21、For the majority of people, watching movies is their favorite pastime. Even for the deaf, subtitles make it possible for them to enjoy movies. But what about deaf children who can’t read yet, or whose reading isn’t fast enough to keep up with subtitles?
Mariella Satow, 17, a senior student, ran into these questions and spent over a year developing SignUp to solve them. SignUp, launched in August, is a free-of-charge Google Chrome Extension that provides American Sign Language (ASL) captioning over videos on streaming service Disney Plus. It puts a small box with a sign language interpreter in the corner of the screen while the movie plays.
Satow has been stuck in New York, US, since March 2020 because of COVID-19 travel restrictions. During the COVID-19 lockdown, Satow decided to learn a new language, specifically ASL. “Normally, I learn languages by watching television shows with captions, but I found nothing similar for ASL,” Satow said in her profile on SignUp’s website.
Realizing that some deaf children would come across the problem, Satow took action. Using her $ 3, 000, she made from part-time job during the pandemic, Satow employed an India-based company Softpulse Infotech to help her devise a coding system that could overlay ASL interpretation on streaming platforms. As of Nov 12, the extension has provided on-screen ASL interpretation for nine movies such as Moana. Satow has received positive reactions from parents and teachers.
“We watched Moana. My 6-year-old daughter’s smile face was priceless. She loved it. It was the first time she’s had full access to a movie. Thank you!” a user commented below on SigmUp’s Twitter account. Satow also revealed that some teachers would use the extension in their classrooms and arrange movie nights for their students.
“My hope is we’ll have a lot more movies interpreted,” she said. “I’m hoping to expand to a more adult audience and to other countries to make it as big as possible.” “We are very proud of her drive, vision and most importantly her commitment to service,” said Gareth, head of Rugby School.

22、 Last year, Zhang's store saw revenue of about 5 million yuan ($772,000) and made a profit of 500,000 yuan. Mhangami was also highly impressed by the laughter he heard among farmers during his trip, which he said helped inspire him.
In his notebook he wrote that such laughter was not only shared by one particular village, but "by the hundreds of millions of people that have been pulled out of poverty".
On the five-day trip, which was organized by Xinhua News Agency, Mhangami was joined by Michael Chick, a Malaysian media worker, and by South African teacher Shaun Nish and his daughter Rebecca.
The foreigners traveled to the once-poor county, Jinzhai, to experience rural life and to witness the nation's poverty alleviation （减轻）efforts. At the end of last year, some 100 million poor rural residents living below the poverty line nationwide had shaken off poverty. All 832 poor counties, including Jinzhai county, had been lifted out of poverty.
During their visit, the foreigners were surprised by the level of internet , development and the booming digital economy in the rural area.
Shaun Nish said he had been amazed by the amount of local infrastructure （基础设施），adding that he had not been expecting to see such a wide variety. He also thought that roads in the area would be less wide. He and his daughter, who live in Hefei, capital of Anhui, were also delighted with the easy access to wireless internet in the villages.
Chick, who has traveled to many Southeast Asian countries for TV production work and is now turning his attention to China, said, "It is not just Wi-Fi — it's internet connectivity. That's pretty much how this village we visited is able to market its products outside.”
“When you talk about infrastructure, it is always roads, water and healthcare, but people always forget to mention the internet. The internet infrastructure forms the basis for a whole lot of things. It changes your perspective. It opens up your markets.”
【1】What is the attitude of farmers, like Zhang, to the nation's poverty alleviation efforts?
A.Opposed. B.Unconcerned. C.Supportive. D.Objective.

23、 When you choose a higher education course, here are some tips for you to follow.
Choosing your course
There are a range of subjects and courses available. Many are work-related; others are academic. You’ll need to look beyond the course title because courses with almost the same name may differ enormously. For example, if you’re interested in construction but wish to use your creative skills, you may be better suited to a building design management course than a building project management course.
Style of learning
Think about the style of learning that best suits you. It’s important to study a subject that you particularly enjoy, but if you want to follow a career in a different area, you may consider taking the subjects you want to learn and joining them into one degree. Many degree courses are made up of different subject modules which deal with particular areas of interest.
Choosing where to study
Where you study can be almost as important as what you study. One thing to consider is whether you want to live at home or move away. For some people, living at home offers the best of both worlds, but it may make sense to move if you want to study a particular course at a specific university or college. Many students value the experience of living on campus or in a different part of the country as an important part of university life.
Finding out more about courses
Once you’ve got a list of courses that appeal to you, it’s worth looking at some other sources of information about them, like independent reports. These provide information on the numbers of students who finished the course, student satisfaction and more.
Open days
Open days usually take place in spring or autumn. Although you may have an idea about what a course is like, there’s no substitute（替代）for attending a class yourself. If you can’t come on the open days, you can sign up for a guided tour instead.
【1】You need to look beyond the course title because courses with similar names may be ______.
A.creativity-focused B.work-related
C.far different D.quite similar
【2】What are you advised to do if your interest disagrees with your future career?
A.Add preferred subjects to your degree courses.
B.Choose the subjects based on your interest.
C.Earn different degrees.
D.Give up your interest.
【3】What do we learn about from Para. 4?
A.Disadvantages of studying on campus.
B.Reasons for choosing where to study.
C.Importance of attending a nearby college.
D.Problems of going to a faraway university.
【4】Why is it recommended to check independent reports?
A.To increase applicants’ interest.
B.To better understand a course.
C.To figure out how to complete a course.
D.To find out how different the courses are.
【5】On the open days, would-be college students can ______.
A.sign up for a particular course
