Question

【題目】 Living in a new era of high technology, more people choose to ask for help by using crowd funding (眾籌) online. Some people think it’s convenient and people can get help in time when they are in trouble. There are some other people refusing to donate money in this way. They don’t think the money can be used properly. The following are what some people think about the new way of donating money.

Jackson	Thanks to the crowd funding, I have a chance to succeed in starting a company. About three years ago, I got help from almost eighty thousand strangers. With the money raised from them, my dream to have my own company came true. Next year, my workmates and I plan to donate some of my money to other people in need if the company goes well.
Maria	I often do volunteer work in my free time. I’ve been volunteering for nearly six years. But I am unfamiliar with how crowd funding works. I don’t think I have time and energy to check whether the online information about the people is true. So I never use crowd funding. I prefer to help people in my neighborhood.
Jean	Everyone in my family was upset and lost hope when they knew I had a serious illness. I was really thankful to the nurse who told us to try to raise money with help of crowd funding. At first, my parents thought it was unbelievable and impossible to get the money. When they realized they had no choice but to carry out the nurse’s advice, they tried and got the money for my operation. I will try my best to work harder and repay the helpers’ love to me.

文章介紹的是生活在一個高科技的新時代，更多的人選擇通過網(wǎng)上的眾籌來尋求幫助。這種捐款方式有些人認為是好的，而有些人認為不好，以及舉例三個人對此的看法。

【1】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中表格第三行Everyone in my family was upset and lost hope when they knew I had a serious illness. I was really thankful to the nurse who told us to try raise money with help of crowd funding. 我的家人知道我得了重病，都很難過，失去了希望。我真的很感謝護士告訴我們試著在群眾資助的幫助下籌集資金�？芍�，特別需要錢的病人更有可能獲得幫助，故選B。

【2】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中About three years ago, I got help from almost eighty thousand strangers. With the money raised from them, my dream to have my own company came true. 大約三年前，我得到了八萬陌生人的幫助。有了他們的錢，我的夢想實現(xiàn)了，我有自己的公司�？芍�，是很多陌生人幫助他，故選C。

【3】詞義猜測題。根據(jù)文中I often do volunteer work in my free time. I’ve been volunteering for nearly six years. 我經(jīng)常在空閑時間做義工。我做志愿者已經(jīng)快六年了。以及how crowd funding works. 眾籌如何運作。可知這里表達的是對眾籌不熟悉，故選A。

【4】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中Next year, my workmates and I plan to donate some of my money to other people in need if the company goes well. 明年，如果公司發(fā)展順利，我和我的同事計劃把我的一部分錢捐給其他需要幫助的人。可知A選項錯誤；根據(jù)文中I’ve been volunteering for nearly six years. 我做志愿者已經(jīng)快六年了�？芍�文中并沒有說是否在附近做志愿者，所以B選項錯誤；根據(jù)文中I was really thankful to the nurse who told us to try raise money with help of crowd funding. At first, my parents thought it was unbelievable and impossible to get the money. When they realized they had no choice but to carry out the nurse’s advice我真的很感謝護士告訴我們試著在群眾資助的幫助下籌集資金。一開始，我父母認為這是難以置信的，不可能得到錢。當他們意識到他們別無選擇只能執(zhí)行護士的建議時，可知C選項是正確的；根據(jù)文中Some people think it’s convenient and people can get help in time when they are in trouble. 有些人認為這很方便，人們遇到困難時可以及時得到幫助�？芍�是一些人，并不是所有人，所以D項錯誤，故選C。
