1번 지문

Today we honour the Indigenous peoples of Australia, the oldest continuing cultures in human history. We reflect on how badly we, the Australian Government, treated them in the past. We reflect in particular on the mistreatment of those who were Stolen Generations - the darkest chapter in our nation's history. The time has now come for the nation to turn a new page in Australia's history by righting the wrongs of the past and so moving forward with confidence to the future. We apologise for the laws and policies of former parliaments and governments that caused deep pain and suffering on the Indigenous peoples. We apologise especially for the removal of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children from their families, their communities, and their country. For the pain, suffering, and hurt of these Stolen Generations, their descendants, and their families left behind, we say sorry. To the mothers and the fathers, the brothers and the sisters, for the breaking up of families and communities, we say sorry. And for the suffering inflicted on the Aboriginal peoples and culture, we say sorry. We the Parliament of Australia respectfully request that this apology be received in the spirit in which it is offered - as part of the healing of the nation. Today, we take this first step toward the future by acknowledging the past and laying claim to a future that embraces all Australians.

2번 지문

Some have asked, "Why apologise?" Let me begin to answer by telling the parliament just a little of one person's story. Nanna Nungala Fejo was born in the late 1920s. She remembers her earliest childhood days living with her family and her community in a bush camp. She remembers the love, warmth, and happiness of those days long ago, including traditional dancing around the campfire at night. In 1932, when she was four, she remembers the coming of the welfare men. Her family had feared that day and had dug holes in the river bank where the children could run and hide. What her family had not expected was that the white welfare men did not come alone. They brought a truck, two white men, and an Aboriginal stockman on horseback with a whip. The kids were found; they ran, screaming for their mothers, but they could not get away. They were piled onto the back of the truck. Tears flowing, her mum tried clinging to the sides of the truck as her children were taken away in the name of protection. Nanna Fejo's is just one story. There are thousands, tens of thousands, of them. These are stories of forced separation of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children from their mums and dads over the better part of a century. Some of these stories are told in the report, Bringing them home. They are terrible stories. The pain is torturous; it screams from the pages. The brutal act of physically separating a mother from her children is a deep assault on our basic humanity.

3번 지문

These stories cry out to be heard; they cry out for an apology. Instead, from the nation's parliament there has been a stubborn and complete silence for much too long. There has been a view that we, the parliament, should suspend our most basic instincts of what is right and what is wrong; a view that, instead, Parliament should look for any excuse to push this great wrong to one side and to leave it with the historians and the academics, as if the Stolen Generations are little more than an interesting sociological phenomenon. But the Stolen Generations are not intellectual curiosities. They are human beings; human beings who have been damaged deeply by the decisions of parliaments and governments. But, as of today, the time for denial and delay has come to an end. The nation is demanding that its political leadership take us forward. Decency, human decency, universal human decency, demands that the nation now step forward to right a historical wrong. That is what we are doing in this place today. Let us turn this page together, Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians, government and opposition, Commonwealth and state, and write this new chapter in our nation's story together. Let us grasp this opportunity to craft new future for this great land, Australia.

2015년 개정 영어 II 천재(이재영) 5과 변형 문제의 지문입니다.

1번 지문

Drones, small unmanned aerial vehicles, do many jobs on a farm. One of these is to survey fields. Survey drones have GPS-controlled autopilots that let them take off, fly their routes, and land by themselves. They are also equipped with many cameras that take pictures of the fields from the air. As the drones fly, they take pictures from different angles and with different lenses. The images are then analyzed to check for weed growth, ground moisture, and soil conditions. Especially, when drones take pictures with infrared lenses, which sense heat, they can see if plants are healthy or not - because healthy and unhealthy plants give off different amounts of heat. This information helps farmers take care of their crops better, thus increasing the quality and quantity of production.

