Help or Not
Dear editor,
During last year's winter holiday, I went shopping with my grandmother. We saw several beggars. Some of them were disabled, which made me feel sad. Among them were old people, young people and even children! When I wanted to help them, my grandmother stopped me. She told me they were not worth showing mercy to because some beggars cheated people out of their money. Should I help them?
Yours,
Mary from Guangzhou
Dear Mary,
While I understand your grandmother’s point of view, I think that just because some beggars have cheated people, this doesn’t mean you should never help any beggars.
Showing mercy to people who are not as fortunate as us is one of the kindest things we can do. While some beggars may use dishonest means to get money, most beggars will not. Even those who use dishonest means are probably hungry for food and feel they have no choice but to cheat people. It is important to be careful for your own safety. But if you want to help, you don’t necessarily have to give it to beggars in the street.
Another way you can help is by donating money to the China Charity Federation. Visit its website at: www. china charity. cn.net.

(答案→)B 解析：对一些乞丐是否帮助？本文作者和编辑的回答将给你个满意答复。【小题1】细节理解题。Mary的祖母阻止她可怜乞丐因为有些乞丐具有欺骗行为，符合题目部分否定所表示的意义。【小题2】细节理解题。从原文“Some of them were disabled, which made me feel sad.”可以得出答案。【小题3】推理判断题。编辑在回信中建议Mary应该对那些不幸者给予援助。本题易误选D。【小题4】词义理解题。从回信的最后不难推出，单词的意义是“捐赠”。
