Question

About 4.6 million children go to primary school in Malawi, but only 8 percent of students finish secondary (中學(xué)的) school. More girls drop out than boys because of the dangerous road conditions.

Pop star Rihanna and Ofo, one of China’s bike-sharing companies, set up a project to help girls in Malawi not only finish their education, but also get to class on time and safely.

The project, called 1 KM Action, will go for five years. Thanks to Ofo, now Malawian girls have a way to get to school. The Clara Lionel Foundation(CLF), set up in 2012 by Rihanna in honor of (為向……表示敬意) her grandparents, provides(提供) scholarships for these young minds. Ofo will provide free bikes to those who win the scholarship.

Lots of Ofo bikes have been put into use and have got positive feedback(反饋) from students and teachers. “Thanks to Ofo, now I could get to school on time. I love it. I hope there will be more Ofo bikes in Malawi,” said one of the girl students.

By donating (捐贈(zèng)) bikes and providing scholarships, Rihanna and Ofo hope the girls can continue (繼續(xù)) their education. Rihanna said, “I’m so happy to work together with Ofo because it will help the young girls of Malawi get to school safely, cutting down those very long walks they make to and from school all alone.”

Ofo founder and CEO Dai Wei, who used to be a volunteer teacher in one of China’s poorest villages, said he was ready to help every student get a good education.
