A man was walking along the street when he saw a woman carrying a large box.It was half in and half out of her car.So the man went up and said,“The box looks very heavy.Let me give you a hand.”
“That's very kind of you,”the woman said,“I'm having a lot of trouble with it.Maybe it sticks(卡住)in the car door.”
“Together we'll soon move it,”the man said.“I'll get in and take the other end.”And he got in the car.
“Right,”the man said.“I'm ready,”and he began to push the box hard.
For several minutes, the man and the woman tried to move the box.Soon they felt very tired.
They rested for a moment.Then the woman said,“Let's try again.One, two, three!”They went on moving the box.
At last, when they were exhausted, the man said,“I'm sorry, but I don't think there's any way to get it out of your car.”
“Get it out?”the woman cried.“I'm trying to get it in!You know?”

The underlined word“exhausted”means“________”in Chinese.
Many people would like to help other people in their spare time(业余时间) . Then they join a non-profit organization(非盈利性组织) to be a volunteer. The organization has volunteer jobs for people of all ages. Anyone, from twelve year old children to people in their 80s, can become a volunteer. The volunteers help people in many ways. They help with taking care of children in schools when their parents are working. They also look after their children in hospitals while their parents see a doctor. Animal lovers help look after those dogs and cats without homes. “As(作为) a volunteer, I don’t want to get anything. Seeing the children’s happy faces , I am happy, too.” says Carlos Domingo, an old woman of 62.“I often help old people learn how to use computers.” says another volunteer at the age of 18.I think if everyone helps out a bit like the volunteers, we’ll have a better world(世界) to live in.