2번 지문

An army of agribots, small autonomous robots designed for agricultural purposes, replaces human workers for a wide range of tasks. In general, agribots tend crops, and each of them is highly specialized for weeding, fertilizing, harvesting, or other farm work. Agribots have many benefits. For example, weeding robots can reduce the amount of pollution caused by herbicide use. Fertilizing robots can greatly reduce fertilizer costs by precisely applying the correct amount of fertilizer in the correct location. Using 3D imaging cameras, harvesting robots can pick fruits and vegetables without damaging them. Most importantly, agribots can operate 24/7, 365 days a year, solving the shortage of farm labor while increasing the speed and accuracy of the work.

3번 지문

Although agribots are widely used in all the important functions of farming, tractors are still needed for many large-scale and heavy-load tasks. Nowadays, they are evolving into self-driving vehicles. Smart tractors are equipped with GPS controls. They also have optimized route planning software which recommends the shortest route across the field. This can minimize soil erosion by ensuring that all farm tractors follow the same tracks. In addition, the self-driving tractors are accurate down to the millimeter. This means that they can plant seeds in the correct place and harvest crops with no unnecessary movements. Besides, they can reduce crop damage and other losses caused by human drivers going off track and into the crops. These smart, self-driving vehicles can also operate during low visibility conditions such as rain, dust, fog, and darkness.

4번 지문

Sensors attached to cows check their temperature, movement, behavior, and so on. When changes are observed, the sensors send a message to the farmer's phone or computer. For example, these sensors are being used to detect if an animal's back legs begin to lower, which is one of the first signs of illness. They can also sense if a cow is pregnant. This technology saves farmers dozens of hours a week that would otherwise be spent closely monitoring each cow. It also saves money for vets' bills by allowing farmers to deal with cows' illnesses before they get too serious. It goes without saying that using sensors to monitor the health of individual cows lets them live longer, healthier lives, and also improves milk production.

5번 지문

Smart farms take all the information from drones and animal sensors and collect it in the cloud. The information can be analyzed and then presented to farmers in a practical way. Based on the analyzed data, the farmers make informed decisions about an animal, a field, or the entire farm. The farmers' decisions are programmed into agribots and smart tractors immediately. The more data there are about conditions on the farm, the more accurate the decisions will be, making the farm more efficient and profitable. In a world with fewer food resources, but with more people to feed, ICT-based agriculture can help humankind address the challenges of the future. The amount of food produced can be maximized, while the impact on the environment can be minimized through the efficient use of people, equipment, and information. The future of agriculture depends on the smart use of ICT.문

1번 지문

Tree-ear bowed low. As he bent down, his courage suddenly fled, leaving his knees as weak as grass. I must be hungry, he thought as he straightened his body, ashamed that he could think of such a thing at such a moment. "You are here from Julpo. From Potter Min," the emissary stated. "Yes, honorable sir." The emissary waited. "Well?" he said. "Where is the work?" Tree-ear swallowed hard. "Sir, on my way here, I was attacked by robbers. They - they destroyed my master's work -" The assistant stepped forward in anger. "How dare you, fool! How dare you demand to meet the emissary with nothing to show him!" He grabbed Tree-ear's arm to pull him out the door. The weakness in Tree-ear's knees spread through his whole body. The assistant was right. He had been a fool. First, he was a failure, now he was a fool. But the emissary had risen to his feet and gestured at his assistant, who stepped back. "I am greatly disappointed," Emissary Gim said. "I have been looking forward to seeing Potter Min's work again."

2번 지문

Tree-ear hung his head. "Humblest apologies to the honorable emissary," he mumbled. Slowly, he took the shard from his waist pouch. He drew in a deep breath and looked down at the shard before he spoke. It looked odd, wrapped in clay. But the inlay work was still delicate and clear, the glaze still fine and pure. Seeing it gave Tree-ear a last pulse of courage. "It is only a piece, honorable Emissary. And yet, I believe that it shows all of my master's skill." And with both hands, he held it out for the emissary. The emissary looked surprised but accepted the offering. He inspected it carefully. He took off the wrapping of clay and looked carefully at the edges of the shard. Then Emissary Gim sat down at his table again. He chose one of the scrolls in front of him, picked up his brush, and began writing. Tree-ear stood with his head bowed to hide tears of shame. Obviously, the emissary had already moved on to other business, but it would be rude for Tree-ear to leave before he had been dismissed. He wondered if he should take back the shard, which the emissary had placed carefully on the table.

