Last month, our school organized a volunteer activity to help at a local orphanage (孤儿院). I was excited to take part in it because I had never volunteered there before.
When we arrived at the orphanage, the children were very happy to see us. We were divided into different groups. My group was responsible for teaching the children English and playing games with them. At first, the children were a little shy, but soon they became active and started to talk with us.
I taught them some simple English words and songs. We also played hide-and-seek and drawing games. The children were very creative and they drew many beautiful pictures for us. During the activity, we learned about the children’s stories. Some of them lost their parents, but they were still optimistic and happy.
Before we left, we gave the children some books and toys as gifts. They thanked us with big smiles. I felt very touched and happy that day. I realized that volunteering is not only about helping others, but also about learning to cherish what we have.
After the activity, I joined the school volunteer club. I plan to go to the orphanage every month. I hope to bring more happiness to the children and make more friends there.

Ethan Hill, now aged 16, started helping homeless people when he was 6. Over time, his organisation—Ethan’s Heart has grown. It allows him to open a free mobile store and give out more than 5,000 care bags.
His organisation began when Ethan noticed a homeless man on his way to school each day, and he felt he had to do something to help. It was going to snow, and he was worried about the man. Ethan had received $100 on Christmas that year. He bought some boxes and filled them with food, drinks, hats, a tent and other necessary things. Then he gave the boxes to the homeless.
Later, Ethan won the Gloria Barron Prize for Young Heroes and used his prize money to help others. He got a trailer and turned it into a free store. His mum and dad help with money raising and everyday tasks. They both work to make his dreams come true, and he always dreams really big!
In traditional food banks, homeless people have to take what is prepared for them and cannot choose. But Ethan’s free moving store allows them to pick exactly what they need. It creates less waste and makes them feel good for free shopping. When his trailer is not out serving the neighbourhood, it goes to schools and other places to teach people about homelessness and the needs of the homeless.
For Ethan, being young doesn’t stop him from making a difference. Instead, it gives him a fresh set of eyes to look at a problem and solve it. His story shows that even small acts can make a big difference in the world.

A．Seeing a homeless man on the way to school.
B．Advice from his parents about helping others.
C．Winning a prize for helping someone in need.

B．It lets the homeless choose what they need.
C．It provides cheaper food and drinks.
D．It stays in the same neighbourhood every day.

Do you know that taking good care of gardens can be a way of doing charity That’s what the National Garden Scheme (NGS) (国家花园计划) has been doing. The organization opens over 3,500 private(私人的) gardens in England and Wales for people to visit, and raises money through tickets, tea and cakes.
The NGS has a rich and interesting history. At a meeting in 1926, Miss Elsie Wagg came up with the idea of raising money for district (地区) nursing through the nation’s obsession (沉迷) with gardening. A year later the NGS began to work and garden owners were asked to open their gardens for “a shilling (先令) a head”. As a result, 609 gardens opened and a total of 8,191 was raised that year.
During the past century, the number of gardens grew, so the NGS was able to help more charities with a larger amount of money. Thanks to the kindness of garden owners, volunteers and visitors, it has donated a total of 70 million to nursing and health charities so far. It made a donation of 3.5 million in 2024 and about 70 pence (便士) in every 1 (1 pound=100 pence) went straight to organizations like Macmillan Cancer Support, Marie Curie, Hospice UK and The Queen’s Institute of Community Nursing.
