Teen volunteer opportunities are the best way to learn the values of responsibility and enhance problem-solving
skills. Here are a few volunteer opportunities for you to take up.
Care for pets
Animal shelters and homeless shelters are the best places for animal lovers. A typical day volunteering at an
animal shelter would involve helping with the adoption process, feeding animals and cleaning up after animals.
Participate in a beach cleanup
Teens can associate with a local environmental organization for a beach preservation. This is a great way to learn
about ecology and contribute to its improvement in a hands-on manner. The opportunity involves outdoor activities
and is a good platform to connect with green advocates.
Volunteer at a summer camp
A job as a ‘Counselor-in-Training’ is a great fit for teens. It teaches them organization skills by training under
experts. Teenagers can learn communication skills and benefit from the real-time feedback from children and parents.
It is also an excellent opportunity to learn outdoor support skills, such as CPR and first aid.
Volunteer at a local hospital
Local hospitals are always on the lookout for a helping hand. Whether it’s chatting with residents, greeting
visitors or transporting patients to the cafeteria, a little help goes a long way! A few hospitals may have an age limit
and require volunteers to get basic training and commit their time each week.

As a child, John always wondered how the human body worked and how he could keep it healthy. His interest in
medicine grew stronger when he volunteered at a children’s hospital during high school. The never-give-up spirit of
young patients battling against various illnesses massively affected him. Initially, he chose nursing in college,
believing it would lead him to work closely with children. But after his first half year, he recognized nursing wasn’t fit
for him.
Switching to biology helped him discover his passion for learning about the complexities of human body and
using that knowledge to help children. Although the thought of the lengthy education and residency required for
pediatrics () made him hesitant, a heart-to-heart conversation with his brother changed his mind. His brother
convinced John that his passion should motivate him rather than scare him. It was then that John decided to become a
pediatrician because of the simple fact that he would work with children every day, and would make a positive impact
on their lives and their families.
Pediatrics is not just about regular check-ups, it also includes making sick kids feel better and helping them heal.
This brings so much joy to John’s heart. To him, he is not only a doctor but also a teacher, offering a safe space for the
little ones to open up and share their fears or concerns. Plus, he really enjoys being a friendly and easy-to-talk-to
person in their lives.
Being a pediatrician gives John the rewarding experience of helping and interacting with children daily and
making those little ones’ tough times easier. Also, the changing world of healthcare means he’ll always be learning
new things and facing exciting challenges. With his future plans, he wants to get into the field of being a physician
assistant—a stepping stone that keeps him involved in pediatric care while still engaged in direct interaction with
young patients. It allows him to do lots of the same things as a pediatrician, as well as helps him improve skills that
are vital for making kids healthier.
24. What can we learn about John from the first paragraph?
A. He began to have an interest in medicine during high school.
B. He decided to work on nursing after graduation from college.
C. He got inspired by young patients when volunteering at a hospital.
D. He was curious about how the doctors work to keep people healthy.
25. Why did John choose the career as a pediatrician?
A. To learn about the complexities of human body.
B. To bring about improvements in children’s lives.
C. To get rewarding experience of helping children.
D. To face the challenges making him hesitant and scared.
26. Which of the following best describes John’s feeling towards being a pediatrician?
A. Excited but tired. B. Worthy but stressful.
C. Proud and delighted. D. Concerned and moved.
27. What’s the text mainly about?
A. John’s journey of pursuing a career in pediatrics.
B. John’s challenges and rewards as a pediatrician.
C. A comparison between pediatricians and nurses.
D. The importance of improving the health of children.

A new trend has popped up in China with many young people abandoning brand ( 品 牌 ) names to create
makeshift handbags out of things like reusable grocery bags and other materials. One example is the Shenzhen bag,
which includes canvas (帆布) bags, paper bags, milk tea packages that people carry around in Guangdong Province.
Makeshift handbags like the “Shenzhen bag” are also common among young people in big cities like Beijing,
Shanghai, and Hangzhou. People find the bags practical, wearable and fashionable, and they can be carried on the
shoulder or the back. This emerging trend reveals a new attitude to consumption as young people in China begin to
pursue a simple and shared life, with consumers no longer blindly pursuing brand names as a status ( ) symbol,
but advocating a simple and low-carbon lifestyle. In addition to the handbags, and regardless of their monthly
incomes, many young people are living more casually, in line with a “good enough mentality”. Loose T-shirts, Crocs,
and canvas bags are basically standard mode.
“Consumers today are becoming more mature and rational. They are pursuing smarter consumption through
careful consideration and calculation to find the cheapest; most practical, cost-effective way of shopping,” says. Wang
Ning, a sociology professor at Nanjing’s Southeast University.
Economists believe that China’s Generation Z no longer blindly pursues brands and luxury goods or buys things
for brand name and status. Instead, they pay more attention to their actual needs, quality, and experience of buying,
and prefer sharing and secondhand purchases. They also advocate environmental protection and sustainable
consumption.
Price-aware Chinese consumers have also begun to place a greater emphasis on their inner selves. Driven by
rational consumption, many young people no longer save to buy a brand-name bag, but for self-improvement.
The new handbag trend has also created business opportunities. Reusing packaging used for food brands as
handbags results in mobile advertising for the associated brands, and the phenomenon of the “Shenzhen Bag” has also
benefited paper bag companies.
28. What is the feature of “Shenzhen bag”?
A. A popular luxury brand of handbag.
B. A makeshift handbag symbolizing status.
C. A traditional handbag designed for specific people.
D. A temporary handbag that was once for another use.
29. Which is closest in meaning to the underlined word “rational” in paragraph 3?
