22、 Sophia Joffe is a Toronto-area high school student at Country Day School who created eLearn. fyi : an online database compiled (编译)of more than 300 online learning tools. Students are able to access her website to create an online learning profile where they can manage their studies in an approach.
The Grade 12 student used her own experience shifting from a classroom setting to an online platform as inspiration for her program.
“It was really difficult and it was really stressful knowing that right after the outbreak of the COVID-19 we jumped into a totally new online learning system --- it was quite different from an in-class instruction," said Joffe in an interview with CTV's Your Morning on Friday.
She expected that there would be added resources to help students cope as they shifted to an online learning environment9 but her expectations fell short. Not only were there few available, but resources lacked quality, she said.
Like many students, Joffe is concerned the COVID-19 pandemic has caused learning loss for many students. Her goal isn't only to reduce the stress the pandemic has put on students, but remove learning loss altogether.
As was first reported in the New York Times, Joffe invested $ 19 — the cost of hosting a website -- and created eLearn. fyi. By October, Joffe's online traffic had 500 unique visitors from more than 40 countries. The program categorizes grades from Kindergarten to Grade 12, and then breaks subjects down, making it easier for students to digest classroom material in a simple way. Joffe's website clearly organizes students' classes and takes them to simple apps and websites that help guide them through any given subject.
Joffe hopes the Canadian government will one day work in partnership with tech companies to modernize the learning experience and the platforms like Netflix could pose an opportunity where students can stream classes at their own pace while having their entire education at their fingertips.
【1】What did Sophia Joffe initially think of online learning?
A.It was less different from classroom learning.
B.It really made her feel more or less stressed.
C.It was an effective way to fight the COVID-19.
D.It provided a good opportunity to create eLearn. fyi.
【2】What made Sophia upset at the beginning of online study?
A.Not getting adequate and qualified resources.
B.Not knowing how to obtain study materials.
C.Having no experience on running a website.
D.Finding it a tough job to host a website.
【3】Why did Sophia create eLearn. fyi?
A.To gain some income by investing a small sum.
B.To get her online database far more perfect.
C.To collect some useful learning resources.
D.To give a hand to those who are learning online.
【4】What can be inferred according to the sixth paragraph?
A.The eLearn. fyi has brought Joffe a big income.
B.Joffe has benefited students at home and abroad.
C.Joffe also sells some learning apps to students.
D.The eLearn. fyi creates a similar classroom environment.
23、Every Wednesday, I go to Cantata Adult Life Services, a local retirement community in Brookfield, Illinois, US, with my classmates to do community service.
After my very first visit to Cantata, my life changed forever. That may sound a bit dramatic, but volunteering with the elderly has changed my views on life.
Our visits last about an hour, and we bring 25-30 students every time. We play board games and cards with the residents while we’re there.
You can watch all the movies and TV shows you want about “life back then”, but nothing compares to talking to the people who were actually there. Just hearing their stories has touched me in a way I never thought possible.
Whether it was talking to 98-year-old “Hurricane Hilda” about her glory days as a roller skater or chatting with Lou about the times she danced with a famous actor, I was completely attracted by every single memory the residents wanted to share with me.
Even the residents who don’t have amazing memories make the experience satisfying . I remember visiting Mrs Robinson. She couldn’t recall much about her past, but she told me she’d never forget how kind I was just to listen to her “rambling (漫谈)”. It made me realize that it’s the little things that make life worth living. That’s something I won’t forget anytime soon.
If there’s one thing I’ve realized in my three years of visiting Cantata, it’s that presence – just being there – means more than anything to many of the residents. And despite how busy our lives are, there’s always time to make someone’s day.
For me, it feels great to be a source of happiness, a smile on a bad day or a listening ear for old memories. And at the end of the day, that’s all that matters.
It’s easy to feel like you don’t have anything in common with the elderly – especially when you’re a teenager. But that’s not true at all.
I hate to be overly clichéd (陈词滥调的) here, but age really is just a number. As young adults, it’s important for us to realize this sooner rather than later. We can learn a lot from the elderly, and they can often benefit from teenagers too.
【1】What do the volunteers do according to the passage?
A. They share everything with the residents.
B. They play board games and cards with the residents.
C. They watch the residents play games.
D. They buy gifts for the residents.
【2】According to the writer, what is the most important thing that volunteers can do for the elderly?
A. Playing with them. B. Benefiting from them.
C. Helping them. D. Being there with them.
【3】 What does the writer want to tell us by writing this passage ?
A. We don’t have anything in common with the elderly.
B. Age is just a number.
C. It is important to help the elderly.
D. Young adults and the elderly can benefit from each other.
24、Almost a decade ago, we wrote, “Without applied research on how to best communicate science online, we risk creating a future where the dynamics of online communication systems have a stronger impact on public views about science than the specific research that we as scientists are trying to communicate.” Since then, the footprint of subscription-based news content has slowly decreased. Meanwhile, various information, either true or false, increasingly dominates social media. Partly as a result, extreme public views on issues such as COVID-19 vaccines or climate change emerge and grow separate.
Scientists have been slow to adapt to a shift in power in the science information ecosystem—changes that are not likely to reverse (反转). Many parts of the scientific community—especially in science, technology, and mathematics fields—respond to this challenge as usual, which has been discouraging to those who conduct research on science communication. Many scientists-turned-communicators continue to see online communication environments mostly as tools for resolving information disconnection between experts and audiences. As a result, they blog, tweet, and post videos to promote public understanding and excitement about science.
Unfortunately, social science research suggests that rapidly evolving online information ecologies are less likely to be responsive to scientists who upload content—however attractive it may seem—to TikTok or YouTube. In highly contested national and global information environments, the scientific community is just one of many voices competing for attention and public buy-in about a range of issues. This competition for public attention has produced some urgent problems that the scientific community must face as online information environments rapidly replace traditional, mainstream media.
At present, there is little that science can do to escape this dilemma (窘境). The same profit-driven tools that bring science-friendly and curious followers to scientists’ Twitter feeds and YouTube channels will increasingly disconnect scientists from the audiences that they need to connect with most urgently. Moving forward, dealing with this challenge will require partnerships among the scientific community, social media platforms, and relevant institutions.
【1】What is the function of applied research on how to communicate science online?
A.To diversify the ways of communicating science.
B.To help the public correctly understand science.
C.To promote the development of social media.
D.To control online communication systems.
【2】What do the underlined words “this challenge” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A.The collapse of the scientific community.
B.The difficulty of conducting scientific research.
C.The hardships of tackling extreme views on science.
D.The change in dominant ways of communicating science.
【3】What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A.The public care little about science online.
B.Scientists have to compete for public attention.
C.Scientists focus on uploading science content.
D.Online information replaces traditional media.
【4】What can we infer about profit-driven media from the last paragraph?
A.Their investment pays off.
B.Their users have confidence in them.
C.They give the public access to scientists.
D.They are barriers to science communication.
