As a volunteer, you're making a meaningful contribution, working side-by-side with local people and sharing in the goals of a community that warmly welcomes you. You're experiencing another culture like never before and really getting to know its people. You'll gain a better understanding of the culture and yourself. There are a huge number of volunteering programs that offer different focuses. You may participate in a conservation project to help protect local environment or endangered wildlife, an educational project helping women or the disadvantaged, or a community project helping build essential facilities (基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施) for a village or town.
These experiences will be hugely rewarding and also challenging, and will allow you to show what you really can achieve. Expect a culture shock as this is a grass-roots type of adventure, as you will be placed in remote areas with no phones, no television and sometimes no flushing toilet! What you will learn is the beauty of human nature, the power of team work and the difference you can make to the global community. You will also improve your personal growth. Increasing your social awareness, gaining self-confidence, building a sense of independence, discovering your strengths and talents, developing skills, expanding your social circle and developing a job finding network are just some of the potential benefits that will result from your volunteering experiences. You will get as much out of volunteering as you put into it—and quite often, you will get a whole lot more.

Tips for Staying Sharp
It's not abnormal to feel out of it from time to time or perhaps you're feeling a bit sluggish(遲鈍的)when it comes to remembering things. If you're worried about your forgetfulness, try out these five tips to stay sharp.

Ensure enough sleep
Be sure to get the necessary amount of sleep that your body needs to function on a daily basis.It also helps your body build up an energy reserve so you can improve your ability to focus and avoid distractions.
Socialize more

【題目】Sending your child to piano or violin lessons in an attempt to improve their academic achievement is a waste of money, according to scientists. 1 research has shown that youngsters who take music lessons are more likely to be top of their class, Professor Glenn Smith claims this link is 2(mislead).

“Music may change you a bit, but it’s also the case that different children take music lessons,” said Professor Smith of the University of Toronto, 3 added that parents’ education had most influence on musicality.

“Children who take music lessons come from families with incomes 4 (high) than average. They come from families with more 5(educate) parents, they also do more extra-curricular activities, they are more likely to learn 6 instrument, and they do better at school.”

“We 7(motivate) by the fact that kids who take music lessons are particularly good students. In school they actually do better than you would predict from their IQ. So 8(obvious) something else is going on. We thought that 9(person) might be the thing.” Professor Smith explained, “Clearly studying music changes the brain, but so does any learning.

【題目】Education is not an end, but a means to an end. In other words, we do not educate children only for the purpose of educating them. Our purpose is to fit them for life.

In some modern countries it has for some time been fashionable to think that by free education for all—whether rich or poor, clever or stupid—one can solve all the problems of society and build a perfect nation. But we can already see that free education for all is not enough; we find in such countries a far larger number of people with university degrees refuse to do what they think to be "low" work, and, in fact, work with hands is thought to be dirty and shameful in such countries. But we have only to think a moment to understand that the work of a completely uneducated farmer is far more important than that of a professor. We can live without education, but we die if we have no food. If no one cleaned our streets and took the rubbish away from our houses, we should get terrible diseases in our towns.

In fact, when we say that all of us must be educated to fit us for life, it means that we must be educated in such a way that, firstly, each of us can do whatever work suited to his brains and ability and, secondly,that we can realize that all jobs are necessary to society, and that is very bad to be ashamed of one's work. Only such a type of education can be considered valuable to society.

1According to the passage, the purpose of education is _____.

A. to build a perfect world

B. to choose a system of education

C. to let everyone receive education fit for him

D. to prepare children mainly for their future work

2Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A. It's hard for university graduates to find jobs.

B. No one would like to do work with hands.

C. Education is not enough to build a perfect nation.

D. University graduates are ashamed of their work.

3In the writer's opinion, _____.

A. all the social problems can't be solved by education

B. free education for all probably leads to a perfect world

C. free education won't help to solve social problems

D. education can settle all of the world's problems
