The Maldives guarantees the whitest sand beaches and an unforgettable underwater world. Here are places
that you can visit here.
Patina Maldives, Fari Islands
The Fari Islands sit in the northeast of the North Male Atoll, a 45-minute speed boat ride or a 15-minute
seaplane flight from Elana International Airport.
Unlike most of the other places on this list, Patina recently opened so you can check in right now if you’re in
need of an urgent escape.
Avani+ Fares Maldives Resort
Just a 30-minute seaplane ride from Velana International Airport, the Avani+ Fares Maldives Resort sits on an
island surrounded by a lagoon in the west of the resort.
Unique and remarkable biodiversity can be found in its coral reefs, sea grass beds and mangroves. Watch out
for hawksbill turtles, rays and friendly reef sharks.
Villa Haven
If you’re a deep-sea diver, this place will provide a luxurious base as you explore the resort’s many

Their botanical gardens produce coconuts, tropical fruits, vegetables and herbs that will all be served up in
Villa Haven’s restaurants, while sustainable local materials are also being used in the construction of the resort.
Conrad Maldives Rangali
The twin-island property boasts some firsts including the world’s first ever undersea restaurant and first
underwater bedroom.
To mark the resort’s anniversary, 50 over-water villas have been revitalized, as have three restaurants and
bars. Brand new additions include an adults-only gym, Majaa Explorers Hub and restaurants and the Furaavaru

Last year, Abraham Olagbegi got the news that he got a disease and needed a bone marrow transplant (骨髓移
植). About a year later, the 13-year-old boy got much better news: His transplant was successful, and he could join
Make-A-Wish, an organization that helps fulfill (完成) wishes of children with serious illnesses.
That was when Abraham shared an idea with his mom. “I remember when we were coming home after seeing
his doctor, he said, ‘Mom, I thought about it, and I really want to feed the homeless,’ ” said Abraham’s mom,
Miriam Olagbegi. “I said, ‘Are you sure, Abraham? You could do a lot... You’re sure you don’t want to play video
games?’ ”
However, Abraham was uninterested in the PlayStation. Instead, in September, Make-A-Wish helped
Abraham organize a day to hand out free food in Jackson, Mississippi — the food and supplies were donated by
local businesses. They were able to feed around 80 people that day.
“When the homeless people get the plate, some of them would come back and sing to us and thank us,” he
said. “And it just really feels good. It warms our hearts. My parents always taught us that it’s a blessing (好事) to
be a blessing.”
Abraham’s efforts are not over just yet — Make-A-Wish will help Abraham feed the homeless on the third
Saturday of every month for a year. This will last through Aug. 2022, but Abraham already plans to keep it going
much longer than that by starting the organization “Abraham’s Table”.
“We’re just very excited to be able to continue on this attempt,” Abraham’s mom said. “If I was out there on
the streets, I would want somebody to think of me and to do something special for me. So, that’s what I try to teach
my kids and we just try to pay it forward, by doing what we were raised to do.”
4．Why did Abraham’s mom ask him the questions in paragraph 2?
A．She noticed his hesitation. B．She was worried about his illness.
C．She doubted whether he was serious. D．She hoped he could give up his old habit.
5．What do Abraham’s words in paragraph 4 show?
A．He is happy to help others. B．He realized his mom was right.
C．He is thankful for others’support. D．He felt sure he had fully recovered.
6．What is Abraham’s plan?
A．To volunteer for charities as usual.
B．To start a restaurant for the homeless.
C．To continue giving the homeless food.
D．To find public support for “Abraham’s Table”.
7．Which of the following can best describe Abraham’s mom?
A．Fearless and humorous. B．Strong-willed and calm.
C．Hard-working and independent. D．Understanding and responsible.
C
When I first heard about Summit Learning, I admitted I was not a bit happy and excited at all. I thought it
would require interactions with others. But later, I was astonished when I got to experience it firsthand.
Recently, we did a poetry project, and one of the activities was a peer (同龄人) review. I would never have
taken part if it was up to me, as I preferred to work independently. But when I got involved, I found in the
experience, I had done something that I thought was nearly impossible it made my poetry better. My partner
informed me of my mistakes and told me where I could give more detail.
One of our final products of the project was to present our poetry to the class. I’ve always loved public
speaking, but I thought with Summit Learning, I would have fewer chances to speak. I was wrong. The peer
activities we did with a partner gave me more belief in my ability and inspired me to do more to make my
presentation the best it could possibly be.
Interactions like these are what Summit Learning is all about. This style of learning brings a positive and
hard-working culture that allows us to push our boundaries and keep going. It creates a sense of community since
