The Free Bks Campaign was set up in July 2020 by Sfia Akel, a race equity (种族平等) researcher, when she decided t launch a fundraiser t get as many bks as pssible by authrs f clur t peple that can’t affrd them acrss the UK and Ireland.
S far, this campaign has prgressed smthly and influenced prfundly. Over 1, 700 bks have been sent t peple wh can’t affrd them, and it has even caught the attentin f the ftballer.
Marcus Rashfrd wh dnated 400 cpies f his children’s bk Yu Are a Champin.

Explaining the need fr the campaign, Sfia says: “Sadly, reading has becme a luxury in tday’s wrld. If yu’re wrking tw jbs just t put fd n the table, having that time t sit dwn and read can be difficult. S, there is an element f privilege when it cmes t even just finding the time t read. On tp f that, the typical adult hardback bk might cst yu upwards ff 15, which culd put fd n the table fr a week if yu were cunting every penny.”
This is where the campaign hpes t step in. It perates n a trust basis, which means the campaign desn’t exist t plice peple’s financial circumstances. “N ne has t prve that they’ve nt gt mney — even if sme peple vlunteer persnal infrmatin, we never ask fr it. Everyne deserves t read bks that they lve.” Sfia adds.

With their bright eyes and nticeable beards it’s easy t see hw rangutans (红毛猩猩) gt their name; “rang” is Malay fr persn, while “hutan” means frest. Their similarity t humans desn’t stp there. Researchers have bserved a male rangutan treat a wund n his face with a plant that’s als used in human medicine.
It’s the first time any wild animal has been seen caring fr a wund using a natural substance with knwn medicinal ingredients, researchers reprt May 2 in Scientific Reprts.
On June 25, 2022, field bilgist Ulil Azhari was bserving an rangutan named Rakus in the Suaq Balimbing research area f Indnesia’s Gunung Leuser Natinal Park. The area is hme t abut 150 f the species, and researchers have been studying them since 1994. Azhari watched as Rakus chewed up a plant, lcally knwn as Akar Kuning, and rubbed the resulting paste (糊状物) nt an pen wund he suffered n his right cheek, likely frm a fight with anther male. He applied the paste several times ver his injury, almst like a bandage. Akar Kuning (Fibraurea tinctria) is used by the lcal peple in traditinal medicine and has a lng list f knwn medicinal ingredients.
Isabelle Laumer, a bilgist and member f the Suaq Prject studying rangutans, read the ntes frm the bservatin and was immediately getting very excited. She says, “He nly treated this wund and nt any ther bdy part. And this was dne repeatedly.” Rakus’ intentinality, and the fact that his wund was clsed just five days after the bservatin — and never became infected — cnvinced her that he was purpsefully using the plant t treat his wund.
Laumer says she hpes the finding will help mre peple appreciate hw similar rangutans are t humans and care mre abut prtecting them. The rangutans are critically endangered. “It wuld be s sad if they wuld die ut frm this wrld.” she says.

B. Because the wund f the rangutan gt infected.
C. Because she thught the rangutan had dne it n purpse.
D. Because she fund the plant was used by the lcal peple.
10. Why are the similarities f rangutans and humans mentined in the last paragraph?
A. T explain the rigin f humans.B. T stress the intelligence f rangutan
C. T shw the bservatin f scientists.D. T call n peple t prtect rangutans.