3번 지문

In his despair, Tree-ear still felt grateful - grateful that the emissary had not laughed in his face for the stupidity of traveling all that way with only a single shard to show. At his side he heard the assistant gasp in surprise. The emissary had called the man and was showing him the scroll. "Go. See that it is done," said the emissary. "Master -" The assistant hesitated. "How is it that a commission can be awarded without seeing the work?" The man's polite words could not hide the disapproval in his voice. "I understand your skepticism," the emissary answered patiently. "But I have seen this man's work, in Julpo and again here." He bent and picked up the shard from the table. "Do you see this? 'Glow of jade and clarity of water' - that is what is said about the finest celadon glaze. It is said of very few pieces." He paused for a moment and held the shard up before him. "It is true of this one. And the inlay work is remarkable." His voice faded for a moment as he gazed in obvious admiration at the shard. Then he handed the scroll to the assistant. "Now, go and do as I ask you." The assistant bowed quickly and left.

4번 지문

Emissary Gim looked at Tree-ear. There was kindness in his eyes - like Crane-man's. "I have written orders for him to secure your trip back to Julpo by sea," he said. "You will go and deliver a message to your master for me. I am assigning him a commission. Tell me, have you worked for Potter Min long?" Tree-ear was stunned by the man's words, spoken in such a calm, ordinary voice. Through his disbelief and confusion, he heard himself answer, "A year and a half, honorable sir." "Good. Then perhaps you can tell me - for your master to do his best work, how many pieces per year might I expect from him?" Concentrating on the answer to the emissary's question helped steady Tree-ear. "I think ten. Not fewer, but I don't think he can make many more." He looked up and spoke with quiet pride, "My master works slowly." The emissary nodded slowly, "He must. We need his best work." He bowed his head to Tree-ear, "If you have need of shelter here in Songdo, my assistant will see to it that you are housed and fed until the boat sails. Your coming is greatly appreciated." Tree-ear wanted to laugh, to cry, to throw his arms around the emissary and dance wildly around the room. Instead, he bowed all the way to the ground. He could not speak but prayed that the emissary understood his silent thanks. There were some things that could not be put into words.

1번 지문

THE YEAR WAS 2081, and everybody was finally equal. They weren't only equal before the law- they were equal in every other way. Nobody was smarter, better looking, stronger, or quicker than anybody else. The new constitution of the United States and the agents of the Handicapper General(HG) guaranteed all this wonderful equality. Some things about life still weren't quite equal, however. Some months were colder or hotter than others. And it was in the warm month of April that the HG men took George and Hazel Bergeron's nineteen-year-old son Harrison away. It was tragic, all right, but George and Hazel couldn't think about it very hard. Hazel had a perfectly average intelligence, which meant she couldn't think about anything except in short bursts. And George, while his intelligence was way above normal, had a little handicap radio in his ear that made it difficult for him to concentrate. He was made by law to wear it at all times. It was tuned to a government transmitter. Every twenty seconds or so, the transmitter would send out some sharp noise to keep people like George from taking unfair advantage of their brains.

