only do you travel to an exotic country, you also meetlike-minded people, and at the end of it all you have something to put on your cv to impressemployers withbut did you ever stop to think about how great it is for the people on the receivingend? in this context, daniela papi has a point-foreigners rushing heroically to volunteer in acountry theyve never heard of are unlikely to make a difference. but turning volunteering campsinto classrooms, as papi seems to advocate in her article, risks throwing the baby out with the bathwater by putting people off of volunteering. rather, learning should be a natural part of the. experience, and the key to creating such anenvironment is positioning everyone as equals. in order for that to happen, volunteers needcompetent leaders who create an environment of equality: when, a few years ago, i joined a group of international volunteers to help a small farmingcommunity in the swiss alps, we were all quite ignorant about the local conditions. but thanks toour group leader, it was both a helpful project for the locals and a fun and eye-opening experiencefor usbefore we had even traveled (at our own expense) to the mountaintop village, our groupleader had spent time with the villagers preparing the project to make sure it would be of benefit tothemshe. arranged for us to help in different areas, ensuring that we always worked alongside locals rather than for themit was never us and them, but always. we, like a big family. as a result, conversation flowed and we learned a great deal just by casually talking to the locals as we worked at the end, we left with a deep appreciation for the labor of love that goes into producing the food we eat every day一一an appreciation we could treasure ourselves and share with our peers volunteering isnt about saving someones life, or even about changing it. its about touching a different world and reminding ourselves that there is much, much more to life than the daily routines we take for grantedwith that knowledge, maybe, just maybe, we can go on to really change the world by lukas thibaut56from paragraphs i and 2, we can learn thatin international volunteering. a foreigners are not welcome in some local communities b. blind enthusiasm fails to make the experience rewarding c. the author agrees with daniela papis opinions dinternational volunteering is actually a poor approach to education57the underlined word that in paragraph 3 refers to， a a natural part of the experience bthe learning of volunteering c. creating such an environment d. positioning everyone as equals58what contributed to the success of the authors volunteering project in the alps? a the volunteers were quite fatni！iar with swiss farmers lives. b the volunteers worked in areas separated from the locals. cthe group leader ensured that the project would be beneficial to both sides. d，the group leader ensured that the volunteers got to know the local conditions59. from the authors viewpoint, what should international volunteers avoid? a. placing themselves above the locals. btaking food for granted. c. disrespecting others labor. d. being proud of volunteering.60. which best describes the authors attitude toward international volunteering? a. objective. b. doubtful. c. disapproving. d. supportive. b phantom vibrations-the phenomenon where you think your phone is vibrating but its not-have been around since the mobile agetoday, theyre so common that researchers have devotedstudies to them for valerie kusler, who works on a cattle farm, the feeling is complicated by the cows“thecowsmoo is very muffled, it kinda sounds likeerrrrrr,”she says.“so thats very similar to whatmy phone sounds like when it vibrates on my desk or in my purse.” other people may not confuse cows for their phones, but research shows phantom vibrationsymptom is a near-universal experience for people with smartphones nearly 90 percent of college undergraduates in a 2012 study said they felt phantom vibrations. the number was just as high for a survey of hospital workers, who reported feeling phantomvibrations on either a weekly or monthly basis “something in your brain is being triggered（触发）thats different than what was triggeredjust a few short years ago,” says dr larry rosen, a research psychologist who studies howtechnology affects our minds. “if youd asked me 10 years ago, or maybe even five years. ago if i- felt an itch beneath where my pocket of my jeans was, and asked me what i would do, id reach down and scratch it because it was probably a little itch caused by the neurons firing（神经元刺激），”he says. now, of course, the itch triggers him to reach for his phone. rosen says its an example of how our devices are changing how our brains process information “were seeing a lot of what looks like obsessive behavior. people who are constantly pickingup their phone look like they have an obsession. they dont look much different from someonewhos constantly washing their hands. im not saying that it is an obsession, but im saying that itcould turn into one, very easily, rosen says. while 9 out of 10 participants in the study of college students said the vibration feelingbothered thern only a little or not at all, rosen still recommends backing away from our phonesevery once in a while to keep our anxiety levels down “one of the things im really adamant about in spite of being very pro-technology, is justaway from the technology for short periods, rosen saysand by short periodsi mean; maybe just 30 minutes or an hour.”61 according to the article, phantom vibrations_ a are mainly caused by neurons firing b affect people mostly working on farms c help our brains better process information d. started troubling people in recent years62the underlined word adamant in the last paragraph probably means_ a curious bdetermined c. satisfied d. cautious63it can be concluded from larry rosens research that_ a. phantom vibrations could probably result in obsessive behavior b the use of smartphones has completely changed the way our minds work c. most people feel uncomfortable when they experience phantom vibrations d. hospital workers are more likely to suffer from phantom vibrations than students64according to larry rosen, the most effective measure against phantom vibrations is to_ a move to a quieter neighborhood b stop using smartphones in poor condition c. take a break from using smartphones occasionally d. keep a close watch on your anxiety levels ccurrency)new zealand
