七、阅读短文,回答问题
What do you usually do when you are free? You might spend your time playing computer games or hanging out with your friends. But what about volunteer work?
Volunteer work means choosing to do an unpaid activity to help others that you have no relations with. Through volunteer work, young people can learn new skills. Also, it can make them care more about others. Besides, a study shows that teenagers who volunteer seem to do better in school. That's because volunteer work can help reduce their stress. As we can see, it is good for young people in many ways.
Nowadays, more and more people sign up for volunteer work in China. A recent study in Shanxi found that the number of volunteers there kept growing from 2021 to 2024. Among all the volunteer services, the top four most popular volunteer activities are environment cleaning, caring service, society regulation, and culture and education.