2번 지문

George and Hazel were watching television. There were tears on Hazel's cheeks, but she'd forgotten for the moment why she was crying. Ballerinas danced across a television screen. "BUZZ!" went the transmitter in George's ear. Gone were his thoughts. "That was a real pretty dance they just did," said Hazel. "Huh?" said George. "That dance-it was nice," said Hazel. "Yup," said George. He tried to think a little about the ballerinas. They weren't really very good. Anybody could have done as good a job. They had big weights holding them down, so they couldn't jump high. They had masks on their faces so that no one might see the beauty inside. George was toying with the vague notion that maybe dancers shouldn't be handicapped. But he didn't get very far before another noise scattered his thoughts. “BUZZ! BUZZ!” went the transmitter in his ear. Hazel heard the sound from across the room. "I'd like to hear those noises," she said, a little enviously because she had no radio in her ear. "If I were Diana Moon Glampers, the Handicapper General, you know what I'd do?" she continued. "I'd put beautiful chimes in people's ears. People would be happier that way. I'd make a good HG, I think." "Well, as good as anybody else, I guess," said George. He began to think glimmeringly of his abnormal son Harrison, who was now in jail- maybe he'd make a good HG. "BUZZ! BUZZ!" went the transmitter in his ear. "Boy!" said Hazel, "I heard that from all the way across the room.

3번 지문

George held his ears and started trembling. "Ow!" It was so loud that tears formed under his eyes. "You look tired,” said Hazel. "Why don't you put your head down on the couch? You can rest your handicap bag as well." In George's handicap bag were placed several lead balls. These prevented him from running too fast. "What?" "You've been so tired lately, honey," said Hazel. "If only we could cut a few holes in the bag and take out a few balls." "I don't think about it anymore. It's just a part of me. And anyway, if I did it, then other people would do the same thing. Pretty soon, we'd be back in the dark ages again where everybody would be competing with everybody else. Surely you don't want to live in that kind of world." "Do you really think that's possible?” “BUZZ! BUZZ!” went the buzzer in George's ear. "Huh? What are you talking about?" "Never mind," said Hazel. The television program was suddenly interrupted for a news bulletin. It wasn't clear at first what the bulletin was about. The announcer, like all announcers, had a serious speech impediment. "L-L-L-Ladies and g-g-gentlemen." The announcer gave up, handing his sheet of paper to a ballerina. He asked her if she could read it for him. She must have been extraordinary beautiful since she wore a hideous mask. "Ladies and gentlemen," said the ballerina, reading the bulletin. It was easy to see that she was the strongest and most graceful of all the dancers. She carried enormous handicap bags. She had to apologize for her beautiful, warm, and musical voice. She cleared her throat and continued, making her voice completely average. "Harrison Bergeron, age nineteen, has just escaped from jail. He was jailed for trying to take over the government. He is a genius and an athlete, has no handicap, and should be regarded as extremely dangerous."

4번 지문

A police photograph of Harrison Bergeron was flashed on the screen upside down, then sideways, upside down again, then right side up. He was handsome and tall-200 centimeters tall, in fact. In another picture, he was shown wearing his handicaps. He wore a huge pair of earphones that slowed down any thinking and big, heavy glasses that made him nearly blind. Pieces of metal hung all over him, pressing him into his seat. Metal dangled from his shirt pockets and across his shoulders. On Harrison's strong body, he carried no less than 180 kilograms. To hide his good looks, Harrison was required to wear a big, red clown's nose, and his eyebrows were all shaved. "If you see this boy, don't approach him. He's dangerous,” said the ballerina unnaturally. Then, suddenly, a door was pulled from its frame and thrown to the dance stage. George Bergeron looked closely at the boy who emerged from beyond the door, carrying his heavy metal and wearing his ridiculous clown's nose. "My God! That's our Harrison!" "BUZZ! BUZZ!" The cameras focused on Harrison. He stood there- a giant amongst men at the center of the stage. Ballerinas, engineers, and announcers trembled before him, expecting to die. "I am the Emperor!" cried Harrison. "Do you hear? I am the Emperor! Everybody must do what I say at once! Even though I stand here handicapped and weakened, I am greater than any man who ever lived! Now watch me become even greater!" Harrison tore off his chains with ease and dropped them on the floor. He then smashed his earphones against the wall, threw away his clown's nose, and revealed a face that would have amazed Thor, the god of thunder. “Now," he said. "Who will be my Empress?" The people knelt before him. "Let the first woman rise to join me as my partner."

