Unit 1 Helping those in need
Three teenagers offered to do some voluntary work during the school holidays. They wrote the following reports.
I did some voluntary work in a children’s hospital . The children there all suffer from serious illnesses. we organized a painting competition for them.
I meet a girl called Cindy .She wanted to paint a picture of the park near her home. I went there and took some photos of it. Cindy used them for her painting. Betty
There are many children without parents .I met some of these children with my mother .we taught them to tell stories .This helps them express their feelings. One child said ,”My friends don’t understand my pain.
We spend time with a girl called Vivien. Her parents died in a car accident, and she is unhappy and very lonely. She needs friendship. My mother and I will continue to visit Vivien. Mark
I want to help disabled children. They have difficulty walking or moving. I taught them to sing because music can bring them joy and peace.
I met a boy called Tim. He hurt his legs in an accident ,but he has lots of courage. We need to help children like Tim and raise their spirits . I will continue to do voluntary work in the future. Annie

我在一家儿童医院做了一些义工。那里的孩子都患有严重的疾病。我们为他们组织了一次绘画比赛。
我遇到了一个叫辛蒂的女孩，她想画一幅她家附近的公园的照片。我去那里拍了一些照片。辛蒂用它们来画画。贝蒂
有很多孩子没有父母。我和妈妈认识了一些这样的孩子。我们教他们讲故事。这帮助他们表达他们的感受。一个孩子说：“我的朋友不理解我的痛苦。
我们和一个叫费雯的女孩共度时光。她的父母死于车祸，她很不开心，很孤独。她需要友谊。我母亲和我将继续拜访费雯。作记号
我想帮助残疾儿童。他们行走或行走有困难。我教他们唱歌，因为音乐能给他们带来欢乐和和平。
我遇到了一个叫蒂姆的男孩。他在一次事故中弄伤了双腿，但他有很大的勇气。我们需要帮助像蒂姆这样的孩子，振作起来。今后我会继续做义工。安妮

Voluntary work
Unit2 Body language
Debbie and Simon are students. They both have part-time jobs at a travel company.
A Well-dressed lady entered the office. She looked at Debbie and Simon, and then walked over to Debbie. Debbie gave her a cheerful greeting.
“What’s the matter?” Mr Yang asked.
“ People always choose Debbie instead of me. I don’t understand.”
“I do. It’s the way you communicate.”
“ How can that be?” Simon asked. “I don’t get a chance to speak.”
“Communicating is more than just speaking. Your body language is important too.”
“Body language?”
“It’s the way you stand and sit. It’s your gesture s and the ex pression on your face. Your whole appearance communicates things. You don’t give people a good impression, Simon. You look down, you never smile and you don’t turn your head towards them.
“Look at Debbie. She’s holding her head up. She he always smiles and looks friendly. Her body language is making people feel welcome, so they go to her for help.”
Simon decided to improve his body language. He sat up straight and tried smiling at people. Minutes later, a beautiful girl entered. She walked over to Simon. A few moments later, she left with a smile.
Mr Yang came over at once and said, “You made a good impression on her, Simon.” “That was my sister, “ said Simon. “She wanted to remind me that that tomorrow is her birthday.”

向她打招呼。
“出什么事了？杨先生问。
“人们总是选择戴比而不是我。我不明白。” “是的。这就是你交流的方式。”
“怎么可能呢？西蒙问。“我没有发言的机会。” “交流不仅仅是说话。你的肢体语言也是很重要的。” “肢体语言？“
“这是你站立和坐下的方式。这是你的手势和你脸上的压力。你的整个外表传达了一些东西。西蒙，你没有给人留下好印象。你往下看，你从来不微笑，也不向他们转头。
“看戴比。她抬起头来。她总是微笑，看起来很友好。她的肢体语言让人们感到受欢迎，所以他们去找她帮忙。
西蒙决定改善他的肢体语言。他坐直了，试着对人们微笑。几分钟后，一个漂亮的女孩进来了。她走到西蒙跟前。过了一会儿，她笑着走了。
杨先生马上过来说：“西蒙，你给她留下了好印象。”“那是我妹妹，”西蒙说。“她想提醒我明天是她的生日。”
