Imaginative and practical. D.Caring and considerate.

Fire threats and environmental concerns have prompted some US cities to give up traditional Fourth of July fireworks in favor of spectacular drone （無人機） light shows this year.
Maybe most importantly, the drones being employed by more and more cities for Fourth of July celebrations don’t leave behind a blanket of smoke at a time when America’s air quality is already at its worst in decades.Cities making the switch to high-tech shows say there’re plenty of other reasons people may want to avoid traditional fireworks.
“Fireworks can be harmful to folks who suffer from PTSD or families who have dogs.Salt Lake City has more households with dogs than we do with kids,” said Lynze Twede, an events manager for Salt Lake City Public Lands.The Southern California cities of La Jolla and Ocean Beach also cited animals as a key driver behind their switch to a July Fourth drone show: A 2017 lawsuit claimed that local sea lion pups were bothered by the booming sounds.
There’s also the risk of starting actual fires with annual fireworks shows.An estimated 12,264 fires were started by fireworks displays in 2021.
But data also shows that much of the wildfire risk comes not from grand public displays, but from the small-scale shows set off on streets and sidewalks.Consumer-grade fireworks usage spiked across the US in recent years, when people looked for ways to celebrate life’s milestones in their own backyards.
Trying something new has been met with mixed reaction from the community but, as Dan Kingdom, owner of WK Real Estate in Boulder, says,“The turn away from fireworks is considered by many to be the way of the future.Drones are reusable, and with fireworks, you have smoke, other fallout like debris, the noise stresses out dogs and people with PTSD.”
It may be too early to tell how the new trend in alternatives at the city level may get close to smaller shows and consumers, but price is a limiting factor: Those high-tech displays are expensive.
5.What is the top consideration of people in Ocean Beach when choosing drone shows
A.Reducing fire risks. B.Protecting animals.
C.Improving air quality. D.Preventing noise pollution.
6.What can we learn about America from the last three paragraphs
A.Grand public displays cause the most wildfires.
B.Small-scale shows lead to more wildfires.
C.The usage of fireworks has been on the decrease.
D.Drones will replace fireworks very soon.
7.What is Dan Kingdom’s attitude to choosing drone light shows for celebration
A.Doubtful. B.Confused.
C.Supportive. D.Surprised.
8.What is the passage mainly about
A.How Americans celebrate special events.
B.The harm fireworks have done to America.
C.The development of drone shows in America.
D.Why US cities choose drones instead of fireworks.
