Li Daiyu and Liu Qian were on a trip to Canada to visit their cousins on the Atlantic coast. Rather than taking the plane all the way, they took the train from west to east crossing by Canada. The thought that they could go across whole continent was exciting.
Canada is the second large country in the world. People say Vancouver is Canada’s most beautiful city surrounding by mountains and the Pacific Ocean. On the northern coast of Vancouver, it is so wet there that the trees are extremely tall, some measured over 90 meters.
That afternoon aboard the train, the cousins settled down in their seat. They manage to catch sight of some mountain goats or even a grizzly bear. They had learned where most Canadians live within 320 kilometers of the USA border and the population is only slightly over thirty million.

Volunteering is a great way to support an organization and make a difference in your community. It can also be an opportunity to meet new people and learn new skills. 1. And what should we plan for? Here’s a guide for beginners.

Do you want to help the world, or your community? Do you want to build your own skills, make new friends, and learn? Do you love what you do?

If you feel strongly about literacy (读写), for instance, volunteer at your local library or find out if there is an organization of volunteer tutors in your area. There are organizations doing all sorts of work. 3.
Step 3: Start small.
If you already have a busy school life, volunteer your time for an hour or two a week, or perhaps one day a month..4. Then, if you find you enjoy the work and have more time to do it, take on more time by time.
Step 4: Get training.
If there is a training course, attend it. If not, talk to the group leaders and other volunteers about their experiences. 5.
Step 5: Try not to give up.
Volunteer work sometimes involves unpleasant tasks, difficult fellow workers, busy days, or bad management. If you find your work difficult, however, try to work through it before you decide to quit.