5번 지문

A ballerina slowly rose, swaying on her feet like a gentle rose in the breeze. "Why should you be made to carry these handicaps? Why should anyone?" Harrison asked. He pulled the buzzer from her ear, snapped off her heavy bags, and removed her mask. She was blindingly beautiful. "Now," said Harrison, taking her hand. "Shall we show the people the meaning of the word 'dance'? Music!" he commanded. The music began cautiously at first. Harrison stripped the musicians of their handicaps and said, "Try it now." Soon, the most beautiful music sounded out throughout the music hall. Harrison took his Empress by the hand. They danced gracefully across the stage, and then in an explosion of joy, into the air they jumped! They whirled, and Harrison dipped his Empress nearly to the ground. There were tears in the eyes of all those watching. They'd never known that such beauty could be possible. The dancers leapt up into the high ceiling. When the music came to an end, they embraced passionately and cried tears of joy. It was then that Diana Moon Glampers, the Handicapper General, entered stage. Diana Moon Glampers said, "Listen up, everybody! I'll give you one minute to put your handicaps back on. Or you will all die." Right at the moment, the Bergerons' television screen went black. "Huh! That was weird," said Hazel. But Geroge had gone into the kitchen to grab a beer. George opened his can of beer. "You've been crying. What's up with that?" he asked Hazel. "Um, you know, I just can't remember. I think there was something sad on television." "What?" "I don't know." "Just forget such things. That's my girl," George said, The buzzing in his ear was tremendous. "It just feels so weird," said Hazel. "Why do we have to feel things? Why in this day and age do we need to feel sad things?"

1번 지문

It is now almost impossible to live a truly private life because every human activity, be it a walk to the park or the sending of a simple text message, produces data. Phones, TVs, computers, cameras in cars, and sensors in buildings and street corners all generate different forms of data. The Internet of Things(IoT) connects home appliances to the web, uploading such everyday information as how often we take cheese from the fridge or do a load of laundry. This development of information and communications technology allows this data not only to be generated but also to be collected and stored. Almost every move we make adds up to form a vast bank of information called Big Data.

2번 지문

Big Data is frequently characterized and defined by volume, variety, and velocity: huge amounts of data collected from many different sources in real time. In fact, the total accumulation of data from the past two years alone is greater than all of the information ever recorded before that. In addition, data comes in various forms, ranging from texts, pictures, and sound files to GPS-based location information and credit card transaction records. Moreover, such data is gathered and stored at a remarkable speed: as soon as you use your library card, a record of your visit can be sent to the web and may contribute to expanding the pool of data. Modern technology now allows us to analyze data in an efficient and economical way. When such data is analyzed with the help of statistical and computational tools, it may tell a meaningful story. It is worth exploring in the following illustrations how this new technology might influence the way we live.

3번 지문

Seoul and its satellite cities are home to more than 25 million people who are often forced to take expensive taxi rides late at night when buses and subways are no longer available. When city officials decided to provide a new late-night bus service to commuters, they had to figure out the highest frequency routes and commuter hot spots so they could accommodate as many people as possible. With the help of Big Data analytics, city officials examined the records of five million late-night taxi rides and 30 billion late-night mobile phone communications, and discovered a sudden increase in rides and text messages at certain places and times. Based upon this information, they settled on several late-night routes and schedules to provide the bus service to the maximum number of people. This was how the Seoul Owl Bus came to be.

4번 지문

Over the next decade, Big Data will be replacing traditional academic guidance methods. In fact, in some universities, data analysis has already been used to predict the probable success or failure of certain students. Data analysts have scanned through hundreds of thousands of personal and academic student records in order to predict when intervention may be needed. Certain behaviors seem to be informative, such as how often students see advisers and tutors or if they take a course out of sequence. Some universities have found that students’ performance in “predictor” courses is often a good indicator of whether they will graduate or not. Based upon this Big Data analysis, many universities maintain a list of courses that might signal a need for intervention. If a student leaves the path of previous successful students, advisers can be alerted so they can reach out and offer guidance.

