2014·山东卷

The kids in this village wear dirty, ragged clothes. They sleep beside cows and sheep in huts made

of sticks and mud. They have no school. Yet they all can chant the English alphabet, and some can make

words.

The key to their success: 20 tablet computers(平板电脑) dropped off in their Ethiopian village in

February by a U. S. group called One Laptop Per Child.

The goal is to find out whether kids using today's new technology can teach themselves to read in

places where no schools or teachers exist. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology researchers

analyzing the project data say they're already amazed. “What I think has already happened is that

the kids have already learned more than they would have in one year of kindergarten，” said Matt Keller,

who runs the Ethiopia program.

The fastest learner—and the first to turn on one of the tablets—is 8­year­old Kelbesa Negusse. The

device's camera was disabled to save memory, yet within weeks Kelbesa had figured out its workings and

made the camera work. He called himself a lion, a marker of accomplishment in Ethiopia.

With his tablet, Kelbesa rearranged the letters HSROE into one of the many English animal names he

knows. Then he spelled words on his own. “Seven months ago he didn't know any English. That's

unbelievable，” said Keller.

The project aims to get kids to a stage called “deep reading”， where they can read to learn. It

won't be in Amharic, Ethiopia's first language, but in English, which is widely seen as the ticket to higher

paying jobs.

本文主要介绍了一个被称作One Laptop Per Child的项目计划，它旨在帮助那些没有学校、没有教师的地方的孩子学会阅读。

B. More children are needed for the research.

C. He is confident about the future of the project.

Nowadays, mobile phones are becoming very important in our daily life, but you may want to throw

your mobile phone away after reading this. Because tests have shown every mobile phone averagely

carries 18 times more potentially harmful bacteria than a toilet handle. One of the phones in the test had

such high levels of bacteria that it could have given its owner a serious stomach upset.

While the bacteria are not immediately harmful, high levels of bacteria indicate poor personal

hygiene (卫生) and act as a breeding (交配繁殖) ground for other bugs. The findings from a sample
