1、 People do volunteer work for many reasons. Let’s look at several top reasons. After each reason, there is an example. Check (打上钩) the box if the example matches (与…相一致) what you want to get from the volunteer experience:
You want to help in a place which is important to you. For example, you might choose to clean up the city parks because you want them to be better places.
You want to meet others. When I moved to the town I now live in, I volunteered at my son’s school because I wanted to meet other people with their children.
You want to learn something new. 我的儿子过去很喜欢戏剧,但是他害怕上台。After watching so many plays on stage (在舞台上)by others, he now volunteers for one theater.他想得到一些训练并且慢慢地学到舞台经验。
Which did you check? Your reason or reasons for becoming a volunteer will help guide you along your way. Maybe you didn’t check any. That is fine. There are other reasons why you want to become a volunteer. Although everyone has his or her own reason, becoming a volunteer will open a new door for us and may change our life, and you will feel like you really make a difference!

21、 It was a village in India. The people were poor. However, they were not unhappy. After all, their forefathers(祖先) had lived in the same way for centuries.
Then one day, some visitors from the city arrived. They told the villagers there were some people elsewhere who liked to eat frog's legs. However, they did not have enough frogs of their own, and so they wanted to buy frogs from other places.
This seemed like money for nothing. There were millions of frogs in the fields around, and they were no use to the villagers. All they had to do was catch them. Agreement was reached, and the children were sent into the fields to catch frogs. Every week a truck arrived to collect the catch and hand over the money. For the first time, the people were able to dream of a better future. But the dream didn't last long.
No one noticed the change at first, but it seemed to be more insects around recently. So they had to use the money they made to buy pesticides(杀虫剂)and medicines. Soon there was no money left.
The change was hardly noticed at first, but it seemed as if the crops were not doing so well. More worrying was that the children fell ill more often, and, there seemed to be more insects around lately.
Then the people realized what was happening. It was the frog. They hadn't been useless. They had been doing an important job-eating insects. Now with so many frogs killed, the insects were increasing more rapidly. They were damaging the crops and spreading(传播) diseases.
Now, the people are still poor. But in the evenings they sit in the village square and listen to sounds of insects and frogs. These sounds of the night now have a much deeper meaning.
【1】From Paragraph 1 we learn that the villagers _____.
A.worked very hard for centuries
B.dreamed of having a better life
C.were poor but somewhat content
D.lived a different life from their forefathers
【2】Why did the villagers agree to sell frogs?
A.The frogs were easy money.
B.They needed money to buy medicine.
C.They wanted to please the visitors.
D.The frogs made too much noise.
【3】What might be the cause of the children's sickness?
A.The crops didn't do well.
B.There were too many insects.
C.The visitors brought in diseases.
D.The pesticides were overused.
【4】What can we infer from the last sentence of the text?
A.Happiness comes from peaceful life in the country.
B.Health is more important than money.
C.The harmony between man and nature is important.
D.Good old days will never be forgotten.

24、
Living in a foreign country can be exciting, but it’s also a difficult experience. Today I want to share my personal experience of living abroad (在国外) with you.
Living in a foreign country, I’m able to learn another language. I came to Turkey to learn art in a college two years ago. So far, I have learnt thousands of Turkish words. And knowing a second language can be very helpful (有用的) for one’s work, especially (尤其) for those who want to work in a foreign company. What’s more, living in a foreign country helps people to get to know about a different culture, which gives them a new idea about life.
However, there are also some disadvantages (缺点) of living abroad. Firstly, not knowing the spoken language of the country can be the biggest problem. And when I live in this country far away from my hometown, I miss my family and friends from time to time. We can only talk on the Internet. They also worry about me so much.
In short, living abroad alone is not as interesting as others expect. However, it can be an important experience that makes a great difference to my life.
