Do you want to do volunteer work but don’t know how? Here are some ideas for you.
Helping your old neighborsWhen people get older, it becomes harder to do many things. Old people living alone can also feel lonely. As a volunteer, you can do a lot to help the old in your neighborhood. You can visit and talk to them. And there is also much housework you can help with.
Helping the disabledMany people with disabilities need help. Some of them even can’t live on their own. You can volunteer to read books to the blind or deliver (递送) something for people who can’t get around too well. Helping poor families
Some families don’t have enough money to buy food and clothes for their kids. Some people even have no place to live. To help these people, you can give clothes, food or money to, or raise money for, a charity (慈善机构).
Whom to help | What to do |
Old neighbors | ★Visit and talk to them ★Help them with |
★ ★Deliver something for people unable to | |
Poor families | ★Give clothes, food or money to a charity ★ |

Ten years ago, I lost my job in Hangzhou. I had to move to Shanghai to find another job. I left my wife and children behind. I missed them very much, so I went home on weekends to see them.
A few days after New Year’s Day, I drove my old car back to Hangzhou. On the way, my car broke down. It was so cold and I didn’t know what to do. Suddenly, a young man drove up.
He tried his best to help me repair the car. He soon got it started.
I was so thankful that I gave him all the money in my purse, but he refused. Then I got to know that he helped the drivers in trouble on the road every Saturday. What a kind man! How lucky I was to meet him in my life!
Many years later, I still often remember that great man.

9 . Qin Tian, 26, returned from Britain to her hometown of Xiangyang, Hubei Province, for the Spring Festival. And she stayed to help in the fight against COVID-19.
Since January 24, she has collected and given out aid with many volunteers. Between January and March, the most difficult time for medical workers, Qin wore plastic bags so that she could work 10 hours. Every morning, Qin helped distribute aid to hospitals, communities and the people in need. In the afternoon she communicated with people to get the latest information about the need. Sometimes, Qin and her father took turns driving the family car to bring aid from another city. They needed to drive for about eight hours for a round trip. It was often 11 p.m. or 4 a.m. when the aid arrived. After arriving, Qin would then help unload (卸) the aid. She took a rest in the office for four or five hours a day, with scabs (痂) on her shoulders. The scabs were from unloading the aid. Nowadays, everything returns to normal. She hands out daily necessary things to poor people. Those people thank her a lot.
Qin’s idea for volunteer work came from her mother. When she was in junior high school, her mother took her to many places to offer some help. “The experience touched me a lot. I used to complain about life, such as the strict rules from my parents, but after learning many people were still living in difficulty, I realized that what I should do is to help those in need. Doing meaningful things makes me feel valued and I would like to give lots of my time to that,” she said.
1. When did Qin Tian begin to give out aid?A.On February 26 | B.On January 24 | C.On March 24 |
A.give out | B.give up | C.clean up |
A.Because of the skin disease. | B.Because of the knife damage by mistake. | C.Because of the hard unloading work. |
A.Her friend. | B.Her mother. | C.Her father. |
A.She has quite a rich family. | B.She is a university student. | C.She is a kind and helpful girl. |
