12 Some volunteers read books onto tapes so that people with eye problems can hear.
Some volunteers send meals to the old or sick people. Some volunteers help visitors when they don’t know the way or when they have some other problems.
Volunteers help when a natural disaster hits a community. 13 They may help people leave the areas quickly when there is an earthquake, a tsunami or a flood. They may also help people rebuild their homes after the disasters. A community may not recover without the help of volunteers.

One day when I was working, I saw an old man come in with a little girl in a wheelchair. As I watched this girl carefully, I found that she had no arms or legs. 17 As the old man pushed the wheelchair up to me, I was busy with my work. I turned my head to the girl and gave her a wink (眨眼). When I took the money from her grandfather, I looked back at the girl. 18 I had never seen that kind of smile before. Suddenly, her handicap (生理缺陷) disappeared and all I saw was this beautiful girl. 19 She made me realize the meaning of smiles, love and warmth.

Our school set up a Voluntary Work Club last term to encourage students to help people in need. At first, only a few students joined the club, because many of them didn’t know what to do or how to start. 21 The teachers in the club gave us a lot of advice and told us that voluntary work is not as hard as we thought.
We first planned to visit the children’s hospital near our school. 22 We prepared some storybooks, toys and hand-made cards for the sick children. When we got there, we read stories to them, played games with them and taught them to draw pictures. 23 Their smiles made us feel warm and happy.
After that, we did more voluntary activities: we helped the elderly in the community clean their homes, we picked up litter in the park, and we taught English to the children from poor families. 24 Now the club has over 100 members, and more and more students want to join us.
25 It not only helps people in need, but also makes us grow into better people. We learn to care for others, work with our teammates and understand the meaning of life. We believe that kindness is the most beautiful language in the world.
A．We spent the whole afternoon with the children there.
B．As we did more and more voluntary work, more students noticed our club.
C．The club teachers talked to us and introduced different kinds of voluntary work.
D．Voluntary work has become an important part of our school life.

When it comes to communicating better, there are several key aspects.
First, 31 . This means putting away distractions, maintaining eye contact, and nodding to show you’re engaged. By doing so, you’ll not only hear the words but also grasp the underlying (潜在的) emotions.
Second, 32 . Before speaking, organize your thoughts and use simple, straightforward language. Avoid jargon or overly complex sentences that might confuse your listener.
Third, creating a friendly atmosphere is crucial in communication. 33 . Even if you disagree, don’t interrupt. Instead, acknowledge their viewpoints and share your thoughts politely.
Fourth, your body language can greatly impact how your message is received. 34 , such as standing or sitting up straight, using appropriate hand gestures, and letting your facial expressions match your words.
Finally, 35 . This shows your interest and helps avoid misunderstandings.
By following these simple guidelines, you’ll surely become a better communicator.
A．if you want to be easily understood, be clear when expressing your ideas
B．you should ask questions to clarify things that are uncertain
C．if you want to understand others better, listen actively when they are speaking
D．Keep your posture open and confident, convey the right message, and watch your body language
E．Respecting others’ opinions during the conversation is a good way
Have you ever been stuck (说不出话) for words 36 Luckily, everyone can learn, practise and improve their communication skills. What does communication mean
Communication is how people share information and connect with others. 37 When you’re having a conversation with someone, you are also expressing yourself through your tone (语气) of voice and the way you move your body. Communication skills include starting conversations, using eye contact, knowing what to talk about and taking turns to speak and listen.
38
People can share thoughts and feelings when they speak and listen in a conversation. Listening helps you discover new ideas and understand how others are feeling because you’re seeing things through someone else’s eyes. Radio presenter (主持人) Emma Barnett says that of all the ways people communicate, talking gets the message across best because this way makes it easier to understand what someone really means. A good conversation makes people understand others better and know their feelings and moods.
39
A conversation involves (包含) taking turns to talk. Some people have a lot to say; others need encouragement to speak, so make sure everyone has a chance to join in. Listen carefully to what the other person is saying and don’t be afraid to ask questions or share your opinion. Body language sends out messages about how people feel, so make sure you look at people while speaking to them. If you see them nodding and smiling, this means they’re showing interest.
40 Annalisa Barbieri, an expert, believes listening is the most important part of a conversation. “It’s about paying attention,”she says.
A．How does a conversation help us
B．What makes a good conversation
C．It isn’t just about exchanging words.
D．Knowing what to say and when to say it isn’t easy.
E．If they are turning away, it could mean they have stopped listening.
There is one language that is used in every country in the world. 41 Do you know what it is It is sign language.
42 When you wave to a friend, you are using sign language. When you smile at someone, you are saying, “I want to be friendly”, but you are not using speech. When you raise your hand in class, you are saying, “Please ask me. I think I know the correct answer.”
43 Many years ago, a Frenchman became interested in education for deaf people. He invented a finger alphabet. People can make the sign for letters and spell words with their hands. 44 Soon, there were schools for the deaf in many countries.
Today, there are special TV news programmes for deaf people. 45 At the same time, the words appear on the TV screen.
A．In these programmes, the news is told in sign language.
B．So the deaf people can read and understand the words.
C．Sign language helps deaf people a lot.
D．Sign language is useful in our daily lives.
E．You can’t hear it, but it is easy to understand.
Having good communication skills is important. They can help you speak clearly in class, during job interviews, and in everyday life. 46
Develop Good Listening Skills
47 Try your best to understand what other people are talking about and join in the conversation.
Make Eye Contact
Whether you are speaking or listening, look the person you are talking to in the eye. 48 Eye contact can show that you are paying attention and make the other person more interested in what you are saying.
Use Gestures
Use your hands and face to help express your ideas. Let your whole body join in the conversation. 49 For a larger group, make your gestures bigger so everyone can see them.

