piece of technology with us every time we leave the house What I always forget though is just how useful and powerful technology can be when we want to help others There is not a single room in my house that does not have some electronic devices 设备 Whenever I am at home I am almost always using at least one electronic device If you walk into my living room on any given day you will find that first I have the television on At the same time I usually have my laptop resting on my knee or I am using my mobile phone Even when I m not at home I am always using my phone and at work or in cafes I sit down and connect to the local wireless network on my laptop I must say that I waste a lot of time on the computer and the time I spend on it could be much better spent if I were to take up a little online volunteering Recently I discovered just how much online volunteering there is to do in the world From using your language skills to do translations to developing and managing projects and helping with IT 第 8 页 共 20 页 work there is so much that so many people can do to help people in their own countries and across the world The United Nations in fact has a huge page with Volunteers Recruited on its website This work can support the poor and help charities who cannot pay for staff members Many organizations only require you to work an hour a week some even less And the support

children are really happy to forget about school for a few months The summer vacation is the best time for students They can go outdoors and have fun They can go to big cities to go sightseeing or go to the countryside to enjoy the beauty of nature However studies have found that children forget between one and three months worth of school learning during the summer months Spelling and math abilities are seriously influenced because of the long vacation while reading is not really influenced by the time off The most probable reason for this is that most children usually read at least outside of the classroom whether newspapers magazines books or video game guides However their math and spelling skills only get exercised in the school setting The first summer vacation appeared because the farm children have time off to help work in the fields in the high growing season but this reason is no longer valid since fewer kids actually work on farms today Some cities in the United States such as Los Angeles Have moved to a year round school calendar which will bring less influence in their studies Most cities still use the normal nine and a half month calendars To improve skills and to have a good level of preparation 第 10 页 共 20 页 experts suggested trips to museums summer camps and visits to libraries to keep kids active and interested the whole summer There are other educational systems that provide vacations while still keeping students skills in a high level For example in Japan students attend class for seven weeks continuously followed by two weeks of vacation This continues go through all the year In Italy students attend class six days per week but finish at 1 30 p m each day so that school does not manage their life the way that it does in America Educational experts fear that the three month summer vacation stops the continuity of learning Just as students get used to new ways in reading writing or critical thinking skills then the summer vacation comes they shut down for a long period When they go back to school after the vacation they take up to two months to return to their previous level of understanding And so the debate continues whether to continue the present vacations or to seek changes 1 The students abilities of the spelling and math are influenced in the summer vacation because they A take the summer vacation too seriously B do little work of math or spelling C don t like spelling and math D have to help work in the fields 2 What can we learn from the passage A Students may keep reading in summer vacations B The United States has stopped summer vacations C The summer vacations have no influence on students skills D Now most children still work on farm in summer vacations 3 What does the underlined word valid in the second paragraph probably mean A acceptable 第 11 页 共 20 页 B aimless C imaginable D valueless 4 What is the best title for the passage A Do we need new Educational Systems B Do summer vacations confuse students C Should summer vacations be changed or not D Should students improve ability in vacations 19 8 分 阅读理解 The world is not hungry but it is thirsty It seems strange that nearly
