Question

【題目】請(qǐng)閱讀一張“西坡時(shí)間交換”項(xiàng)目的海報(bào)，根據(jù)所提供的信息，完成信息卡，把答案寫(xiě)在答題卡指定的位置上。

The Hillside Village Hour Exchange (交換) is a project whose idea came from the international Time Bank movement. The starters of this project recognize that every person can offer services to other people as well as receive services. The unit of exchange is one hour of time. Villagers who agree to join this project can earn a time credit (信用) for every hour they help meet the needs of another villager. Then when they are in need of others’ help, they can spend the credits they get getting services from others. Services for exchange include helping in the home, taking care of the elders and the kids, moving, repairing, gardening, computer service and pet care etc.

Here is how it goes. Leo joins this project and fills in a form on our website, writing down the skills he has and the things he needs. Mary visits our website and searches our Time & Talents page for people who provide shopping service and decides to get in touch with Leo. Leo returns her call and helps her get the things she wants from the village store. Leo then records the time credits he earned online and spends them having Tom play the piano at his party. Tom spends his credits having Lisa help his son little Danny with his math homework. This can go on and on as you like.
