B
Two years ago,when I was making summer plans,at first I chose Plan A—working at an animal hospital or a place that trains animals to work with the disabled. But unluckily,people needed to be at least sixteen to do such work,and I wasn't old enough. So I chose Plan B—volunteering at an animal shelter(收容所)in my city.
Working at an animal shelter wasn't what I expected. I couldn't wear my favourite T-shirt when training the dogs because the dogs liked giving me big kisses. I couldn't wear new shoes either when feeding the cats. When the cats disliked some food,they would spit(吐)it out and make my shoes dirty. However,it was still an interesting experience. Although there were many hard jobs,I had great fun playing with the animals. I loved walking around and deciding which dog I should take to the training room.
I spent all summer volunteering,and Plan B is probably the best decision I have ever made. Many people don't realize that they don't need to work at the shelter to give assistance. Shelters are often short of necessary things,so collecting money and helping out at the front desk can also be of great help!

When a person is hurt or suddenly becomes ill,people give him or her immediate care. We call it first aid. When there is a sudden situation,time is very important,so first aid plays a very important role. Immediate action is necessary when someone loses lots of blood or when breathing stopped for a short time.
Everyone should know something about how to care for a person with a sudden illness. Even a small injury can be very dangerous. And it may result in death,so everyone should know something about first aid. When first aiders face a sudden situation,they must be able to keep calm and organize other people to help.
