23、Joseph Beer noticed dozens of dirty street signs while out on his daily walks with his mom Lisa.
The 15-year-old, who has autism, soon decided he wanted to clean up the streets. With the help of Dad, he fixed a trailer to the back of his bike, and started riding around the streets near his house. The youth has cleaned street signs that have been left almost unreadable.
Joseph's efforts have not gone unnoticed by the people of Chatteris and surrounding towns—particularly a driving instructor who got in touch to thank him for uncovering hidden road signs. One kind neighbor, who Joseph's family did not even know, was so impressed by his clean-up of the town, that she set up a Go Fund Me page to reward him. The fundraising campaign, which has now ended, raised almost £1,000 in donations.
Joseph's mom Lisa says that her son has been working really hard almost every day. “I'm absolutely blown away with everything he's done. He comes back absolutely dirty, and still carrying the bucket of water, which by the end of the day has turned black from all the cleaning he's done. Then he'll take a bath and get ready to do it all again the next day.”
He started sharing photos on his Facebook, too, and reports, “I've found it really satisfying to look at the ‘before’ and ‘after’ pictures, and see the obvious improvements I've made to my hometown.”
His mother says he’s got an “incredible heart”, and now he wants to share the money that was raised for him. Joseph is donating to the local food bank, “for families who are struggling to feed themselves at the moment”.

24、There are many people who say Thomas Edison invented the twentieth century. Although there are those who may disagree, yet Edison was one of the greatest inventors in America.
Born in 1847 in Ohio, Thomas Edison attended school for only three months. After his teacher said that he could not learn, Edison’s mother decided to teach him at home. There he was allowed to study the subjects that most interested him. By age ten, Edison had built a science laboratory of his own.
Edison got his first job at age twelve on the railway selling candy and newspapers. There he once saved a boy whose father was the boss of the railway station. In return the boss helped him a lot.
In his late twenties, Edison built an “invention factory” where he and his business partners could devote all their time to inventing. After improving upon the telephone, Edison created the phonograph(留声机). Although Edison did not actually invent the light bulb, he did create an electric lighting system which led to its widespread use.
Edison set up the first central electric power station in 1882, so New York became the first city in the world to have electric lights. This was the beginning of the modern world in which electricity became a way of life.
The following year, one of Edison’s engineers discovered electrons(电子), which at last led to electronics. Without electronics, we might not have radio, TV, computers, or space travel. The rest of Edison’s life was spent making and improving inventions.
Thomas Edison died at the age of eighty-four in 1931. Three days later, much of America dimmed(使暗淡) its lights in honor of the inventor—a man who had more impact (影响)on the development of present-day civilization than anyone else in history.
【1】 The passage tells us that ________.
A. Edison didn’t like to study at school
B. Edison invented the light bulb in his late twenties
C. even without electronics, we might have radio, TV, computers, or space travel
D. New York was the first city in the world to have electric lights
【2】From the passage, we can infer that _________.
A. Edison’s teacher thought Edison was not worth teaching
B. Edison’s mother stopped Edison studying at school
C. Edison didn’t invent many things in all his life
D. Edison didn’t spend his life working on these inventions when he was old
【3】Why did many Americans dim their lights when Edison died? ________.
A. Americans wanted to save more energy.
B. Americans were used to dimming their lights.
C. Americans dimmed their lights in memory of the great inventor.
D. Americans were made to dim their lights.
