If you have no special plans for your holidays, why not spend your time helping others?

Don't listen to people who say the young people today often think only of themselves. It's not true at all. More and more young people in the USA volunteer to spend their school holidays working for others, and they don't do it for money. Here are some of their stories.

Alice Hamilton,17

I'm going to help the Forest Center build new hiking paths in the mountains. It's going to be great-I' ll spend the whole summer living in the tent and breathing the clean mountain air.I'm going to sleep under the stars. It will be a nice sport, and I' ll be able to do something good at the same time.

Jason Moore,18

This summer,I'm going to volunteer with Special House Program. They build good, low-cost houses and sell them to families that are not very rich. They' ll teach me what to do, so I' ll help people and also have a chance to learn how to build houses.

Trish Anderson,16

I'm going to teach kids who have trouble reading.I' ll work for a program called Reading for Life. Every day,I'm going to help kids choose and read books that they like.I want to be a teacher, and I love children and reading, so this is going to be a great experience for me.

B）根據(jù)句子意思及首字母填空，使得意思完整。

Years ago in Scotland, the Clark family had a dream. The couple worked and saved, making money for their nine children and themselves to travel to the USA. It had taken years before they saved enough money and got everything r1. for the trip.

The whole family was e2. about their new life. However, seven days before they left for the USA, the youngest son was bitten by a dog. The doctor treated the boy, but because there was a possibility of rabies（狂犬病）, they would be kept away from others for fourteen days.

The family’s dream could not come t3.. They would not be able to make the trip to America as they had planned. Watching the ship leave---without the Clark family, the father was quite angry with both his son and God for their bad luck.

Five days later, a piece of sad news spread all over Scotland---the strong and powerful ship, Titanic, had gone down, taking h4. of lives with it. The Clark family should have been on that ship, but because the son was bitten by a dog, they were left behind in Scotland.

When Mr. Clark heard the news, he thanked his son for saving the family. He thanked the God for t5. a sad thing into a good one.

Although we may not always understand, all things happen for a reason.
