    To start as a volunteer (志愿者), you could look for an organization (机构) or activity in your area. Some
volunteers sign up for the Peace Corps (和平部队) or other organizations and travel to faraway parts of the
world. But you already have things to do at home. So maybe you should start with a small project.
    Meng Chen is a student in Beijing. He goes to the Forbidden City almost every day. The 20-year-old
volunteers there. He tells visitors about the clocks in the clock gallery (钟表馆).
    Meng is one of around 300 volunteer tour guides in the Forbidden City. One-third of them are university
students. They hang around the palace like other visitors, but with red "volunteer" cards on their clothes.
    Meng said he loves spending time in the buildings where 25 emperors (皇帝) spent their whole lives.
"Every brick has a story to tell," he said.
    But volunteer work is more than fun. Meng has to study for the job. It took him about three months to
remember every detail (细节) of the 176 clocks in the clock gallery.
    And it can be frustrating. (让人泄气的) Often, tourists turn down volunteering guides. "Too many people are
in a rush to finish sightseeing. They don't have time to listen to us," said Shi Hui. He is a university student who
volunteers there.On his first day, Shi walked around for three hours until he found a man in his 50s who was
happy to listen to him.
    "It's always fun to have listeners who are interested in your talk," Shi said.
