24、bsite that introduces art courses.For the first time in his life, Pete Peeks was able to use both hands to hang Christmas lights outside his housethanks to the help of a high school robotics team. Peeks, 38, was born without the full use of his right hand, and though many may take hanging holiday li
25、ghts for granted, Peeks said it was beyond his wildest dreams.Peeks was a client of the Sequoyah High School Robotics Team in Canton, Georgia. The team has designed an 3D-printed prostheses (假肢) to send for free to people around the world who need them.Daniel McCrobie, the team leader, said that whi
26、le the clients have said they are benefiting from the products, they are also benefiting by learning about the challenges other people face and how technology can make a difference. “Many of the prosthetics people can get the conventional way are very expensive, and even if you are fortunate enough
27、to get coverage, children grow out of them like they grow out of shoes,” he said.The inexpensive production through 3D printing opens up access to more people who need prostheses, and also means that they can be more customized to the clients unique bodies and specific needs. Peeks said the team was
28、 able to make educated recommendations for his prosthesis when he met with them. “They went beyond expectations in terms of really assessing the situation and learning what my specific needs were,” he said. “They were able to make some measurements to make sure everything was fitted correctly.” And
29、within a couple of weeks, he said, he had a prototype (原型) ready to try on. “Their eagerness to want to help and use technology to really transform peoples lives has been a great example of humans helping humans,” Peeks said.That practice of giving is something McCrobie hopes will continue when he g

Therefore, its
33、important to develop reading skills during childhood. A team of researchers focused on the effect of whole-body learning in instruction, known as embodied learning.The research included 149 children, aged 5 to 6, who had just started school. They were divided into three groups: one that stood up and
34、 used their whole bodies to shape letter sounds; a seated group that shaped letter sounds with their hands and arms; and a control group that received traditional, seated instruction during which they wrote letters by hand. “Our research showed that children who used their whole bodies to shape the
35、sounds of letters became twice as proficient (熟练的) at letter sounds that are more difficult to learn as those who received traditional instruction,” says PhD student Linn Damsgaard of UCPHs Department of Nutrition, Exercise and Sports.With regard to difficult letter sounds, she adds, “There are many
36、 difficult letter sounds in Danish. These sounds are particularly important because once children become proficient at them, they will be better readers.”Associate professor Jacob Wienecke, who led the study, explains, “The primary goal is to learn more about which methods can be used to give beginn
37、er readers a good start. The idea is that if, through play and movement, we can learn where their strengths truly lie, well create a form of learning that combines reading with play, and thats truly positive.”Previously, the researchers showed that the children felt more motivated by teaching method
38、s which included physical movement. Jacob Wienecke hopes this will provide an opportunity to inspire teachers and school managers to prioritize movement across subjects.The study also investigated whether a direct effect of embodied learning could be found on childrens reading of individual words. T
39、his was not possible, which might be due to the fact that the children were at such an early stage of their literacy development that they could not yet use their knowledge of letter sounds to read words.46What were the participants required to do in the study?ATo pick out difficult letter sounds in
40、 Danish.BTo learn new letters through repeated writing.CTo learn letter sounds using different approaches.DTo memorize some letter sounds as soon as possible.47How can embodied learning get children actively involved?ABy combining learning with games.BBy offering them chances to cooperate.CBy inspir
41、ing them to overcome difficulties.DBy explaining instructions to them patiently.48What does Jacob expect of the research finding?APromoting harmonious teacher-student relationships.BUrging schools to pay attention to physical exercise.CEnabling researchers to carry out further studies.DEncouraging e
42、ducators to apply it to teaching.49What does the last paragraph intend to tell us?AChildren prefer learning step by step.BChildren are too little to use their knowledge smartlyCChildren lack enough practice to get fully improved.DChildrens learning still relies on adults instruction.50What could be
43、the best title for the text?AWhole-body learning a good start to childrens readingBEmbodied learning a booster for childrens reading speedCChildrens reading skills matter a lot in their literacy developmentDChildrens literacy development depends on the flexibility of their bodiesPeople are being lur
44、ed onto Facebook with the promise of a fun, free service, and dont realize that theyre paying for it by giving up loads of personal information. Facebook then attempts to make money by selling their data to advertisers that want to send targeted messages. Most Facebook users dont realize this is hap
45、pening. Even if they know what the company is up to, they still have no idea what theyre paying for Facebook, because people dont really know what their personal details are worth.The biggest problem, however, is that the company keeps changing the rules. Early on, you could keep everything private.
46、 That was the great thing about Facebook you could create your own little private network. Last year, the company changed its privacy rules so that many things your city, your photo, your friends names were set, by default, to be shared with everyone on the Internet.According to Facebooks vice president Elliot Schrage, the company is simply making changes to improve its service, and if people dont share information
