Opening of the letter and introduction to what will be talked about in the passage.Part 1(Paragraph 1) : The school where Jo worked and Jo’s work at school.
Jo and Jenny visited Tombe’s home in the village.
Closing of the letter.Part 2(Paragraph 2-3):Part 3 (Paragraph 4-7):Part 4 (Paragraph 8): Read the passage carefully to complete the tables below!Reading carefullyEquippedNot equippedTable 1 (about the school)Go to college or workReturn to the villagesYesYesNoNoManyFewTable 2 (about the life in the village)Made from bamboo and the roofs from grassEveryone seemed to be a relative of each otherHeat stones first, and then put them in an empty oil drum with kau kau, corn and greens.

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. There were no windows in Mukap’s hut.There were no windows in Mukap’s hut. Perhaps in this way can prevent flies, mosquitoes and other insects from coming in. 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.
Check the answers one by one. (Help the students if possible) 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 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.
