Whoever thought learning new words could feel socially responsible? A Web site called FreeRice.com is an English vocabulary game. It explains its purpose like this: "For each word you get right, we donate 20 grains of rice through the UN World Food Program to help end hunger."
The site began in October. It says thirty billion grains of rice have been donated so far. The United Nations World Food Program does not really get rice. The donations are given in the form of money.
Advertisers whose names appear with links at the bottom of the game pay for the rice. Individuals can also become sponsors.
Words are presented with four choices of answers. Players click on the one that best defines the word. If they answer correctly, they get a harder word. If they choose wrong, they get an easier word. Spoken pronunciations are also provided.
Currently, the FreeRice game has fifty-five levels of difficulty. Players rarely get past level forty-eight.
"Does FreeRice make any money from this?" That is one of the frequently asked questions on the site. "No, it does not. FreeRice runs the site at no profit," says the answer.
Jennifer Parmelee is a World Food Program spokeswoman in Washington. She says cash donations help the agency to buy food locally and transport it quickly to where it is needed. She says creative projects like FreeRice are badly needed right now.

A. offering visitors rice for free
B. offering visitors games to play only

Xi Chen of the Yale School of Public Health led the study.33 .Chen said that the effect generally is worse for those over 64 years of age, for men and for those with little or no education.
"The older persons -- they are more affected. And we find, quite interestingly, males are more affected than females. 34 ." He noted that the youngest people in the study were
10 years old, while the oldest was 35. . In his words, this range of ages and locations across the country provided a "good representative sample."
The researchers noted that the effect of pollution on verbal ability is even more serious as people age, especially among men and the less educated.
A.But the findings may be important to people all over the world, especially those living in highly polluted areas.
B.The researchers studied about 25,000 people from across China
C.They came from 25 of China's 33 provinces
D.And people working outdoors are more affected than people working indoors
E.He and his team found that breathing polluted air can reduce a person's education level by about one year
F.The study was carried out in a single country.
G.It can also affect your brain and your ability to think.

One possible version:
Dear Jim,
I am glad that you are interested in Chinese culture and eager to explore more.
I think the Poetry of the Song Dynasty is your best choice. By learning it, you can have an extensive knowledge of history and culture in ancient China. Also, you can feel the charm of the
language by reading poetry, which helps to improve your Chinese. What matters most is that you can cultivate your personality and enforce your memory as well.To follow the course well, you’d better read and recite as much Poetry of the Song Dynasty as possible. Besides, it is a good idea to search for related background knowledge so that you will fully understand the conception of poetry.
What you do think of the course? I am sure you will have a lot of fun from it.
Yours,
Li Hua
