Last month, Jack joined the park‑cleaning volunteer group. On the first day, he imagined he would meet exciting things. But most of his work was simple and repeated. He picked rubbish and swept paths. No one gave him praise. He felt a little disappointed.

One afternoon, an old grandpa walked by. He saw the clean park and thanked Jack for his hard work. At that moment Jack changed his mind. He understood most meaningful volunteer work was not famous or exciting. Value often hid in small, quiet work.

From then on, Jack tried his best for every small task. He didn’t wait for praise from other people. He learned the joy of giving. You didn’t need big actions to help the world. Small efforts also counted.

 

（  ）13. What volunteer work did Jack join last month?
