A
Zachariah Fike has an unusual hobby.He finds old military(军队的)medals for sale in antique stores and on the Internet.But unlike most collectors,Zac tracks down the medals’rightful owners,and returns them.
His effort to reunite families with lost medals began with a Christmas gift from his mother,a Purple Heart with the name Corrado A.G.Piccoli,found in an antique shop.Zac knows the meaning of a Purple Heart-he earned one himlf in a war as a soldier.So when his mother gave him the medal,he knew right away what he had to do.
Through the Internet,Zac tracked down Corrado’s sister Adeline Rockko.But when he finally reached her,the woman flooded him with questions:"Who are you？What antique shop？"However,when she hung up,she regretted the way she had handled the call.So she called Zac back and apologized.Soon she drove to meet Zac in Watertown, N.Y."At that point,I knew she meant business,"Zac says."To drive eight hours to come to e me."
The Piccolis grew up the children of Italian immigrants in Watertown.Corrado, a translator for the Army during WWII,was killed in action in Europe.
Before hearing from Zac,Adeline hadn’t realized the medal was missing.Like many military medals,the one Zac’s mother had found was a family treasure."This

这是一篇记叙文。Zachariah Fike有一个不同寻常的业余爱好：他在网上和古董店里寻找旧的军队勋章，然后将这些勋章归还它们的合法主人。文章主要叙述了他这一爱好的起源。【21解析】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Zac knows the meaning of a Purple Heart—he earned one himlf in a war as a soldier”可知，当Zac还是一名士兵的时候，在一次战争中他获得了一枚Purple Heart。故A选项正确。
【22解析】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“To drive eight hours to come to e me”可以推知，Adeline 为了那枚Purple Heart开车八个小时来见Zac，由此可知，她对于这件事是认真地。因此，At that point,I knew she meant business应该指的是Zac意识到Adeline对这枚勋章是认真的。故B选项正确。
【23解析】
推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Corrado,a translator…was killed in action in Europe”和倒数第三段中的“as I grew older…and misd my brother more and more,I realized that was the only thing we had left”这枚勋章寄托了Adeline对于去世的哥哥Corrado 的回忆和思念，这是他们家留下的唯一关于哥哥的东西了。因此她很珍惜这枚勋章。故D选项正确。

People quickly caught on.And while many took dollars,many others pinned their own cash to the board.“People of all ages,races,and socio-economic(社会经济的)backgrounds gave and took,”said Tyler Bridges of The Toolbox,which created the project."We even had a bride in her wedding dress come up to the board and take a few dollars."Most of the bills on the board were singles,but a few people left fives, tens and even twenties.The video clip(片段)shows one man who had found a$20bill pinning it to the board.
“What I can say for the folks that gave the most,is that they were full of smiles,”Bridges said.“There’s a certain feeling that giving can do for you and that was apparent in tho that gave the most."Most people who took dollars took only a few, but Bridges said a very small number took as much as they could.
While the clip might look like part of a new ad campaign,Bridges said the only goal was to show generosity and sympathy.He added that he hopes people in other cities might try similar projects and post their own videos on the Internet.
“After all,everyone has bad days and good days,"he said.“Some days you need
a helping hand and some days you can be the one giving the helping hand.”

这是一篇新闻报道。短文报道了上个月在洛杉矶的联合车站，一块牌子上别针别满了美元，上面写着“给予你所能给与的，拿走你所需要的”。这样的活动吸引了各种各样的人，组织者希望通过这样的活动来提倡仁慈和同情。
【24解析】
词义猜测题。由第一段“But at Union Station in Los Angeles last month,a board went up with dollar bills attached to it with pins and a sign that read,"Give What You Can,Take What You Need.”可知，但是上个月在洛杉矶的联合车站，一块牌子上别针别满了美元，上面写着“给予你所能给与的，拿走你所需要的”。所以通过下文的语境，判断出第1段中的money with no strings attached是“无条件提供的钱”的意思。故B选项正确。【25解析】大学全文
