Volunteering is fun and meaningful, and it’s more than just showing up and having a good time. Here’s some advice on how to make the most of your voluntary work.
Be well-trained. Know what you’re doing as a volunteer. If you need some time to learn your job skills, take your time. 1 If you’re good at your work, it will be much easier to help others and you’ll have more fun.
Be open-minded (思想开明的). One of the really great things about being a volunteer is the chance to learn and experience new things. 2
Don’t try to do everything by yourself. Work as part of a team to make sure everyone gets a chance to take part in and do the work or gets their fair share of work. 3 If you need some help, ask politely for it.
Be understanding. 4 Try your best to understand what others are going through, even if it’s something you’ve never dealt with yourself.
Be friendly. Treat others like friends, and they’ll do the same to you. Many people who volunteer meet new people with whom they want to make friends. You might just meet someone who becomes a friend for the rest of your life.
A.You should make more friends.
B.If someone asks for help, be willing to lend a hand.
C.Try to see things through the eyes of others.
D.Keep your mind open to new possibilities, and you’ll probably grow as a person.
E.If you need training or need someone to show you what you should do, speak up.
十、阅读理解。
In recent years, more and more teenagers in China have taken part in charity activities. They no longer think that charity is only about donating money. Instead, they believe that small actions can also make a big difference.
Take Xu Yifei, a 14-year-old student from Shanghai, for example. Every weekend, she volunteers at an animal shelter. She helps clean the cages and feed stray dogs and cats. “Seeing these animals find new homes makes me feel very proud,” she said. She believes that caring for living creatures is a form of charity.
Meanwhile, in Beijing, a group of students from No. 8 Middle School started a project called “Helping Hands”. They collect used textbooks and stationery from their school and send them to rural schools in Sichuan Province. “Many kids there don't have enough money to buy new books. We want to share our resources with them,” said team leader Li Tao.
Not all charity work is done outdoors. With the development of technology, online charity has also become popular among young people. Many students use their pocket money to buy meals for homeless people through apps. Through these platforms, they can track how their “love lunch” is delivered.
Experts say that teenage participation in charity helps develop a sense of responsibility and empathy. It teaches students that “giving” brings more happiness than “taking”.
1.What do teenagers mainly think about charity now according to Paragraph 1?
A.Only rich people can do charity.
B.Charity is only about donating large sums of money.
C.Small actions can also make a big difference.
D.Charity is not important for students.
2.What does Xu Yifei do in her volunteer work?
A.She teaches kids English. B.She helps clean cages and feed animals.
C.She collects money on the street. D.She builds houses for stray animals.
3.What is the purpose of the “Helping Hands” project?
A.To give old textbooks to rural schools. B.To raise money for building schools.
C.To teach in rural areas during holidays. D.To invite rural students to Beijing.
4.How do students help homeless people through online charity?
A.By teaching them how to cook. B.By buying them meals through apps.
C.By offering them free accommodation. D.By giving them their pocket money directly.
5.What is the main idea of the last paragraph?
A.Technology makes charity easier. B.Students should focus on their studies.
C.Homeless people need more help from society. D.Teenage participation in charity is beneficial.

Last year, I left my job and went to work without pay in the rainforest. So many people have said to me, “I would love to do something like that.” And I say, “If you want to, just do it.” They always reply, “I cannot.” But, if you really want to do it, there are ways to make it happen.
After three days’ training, I started work on an environmental project with a group of young people. The living place was very basic and we had to build our own place to sleep. This included a simple bed, a cloth roof and a net to keep insects out.
It was never dangerous there, but it was very challenging. There were things that we didn’t think we would manage to do, but we did. I had some of my worst moments there, but also some of my best—it made me feel alive. I didn’t miss my home as much as I thought. We had food, water, somewhere to stay, about three sets of clothes and really good friends. We were in the most beautiful place and we had things to keep us busy. We didn’t need any more.
One of the volunteers said, “Before we came here, it was really important to me what clothes I wore and who my friends were. I was always thinking about shoes, but really none of that matters. Here, people accept me for who I am, what I believe and think, not for what kind of clothes I’ve got.” What she said truly came from the bottom of my heart.
1.Where did the author work last year?
_________________________________________________________________________.
2.What did the author do before she started on an environmental project?
_________________________________________________________________________.
3.What was the author’s living place like?
_________________________________________________________________________.
4.What did the volunteer think was important before she came to the forest?
_________________________________________________________________________.
5.What do you think of the volunteers’ work? Why?
_________________________________________________________________________.

