Sewing is frequently seen as an enjoyable and artistic activity. However, have you ever
taken a moment to consider that for countless individuals worldwide, a sewing machine goes
beyonditsroleasmerelyatool,insteadfrequentlyservingastheircrucialsourceofincome?
When Margaret Jankowski discovered this, she chose to establish The Sewing Machine
Project, an organization dedicated to collecting donated sewing machines and distributing them
in remote areas such as Sri Lanka, Guatemala, Guam, and Kosovo. Additionally, the
organizationseekstoassistcommunitiesinDetroitandNewOrleans.
AfteratsunamistruckSriLanka,Margaretwasprofoundlyaffectedbythetaleofaspecific
woman. The disaster ruined the woman’s village, resulting in her losing everything, including
hersewingmachine,whichhadbeenherprimarymeansofearningaliving.Movedbythisstory,
Margaret made the decision to gather used sewing machines and ship them to Sri Lanka.After
she announced her idea on a local news program, donations of sewing machines began pouring
infromthecommunity.
The Sewing Machine Project covers a basic yet necessary need of many impoverished
peoplearound theworld. For them, sewing can be atool for survival.Whether in a factory orat
高三英语 第 4 页 共 11 页home, a sewing machine can be the door to brighter financial opportunities.Asewing machine
can also enable many to preserve their cultural identity. After Hurricane Katrina occurred in
2005, a community of New Orleans that wears skillfully-made suits for their own traditional
festival lost many of their sewing machines. Since then, the non-profit organization has
distributed hundreds of machines among the creators of the costumes, helping them maintain

US and Canadian researchers recently calculated the total amount of the worlds
groundwater and estimated that it is equal to a lake 180 metres deep covering the entire Earth.
This makes groundwater the largest active freshwater resource on the planet. The team also
investigateditsage.Howdidtheydothis?
Humans introduced a convenient time signature on the Earth when we started testing
atomic (原子的) weapons. This leaves a time stamp which can be found in water, rocks and
living organisms. By seeing if radioactivity (放射性) from atomic bomb testing was present in
the groundwater, the researchers could estimate that about 6% of this groundwater is younger
than 50 years old. If this water was spread evenly over the continents, then there is just three
metresdepthofmoderngroundwaterspreadequallyoverthecontinents.
It could be argued that if we use only this modern groundwater, then this is sustainable, as
高三英语 第 5 页 共 11 页we know that it has been replaced or recharged (被补充) by natural processes over the last 50
years.Buthowquicklygroundwaterrechargeschangesovertime.
Waterhastoreachtheinsideofrocks,eithernoworinthepast.Thismeansthattheamount
of rainfall has to be more than the amount of water evaporating (蒸发) from the land surface,
and more than the amount of water used by all the plants. When this occurs, fresh water can
recharge the groundwater from either water “leaking” from the beds of rivers or from rainwater
thatpassesthroughthesoil.

Even before the pandemic, research found that 28% of large companies had turned down
applicants after carrying out such checks.And it is becoming more popular: Reed Screening, a
large agency, was asked to run over a third more social-media checks in December 2021 than a
year earlier. This month the government gave the practice approval when the Department for
Education said schools and colleges “should consider carrying out an online search as part of
theirduediligence(尽职调查)”.
The way screening works is simple:Any “problematic” behaviours will be marked with a
red flag. There are laws governing such online screening. David Erdos head of the Centre for
IntellectualPropertyandInformationLaw,says thatcompanies aresupposedtowarn candidates
高三英语 第 6 页 共 11 页beforescreeningtheirsocialmediaandtellthemthattheyhavetherighttoholdbackpermission.
Some companies follow these rules, but others may not. As for the right to refuse, it is hardly
practicable. “Who on earth is going to be that person who says:‘Hang on a minute, I’m not
happyaboutthat?’”asksMrErdos.“Thatitselfislikelytobearedflag.”
All agree that the spread of online screening is alarming, as it is so unforgiving. “People
may be unable ever to be free oftheir online past, ” says Mr Erdos.As indeedsome footballers,
recently punished for comments made almost a decade ago when they were but teenagers, have
foundtotheircost.
Thosewithintheindustrythinklawsshouldbetightened,withpunishmentforillegalact.In
the meantime, being very careful is advisable. In talks to university students, Mr Erdos warns
them what companies will do to their social media when they apply for jobs. They are
“universallyterrified”,hesays.Andrightlyso.
