     In every country, there are thousands of people who want to help out. Many join organizations
run(管理) by their governments, for example, the Peace Corps in the United States and Voluntary
Service Overseas in Britain. Since the powerful(猛烈的) earthquake took place in Sichuan, more
than 200 thousand volunteers across China have been helping there! They do all kinds of work or
come up with ways to help improve life. Some offer their professional skills for free. Others have
no qualifications(資歷), but they love to work hard to help.
     One of the most famous volunteers in the world was Mother Teresa. She could be the best
volunteer because she gave her life to helping the poorest people of Calcutta. She helped the
homeless, cared for the sick, gave out food, and became the mother of those without families.
     Now more and more teenagers actively look for volunteering opportunities, too. They volunteer
because they think it will be fun or they will learn something. They also like the idea of being helpful
to others, even if it is just handing out books for the teacher. As they get older, these reasons are still
the same, but there are other important reasons for volunteering such as learning on-the-job, getting
work experience, and improving their social life.
     All volunteers bring joy to the people they help in so many ways. They might read books to the
blind, fix up broken homes, find ways to get water for villages, Could you be a volunteer? What kind
of volunteer work could you do? There is someone in the world who needs you.

A. a city
B. an organization
C. a volunteer

In today’s world many people seem to be hungry for money. Some of them even lose their lives for it. Money does have its most useful effect(影響) on the poor, but once a person has a rich life, a lot more money doesn’t mean more happiness.
