12.English Listening in Secondary Schools

In 2019, a group of friends and I took part in an event in India.
The event was to raise money for a charity.
About 30 teams attended the event.
Each team had a car, which they drove to the east of India.
The journey took eight days.
We used a website to ask our friends and family for donations.
It was really easy to receive their donations online.
Our team raised around $4,000, and in total, the event raised around $17,000.
And of course, the journey itself was lots of fun, too.
We drove for about twelve hours every day, and saw some beautiful things along the way.
We even managed to have a game of football with the local people!
It was an experience I will never forget, and hopefully the money we raised will go some way to making people's lives better.

2019年，我和一群朋友在印度参加了一个活动。
这次活动是为了给一个慈善机构筹集资金。
大约30个团队参加了这次活动。
每个团队都有一辆车，他们把车开到印度东部。
这段旅程花了八天时间。
我们用一个网站向我们的朋友和家人募捐。
在网上接收他们的捐款真的很容易。
我们的团队筹集了约4,000美元，而这次活动总共筹集了约17,000美元。
当然，旅程本身也有很多乐趣。
我们每天开车大约12个小时，沿途看到一些美丽的东西。
我们甚至成功地与当地人进行了一场足球比赛！这是我永远不会忘记的经历。
这是一次我永远不会忘记的经历，希望我们筹集的资金能够在一定程度上改善人们的生活。
