阅读理解

    Do you want to spend your summer holiday in a meaningful way? Do you want to make a difference to the lives of children? Join us now and become a volunteer teacher of English!

    We are a charity and we help children in poor areas in India. We need volunteers to join us and teach English to these children, and help make their lives better.

    Volunteer teachers will work with children aged 6 to15 and teach classes up to 30 children.

    We welcome volunteers with or without teaching experience. We will organize a two-week training programme before you go to India.

    This is a special chance to gain important life experience. You will meet other young people from all over the world, and learn more about Indian culture. Most importantly, you will make a difference to a community in need. Education can change a child's life forever. Help us make that change today.

    What our volunteers say:

    "This has been a wonderful experience. I loved teaching my class and India is a beautiful country. I'll never forget the three months I spent here!"

—Jane

    "After my 2-month volunteering experience there, I realize how lucky I'm at home. Some children in India live in very poor conditions, but they're very hard-working. They want to improve the lives of their families in the future. I'm very happy to be able to help them in some small way."

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中选出最佳选项。

Every year,Time magazine puts out its list of the year's best inventions.Some of them help us solve problems,while others make life easier or more fun.Here are three of the inventions on this year's list.Which one do you think is the best?

Life﹣like animals

At the Hologram Zoo(全息动物园) in Australia,you don't just see a giraffe.You see a group of giraffes running towards you and then over you."We show people things they have never seen before,"says the zoo's CEO.Visitors to the zoo can see life-like wonders.Thanks to hologram technology,the public can see wildlife while no animals have to be kept in cages.

Stopping fires

Alert California is a safety program in California.It uses AI to predict wildfires.The AI detector(探测器) uses more than a thousand cameras in forests across the state.It can spot smoke and other early signs of fire.In two months,the program correctly predicted 77 fires before any 911 calls came in.

Air on Mars

If astronauts land on Mars in the future,they'll need air to breathe and a way to get home.NASA's Moxie can help solve both problems.This small equipment can separate oxygen(氧气) from the atmosphere(大气) on Mars and help astronauts breathe.In addition,the oxygen can be used to provide energy for spaceships.This is important for sending astronauts home from Mars.
