五、阅读理解。(每小题2.5分,共10分)
It's often believed that only grown-ups can make a difference. Is it true? Teen Vogue interviewed some teenagers across the world. Get ready to be inspired.
16-year-old Michael started using social media to cheer up teenagers of his age to follow their dreams on his baseball blogs. Michael also wrote about sports people and how they would face their challenges.
Lesein, 14 years old, first learnt about climate change when he was twelve years old. His home country of Kenya loses about 29,650 acres of forest each year. With a deep love of soccer, Lesein started Trees for Goals, planting a tree for every goal he scored in a match. Later, the school's soccer and basketball teams all followed him. In 2019, almost 1,000 trees in forests outside of Nairobi were planted. Now the government provides trees for them to plant.
Alexis Lewis, a 15-year-old inventor, designed a simple wheelchair made of bamboo to help poor people who need to transport children many miles to hospitals. Another invention of his is a special mask which can be thrown through a window of a smoke-filled building to people inside. Alexis said, "People are dying because they can't be saved in time. Another reason why I want to invent something is that I love physics and I use it to improve technologies." Alexis also told our reporter that he wanted children to know that .
These young people are certainly shining examples to show you're never too young to make a difference.

六、任务型阅读。（每小题2分，共10分）
Most of us have never thought about building an educational toy by ourselves. If we need a learning toy or something, we simply go to the nearest store and buy it. However, things are not as easy in third
world countries. With families even having no food to put on the table, buying toys, especially the educational ones, is the last thing on the parents' minds.
So how can one get these kids interested in science? This was a question that worried the Indian engineer Arvind Gupta so much that he decided to give up a good job and spend his life making toys from trash, things that people no longer want or need!
Mr Gupta began teaching in the 1970s. While still an engineering student at the Indian College of Technology, he volunteered to teach the children who could not afford to go to school. Upon graduation, he found a good job at India's Tata Motors and spent the next five years designing cars.
But he soon realized that this was not something he wanted to do for the rest of his life. So he took a year's training course and took part in the Hoshangabad Science Teaching Programme whose aim was to make science fun and exciting for poor children using available materials.
Mr Gupta found the whole project so satisfying that he decided to leave his high-paying job and focus his attention on designing educational toys that are not only cheap and easy to build, but also full of scientific principles(科学原理), so that children could get interested in this interesting subject.
When the internet started becoming a more widespread learning tool, Mr Gupta created a Toys from Trash website and also recorded over 250 YouTube videos.
Today over 50,000 children and teachers visit the website daily to download the videos for the toy creations based on cool science. Some young children have become so inspired that they have even won international science competitions with the help of his creations.