A Volunteer for Ten Years

Mr. Chen is a 45-year-old taxi driver from Hangzhou. But he is not just a driver. He has also been a volunteer for ten years. “I started volunteering in 2015,” he says. “Since then, I have helped different people in different ways.”

Be open-minded (思想开明的). One of the really great things about being a volunteer is the chance to learn and experience new things. 2

Be understanding. 4 Try your best to understand what others are going through, even if it’s something you’ve never dealt with yourself.

In recent years, more and more teenagers in China have taken part in charity activities. They no longer think that charity is only about donating money. Instead, they believe that small actions can also make a big difference.
Take Xu Yifei, a 14-year-old student from Shanghai, for example. Every weekend, she volunteers at an animal shelter. She helps clean the cages and feed stray dogs and cats. “Seeing these animals find new homes makes me feel very proud,” she said. She believes that caring for living creatures is a form of charity.
Meanwhile, in Beijing, a group of students from No. 8 Middle School started a project called “Helping Hands”. They collect used textbooks and stationery from their school and send them to rural schools in Sichuan Province. “Many kids there don't have enough money to buy new books. We want to share our resources with them,” said team leader Li Tao.
Not all charity work is done outdoors. With the development of technology, online charity has also become popular among young people. Many students use their pocket money to buy meals for homeless people through apps. Through these platforms, they can track how their “love lunch” is delivered.
Experts say that teenage participation in charity helps develop a sense of responsibility and empathy. It teaches students that “giving” brings more happiness than “taking”.

十一、任务型阅读。
Last year, I left my job and went to work without pay in the rainforest. So many people have said to me, “I would love to do something like that.” And I say, “If you want to, just do it.” They always reply, “I cannot.” But, if you really want to do it, there are ways to make it happen.
After three days’ training, I started work on an environmental project with a group of young people. The living place was very basic and we had to build our own place to sleep. This included a simple bed, a cloth roof and a net to keep insects out.
It was never dangerous there, but it was very challenging. There were things that we didn’t think we would manage to do, but we did. I had some of my worst moments there, but also some of my best—it made me feel alive. I didn’t miss my home as much as I thought. We had food, water, somewhere to stay, about three sets of clothes and really good friends. We were in the most beautiful place and we had things to keep us busy. We didn’t need any more.
One of the volunteers said, “Before we came here, it was really important to me what clothes I wore and who my friends were. I was always thinking about shoes, but really none of that matters. Here, people accept me for who I am, what I believe and think, not for what kind of clothes I’ve got.” What she said truly came from the bottom of my heart.

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者去年辞去工作去雨林做志愿者的经历,描述了那里的生活条件、挑战以及内心的感悟。

2.文章第二段提到“After three days’ training, I started work on an environmental project with a group of young people.”,说明作者在开始项目前进行了三天培训。
3.文章第二段中提到“The living place was very basic and we had to build our own place to sleep. This included a simple bed, a cloth roof and a net to keep insects out.”,说明作者的工作居住地很简陋,有一张床铺、一个布质屋顶和防虫网。
4.文章第四段中提到“Before we came here, it was really important to me what clothes I wore and who my friends were.”,说明志愿者之前认为穿着和朋友很重要。
5.开放性题目,根据文章内容回答合理即可。通读全文可知,这是一项环境项目,且志愿者们在艰苦的环境中收获了成长,明白了内心的认可比外在物质更重要。因此这份工作既保护了环境又促进了个人成长,是有意义的。

