With the help of experienced hospital helpers，patients can spend less time finishing medical examinations(健康检查).And thanks to hospital helpers，patients feel warm and relaxed.

In these years，there are more and more hospital helpers in big cities like Beijing，Shanghai and Guangzhou.The number of old people is growing fast in these cities.Many of them don't know how to get appointments with doctors online.And they often get lost in big hospitals when they go there.Also，their children may live far from them and can't go to the hospital with them.So these old people have the need for hospital helpers.In fact，many young people also use helper service.And they're usually more open and trusting.
With the help of experienced hospital helpers，patients can spend less time finishing medical examinations(健康检查).And thanks to hospital helpers，patients feel warm and relaxed.
However，experts say hospital helpers still need to improve their service，so people can trust them much more.Hospital helpers should be friendlier and more careful.They also need to have necessary medical knowledge.

Yes，I_do.Because_I_can_help_others_and_make_them_feel_warm_and_less_worried_in_hospital./No，I_don't.Because_I_don't_have_enough_medical_knowledge_and_be_nervous_when_facing_patients.(开放性题目，言之有理即可)

Ⅲ.微写作
在很多中学，一些学生会想出各种方式来充实而有意义地度过假期。他们能在帮助他人的同时学习到新的技能。例如，一些人会去乡村地区教那些在阅读上有困难的孩子。他们在帮助这些孩子提高技能的同时，也了解到了国家不同地区的文化。
