Then I decided to follow Ben in.
Then I heard some sounds. I followed the sounds to a vegetable patch (菜地). A group of people were busy working there. I asked them who the owner of the garden was. To my surprise, they all shook their heads. They told me it was a community (社区) garden and they were all volunteers. They come to help every Sunday morning. They make sure everything is growing well in the garden. The following Sunday morning, I didn’t give Ben a walk. I had a new plan. I would go to volunteer in the community garden. I have worked in the garden for about one year. I still love coming back every Sunday morning to get my hands dirty. It is not easy work, but I feel very happy seeing everything in the garden grows well.

On the side of the road in the Hoh Xil Nature Reserve (可可西里自然保护区) in Qinghai, you might see a fat wolf (狼). It wags the tail (摇尾巴) in front of the passing cars, hoping to get a meal.
However, the wolf was skin and bones a few months ago. It’s said that the old hungry wolf had to leave other wolves because it was not good at hunting (catching animals for food). But that all changed after a passing driver gave it some snacks to eat and put a video of it online. It made the wolf very popular, and a lot of people came to the reserve to provide it with food.

People care about wild (野生的) animals, but their acts of feeding wild animals can be bad for both animals and themselves. It is hard for people to know if wild animals may hurt them or not, so it is better not to get close to wild animals.

Good morning! I’m Wang Ming. It’s my honor to give you a speech. My topic is “We should help parents do housework”. Now many students are too lazy to do housework.

I often help my parents do many chores. In the morning, I will make the bed and water flowers. In the evening, I often clean the room and take out the trash. When I see the tidy room and my parents smile with satisfaction, I feel very happy.
That’s all. Thanks for your listening!
