Welcome to the hands-down Big 5 game reserve in South Africa. Volunteering in our camp in the African bush
is definitely a rewarding and convenient way to help you gain a sense of devotion and satisfaction with no extra
material rewards.
Why to join
It's a once-in-a-lifetime experience, where you get to give back to the natural environment and the local
community. It not only is an extremely satisfying feeling when you know that you've helped to protect this
incredible part of the world for generations to come, but enables you to gain invaluable skills and knowledge in
conservation.
Requirements
Priority will be given to those candidates with great patience and devotion. Rich experience for wildlife
conservation as well as a certificate in wildlife protection is not necessarily important. Refusal goes to animal
abusers.
What to expect
Working alongside trained forest protectors, conservation staff and other volunteers from Monday to Friday (8:
30 a. m. -4: 30 p. m. ) , you're expected to help with fence guards to keep animals safe from poachers (偷猎者) ,
feed animals, and even help catch animals for medical treatment. During term-time, you may also work with the
local community, delivering meals with nutrition to local children.
Entertainment
After work, you'll have plenty of time to relax on the reserve. Be bathed in the sun by the reserve's pool, play a
few rounds of tennis or relax in the common room with your new friends. The program contains various overnight
short-distance journeys in the surrounding areas such as Port Elizabeth, Jeffreys Bay and Grahamstown, where you
can go hiking, windsurfing, whale-watching, horse-riding and much more.

Over 40 students with low vision study at a school in Gandhinagar, Gujarat. It was designed by Anand
Sonecha, founder of an architecture company. Featuring a bright yellow entrance door, which stands out against the
white walls, the school is decorated with a variety of sweet-smelling plants everywhere. Inside the classrooms, the
walls feel smooth in contrast to the rough outside of the building. These all help students familiarize themselves
with the area straightforwardly, without any trouble.
The school provides an open space serving as a platform for the visually-challenged students to play, perform,
or celebrate festivals and the students are easy to orient themselves according to the sound, smell, sight and touch.
“The idea behind the design was to make the school more accessible to the students,” Sonecha says, “They come
from remote villages and towns in Gujarat, and I am eager to help them.”
During the construction, Sonecha used contrasting colors so that students could easily distinguish between the
elements. Blue was used for all classroom doors, yellow for the entrance gate, black for switch buttons, and yellow
and green for the furniture. All these colors contrasted with the white walls of the school, helping the students
locate different elements. Different areas are of different height and width, which makes the sounds and noises
change according to the echo (回音) produced in these spaces. Furthermore, he cooperated with fellow landscape
architect Lokendra Balasaria to plant more than 1, 000 plants of 37 species. These sweet plants have been grown
not only to lead the children to move in the school through smell but also to attract butterflies and birds, and
provide shade.
“The structure of the building is designed similarly to any other school building, only with a few clever
elements. My intention was to avoid making it look distinct from other schools,” Sonecha explains, “I hope that
there are no different schools for such students. Instead, all these elements should be added to public spaces for
them. And my follow-up efforts may be there.”
4. Why did Sonecha design the school in Gandhinagar?
A. To explore architecture styles. B. To raise funds for his company.
C. To offer convenience to the students. D. To improve students' learning ability.
5. What does the underlined word “orient” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Relax. B. Waken. C. Cheer. D. Direct.
6. How does the school help students perform daily routine?
A. By expanding activity areas. B. By stimulating multiple senses.
C. By offering behavioral guidelines. D. By strengthening safety measures.
7. What will Sonecha probably do in the future?
A. Promote accessibility in the public regions. B. Modernize architecture with smart devices.
C. Build special schools for disabled students. D. Decorate schools with traditional elements.
C
Language gives us the power to describe countless actions, properties and relations that compose our
experiences, real or imagined. As for how languages were created, scientists found iconicity might play a key role.
People can't bridge language gap and understand each other without iconicity. When playing a game of charades
(猜字谜) , we act out our meaning, using our hands and bodies to describe the sizes and shapes of objects. The key
to this process of forming new symbols is the use of iconicity. Not limited to gesturing, iconicity appears in our
visual communication too. Traffic signs, food packaging, maps. . . wherever there are people communicating, you
will find iconicity.
According to our research, iconicity might also exist in our voices. We organized a contest in which we invited
contestants to record a set of sounds to express different meanings. The winner of the contest was determined by
how well listeners could guess the intended meanings of the sounds based on a set of written options. Critically, the
sounds that contestants submitted couldn't include actual words or onomatopoeias (拟声词) .
Listeners were remarkably good at interpreting the meanings of the sounds. Yet, all of the contestants and
listeners were speakers of English. Thus, it was possible that listeners' success relied on some cultural knowledge
that they shared with the speakers. Did the listeners also understand the speakers from completely different cultural
backgrounds?
Later, an Internet survey translated into 25 different languages was carried out. Participants listened to each
sound from the English speakers and guessed the meaning by choosing from six written words. Guessing accuracy
for the different groups ranged from 74 percent for English speakers to 34 percent for Portuguese speakers. It is far
from perfect, but well above the chance rate of eight percent expected by us.
Taken together, these studies show that our capacity for iconic communication has played a critical role.
Without this special talent, language would likely never have gotten off the ground.
8. Which of the following can explain “iconicity” ?
A. A skill in foreign language learning. B. The process of acting out our meanings.
C. The connection between form and meaning. D. A barrier between different language speakers.
9. What can we know about the contest?
A. It required sounds containing meanings. B. Its winners were creative in recordings.
C. It aimed to prove iconicity in words. D. Its entries were familiar to listeners.
10. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?
A. English pronunciations differ. B. The research has a limitation.
C. The cultural gap is narrowing. D. Listening skills vary in cultures.
11. What is the significance of the research?
A. Clarifying the influence of sounds. B. Proving the necessity of exchanges.
C. Uncovering the origin of languages. D. Identifying the function of gestures.
