五、阅读短文,完成下列任务
①"Volunteering can make a real difference to the world, and it makes you look at the world differently. You see how little things can change a person's life for better, which makes everyone a better person." Mason, a volunteer, said.
②National Volunteer Week started in 1974 and is held every April. It is a time to thank volunteers for their achievements. It is also a perfect opportunity to encourage others to take their first step towards becoming a volunteer. Making the decision to take the first step can be the biggest problem, because they often wonder if they will be able to meet the organisation's expectations. Some people fear not knowing anyone else in the group. Not having enough time also stops some from sharing their abilities. The following tips can help if you have some of these worries.
③Start out slowly, don't add too much pressure. Even a few hours a month can make a big difference in someone's life.
④Choose an organization with the same interests and common values.
⑤Take part in a training meeting for new volunteers, even if it is not asked.
⑥Work with an experienced volunteer. Someone with a lot of experience can help you increase confidence and completely understand the organisation's expectations.
⑦Invite a friend or family member to serve. It is a good experience to volunteer with them.
⑧Finally, it is most important to enjoy the volunteer experience and to remember that not all volunteer experiences are perfect. If one experience doesn't work, don't give up and you'll surely find the right opportunity.
⑨Spend some time on volunteer work and you will see great changes in people's lives. As Mason discovered during his volunteer experience, "... little things can change a person's life."
