To face the challenge, some students thought of many ways to earn money. They looked for part-time jobs. Zhang Qiyue, who is 14 years old, asked more than 10 restaurants for a job before finally getting a job as a waiter. "I felt worried when I was refused, but I got used to it slowly," he said. After working for eight hours in a day, he earned 200 yuan. Others made use of their artistic abilities in public. Zhao Jiacheng, another 14-year-old student, successfully sold his handmade paper crafts and drawings. "This experience showed that it's important to develop a special skill," he said. The money from this event will help poor schools in Xizang. As the activity spreads to more cities, more students have learned important lessons about never giving up and being creative. This challenge shows that with hard work and skills, young people can solve difficult problems. 1.What can a volunteer do at an animal shelter? A.Feed animals. B.Take animals to exercise.
