In today's fast-paced world, no one can live alone—we all need help sometimes, and we all can help others. Psychologists have studied "helping behaviour" for years and found a key fact: It brings two aspects of benefits, for both receivers and givers.
For receivers, a simple kind act brightens their hard days. A student falling behind in maths can catch up with a classmate's note-sharing and regain confidence. An elderly person struggling with groceries can finish shopping easily with a neighbour's help, saving time and trouble. For givers, the rewards are great too. Helping others makes their brains produce "endorphins", or "happy chemicals", which reduce stress, ease tiredness, and fill them with deep satisfaction—that's why they feel warmth after doing kind deeds.
But help properly. First, ask before acting. Some people value independence and dislike uninvited help—an elderly person might want to carry bags to stay active. Second, don't wait for big chances. Small daily acts matter: hold doors for those with full hands, smile at sad strangers, or listen to upset friends. These tiny gestures add up, making society warmer and better.
9. Which of the following is the benefit of "helping behaviour" for givers?
A. They can get more money.
B. Their brains produce "happy chemicals".
C. They can solve their own problems.
D. They can get good grades.
10. Which is a proper way to help?
A. Help without asking.
B. Only do big acts.
C. Ask before helping.
D. Refuse to help strangers.
11. What is an example of a small act of kindness?
A. Donating lots of money.
B. Holding a door for others.
C. Helping others without asking.
D. Giving others expensive gifts.
12. Why did the writer write this passage?
A. To tell readers to help others only when they are asked to.
B. To encourage readers to help others properly.
C. To explain why people live alone.
D. To teach readers how to make money.
