The story was a true one and still moved me deeply. Thirty years ago, I got to know a ____ lady named Rose, she had no kids and lived alone. ____ I went to visit her, I always took Rose some coffee and food. One day she said she wanted to____ me to have lunch.

We walked ____ my workplace to a little restaurant on David Street. On the way, I began to worry: I knew that she had no money, but if I offered to ____ the lunch, I was afraid I would hurt her.

There were many people in the ____, and all of them were happy. Rose told me to sit and drink coffee by the window. Then she went to ____ in the kitchen. After about 20 minutes, she came out and sat with me. She just paid for one meal and we started to ____ the delicious food together. She told ____ that the restaurant let people work for a meal if they had no money, or would give them a free meal if they were not able to work.

Are you looking for something fun and would you like to help others in your free time? Then join us to be a volunteer(志愿者)! We’re a non-profit (非营利的) organization(组织). We have volunteer jobs of all ages. Anyone, from twelve-year-old children to people about seventy years old can become a volunteer.

You can help people in many ways. Schools need help with taking care of children while parents are working. Hospitals need volunteers to look after children while their parents are seeing a doctor. Animal lovers can help take care of those dogs and cats without homes. There is something for everyone.

“As a volunteer, I don’t want to get anything. Seeing the children’s happy faces, I’m happy, too.” said Carlos Domingo, an old woman of 62. “I often played computer games in my free time before. Now I help older people learn how to use computers,” said another volunteer at the age of 18.

If everyone helps out a little, we’ll have a better world to live in. Interested? What are you waiting for? Start volunteering now! Call us on 1-800-555-5756 or visit our website: www.activol.com.
