The Power of Crowdsourcing

There is a famous old saying that when trying to solve a problem “two heads are better than one”. Yet until recently, businesses would often rely on one key person to get important tasks done. But thanks to a phenomenon called crowdsourcing, more and more companies are allowing their consumers to have their say when designing new products.

The term “crowdsourcing” refers to the process of outsourcing jobs which were once done by a
single person to a large group (or a crowd) of people. In the past, crowdsourcing wasn’t practical, as it was impossible to gather thousands of like-minded people together to share opinions. Now, thanks to the Internet, online forums, and social media, this isn’t a difficult task at all.

There are many important applications for crowdsourcing in business. For example, if a small
business was looking to develop a business logo, it might employ a single designer and hope for the best. However, with crowdsourcing, companies can specify some guidelines about their project, set a budget, and start a design contest online. Within hours, it will likely receive hundreds of designers sending them logos.

In the end, they can choose the design they like best and the winner will get compensated.
Crowdsourcing has other applications as well. A website called Duolingo is using crowdsourcing to translate documents into different languages. It offers free lessons to language learners. As part of their tests, users translate lines to test their knowledge. Then, a computer programme will analyze thousands of test results for consistency and arrange an accurate translation.

Not everyone is sold on crowdsourcing, though. In many cases, it may be better to rely on the
opinion of a few specialized professionals than information from a crowd. For instance, it makes more sense to trust the opinion of one top doctor than to take the advice of 1,000 random people regarding a health issue. Another criticism is the low wage that crowdworkers usually receive. Since crowdworkers are freelancers and not employees, they can be paid less than minimum wage. Whether you love or hate crowdsourcing, it appears to be here to stay. So before you make any financial judgements, consider following the crowd and give crowdsourcing a try.

26: The old saying “two heads are better than one” in paragraph 1 means that __________.

A. two people can work more carefully than one person working alone

B. two heads are more expensive than one

C. two people can achieve more than one person working alone

D. two heads are paid better than one

27: One of the advantages of using crowdsourcing is __________.

A. we can get the best answer to our solution with the unbelievably small budget

B. within a relatively short period of time, we can get so many answers to a single problem

C. the company no longer hire employees to solve problems

D. hospitals can practically apply the method of crowdsourcing in consulting patients

28: Which of the following is NOT a good situation to use crowdsourcing?

A. A company needs to get ideas for a new sneaker.

B. A business is looking to understand why people like its products.

C. A student is looking for ideas on where to stay on holiday.

D. A person needs to understand a law for an important court case.

29: According to the passage, why didn’t businesses use crowdsourcing in the past?

A. It was too hard to collect and check lots of people’s ideas.

B. People weren’t as smart as they are today.

C. It was usually illegal in most countries to do this.

D. No one had ever thought of the idea of crowdsourcing before.

30: Which of the following sentences is true?

A. Everyone agrees that crowdsourcing is a great idea.

B. Crowdsourcing is now a fast way to get logos made.

II. Read the passage and choose the correct answer to each of the following questions.

Many people believe that watching television has resulted in lower reading standards in schools. However, the link between television and printed books is not as simple as that. In many cases, television actually encourages people to read for example, when a book is turned into a TV series, its sales often go up.

One study of this link examined six-year-old children who were viewing a special series of 15-minute programmes at school. The series was designed to encourage the love of books, as well as to develop the basic mechanical skills of reading. Each programme is an animated film of a children's book. The story is read aloud while certain key phrases from the book appear on the screen, beneath the picture. Whenever a word is read, it is also highlighted on the TV screen.

One finding was that watching these programmes was very important to the children. If anything prevented them from seeing a programme, they were very disappointed. What's more, they wanted to read the books which the different parts of the series were based on.

The programmes also gave the children more confidence when looking these books. As a result of their familiarity with the stories, they would sit in pairs and read the stories aloud to each other. On each occasion, the children showed great sympathy when discussing a character in a book because they themselves had been moved when watching the character on TV.

3. What is the main idea of the book?

A. The simple link between television and books. B. The ways of children reading books and watching TV.

C. The advantage of books over television. D. The influence of television on reading books.

4. When does television encourage people to read ?

A. When children are watching an animated film on TV. B. When a book is made into a TV series.

C. When there are no interesting programs on TV. D. When a book appears on the screen.

5. How did children feel when viewing a special series of 15-minute program at school?

A. They felt bored. B. They felt confident. C. They felt disappointed. D. They felt excited.

6. What kind of film is each program?

A. An educational film. B. A story film of a children's book.

C. An animated film of a children's book. D. A documentary film of children's life.

7. What advantage did children have from this program?

Read the passage carefully and then choose the item A, B, C or D that best answers the question about the passage:

The nuclear family, consisting of a mother, father and their children, may be more an American ideal than an American reality. Of course, the so-called traditional American family was always more varied than we has been led to believe, reflecting the very different racial, ethnic, class and religious customs among different American groups.

The most recent government statistics reveal that only about one third of all current American Families fit the traditional mold and another third consists of married couples who either have no children or have none still living at home. Of the final one third, about 20 percent of the total number of American households are single people, usually women over sixty – five years of age. A small percentage, about 3 percent of the total, consist of unmarried people who choose to live together; and the rest, about 7 percent are single, usually divorced parents, with at least one child. Today, these varied family types are typical, and therefore, normal. Apparently, many Americans are achieving supportive relationship in family forms other than the traditional one.

A. The traditional American family

B. The nuclear family

C. The current American family

D. The ideal family
