He made a phone app called Farm Assistant on his own. With the help of the app, farmers in Botswana, a country in Southern Africa, can make their work much easier. Seven years ago, Wu and his family moved to Botswana. During their time there, Wu found some problems in local supermarkets. First, there were not many kinds of fruit and vegetables for sale and they were not good. Second, some vegetables weren’t ripe (熟的) but still very expensive. Wu wanted to do something to work out these problems. After hard work, he finally made a useful app. The app teaches farmers in Botswana to grow eight different vegetables. Farmers can click on a vegetable’s picture to learn about its planting information—watering needs, ripening time, seed (种子) price, selling price and so on. After planting the seeds, farmers can also know what to do through the app. It can help the farmers a lot. This app is very helpful to the farmers in Botswana. Now, Wu is working to make it better.

I’m a health expert. My team and I did a survey about students’ free time activities yesterday. One of our questions was about exercise. And of course it was the most important one. From the survey, we knew only 25% of the girls often have activities outside. Many girls do little exercise. They don’t like P. E. classes and even don’t play sports. These girls may face a lot of problems. They may get fatter and weaker. And they may get sick easily. Wang Jing, a 16-year-old, said, “I don’t like doing exercise. I like watching TV on the sofa. I spend at least three hours watching TV a day. My sleeping time is no more than seven hours a day. I often feel tired.” Some girls said, “We don’t have enough time to do exercise. We must help our parents with housework because they are very tired. After a day’s work, we do some washing, clean the house and finish the homework. We don’t have time for doing anything else.” Everyone may have these excuses for not doing exercises. As students, you had better exercise every day. You can run in the park after school, which can help you keep healthy. And you can also do other sports, such as swimming and playing football. 46．What does Dr. Smith do? 47．What percentage (百分比) of the girls often have activities outside according to the survey? 48．How may the girls get if they do little exercise? 49．How long does Wang Jing spend in watching TV a day? 50．Where can students run after school according to Dr. Smith?
