helping others & volunteersVolunteer---What does the word “ volunteer” mean? In groups, discuss whether someone who helps the groups on the survey form can be called a “ volunteer.”People who help others in their community or outside their community would be called volunteers. However, they would not be called volunteers if they help their parents, other relatives or friends.Cooprerative DiscussionWhat do the volunteers usually do to help other people?A possible version : The volunteers make their greatest efforts to help others. For example, they collect money for the Hope project to help poor children afford their schooling; they go to serve old people in the community; they join the Go West Project to improve the standard of education in the school by introducing the modern teaching methods used in the east; they join “1 help1” project to visit elderly people who live alone and help with shopping, do jobs in the house, etc.Pre-readingLook at the photos on the next tow pages and, in groups , answer the question.Photos 1 to 3

The cruiser is run by solar energy, so there is no air pollution. In the daytime, the cruiser takes solar energy in through its solar panes, and stores in its solar battery. Therefore, not only can it run in the daytime, but also at night and on rainy days. The most surprising feature of the cruiser is that it drives automatically. While you are traveling, you needn’t drive the car yourself, and yet it is very safe. On the road, it can run at a speed of 120 kilometers an hour. But it can also run at a speed of 60 on the water. It is a very convenient way to travel. Photos 1 to 3 1 What was Jo's job in PNG?A teacher.2 What kind of students were in her class?Teenage boys.
