Ella: Hi, Teng Fei. What are your plans for the summer holidays?
Teng Fei: I think I'll do some volunteer work at a nursing home with my youth group.
I've been a volunteer there since last year.
Ella: Oh! What do you do?
Teng Fei: I exercise with the elderly to help them stay active. Sometimes I play Chinese chess with them. I've even
taught some of them how to use a mobile phone.
Ella: That's great. Do their families visit them often?
Teng Fei: Some do, but not all. Many elderly people are very lonely.
Ella: That makes me sad. We'll all be old one day too. It's important to care for the elderly.
Teng Fei: That's right! You know, they actually have so many interesting life stories and experiences to share with us.
Ella: Can I join your group of volunteers? I'd love to help.
Teng Fei: Yes, come along! It's fun to volunteer together.