5번 지문

More complex analyses of Big Data will be changing the way health is assessed and medicine is practiced in the future. The biomedical sciences are already so data-driven that biologists and doctors are accustomed to collecting, analyzing, and interpreting huge datasets with the help of supercomputers. The Human Genome Project is a case in point. It took 13 years to complete the first full genome sequence of one person, consisting of six billion base pairs. These days, it only takes about 24 hours to sequence a person’s genome, demonstrating the massive impact data analysis technology has had on the field. Biomedical scientists are still trying to figure out what each gene in the sequence does and how they interact to affect our health. They are optimistic that genomic data analysis will revolutionize our understanding of health and disease on a scale we cannot imagine now. Biological variety on an individual level has necessitated a move from Big Data to “really” Big Data. Each person is unique in terms of diet, environment, habits, and the relationships they have. To add further complexity, hundreds of trillion of tiny bacteria live in the human intestinal tract, some of which help cells extract energy and maintain overall health, while others, like H.pylori, may cause combination of gut bacteria, and they may adapt and change over time. The enormous number of combinations can only be researched using Big Data analysis. Soon, medical researchers hope to understand how an individual’s biological environment interacts with different microbes in order to create customized healthcare treatments.

It’s hard to doubt that Big Data will continue to be an important part of human society. Data-based prediction will replace simple guessing, arming people with techniques to uncover sudden patterns, unanticipated correlations, global trends, and other meaningful information that will hopefully lead to more informed decisions. Some argue it will fundamentally reshape our lives. However, it should be noted that Big Data is a resource that could be used for good or ill, and that, no matter what, using it may give rise to unintended consequences. Depending on what data you examine, how you interpret it, and what purpose you have, the end result may tell different stories.

7번 지문

What are the issues that deserve careful deliberation? One of the biggest concerns is the question of whether or not past data can be used to predict future events. The results of Big Data analyses may mean that some people are denied health insurance coverage because of their family’s genetic history, or that others could be put on watch lists because their past behavior indicates possible future criminal activities. History tells a story, but the future is always unknown. Another concern is whether the collector of the data or the provider of the data has ownership rights. For example, many companies sell their customers’ personal information for commercial purposes. Both the buyer and the seller can make financial gains, but the customers that provide the information are left out. Like any resource, using it wisely can be beneficial, but using it carelessly can lead to unexpected outcomes.

If you saw people going through the trash at a landfill, what would you think of them? Would you think that they are studying what people throw away as a way to learn about their life and culture? That's what garbology is all about. Garbology is like archeology, but instead of examining the remains of ancient civilizations, it examines garbage in modern society. From garbage, we can find out what people eat and drink, what they consider to be waste, and much more! William Rathje, "the father of garbology," was a professor who had the idea that garbage could tell us a lot about people. With this in mind, he started the Garbage Project. For the Garbage Project, Rathje and his students examined the trash thrown away by a group of survey respondents. By comparing these participants' responses to what they actually threw away, Rathje and his team were able to discover what they called the Lean Cuisine Syndrome. People overreported how much healthy food they ate, but underreported how much junk food they had. For example, people claimed to have eaten more fruit than they had actually purchased. Meanwhile, people insisted they had eaten far fewer snacks like potato chips than the empty snack bags in their trash indicated. The name garbology may have originated as a sort of joke. Now, however, garbology is considered a real branch of science.

