Unit 3 The world of science
一、阅读理解(本大题共4小题,共8.0分)
A
One stormy day, twelve-year-old Arjun Kumar was late getting home from school. It had been raining heavily near his school in Chennai, India, This delayed (使迟到) his school bus, and when he finally arrived, Arjun's parents were worried.
His parents' concern gave Arjun an idea—he'd create an app, which could tell parents the location of their children's school bus. While researching different ways to write apps, Arjun located an online programming tool on the website of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. MIT was making the tool, called App Inventor, available to anyone who wanted to use it. As the motto on MIT App Inventor's website states, "With MIT App Inventor, anyone can build apps with global impact".
Arjun got to work doing just that. Using App Inventor, he created an app called "Ez School Bus Locator". If a school introduced this app into its bus system, parents could log on to see the locations and estimate (估算) the arrival time of their children's school bus. Like other mapping apps, Ez School Bus Locator relied on GPS. GPS helps users determine their location, based on signals from a set of satellites (卫星).
The app could also confirm whether individual children were on the bus. Ez School Bus Locator used a specific bar code to identify each student. Students checked in when they got on the bus by using bar codes on their phones. As the bus driver drove, the app sent messages to parents.
Did Ez School Bus Locator sound like a good idea MIT thought so. In 2012, MIT held a contest to honor the best apps that had been created using App Inventor. Arjun's app won the first place in the K-8 division.
Arjun didn't stop there. He continued developing new apps and he even started his own software development company. When asked for pointers for other young inventors, Arjun advised, "Look for problems around you, and get inspired from them. You'll see a lot of opportunities to use your skills to make this world a better place to live!"
