امتحان انجليزي شهر ثاني - صف تاسع ف2
Read the text then choose the correct answer.
Have you ever worked for nothing? I don’t mean doing the dishes or studying. I mean, doing things you don’t have to do without getting paid. If you have, you’re not the only one. Volunteer work is more popular today than it’s ever been before. A lot of people do it. In the US, about 65 million citizens, that’s over 25 percent of the population, do billions of hours of volunteer work every year: an average of about three hours per person per week. But why do people do it? Why do they work for free?
One reason is because they really care about something and want to work for an association that supports it. It could be any organization. For example, many volunteer work with organizations to protect the environment. They spend their weekends planting trees, they organize talks to raise awareness about saving endangered animals or they set up websites for groups that encourage people to use bikes not cars.
Another reason people do unpaid work is to help others. They volunteer to make their communities better: they spend time with sick children in hospitals; they serve meals to the homeless; or they water the plants in neighborhood gardens. Volunteers also help people overseas.