How can you tell that spring is on its way? Buds appearing on the trees, birds singing, and days getting longer - these are all signs. Some of you might simply notice spring because that is the time when your allergies get worse. Whatever the case, if you've noticed one of these things, you've already been practicing phenology. Phenology can be considered nature's calendar. It is the study of seasonal and cyclical changes in plants and animals, like the flowering of plants, or the migration of birds. The timing of these events is directly impacted by the local weather and climate, such as sunlight, temperature, and rainfall. Therefore, phenology is a leading indicator of climate change. Phenology provides valuable information for many professionals in different fields. For instance, firefighters or emergency responders have an interest in using phenology to determine where and when the fire season will begin. Farmers also use phenology by observing plants and insects in order to decide the best time to use pesticides on their crops. Do you want to try your hand at phenological observation? All you need is a journal, a pencil, and good eyes to observe the details of what is going on in your natural surroundings.

As we grow into old age, our bodies and minds undergo changes - changes that affect our moods, relationships, physical appearance, and response to illness. Gerontology is an area of study that focuses on these changes. It contributes to our understanding of both the physical and mental aspects of aging. Gerontology requires a multidisciplinary approach that includes biology, psychology, sociology, and more. This means that gerontologists work on various issues in many different fields. For example, some gerontologists examine the social aspects of aging such as finding hobbies, maintaining friendships, and living in retirement. Others help create medicine to combat illnesses and disorders that affect older adults, such as sleeping problems, depression, anxiety, Alzheimer's, and diabetes. Gerontology is a growing field that will become even more important in the future. The percentage of older adults in the world's population is higher than it has ever been, and will increase as medical progress extends our life expectancy. According to Statistics Korea, Koreans aged over 65 accounted for 13.2% of the country's population in 2016, and that percentage could reach 24.5% by 2030, and 41% by 2060. The world's population is aging: this demographic shift influences every aspect of society. There is more to explore in gerontology than you might imagine.

What would you do if the number of birds in your neighborhood seemed to be declining? Gabriella McCall, a high school senior and avid birder, began to worry that this was happening in her community in Puerto Rico. She also noticed that there was increased urban development in her neighborhood. Gabriella wondered if there might be a correlation between the two things and decided to investigate. As a first step, Gabriella sought to find out the number and type of birds living in her neighborhood. She documented her observations over time using notes and photographs. Upon completing her report, she decided to go public. Gabriella made a booklet and organized a photo exhibition to share the information she had collected with her community. She knew that the declining bird population would result in an imbalance in the local ecosystem, which would eventually affect the environment. Gabriella stressed to her community the importance of conducting city planning responsibly so as to ensure that humans, birds, and other animals can all flourish. Gabriella created a slide show and computer puzzle game to accompany her presentation. In this way, she was able to help elementary school children understand the need for bird conservation. Thanks to Gabriella's efforts, now a new generation of birders is waiting in the wings to continue her work on bird conservation.

During Black History Month, twelve-year-old Zach Hunter learned about the history of slavery in America. He was shocked when his teacher told the class that even in the twenty-first century, many people around the world live as slaves. In fact, it is estimated that there are millions of slave workers in mills and factories around the world, about half of whom are women and children. Zach knew his conscience would not let him sit by while others were forced to live this way. That's why he decided to start a fund-raising project to support organizations dedicated to ending modern-day slavery. However, Zach didn't request huge checks or $100 bills. Instead, he asked people for any loose change they found in their homes, cars, and pockets. Zach's idea caught on, and it wasn't long before others in his school started a collection for the cause. In fact, the idea was such a huge sensation that teens in schools all over the United States began piling up pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters in support of this cause. Zach named his campaign "Loose Change to Loosen Chains." It has already raised thousands of dollars to free slaves around the world, and as the fund grows, it continues to gain momentum. Today, Zach speaks at high schools and other community meeting places around the United States. It is evident that his commitment is, quite literally, paying off. Young people around the country are picking up the campaign's signature yellow cup and collecting coins to end slavery ― all inspired by Zach's message: "We are the someone, and today is the day."

