C Here are some ideas for you on how to help others through volunteering.(1) _ When people get older, it becomes harder to do many things, from walking to the store to doing the housework. Old people living alone can also feel lonely. As a volunteer, you can do a lot to help the old in your neighborhood. You could visit them and help them with their housework. (2) _ Many people with disabilities need help. You could volunteer to read books to the blind or deliver (递送) something for people who cant get around too well.(3) _ There are lots of volunteer jobs to do in hospitals and health care centers. As a volunteer, you can make beds, deliver flowers and gifts, help serve meals, and do lots of other important jobs.(4) _ Some families dont have enough money to buy food and clothes for their kids. Some people dont have place to live at all. To help these people as a volunteer, you can give clothes, food or money to, or raise money for, a charity (慈善机构).(5) _ Sometimes people need more help when the holidays come. Holidays are happy, but for people who are alone or unlucky, they can be a lonely, hard time.
