Unit 2 I’ll help to clean up the city parks.
一、阅读理解
A
Three teenagers decided to do community (社区) service during the school holidays. They worked for "Save the Children", an organization that helps children around the world.
Mike: "Save the Children" had a painting competition for children between 10 and 15 years old. These children were patients in a hospital. They were very ill and they had to stay in the hospital for a long time. I met a boy there called Tom. I remember helping Tom with his painting. He wanted to paint a park that was near his home. I went to the park and took a photograph of it. Tom liked looking at the photograph, and he used it to help him paint the park. Before he was ill, Tom went to this park every week with his mother. Tom’s dream is to walk in this park again.
Steven: I’m a volunteer with "Save the Children" because I like helping children. Each year in Hong Kong, around 4,000 children lose a parent through an accident or an illness. I remember going with my mother, who is also a volunteer, to meet these children. We played games with them, and my mother helped them to tell stories. The children enjoyed telling stories. I think it helped them to express their feelings. Two thirds of the children said that their friends didn’t understand them. We talked to a girl called Helen. Her father died in a car accident last year. I felt sad when listening to her. My mother will continue to visit Helen.
Cathy: I love dancing, so I want to help children with physical disabilities. These children can’t walk or move very well. We teach them to move better. They prefer dancing to pop music! I met a boy there called Ben. He can’t walk because he lost his legs in an accident. Ben hopes to walk again one day. There are over 3,000 children and teenagers in Hong Kong with physical disabilities. About 2,000 of them are under 13 years old. We should do more to help these children. I will continue to volunteer for "Save the Children".
