Answer the questions 根据对话回答下列问题。 Evans Wadongo was from a village of Africa. He had to do homework by the light of a kerosene lamp (煤油灯). Evans’ eyes hurt and this made studying difficult.

Besides, it can lead to fires. Lastly, kerosene is expensive. One day, he had an idea. He could use a small solar (太阳能的) light. Sunlight is free and solar power is good for the environment. Evans built his first solar lamp and it worked. He began to build more lamps and sent them to local families. An organization heard about this and provided money for him to build more solar lamps. Each lamp only cost＄20. However, this was a lot of money to many villagers, who only earned around ＄34 a week. So Evans made sure he kept the cost down. Evans used recycled materials. He also asked some volunteers to help build the lamps. Thousands of people had safe light. Julia, a mother of three, said, “Thanks to Evans, my children have light to read, and I have my own light to cook.” The solar lamps made a big difference. 54.