Our school opened a Traditional Art Corner last term to let students get close to Chinese cultural heritage and learn traditional craft skills. The corner is on the first floor of the art building, and it is open to all students after school every day. 76 We also prepared all kinds of simple tools and materials, such as scissors, coloured paper and dough, for students to use for free.
Many local craft masters volunteer to come to our school and teach us skills in their free time. 77 They also tell us the history and cultural meaning of each craft, which helps us understand traditional arts better. For example, a paper-cutting master once taught us how to cut a dragon pattern and told us it stands for good luck in Chinese culture.
78 At first, most of us just went there to watch the masters make artworks, but now we all like to try making them by ourselves. Some students are good at making dough figurines, and some create beautiful paper-cuts. We even set up a small shelf in the corner to show our best works.
We have gained a lot from the activities in the Traditional Art Corner. 79 We also learn to be patient and careful, because making a good traditional craft work needs attention to every small detail. More importantly, we start to love our traditional culture more and want to be the inheritors of it.
80 We will hold a craft fair in the corner next month, and we plan to invite students from other schools to visit and exchange ideas with us. We believe the Traditional Art Corner will become a more wonderful place for us to know and spread traditional Chinese arts.

Lanterns (灯笼) have been part of Chinese culture for centuries and play an important part in many celebrations. In ancient times, there were three kinds of lanterns:
Palace Lantern
81 When people made palace lanterns, fine wood was used. The palace lanterns were covered with silk or glass. Different kinds of pictures were drawn on the covers. These lanterns were not only used as lights but also as decorations.
Gauze Lantern (纱灯)
Less expensive bamboo and gauze were used to cover the lantern. We usually used red gauze to make a gauze lantern. 82 So red lanterns are always hung on important festivals such as the Lantern Festival, the Spring Festival and National Day. In some famous Chinatowns abroad, you can see red lanterns all year round. 83
Shadow -picture Lantern (走马灯)
It was usually used for amusement. 84 There were two layers (层) of covers and pictures were drawn on the inside layer. When the candle was lit, the heat caused a paper wheel inside the lantern to turn around so that moving pictures appeared on the outside cover.
Now more kinds of lanterns appear on festivals besides the traditional ones. More modern technology is used in making lanterns. 85
