Xi Zhinong was born in a small town in Yunnan Province. When he was young, he moved to Kunming with his mother. Feeling like a caged（笼中的）bird in a big city， he was bored with the busy and noisy city life and looked forward to nature.
His chance soon came． In 1983， he helped shoot （拍摄） a documentary about birds. That experience led him to learn photography and take photos of flying birds.

Recently， a research on how a new virtual reality（VR虚拟现实） experience educated (教育) children about the fire disasters （灾害） was done. The new VR experience was developed by the University of South Australia, hoping to educate children to learn how to be safe in a fire. It presents a situation for children aged 10- 12. In the situation, they are tasked to look after a friend's dog just before a fire event begins. They take part in a set of problem-solving activities to help save and protect themselves and the dog.
The findings showed that over 80% of children could calmly tell the advantages and disadvantages of different choices. They also learned to make wise decisions to protect themselves from a fire. Children thought it especially important and meaningful, because 91% of them didn’t have knowledge of fires at the beginning, and 67% had said that they were too young to make safety decisions in a fire.
The researchers believed such VR experiences made it possible to engage(吸引)， educate and empower the young. "As children born in modern times, they are interested in such technology and they can experience events in a real situation yet within the safe environment," aid Delene Weber, one of the researchers. “Well-designed VR can provide children with surprisingly valuable learning tools(工

具) .” Meanwhile, because children have fewer life experiences, aren't as physically strong, and are less likely to have learned much about fire safety, they're often most at risk. However, the role that children play in the fire safety at their homes should not be underestimated （低估） .＂ Children don’t need to be always waiting for help in disasters. With these VR experiences, we can make children understand the risks and realize they can help," said Weber.
( )38. What’s the purpose of the new VR experience
A. To describe children’s reactions to fire disasters.
B. To teach children to save themselves in a fire.
C. To introduce ways of avoiding a fire to children.
D. To increase children’s interest in VR experiences.
( )39. From the findings, what’s the children’s attitude(态度) towards the new VR experience
A. Surprised. B. Worried. C. Not sure. D. Supportive.
( )40. From para.3, we mainly get to know the of the new VR experience.
A. advantages B. development C. risks D. introduction
( )41. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE
A. Children make no difference in the fire safety at their homes.
B. VR experiences are mainly designed for children in high school.
C. Well-designed VR can offer children amazingly valuable learning tools.
D. 91% of children believed they weren’t old enough to make safety decisions.

Xi Zhinong was born in a small town in Yunnan Province. When he was young,
he moved to Kunming with his mother. Feeling like a caged（笼中的）bird in a big city，
he was bored with the busy and noisy city life and looked forward to nature.
His chance soon came．In 1983，he helped shoot（拍摄）a documentary about
birds. That experience led him to learn photography and take photos of flying birds.
In the 1980s, the Internet was not that popular in China and cameras were very
expensive. He managed to borrow a camera and threw himself into studying how to
use it. During that time, the library became his favorite place where he first read some
magazines about nature. It opened a door for him to connect with nature.

In 1992, a research program was organized(组织 ) to protect a type of unusual
monkeys which only live in China. Usually, the home of these monkeys has
half-a-year-long winters. It created great challenges（挑战）for Xi Zhinong's work, but
he never drew back. " I didn't see the monkeys in the wild until I went into the
mountains the third time," said Xi Zhinong. He went into the snow mountains six
times just to get valuable（珍贵的）photographs of the monkeys.
Several years later, his works won international prizes. People around the world
began to pay attention to the protection of wild animals in China. And he is the first
Chinese winner of the world-famous Wildlife Photographer of the Year.
In order to call on tons of people to protect wildlife with cameras, he started
"China Wildlife Photography Training Camp". He hopes that more young people will

Recently，a research on how a new virtual reality（VR虚拟现实） experience
educated (教育 ) children about the fire disasters（灾害）was done. The new VR
experience was developed by the University of South Australia, hoping to educate
children to learn how to be safe in a fire. It presents a situation for children aged
10-12. In the situation, they are tasked to look after a friend's dog just before a fire
event begins. They take part in a set of problem-solving activities to help save and
protect themselves and the dog.
The findings showed that over 80% of children could calmly tell the advantages
and disadvantages of different choices. They also learned to make wise decisions to
protect themselves from a fire. Children thought it especially important and
meaningful, because 91% of them didn’t have knowledge of fires at the beginning,
and 67% had said that they were too young to make safety decisions in a fire.
The researchers believed such VR experiences made it possible to engage(吸引)，
educate and empower the young. "As children born in modern times, they are
interested in such technology and they can experience events in a real situation yet
within the safe environment," aid Delene Weber, one of the researchers.
“Well-designed VR can provide children with surprisingly valuable learning tools(工

具) .” Meanwhile, because children have fewer life experiences, aren't as physically
strong, and are less likely to have learned much about fire safety, they're often most at
risk. However, the role that children play in the fire safety at their homes should not
be underestimated（低估）.＂Children don’t need to be always waiting for help in
disasters. With these VR experiences, we can make children understand the risks and
realize they can help," said Weber.
( )38. What’s the purpose of the new VR experience
A. To describe children’s reactions to fire disasters.
B. To teach children to save themselves in a fire.
C. To introduce ways of avoiding a fire to children.
D. To increase children’s interest in VR experiences.
( )39. From the findings, what’s the children’s attitude(态度) towards the new VR
experience
A. Surprised. B. Worried. C. Not sure. D. Supportive.
( )40. From para.3, we mainly get to know the ______ of the new VR experience.
A. advantages B. development C. risks D. introduction
( )41. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE
A. Children make no difference in the fire safety at their homes.
B. VR experiences are mainly designed for children in high school.
C. Well-designed VR can offer children amazingly valuable learning tools.
D. 91% of children believed they weren’t old enough to make safety decisions.
