I searched on my computer and found a website where I could volunteer on a farm in France.‎ My time working on a farm was a new experience for me. It was basically a free holiday as food and accommodation were provided. However，it was not your typical holiday as I had to look after fifteen horses and sleep at the top of a tower in a castle！I was an awful farmer but it did not matter because I made some great friends.‎ However，you do not need to go abroad to volunteer. I have had plenty of adventures at home as volunteering can become a hobby. For example，I love singing so I had a good laugh waving my arms in an attempt to conduct my local choir（唱诗班）. I did slowly improve and it felt great to conduct the choir in a concert. At university，I organized a concert for charity with my friends. It was really fun finding bands and raising money for a cause we believe in.‎ It is true that you feel good volunteering but there are also other advantages. I once volunteered as a server at a charity sports event where the organizers gave me cupcakes to thank me for my services. I also volunteered in a charity shop so I found loads of nice cheap clothes to update my wardrobe(衣柜)．‎ While this is all fun，my favorite aspect of volunteering is creating and sharing stories.

B．Anxious. C．Cautious. D．Grateful.‎ C Nowadays，340 million people speak it everyday．One billion people are learning it and it is said that by 2050, half of the world's population will be using it．What are we talking about? That global language-English．‎ The English language started in Britain in the 5th century．It is a mixed language．It was built up when German.， Scandinavian and French invaders settled in England and created a common language for communication．‎ Today it is the official language of the UK, the USA, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, South Africa and Ireland as well as many islands in the Caribbean．Many other countries and regions use it for politics and business, for example，India．Pakistan，Nigeria and the Philippines．English is also one of the official languages of Hong Kong．‎ But global advertising and pop music mean that in most countries, you will see or hear some English．Thanks to McDonalds, we all know about "burgers"．"fries "and "milkshakes"．Songs by Madonna，Britney Spears and Celine Dion are in English．We can sing along, even if we do not understand what we are singing!‎ English is a messy （杂乱的） language．Every year, dictionaries include new words that talk about popular culture, for example, computer-related words such as "blogging", "download "and "chatroom"．Also included are words that teenagers use．Who does not know "cool", "OK "and "hello"?‎ Other languages also influence English．Many English words come from French．Words like ‎ ‎"café" and expressions like "c'est la vie"（that is life）are all part of the English language．On the other hand, the French language includes English words like "le weekend "and "le camping"．German words are also part of English．Words like "kindergarten" come from the German language．‎ Recently British people have become interested in "yoga"．But the word comes from an ancient Hindu language in India．‎ ‎28．The English language has a history of_______.‎ A．over 2000years B．over 500years ‎ C．over 1500years D．over 1000years ‎29．Which of the following statements is true about the language of English?‎ A．It has been changing all the time．‎ B．It has borrowed words from all the other languages．‎ C．French words are used by the English because dictionaries have French words．‎ D．Singers and film stars have the greatest influence on language．‎ ‎30．How many people in the world are using English now?‎ A． One billion people ‎ B. 340million C. almost all the people in the world．‎ D． not mentioned above， but the number is growing rapidly．‎ ‎31．Many countries and regions use it for politics and business except_________.‎ A．the USA ‎ B．Nigeria ‎ C．the Philippines ‎ D．Norway．‎ D Sports can help you keep fit and get in touch with nature. However, whether you are on the mountains, in the waves, or on the grassland, you should be aware that your sport of choice might have great influence on the environment.‎ Some sports are resource-hungry. Golf, as you may know, eats up not only large areas of countryside, but also tons of water. Besides, all sorts of chemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses(球场) in good condition. This causes major environmental effects. For example, in the dry regions of Portugal and Spain, golf is often held responsible for serious water shortage in some local areas.‎ There are many environment－friendly sports. Power walking is one of them that you could take up today. You don't need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes; and you don't have to worry about resources and your purse. Simple and free, power walking can also keep you fit. If you walk regularly, it will be good for your heart and bones. Experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious, sleep well and have better weight control.‎ Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener by using environment－friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials. But the final goal should be “green gyms”. They are better replacements(代替物) for traditional health clubs and modern sports centers. Members of green gyms play sports outdoors, in the countryside or other open spaces. There is no special requirement for you to start your membership. And best of all, it's free.‎ ‎32.