【导语】本文讲述大学生李明参加“西部计划”志愿者项目,在西部村庄支教,克服困难帮助孩子,并从中获得成长的故事。
【详解】1.句意:这个项目鼓励年轻人向西部需要帮助的人提供帮助。
根据“encourages young people to... their help”及志愿者语境,固定搭配“offer help”意为“提供帮助”,符合主动志愿的含义。 give“给”,send“发送”,take“带走”,均不如offer贴切。
2.句意:起初,李明不确定自己能否应付得来,但他想尝试一些有意义的事情。
根据“wasn’t sure whether he could... it”,此处指能否应付或胜任工作,“manage it”符合语境。stand“忍受”,make“制作”,find“找到”,均不符合语境。
3.句意:当他到达那个小村庄时,发现条件比他想象的要差得多。
根据“than”可知需用比较级;由后文“roads were rough”可知条件比想象的“差得多”,故用比较级worse。 good“好”,better“更好”,bad“糟”(原级),均不符合语境。
4.句意:然而,孩子们学习的渴望深深地触动了他。
根据“desire to learn... him deeply”,指情感上被打动,“touched”常指内心被感动 ,符合语境。shocked “使震惊”,interested“使感兴趣”,surprised“使惊讶”,均不符合语境。
5.句意:他们的眼睛充满了希望,这给了他留下的勇气。
根据上文条件艰苦但仍选择留下,需要“勇气”,应用courage。money“钱”,time“时间”,reason“理由”,均不符合语境。
6.句意:他努力使自己的课堂生动有趣,这样学生们就不会感到无聊。
根据“so that the students wouldn’t feel bored”,可知课堂应该是“有趣的”,应选用interesting。boring“无聊的”,difficult“困难的”,serious“严肃的”,均不符合语境。
7.句意:课后,他经常和他们一起玩游戏,或者给他们讲外面世界的有趣故事。
根据语境,乡村孩子对外面的世界好奇,应用outside表示“外面的”。inside“里面的”,front“前面的”,back“后面的”,均不符合语境。
8.句意:一个小女孩无法来上学,因为她家附近的小桥被冲毁了。
根据上文“a heavy rainstorm”,可知桥被暴雨“冲毁”,应用broken表示“损坏的”。built“建造”,painted“粉刷”,cleaned“清洁”,均不符合语境。
9.句意:李明很担心她,于是他决定步行去她家查看她的安全。
根据上文桥被冲毁,以及乡村路况差,可知他只能“步行”去,应用walk。run“跑”,drive“开车”,fly“飞”,均不符合语境。
10.句意:女孩的父母非常感激,一遍又一遍地感谢他。
根据上下文,李明冒雨去查看女孩安全,父母表示“感激”,应用thankful。angry“生气的”,sad“难过的”,careful“小心的”,均不符合语境。
11.句意:李明的故事只是年轻志愿者正在带来改变的众多例子之一。
根据语境,李明的故事正在带来改变,固定搭配“make a difference”,意为“带来改变,产生影响”,应选用difference。living“生计”,mistake“错误”,noise“噪音”,均不符合语境。
12.句意:通过伸出援助之手,他们不仅给孩子们带来了知识,也改变了他们自己的生活。
根据下文“the experience helps them…a lot”,可知志愿者自身的生活也“改变”了,应用change。save“拯救”,end“结束”,forget“忘记”,均不符合语境。
13.句意:许多志愿者说这段经历帮助他们成长了很多。
根据“learn to be more responsible”,学习责任意味着“成长”, grow表示“成长”,符合语境。lose“失去”,miss“想念”,leave“离开”,均不符合语境。
14.句意:他们学会了更有责任感,并理解了帮助他人的价值。
根据上文,志愿者们通过支教经历获得了成长,懂得了责任和帮助他人的价值,value表示“价值”,符合语境。price“价格”,cost“成本”,number“数量”,均不符合语境。
15.句意:他们相信,即使是一个小小的善举也能对某人的生活产生重大影响。
根据全文主题,志愿者们通过支教等善举改变了孩子们的生活,也改变了自己,“make a big difference to sb.”是固定搭配,意为“对某人产生重大影响”,强调善举带来的积极改变。problem“问题”,decision“决定”,plan“计划”,均不能表达“产生影响”这一核心含义。
