（注意：每題答案不超過10個單詞）

[1]Do you want to work with people or animals or machines or tools? Do you want to work indoors or outdoors, directly serve people in need or serve people behind the scenes? These are the typical questions that a volunteer service agency would ask.

[2]Every year, thousands of people in the west offer volunteer services. Volunteering greatly strengthens the community partly because it helps the old, the young, the weak, the sick, the disabled and the injured overcome difficulties.

[3]Volunteers usually help in many different ways. They may give people advice, offer friendship to the young, drive the elderly to church, warn kids against drugs, work as an assistant in a school or a nursing home, raise funds, plant trees, help out in local libraries and do many other things.

[4]Volunteering can be a few hours a week or a few hours a month, time during the day, evenings or weekends, either part time or full time. Anybody who likes to serve people in need can become a volunteer.

[5]The art of volunteering can be a process of both giving and receiving. Volunteering allows volunteers to meet new people and make new friends and mix with people from all walks of life. Volunteering is an excellent way to experiment, practice and try out new techniques and skills. It is much more effective to practice a skill than to read about or study it in a classroom. Volunteering is a great way to develop good teamwork skills, discover your individual talents and explore career choices. Being a volunteer takes individuals on a wonderful journey and helps them learn many important things beyond their school learning.

【解析】

試題分析：任何人只要想幫助需要幫助的人都可以成為志愿者。在任何方面都可以，時(shí)間也不受限制。志愿者在幫助他人的同時(shí)，自己也學(xué)會了很多的知識技能。

1.本文一開始就提出兩個問題引出本文的話題，志愿者服務(wù)機(jī)構(gòu)常問的問題。所以回答B(yǎng)y raising / putting forward questions.

2.在教室里或者書本上讀一種技巧遠(yuǎn)不如在做志愿者的工作中實(shí)踐一種技能更高效。前面的名詞是skill ，所以這里的it應(yīng)該是指A skill。

3.文章第五段提到做志愿者在幫助他人的同時(shí)，自己也學(xué)會了很多的知識技能，如團(tuán)隊(duì)合作，發(fā)現(xiàn)自己的特長等。所以做志愿者是不僅給予而且收獲。所以回答B(yǎng)ecause a volunteer can not only offer help but also learn knowledge and skills.

4.根據(jù)Anybody who likes to serve people in need can become a volunteer.可知答案是Anybody who likes to serve people in need can become a volunteer. 意為：任何人只要想幫助需要幫助的人都可以成為志愿者。

5.根據(jù)全文內(nèi)容，尤其是第二段可知，本文的主題的西方的志愿者服務(wù)的情況。所以最佳題目是Volunteer Service in the West。

考點(diǎn)：任務(wù)性閱讀。
