In the TV series, the heroine Xu Hongdou travels to a village in Yunnan province and volunteers at a local cafe. She gets free meals in return. As the show finds a growing audience, volunteer travel - an old-yet-modem form of travel similar to Xu*s type of work - has attracted more attention.Volunteer travel refers to taking a trip where all or part of the purpose of the trip is to participate in an arranged service opportunity to help others, according to Wise Tour, an online provider of tourist information.These volunteer trips are usually arranged by church organizations, human interest groups or nonprofit organizations, and they take form of equal exchanges. During the trip, volunteer travelers often provide services like teaching, cooking, animal caring, and cultural activities. In exchange for their help, the volunteers may get free or discounted accommodation, meals and laundry （洗衣月艮务）,activities, or classes.It seems as if these long journeys could only be made possible in recent years by modem transportation. Nevertheless, volunteer travel dates back to the 1960s, when Alec Dickson and his wife Mora from the UK founded Voluntary Service Overseas （VSO）, an international volunteer organization.Traditionally, the volunteer activities take place in a foreign country. However, just as what Meet Yourself describes, more volunteer trips have taken place within the same countries or regions the volunteers originate from in recent years. Sanlian Lifeweek magazine commented that volunteer projects in rural areas are now attracting more urban visitors as a break from the fast and stressful pace of urban living. Yang Yan, a founder of a volunteer platform, told the magazine that it has indeed been a growing trend for urban residents to volunteer in rural areas.People try volunteer travel for several reasons. By working voluntarily while traveling, travelers may make a real, positive impact on the world. The services volunteers provide can be through charities with lower costs for the communities they serve. Another benefit of volunteer travel is that it helps urban dwellers（居民）to get a taste of rural life. For those who are sick of urban pressure but can't make up their minds whether to move permanently to the countryside, volunteer travel can be a solution. In this way, as Yang comments, travelers can catch some relief from their busy lives, while rural communities also benefit by receiving more customers for local tourism industriesand temporary high-quality labor.4. Why does the author mention Meet Yourself in the beginning of the article?A. To introduce a new way of travel.B. To raise readers9 interest in the TV series.C To show the popularity of this TV series.D. To lead up to the topic of volunteer travel.5. What does the article tell us about volunteer travel?A. It dates back to the 19th century in the UK.B. It combines travel with meaningful work to help others.C. It requires travelers to be highly educated.D. Travelers can earn money on their trips.6. What is the second-to-last paragraph mainly about?A. A new trend of volunteer trips.B. Different views on volunteer trips.C. The significance of volunteer trips.D. The current development of volunteer trips.7. Why are more urban residents attracted by volunteer projects in rural areas nowadays?A. To follow a new trend.B. To support the rural tourism industry.C. To give back to society.D. To get away from the worries of city life.CAlthough the northern right whale （Eubalena glacialis） has remained the most endangered of the world's whale species, we removed it from our Top 10 Endangered Species List a few years back. Because of effective conservation regulations, the number of right whales that travel the Atlantic coasts of Canada and the US had rebounded （回升）from an all-time low of 350 to at least 450 by the middle of the 21st century's second decade.However, the tide of good news for the species now seems to have been reversed, due, apparently, to global climate change. Warming ocean waters, particularly in the Gulf of Marine where the whales often feed, have caused kill-the tiny creatures right whales feed on - to decrease and become more difficult for the whales to find. As a result, right whale reproduction has fallen to an alarmingly low level, deaths due to all causes have increased, with 16 of the huge cetaceans （鲸鱼）found dead in 2017 alone. Researchers are finding evidence of increased levels of stress on the animals. So alarming is the situation that we've decided to put the northern right whale right back atthe top of our list.The right whale got its name because 19th century whalers considered it "right“ whale to kill, as it was not only full of valuable whale oi
