What do you think is happening in the photo
Some young people in Africa are enjoying water at a new well which was provided by China.
As China is becoming more and more powerful, it has the ability to help more other countries in more aspects . Here is an example of China aid.
Background information
The well, which was dug in 2016, was part of a Chinese government aid initiative to dig 1,000 wells in Ghana as part of the Belt and Road Initiative.
Ghana, with a population of 30.2 million people (2019, est.), is a country on Africa’s west coast, about the size of Guangxi Province.
What other kind of help / aid do you know China is providing to other countries
As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself, the other for helping others.
—Sam Levenson

What is your impression of Papua New Guinea after watching the video
Most people live in remote villages in jungles.
It is an unexplored area far from civilization.

were Jo, how do you think you would have felt Why
2. What are the differences between the school you go to and the one described
in the passage
3. Would you like to become a volunteer teacher Why or why not
I would have felt privileged as well, as it was a rare chance to glimpse into another culture that most people will never have.
I go to a school that has all the conveniences of modern society, so there is no comparison at all. We have plenty of equipment and supplies, comfortable chairs, air conditioning, computers, etc.
I think it would be interesting to do that for a while. It would be a good opportunity to make a difference to someone else's life, and also to learn about a new culture.
