One day, a man was walking by the corner of a street. He met a little boy holding a bird cage

in front of him. The birds were screaming in the cage, trying to fly away.
After standing for a moment, he said to the boy, “How much does your bird cost I want...”
“One fifty cents, sir,” the boy answered quickly.
“I am afraid that you are mistaken. I am not asking how much it is.” The man said, “I would
like to buy all of them. What I ask is how much you want for them.”
Hearing this, the boy happily counted the number of the birds in the cage.
“They cost five dollars.”

People usually think volunteering is just for adults. It seems hard for students
like us. But it is completely different in Canada. The government encourages(鼓励)
people of any age to volunteer and make contributions(贡献) to the whole society. So,
if students want to graduate(毕 业 ) from high school, 30 hours of volunteering is needed. If students want to get into a good university, it helps if they contribute a lot to society. Volunteering is an important point that universities will think about.
Besides, there are volunteer chances everywhere. People can find information
about how to volunteer posted in the library or on the Internet. It includes many
different jobs, such as wrapping(包装) gifts in a shopping mall, taking care of small kids or cleaning up a church. Students can choose what they want to do and register online.
I got my first volunteer job at New Westminster Museum every Sunday from
9:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. My job is to check the documents(文件) on a computer and correct mistakes. The museum is about the historically important family in New Westminster. At first, I was nervous to communicate with others. But as time passed, I became more open. During the volunteering, I not only learned how to work with other volunteers but also learned a lot of history about New Westminster.
As a volunteer, I am proud of myself. I enjoy doing my job and helping others.

and he said that she was the main reason he wanted to get better. He spent six days

each big climb he noticed his body could do new movements.
Two years later, 31-year-old Michael climbed 8,848 meters, the height of the
world’s highest mountain, by going up and down his parents’ stairs 2,783 times.
When he finished, he told a news reporter he had loved it although it sometimes was
“painful” and “boring”. He also raised ￡46,000 for charity (慈善).

① Body language is important in communication. However, the same body
language can have very different meanings in different cultures. Here are some
examples.
② Nodding your head usually means “yes”. But in Bulgaria(保 加 利 亚 ) and Greece, nodding up and down means “no”.
③ In the West, people like to look at each other when they talk. Strong eye contact(交流) is very common in Spain, Greece and Arab countries. Finns(芬兰人)
