I really love volunteering, for example, volunteering at free public schools and old people's homes. It's one of my favorite hobbies.

At my old school, I used to help my classmates. It was really funny to help with their studies. I wasn't really a top student who always got the highest grades, but I could explain to them clearly.

Now, when I am free, I often volunteer on my town's main street. Every weekend, other volunteers and I make a lot of dishes to feed everyone who passes by the street. There are always about 400～550 people. The long day makes me tired, but it also brings me great joy. The looks of joy on those people's faces would make my weary day into a good day.

From my volunteering, I learned that helping others not only makes others happy but makes myself happy, too. It creates great memories. And maybe one day, people once you helped would help you back.

Anna Brown was an artist who believed that it was important to help others. When she heard of a summer camp for children with serious illnesses, she came up with an idea. It cost money for these kids to go to the camp, so Anna decided to see what she could do to help. It was impossible for her to donate(捐赠) a lot of money, so she had to think of another way.

She wanted to take advantage of her love of art. So she started making and selling beautiful cards to raise money for these kids. Because these cards were all handmade, it would take her a long time to make a lot of them. So Anna had another idea. She started inviting friends to her house to help her make the cards. At first her friends were hesitant. Many said that they were not artistic and didn't know how to make cards. But once they saw the beautiful materials that she had in her workroom, her friends felt more comfortable doing things such as drawing and cutting in order to make a new card.

But the materials were expensive. To make money without spending money, Anna asked for and got donations of paper, glue, scissors, and other things from nearby stores. She sold her cards for three dollars each in different art markets during the year. Anna raised more than $30，000 in her 10 years' making cards.

67. What did Anna invite her friends to do?

A. Sell cards.  B. Make cards.

C. Buy materials.  D. Donate materials.

68. Where did Anna sell her handmade cards?

A. In her house.  B. In her workroom.

C. In nearby stores.  D. In art markets.

69. Which of the following can best describe Anna?

A. Kind­hearted.  B. Polite.

C. Brave.  D. Humorous.

E

Do you want to be a volunteer? Maybe you need some ideas to get you started. Here are just a few. You can pick what you really love to do.

Help kids learn and grow. Be a big brother or big sister at an after­school care center. You can help little kids to learn or play with them.

Give back during the holidays. Serve dinner to the homeless, volunteer at your local old people's home, or give out toys to kids. Your local church and temple may also need your help.

Help at a local animal shelter. Most shelters depend on volunteers to keep the cats and dogs happy and well exercised. And when you're walking dogs, you get some exercise, too.

Protect the environment. Take part in a local park clean­up day. Plant a tree in the spring. Join a group to work together to protect your local river.

Help sick people. Lots of us are close to people who have a medical problem. It can make you feel good to donate your time or money to help the people with an illness. When you cheer them up, you also feel happy.

If you have more than one thing you love, find a way to do them all. For example, if you love kids and are good at painting and dancing, visit your local children's hospital and teach them these interesting things.

70. What can a volunteer do at an animal shelter?

C. Help animals to exercise.  D. Make workers happy.

71. Which is NOT mentioned as a way to protect the environment?

Long long ago, each kind of animals lived in their special village that was the same color as themselves. They believed the world's color was the same as their color, and no animal thought there would be any difference outside their village.

But one day, a little bird came to the village of the brown elephants. He said that he saw some yellow cows in the cows' village and that all the things in that village were yellow. Of course no one believed him. So the bird asked them to go with him and visit the cows' village. When the elephants arrived, they could see that it was true. It was really a different world. Everything in that village was yellow. The yellow cows were also surprised to see the brown elephants. The two groups of animals got together and decided to go and find more colors.

They took a trip through many other villages of different colors. When all the animals were together, it started to rain. The rain mixed the animals' colors up, leaving each one with the color they have today.

This story tells us that not all the things are the same as we think. We should always be open­minded.
