一、阅读理解
①Charity is important. Not only because it can change people's lives, but also because it can change the world. By giving to charities, we can help those less lucky and support causes(事业) we believe in. Whether you're looking for a way to give back or just want to learn more about the work of charities, this post is for you.
②A charity is an organisation that helps people or communities in need. A charity may raise money from common people, companies and governments. Charities usually work on certain areas such as health care, education, disaster relief, and so on.
③Charities provide services that are important to people in need: food banks provide food for hungry families; churches help people find cheap places to live in; hospitals provide free basic care for low-income patients; animal charities save homeless pets from certain death and find them new homes... The list is endless. They help improve the lives of millions of people every day.
④Charities are good for you too. Helping others is good for your health and well-being. Volunteering for charities makes you feel like you're making a difference and contributing, which in turn builds a sense of community and reduces loneliness. Volunteering for a charity can also help develop a sense of purpose, build friendships or improve social networks, and increase self-confidence.
⑤Charities don't just help people. There are also many charities that protect the environment and conserve natural resources. The Nature Conservancy, for example, is a global conservation organisation that works to preserve the lands and waters on which all life depends. The World Wildlife Fund(WWF) has been working for more than 50 years to protect endangered species and their habitats.
⑥Charities play an important role in our society. They provide vital services for millions of people every day and play an important role in our economy.
