【答案】例文
Dear Bruce,
How’s it going? Last Saturday, I took part in a volunteer activity. First, we put up posters and handed out ads to call on people to protect the environment. Then we cleaned the park—picking up rubbish and tidying the chairs. After that, we visited sick kids in the hospital. We played games and told stories to cheer them up. Finally, we went to the old people’s home. We helped sweep the floor, make the beds, and chatted with the elderly.
Volunteer work is tiring but really rewarding. It’s meaningful to bring joy to others. I’ll keep doing such activities!
Best wishes!
Yours
Li Hua
