The boys jumped out of the windows in the science lesson.In the science lesson the boys were frightened by what they saw --- the mixture was bubbling over everywhere, thinking that something terrible had happened, so they jumped out of the windows to escape from danger.2. Jo wondered how relevant chemistry was to the boys.Because most of the boys will go back to their village after studying in the school, and their knowledge of chemistry will prove useless, so Jo wondered how relevant chemistry was to the boys.3. Tombe’s mother cried “ieee ieee” when he say Jo.I think it’s a kind of greeting in their village. And I’m sure all the family members will be happy and excited to have visitors like Jenny and Jo. 4.

Of course, if there were glass, they could both have a big window, and at the same time, they can keep all the insects from entering. 5. The tin can was standing upside down on the grill.The tin can was standing upside down on the grill in order to get the leftover dry up quickly.6. Jo felt it was a privilege to have spent a day with Tombe’s family. First it was such a long distance from the school to Tombe’s home. Second, the family members and the villagers showed great hospitality to them, which impressed them very deeply. Third, they got the chance to know the villagers’ simple life. Therefore, they were determined to go on with volunteer work to help the boys get enough education.DiscussionNow we have two topics to discuss:
1. Why do you think Jo become a volunteer in PNG? Give as many possible reasons as you can.
2. Would you like to work as a volunteer in a poor area? Give reasons.A sample of the discussions:A: I think, first of all, Jo was a kind-hearted woman, who is willing to help others. Second, she knew enough about the poor conditions in PNG and thought that she could help teach in the schools. If I am given the chance, I will do whatever I can to help.
B: In my opinion, Jo must have worked as a teacher in Australia, and she applied to become a volunteer abroad, and then she was sent to PNG as a volunteer.
C: Maybe she thinks that education is the key to solving all the problems in PNG, so she, as a teacher, goes to PNG to help.
D: Perhaps she likes traveling abroad, helping the poor wherever she goes. E: I don’t agree with you. You know, she stayed there for two years. A traveler once did that. She was willing to help the poor children in PNG to be educated. She was doing her bit to change the poor’s state of living and education. Ifdo you bit 干分内的事 everyone in the rich countries should do like her, all the problems stemming from poverty could be solved easily.
F: I would like to say something about the second topic. I think I will be a volunteer in a poor area. Whenever I saw the poor living state of the poor in the western areas and mountainous areas, I was eager to do something for them. All are created equal. But they can’t get what we can enjoy. What a pity! If possible, I will try to help.What do you think are the positive and negative things about living in a village in Papua New Guinea. Give your reasons. The first one is done for you.discuss1.Boys value education.
2.Everyone would know each other.
3.The village does not have to rely on outside sources for food.
4.People can live without many possessions.1.Positives aspects:
Negative aspects:1.No running water or electricity.
2.The village might be cut off from the outside world and might not have roads to and from it.