Cyberbullying is the act of using the Internet, smartphones, or other technological devices with the intent to hurt or embarrass another person. This happened to Samuel when he was in the eighth grade. He had stood up to a bully named Bradley, who had been ridiculing another student's broken English and outdated clothing style. Taking this stand, though, had just made Samuel the new target for Bradley's attacks. Soon, Samuel found his social media account covered with hateful comments and racial insults. He had no idea who to turn to for help. Instead of despairing, Samuel was inspired to cofound the End To Cyber Bullying (ETCB) organization so that students facing similar assaults would have access to help. The ETCB began as a modest website where Samuel and others could post information on cyberbullying. As visitors to the site began to tell their friends about it, however, it developed into one of the largest youth-driven projects in the world. It has helped offer comfort to thousands of cyberbullying victims of all ages. Perhaps the greatest obstacle Samuel faced in setting up the ETCB was his doubt about whether he would really be able to make a difference in the world. But now he encourages others not to wait for some time in the future to try to make a difference.

Rousseau was born in the town of Laval, in France's Loire Valley. After the death of his father in 1868, he moved to Paris to support his widowed mother. He got a job as a toll collector in 1871. It was at this time that he started to paint in his spare time as a hobby. He never received formal training. He taught himself to paint by copying paintings in the art museums of Paris or by sketching in the city's botanical gardens and the National Museum of Natural History. Rousseau openly claimed that he had "no teacher other than nature." Being a self-taught painter, Rousseau developed a highly personal style with an absence of correct proportions, a flat perspective, and the use of sharp, often unnatural, colors. His portraits and landscapes often have a childlike, "naive" quality, and some of his paintings look like scenes out of dreams. In 1893, at the age of 49, Rousseau retired from his job as a toll collector, and started to paint full time. Nevertheless, he became widely known by the nickname of Le Douanier (the customs officer), a reference to his old job.

Rousseau is best known for his jungle-themed paintings even though he never saw a jungle, or even left France. His knowledge of tropical plants and animals came mainly from the botanical gardens and zoos of Paris, as well as from academic sculptures and wildlife pictures. Rousseau once described his frequent visits to the botanical gardens as follows: "When I go into the glasshouses and I see the strange plants of exotic lands, it seems to me that I enter a dream." He also met with soldiers who had fought in the jungles of Mexico, and he listened to the stories of these men to gain inspiration for his jungle paintings. His first jungle-themed work was Tiger in a Tropical Storm, which shows a tiger preparing to jump on its prey in the middle of a raging thunderstorm. It was exhibited in 1891, and resulted in Rousseau's first serious review. Felix Vallotton, a fellow artist and critic, wrote: "His tiger surprising its prey ought not to be missed; it's the alpha and omega of painting." However, the uniqueness of Rousseau's style - the exaggerated scale, simplified forms, and blocks of vivid color - provoked mixed reactions. Despite the positive response to the painting from Vallotton, it was over a decade before Rousseau returned to the jungle as a major theme.

By 1905, his reputation had grown sufficiently to exhibit The Hungry Lion Throws Itself on the Antelope. This painting features a jungle scene lit by a deep red setting sun. In the foreground, a lion bites deeply into the neck of an antelope. Other animals are visible in the thick forest: a panther watches from the right, and an owl stares out of the background in the center, with a second bird and a dark ape-like shape to the left. Rousseau based the central pair of animals on a stuffed animal display in the National Museum of Natural History. Rousseau painted more than 25 pieces with jungle themes. Although his paintings seemed simple at first glance, they were built up carefully in layers, using a large number of green shades to capture the richness of the jungle. He also devised his own method for depicting rain by trailing strings of silver paint diagonally across the canvas. This technique inspired later artists. Rousseau's work earned the admiration of modern artists including Pablo Picasso. When Picasso happened upon a painting by Rousseau, the younger artist instantly recognized Rousseau's genius. In 1908, Picasso held a party to honor Rousseau and his work. However, in spite of his popularity among his fellow artists, Rousseau continued to be seen as a figure of amusement in the art world. It was only after his death in 1910, at the age of 66, that the name Henri Rousseau became famous. Although Rousseau took up art as a hobby, he managed to make his way to the top. Today, he is known as one of the greatest "naive art" painters.
