24、As kids, we learn how to write, maybe play a musical instrument and draw. So why don’t we learn to code(编码) computer programs too? What coding has in common with writing, playing music and creating art is that it lets you bring your ideas to life. Coding is all about creativity and that’s why I love it.

Creating with code

CoderDojo helps young people around the world to learn computer programming for free. When I went to my first CoderDojo class in Dublin City University in Ireland, at age nine, I didn’t know anything about coding or even what it was. But I remember making my very first web page that first day, and being surprised that I could create such a thing. It was a great feeling that I think every young person should experience!

By going to CoderDojo every week, I learned how to make websites, apps and games. One of my apps is called Auto-Journalist. It can help journalists(记者) and interviewees do interviews even if they are both really busy or live in different time zones. It is still in development, and I have showed it at an event called Coolest Projects Awards, where young people get to show the public what they have created with code. It’s so much fun to share one’s creations, and to see what everyone else has made too.

Learning environment

For the past three years I have also been helping to teach other young people at CoderDojo DCU. In recent years I have also noticed many more girls attending CoderDojo DCU to try out coding. This has a lot to do with the CoderDojo girls’ classes—girls and young women take part in it with their friends, and it doesn’t feel like coding is a “boy thing”. It is really wonderful to see this, because we need more girls and women in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths). It’s a good way to learn more about technology.

Start early

One of the main things I have learned in the last few years is that coding is not only for adults, coding is for young people, too. And when you are a child it is a great time to start coding, because your imagination is the limit for what you can create!

Want to learn more? Find out if there is a CoderDojo near you at www.coderdojo.com or set one up yourself! Also check out Code.org which has lots of fun drag-and-drop coding games.

【1】In the writer’s first coding class, she   .

A. made apps and games   B. created a web page

C. wrote for newspapers   D. did some interviews

【2】Why do more girls begin to learn coding?

A. There are coding classes for girls.

B. Girls want to learn a “boy thing”.

C. There are more girls in STEM.

D. Girls can meet cool boys there.

【3】What does the writer think of coding?

A. It is better than playing music.

B. It limits children’s imagination.

C. It stops people from learning fast.

D. It helps children with their creativity.

【4】What is probably the best title for this passage?

A. Start Coding as Early as Possible

B. Come for Fun in CoderDojo Class

C. Kids Should Have Chances to Learn to Code

D. STEM Is Calling for More Girls and Women

26、   The clock struck eleven at night. The whole house was quiet. Everyone was in bed except me. Under the strong light, I looked sadly before a huge pile (堆) of troublesome things they call “books”.

I was going to have my examination the next day. “When can I go to bed?” I asked myself. I didn’t answer, in fact I dared not.

The clock struck 12. “Oh, dear!” I cried, “ten more books to read before I can go to bed!” We pupils are the most poor person in the world. Dad does not agree with me on this. He did not have to study so hard when he was a boy.

The clock struck one. I was quite hopeless now. I forgot all I had learned. I was too tired to go on. I did the only thing I could. I prayed, “Oh, God, please help me pass the exam tomorrow. I do promise to work hard afterwards, Amen.” My eyes were heavy, so heavy that I could hardly open them. A few minutes later, with my head on the desk, I fell asleep.

28、   Not only could the cultures, histories or customs in different countries be different, but the s【1】habits are different. Let’s see the shopping in America here.

If you arrive in America only for a short time, I believe you need to buy some clothes soon. There is a rule of dressing in the States: Change your clothes every day. F【2】 example, in an American college, neither teachers n【3】 students are often seen in the same clothes for two days on end. So you may find i【4】 necessary to buy more clothes than you have here——in China.

W【5】 you are shopping in the States, you will find that prices change a lot from store to store, and they change a lot from time to time.

After you stay in America for some time, you will also find t【6】 Americans are not so well-off. They often go shopping at “sales”.

They also buy some used, second-hand things, such as clothing, bed, sofa, or TV——in order to s【7】 money. But in America it is quite different: most of the second-hand things are rather good.

In fact, the price in the United States is always very l【8】 . Advertisements for “white sale” are often seen in January, as well as in May and June or July. Once or t【9】 every season there will be “ garage sales” in the community. There, you can get almost a【10】 , from a boat to a pair of shoes, at lower prices.

29、   My dear friends! Today it’s my turn to give my class report! Then you can learn more about me.

Do you eat meat? Well, if you do, then you might find my next words interesting. A study says that the world has a _______  need for meat. In 1960, each person ate about 21 kg, in 2007, the number rose to 40 kg! At the same time, there have been _________in the list of favorite meats. In the 1960s, beef was high on the menu. Of the meat that was eaten, 40% was beef. In 2007, pork became the star. Poultry( 家 禽 ) also became popular, going up from 12% to 32%,_______people’s worries about their health these years. And which country_______the most meat for each person? The answer is Luxembourg! In 2007, each Luxembourger ate about 137 kg of meat! Now, enough with the numbers.

Next, I want to_______a story.

It’s never comfortable to take a bus during rush hour on a hot summer day. All my friends hate it. And I…, well, I_______ it, too.

Two months ago, I was on a bus that was packed with almost everyone in the city. I_______my friend Neal to see a show. And then he called and said he couldn’t come. While I was feeling sorry for myself, a girl called my name. I didn’t recognize(认出) her_______. Then I was surprised to find that she was Helen, my old neighbor. We were happy to see each other, so we decided to have dinner together. And that was the_______of many dinners after. You know what? Helen loves eating meat a lot!

With Helen, the bus ride________ something I love. The bus is still packed with people, but I enjoy the ride every day.
