What can you do to help people or animals in need? The answer is—to be a volunteer.

Helping yourself by helping others

Volunteering not only helps others but also helps yourself. If you're sad about something that happens, like an earthquake or a flood doing something to help others can be a great way to make you feel better.

It feels good to be able to help. Because of your help, some kids have warm hats, gloves and boots. Doing voluntary work means one very important thing—you make a difference to the world.

Getting started

School is a good place to start. You can ask a teacher what you should do to be a volunteer.

Some places want volunteers who are twelve or even older. Often, kids start volunteering by working with their parents. You might be too young to get food ready at a kitchen. But when your parents give you a helping hand, you might be able to go along.

Things to do with parents or family members

Volunteering is a great way to have fun with your family. Here are some ideas for things you can do as a family:

Clean up a park, a school or other public places.

Offer food to people without homes.

Coming up with your own ways

You can try to find your own ways to raise money. For example, you can make and sell things and donate the money to charity.

Volunteering can also help kids learn something about themselves. They will learn about what kinds of things they can do and what they are interested in.

So what are you waiting for? Make a plan to start volunteering today.

【解析】

我们能为需要帮助的人或动物做什么？答案就是做一名志愿者。本文介绍了我们能够怎样、用什么方式成为志愿者。

【1】根据“If you're sad about something that happens, like an earthquake or a flood doing something to help others can be a great way to make you feel better.”可知当一些事发生的时候，像地震或者洪水，做一些事帮助其他人是一个让你感觉很好的方法。此空为谓语动词，表示灾难“发生”，用happen表示。故答案为happen。

【2】根据“You can ask a teacher what you should do to be a volunteer.”可知在学校，你可以问老师，你应该怎么成为志愿者。此空意为“老师”，单复数均可。故答案为teacher(s)。

【3】根据“You might be too young to get food ready at a kitchen. But when your parents give you a helping hand, you might be able to go along.”可知，“你可能太小而不能在厨房准备妥当。但是当你父母帮助时，你就可能完成。”这句话表明，有了父母的帮助，你就可能开始工作。parents’后接名词，意为“帮助”，用help/support表示。故答案为help/support。

【4】根据“Offer food to people without homes.”可知你可以向无家可归的人提供食物。此空意为“提供”，并且与for构成短语，可以用provide表示。provide sth. for sb.“提供给某人某物”。故答案为provide。

【5】根据“They will learn about what kinds of things they can do and what they are interested in.”可知他们通过学习到各种各样他们能做的事和他们感兴趣的事。“what they are interested in”表示interests，“what kinds of things they can do” 则为他们的“能力”，用abilities表示。故答案为abilities。
