Living in a new era of high technology, more people choose to ask for help by using crowd funding (众筹) 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. |
1.Who are more likely to get help from crowd funding?
A.People who are in danger. B.Patients who need money badly.
C.People who want to make more money. D.People who want to be rich.
2.Who helped Jackson when he wanted to start a company?

More than 50 music students of New Milford High School in New Jersey, US, got a letter from their headmaster. The letter said that the music department of the school was in big trouble. The students had to pass a test, or the department(系) would be shut down.
On a Saturday, two officials greeted the nervous students. They asked the students to play a piece by Richard Strauss. But they had to sing the words to the music – German words!
Other tasks were also difficult. One student had to sing Mary had a Little Lamb, a children’s song, in an operatic (歌剧的) voice.
After three hours of testing, students waited for the results. They met some students from the New Jersey Youth Orchestra (管弦乐团). The judges(裁判员) gave them only a passing grade.
The worried New Milford students started to realize they had no chance. “I thought it was over,” said Bryan Olsen-Santana, a junior. “The person next to me was crying. I felt bad for her. I felt bad for myself, too, because music is everything to me.”
But then the headmaster came and told them something very dramatic (戏剧性的): “Someone’s played a joke on you!”
What was going on?
The test was part of a reality TV show (电视真人秀) called “Schooled”. The students’ parents, the school and a TV network had made it together.
Everything was fake. The two “officials” were really comedians (喜剧演员). The “students from New Jersey Youth Orchestra” were from another school. There were hidden cameras. The students’ parents were hiding as they watched.
As a reward for putting up with the joke, the students got gifts: MP3 players, digital cameras and school supplies. They were all from the show’s sponsor (赞助商).
