| ___________________________________________(Title) You've seen people in need on the news after a hurricane, earthquake, or other disaster. Perhaps you've walked past homeless people who are living on the streets. Or maybe you've been to an animal shelter and wished you could give every pet a home.
So what can you do to help people (or animals) who need it? The answer is — volunteer!
Volunteering means spending some of your free time helping others. You may volunteer to help other people, such as the families who lost their homes after a disaster. But you can also volunteer to protect animals, the environment, or any other cause that you care about.
___________________________________(Subtitle) Volunteering helps others, but it can also help you, too. If you're sad about something that's happened — like a hurricane or other disasters — doing something about it can be a great way to deal with your feelings.
Volunteering also lets you see your own life in new ways. Sometimes it's easy to worry about something like grades or get angry because you don't have the most expensive shoes or the newest computer games. Volunteering lets you spend some time focusing on others for a while.
Lots of people — and kids — find that they really enjoy volunteering. Volunteer experiences often put you in a different environment and make you meet people and stay in the situations that you wouldn't have met in your common life. For example, you might learn that just in some places of your town are some kids who really need winter clothes.
It feels good to be able to meet a need like that. You'll know that, thanks to you, some kids have warm coats, hats, gloves, and shoes. So whether it's winter clothes, food for the hungry, or homes for unwanted pets, doing volunteer work means one very important thing: You make a difference in the world. ● hurricane 颶風 disaster災害 shelter庇護所 environment環境 cause原因 situation情況 |
