4 . Stephen Davies was born without the lower part of his left arm. When he was at school, he had to wear a prosthetic limb (假肢). As he grew up, he found that it was gradually hard to wear his prosthetic arm as usual. And the places it could reach couldn’t meet his needs anymore.
It’s OK for adults to buy better and more expensive prosthetic arms as they can use the same one for years. Children, though, need to change their prosthetic arms every few months because they grow so quickly.
Stephen decided to do something. He had read that it was possible to print light, 3D prosthetics and he wondered if he could make them himself. He experimented (做实验) with simple but very colourful arms and legs. He discovered that he could make good prosthetic limbs quite cheaply.
Now he and his business partner (合伙人) produce “cool” limbs. They give prosthetic limbs away to children who need them (they raise money on the Internet to help with the cost of making the prosthetic limbs). One of the first kids to get a “cool” limb was nine-year-old Isabella Jennings. She had been waiting all her life for something like this. Stephen was really glad to help more children like himself.
1. What did Stephen find about his prosthetic limb as he grew up?A.It helped him a lot. | B.It became more comfortable. |
C.It could reach far away. | D.It was not fit for him anymore. |
A.What Stephen thought of prosthetic limbs. | B.How Stephen made good prosthetic limbs. |
C.Why Stephen created 3D prosthetic limbs. | D.When Stephen began to do experiment. |
A.To do business with his partner. | B.To get popular on the Internet. |
C.To make more money for himself. | D.To help more children like himself. |
A.Honest and quiet. | B.Kind and creative. |
C.Outgoing and serious. | D.Humorous and brave. |
5 . Li Jin was born in Guangxi but raised in Sanya, Hainan. In the past 9 years, Li has made great efforts to protect the waters of Sanya. He is now spreading the knowledge of environmental protection. He does this through the Internet.
Around 2014, he began doing volunteer work to clear rubbish from the beaches and officially registered as a volunteer in May, 2017. Li took the lead in a clean-up activity on the Sanya River. In April, 2021, he used his own money to set up a volunteer service center. The center has 1,170 registered members who take part in all kinds of activities.
So far, he has spent about 3, 800 hours on volunteer activities in over 550 events. More than 2,300 people have joined in the activities with his encouragement. They have drawn the attention of both adults and children to the importance of protecting oceans and beaches. His center has organized 51 beach-cleaning activities which have seen about 1,800 people join in since it was set up.
In 2021, because of Li’s growing influence in environmental protection circles, the city government invited him to make a number of short videos. In the videos, he used simple words to explain how to protect the environment. Several of the videos have been watched millions of times.
“Although many people speak highly of my work, what I have done is not for the compliment. I just want to make a difference to environmental protection. My volunteer work would be meaningless if I was paid. It is everyone’s duty to protect environment. The work itself is of great value, so I will continue doing the environmental protection work,” he said.

Jeremy always tried to be the best, no matter what he was doing. Jeremy’s biggest wish was to do better than his classmate Chris.
One day, Jeremy’s teacher told the class that the school was going to hold a race to raise money to buy new computers. She wanted the students to sign up for the race and ask their neighbors and friends to help by making a donation. Jeremy wasn’t the fastest runner, but all he could think about was winning. He signed up for the race at once. Chris signed up, too.
As Jeremy walked to school the next day, he saw Chris passing out flyers (传单) about the race to his neighbors and friends. Jeremy thought this was a waste of time.
That night, Jeremy’s father asked him why he didn’t tell his neighbors or friends about the race. Jeremy said he just wanted to win the race and beat Chris. What Jeremy said let his father down. His father shook his head and said, “You’re running for the wrong reason. You should run to help your school. It’s meaningless if you win the race without collecting any money.”
Jeremy didn’t take his father’s words seriously. On the day of the race, Jeremy ran as fast as he could. He passed Chris and won the race. Jeremy couldn’t be happier. But the next day at school, no one congratulated him for the race. The teacher said that they hadn’t raised enough money for the computers.
Jeremy finally realized that his father was right. He came in the first place, but because he didn’t help raise money, he wasn’t a real winner.
