21、National Volunteer Week started in 1974 and is held every April. It is a time to thank volunteers for what they did in the past for the people in need. It is also a perfect chance to encourage (鼓励) others to take their first step toward becoming a volunteer. Making the decision to take the first step can be the biggest problem, because they often wonder if they will be able to do it well. Some people are afraid of not knowing anyone else in the group, others don’t have enough time to take part in it.

The following tips can help if you have some of these worries.

★ Start out slowly, and don’t push yourself too hard. Even a few hours a month can make a big difference to someone’s life.

★ Choose an organization with the same interests and common values (价值观).

★ Take part in a training meeting for new volunteers so that you will be able to do the job well.

★ Work with a veteran volunteer. He volunteered a lot, he can tell you a lot about the volunteer work and help you get used to it quickly.

★ Invite a friend or family member to serve. It is a good experience to volunteer with them.

★ Finally, it is most important to enjoy the volunteer experience and to remember that not all volunteer experiences are perfect. If one experience doesn’t work, don’t give up and you’ll surely find the right chance.

22、Conor Grennan was unwilling to be a volunteer. The 29-year-old American was not sure if he had the skills or a strong feeling for it.

However, he went to work at an orphanage (孤儿院) in Nepal. His first thought was to make people impressed.

“I thought that if I volunteered just once, I could retell the story over and over,” Grennan said in the Huffington Post.

However, his three-month stay in the orphanage turned into an unusual experience. It was in 2018 and Grennan had given up his job to begin a year’s long around-the-world trip. His first three months were spent in Nepal.

When he arrived in the village, he knew nothing about the children or the local culture. When he opened the gate of the Little Princes Children’s Home, he was faced by the excited children.

The young American ended up caring for 18 children. He later discovered that they were trafficked (被拐卖的) children. So he walked through the mountains with great difficulty to find the kids’ families. “I started walking with photos of the kids,” he told the Reuter’s reporter. “I would show up in villages and show photographs around. I went with 24 photos, and I found 24 families.”

At the same time, he put his heart into Nepalese culture.

Grennan said, “Volunteering is the single best way to see how the rest of the world lives.”

He also encouraged others to do what he had done. He believes that volunteering needs only making decisions to show up.

Grennan’s fight against child-trafficking has changed him. His book, Little Prince, came out last week.

23、When I was a kid, I got interested in astronomy (天文学). I often watched northern lights in my hometown in Lapland. I used to wonder how big the universe might be and what are “behind” the stars. But as I grew up and finally went to college, I hardly had any time to develop my hobby because of too much homework. It was in 2009 that I rediscovered astronomy. I found an astronomy magazine in a library and immediately I got interested in astronomy again.

When I start reading astronomy books and magazines, I start finding out how many interesting things there are outside the planet. I realize that the information I am reading, hearing and watching opens a door to a huge world of interesting things.

However, I do not have much time for my hobbies. Many times I would like to observe an object in the night sky, but I am working or I have to look after my kids. So I share my hobbies with my kids. I encourage them to observe the stars together with me. I read kids’ astronomy books for them and tell them about the moon, stars, the sun and many other interesting things. We all find it interesting at the same time.

I enjoy astronomy as a hobby and I hope other parents like me can read books and magazines about it. Just imagine that you and your family sitting together watching the stars and talking in the yard on a summer night! How cool it will be!

B．she didn’t like it any more

C．her kids didn’t like it

A．the writer was married when she took her hobby for the second time

B．the writer has written many articles about astronomy since 2009

C．the writer has a lot of time for her hobbies

D．the writer’s children are not interested in astronomy at all

【4】What does the underlined word mean?

A．发现

B．重新发现

C．再次喜欢

D．探索

【5】What would be the best title of the passage?

A．It is hard to keep a good hobby.

B．My life-long hobby—Astronomy.

C．Encourage your kids to love astronomy.
