    When you donate to a charity, do you ever wonder where your money is actually going, and who it' s helping? Do you worry that the organization isn’t accurately reflecting your values, or isn't totally transparent?

A new app, called Sparrow, promises to take the guesswork out of giving and ensure donors make a meaningful influence. They' re doing this by allowing donors to choose a specific “rule” and tie it to their giving. For example, you can set it up so that every time you fill up your gas tank, a small part of the sale goes to an environmental nonprofit of your choice. You can set a cap on your donation and choose how long you want the app to track it. And, the app doesn't take a cut of your donation, meaning that every dollar you give is passed through to the charities you want to support.

Dan Ariely, one of the founders, is a world' s leading expert in decision-making and analyzing. He's developed apps and invented card games. He writes for the Wall Street Journal and has made many TED talks. CEOs of Amazon, American Express, McDonald's have Ariely on speed dial, hoping to pick his brain about human behavior and what motivates consumers.

To use Sparrow, users first set up “giving rules” - choosing things you do or events happening in the world and pairing them with an automatic donation to one of the company' s chosen collections of evidence-based charities. Then, as you go about your life, some of your activities will cause the rules to function and the donations are automatically transferred to the nonprofits from your bank account.

New York Times bestselling author A. J. Jacobs said, “I' m a huge fan and I hope it takes off and floods evidence-based charities with funds.”

And Ariely said, “By taking evidence-based approaches to building the evidence-based movement, I believe we can do even more good.

1.What advantage does the app have?

A.It is transparent and easy to use. B.It makes your giving more personal.

C.It helps track whatever interests you. D.It saves money as you fill your gas tank.

2.Which of the following can best describe Dan Ariely?

A.Optimistic. B.Careful. C.Intelligent. D.Modest.

3.What should people do to use the app?

A.Have a bank account. B.Apply for a job in a company.

C.Find out enough evidence. D.Get in touch with charities.

4.What is the text mainly about?

A.The procedure of donation. B.People’s attitude to giving.

C.Ways to donate through apps. D.Dan Ariely's new invention.

    Colorado' s grays peak(山顶)rises 14,278 feet above sea level, high enough that trees can't grow toward the top, though there are plenty of bushes and rocks. It was in this unforgiving area that Bev Wedelstedt was unlucky enough to have her left knee broken.

It was August 2018, and Wedelstedt, 56, was on her way back down the path with three friends. A storm was coming, and they were anxious to get off the mountain. When they approached a rocky drop of a couple of feet, Wedelstedt decided to jump over it. She landed on her left leg. Then she heard the snap (咔嚓声).

Every step after that was great pain. Before long, she had to stop. As one friend ran down to get help, a number of other hikers, all strangers, attempted to help Wedelstedt down the narrow path by walking on either side of her to support her weight, but that proved slow and dangerous.

Finally, one hiker, Matt, asked her, “How do you feel about a fireman's carry?” Before she knew it, he had lifted her over his shoulder. “Now, I' m not tiny,” says Wedelstedt, a former college basketball star. Matt clearly couldn't carry her all the way down by himself. So six hikers and one of her friends took turns carrying her while she tried to make light of a difficult situation. Three hours and two rock –strewn (遍布) miles later, this human conveyor belt finally met the doctors, who took Wedelstedt to the hospital.

She has mostly recovered from her hike, but Wedelstedt knows she'll I never shake one thing from that day: the memory of the band of strangers who came to her rescue. “I'm still in awe.” says Wedelstedt.

1.What happened to Wedelstedt while climbing down the mountain?

A.She was caught in a heavy storm. B.She injured her left knee.

C.She was blocked by rocks and bushes. D.She got lost in the mountain.

2.How did Matt help Wedelstedt?

A.By taking her directly to the hospital. B.By calling in firemen.

C.By carrying her down the mountain. D.By giving her first aid.

3.What is Wedelstedt ’s attitude towards the band of strangers?

A.Respectful. B.Ambiguous. C.Sympathetic. D.Tolerant.

4.What is the best title for the text?

A.Narrow Paths B.Lifelong friendship

C.Dangerous Hikes D.Peak Performance

    A new report shows that most American fourth and eighth graders did not do well in math and reading tests. The latest so-called “Nation' s Report Card” was published last week.

There were some exceptions. Students in Washington, D. C. made important gains in both reading and math this year, according to the National Assessment of Education Progress. Students in the state of Mississippi also made major improvements compared to earlier reports.

Nationally, however, America' s eighth graders are falling behind in math and reading. And, math scores among fourth graders also decreased. Only a little more than one-third of eighth graders are proficient in reading and math. About a third of fourth graders are proficient readers. Over 40 percent are considered proficient in math.

U. S. Education Secretary Betsy DeVos said the overall national results show a student achievement crisis(危机). She also said the problem cannot be fixed by giving more money to public schools. Instead, she called for expanded school choice. This includes her suggestions for greater dependence on privately run schools.

DeVos said last week that American children continue to fall behind students of the same grade in other countries. But with education freedom, American students can compete.

Scott Sargrad is with the Center for American Progress. He writes about education at the kindergarten through 12th grade levels, or K-12. He thinks DeVos is wrong and that “money matters in education.” The falling scores are because of lower spending on education following the Great Recession(经济衰退) of 2008.

1.What does the latest Nation's Report Card tell us about American students?

A.None of the American students do well in math.

B.The majority of eighth graders are poor at reading.

C.Fourth graders in Mississippi fall behind those in other states.

D.Students from Washington, D. C. made no improvements at all.

2.What does the underlined word “proficient” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?

A.Poor. B.Skilled. C.Slow. D.Puzzled.

3.Why does Betsy DeVos think the crisis arises?

A.Because of schools’ poor management. B.Because of a lack of money in education.

C.Because of limited educational freedom. D.Because of students ’dependence on schools.

4.What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A.K-12 is an educational institute.

B.Scott Sargrad is in favor of DeVos’ideas.

C.Spending more money on education is the solution.

D.Many educational problems led to the Great Recession.
