人教新目标初中英语八年级下册Unit 2 阅读理解练习 一 Qin Tian, 26, returned from Britain to her hometown of Xiangyang, Hubei Province, for the Spring Festival. And she stayed to help in the fight against COVID-19. Since January 24, she has collected and given out aid (救援物资) with many volunteers. Between January and March, the most difficult time for medical workers, Qin wore plastic bags so that she could work for 10 hours. Every morning, Qin helped distribute aid to hospitals, communities and the people in need. In the afternoon she communicated with people to get the latest information about the need.

She took a rest in the office for four or five hours a day, with scabs (痂) on her shoulders. The scabs were from unloading the aid. Nowadays, everything returns to normal. She hands out daily necessary things to poor people. Those people thank her a lot. Qin′s idea for volunteer work came from her mother. When she was in junior high school, her mother took her to many places to offer some help. “The experience touched me a lot. I used to complain (抱怨) about life, such as the strict rules from my parents, but after learning many people were still living in difficulty, I realized that what I should do is to help those in need. Doing meaningful things makes me feel valued (有价值的) and I would like to give lots of my time to that,” she said. 1．When did Qin Tian begin to give out aid? A．On March 24. B．On February 26.
