問題詳情

V. 閱測: 32%, 共16題Freerice is a free online game and learning tool, which allows players to raise rice to fight world hunger while learning through educational, multiple-choice games. For every question the user answers correctly, 10 grains of rice are donated to the World Food Programme.The ingenious idea behind Freerice came to John Breen as he was trying to help his son study for the SAT, a college entrance exam in America. A computer programmer, Breen developed a computer-based, multiple-choice quiz to help his son build vocabulary. The quiz is designed to adjust to the user’s vocabulary level so that questions are challenging yet not too difficult. Breen, also passionate about ending world hunger, soon realized that putting the quiz online could aid this important cause.Currently, besides English vocabulary, the available subjects include multiplication tables, pre-algebra, chemical symbols, English grammar, SAT, basic foreign language vocabulary for English speakers, human anatomy, geography, the identification of famous artwork, and literature. Total score is displayed as a mound of rice and the amount of grains.One month after the start of the viral marketing program, users had earned enough points for one billion grains of rice. The United Nation’s World Food Program stated that this amount could feed 50,000 people for one day, since it takes 400 grams or about 19,200 grains of rice to feed one adult for a day. Using this calculation, enough rice was donated in 2008 to feed over 6,000 people daily for each day of that year. Since its operation, as of April 3, 2013, Freerice players had earned sufficient rice for over 10 million meals, assuming 2 meals per day. Since players are constantly clicking, Freerice can feed about 100 families of four each day if we get 6 million grains of rice every day.
