There was once an old and deep well.People got water by dropping a bucket(木桶) tied to a rope.The rope passed over a wheel just above the well.On the other side of the rope was another bucket.
A strong pull brought one bucket to the top while the other down to the water.They always passed each other on the way up and down，but never had time to speak.
At last，the rope became worn.So a new rope had to be put in its place.While this was being done，the two buckets were left standing together near the well.
“What a boring life we have！” said one bucket to the other.“I am quite tired of it.No matter how full we come up，we are always sent down empty.”
But the other bucket laughed and said，“What a funny way you have of looking at things！Don't you see that whenever we are sent down empty，we always come up full？”
Boys and girls sometimes talk like these two buckets.You may hear one of them say，“Just as we are having a good game，we are made to stop and go to work again.” “Yes，” the other will reply，“but as soon as work is over，we always get to go out and have fun again.”
There are two ways of looking at things.If you want to be happy，look at the bright side.

Snowy was a little cat. He lived with a little old lady who loved Snowy very much. Sometimes the old lady would sit in her rocking chair, rocking backwards and forwards until she fell asleep or sometimes she would play little tunes(曲子) on her piano.
One sunny day, Snowy jumped up on the window sill(窗臺). Snowy wanted to go out and play with the pretty butterflies, but the window was shut and the old lady had fallen asleep in her rocking chair.
He ran to the door but that was shut, too. He sat down near the old lady's feet and said，“Miaou？” That was his way of saying, “May I go out to play, please？” The old lady didn't hear him but stayed fast asleep.
He rubbed his soft head against the old lady's legs. Still the old lady slept. So Snowy sat down and thought hard. Then he had an idea. He would jump up on the piano and play a tune. That might wake her up. So Snowy jumped up onto the piano and was a little scared of the loud, big, deep drum sound he made as he landed.
He took another little step. It wasn't quite such a loud note(調(diào)子). Up and down the notes he walked until he reached the very high notes which sounded like lots of bells. But the old lady woke up.
“What are you doing, Snowy？” She asked but she wasn't angry. “Miaou，” said Snowy, running to the closed door. “How clever you are to wake me up by playing the piano！” said the old lady as she let Snowy out into the sunshine.

“Volunteering makes you look at the world differently. You see how little things can change a person’s life for the better, which makes everyone a better person.” Mason, a volunteer said.
National Volunteer Week started in 1974 and is held every April. It is a time to thank volunteers for their achievements. It is also a perfect opportunity (機(jī)會) to encourage others to take their first step toward becoming a volunteer. Making the decision to take the first step can be the biggest problem, because they often wonder if they will be able to meet the organization’s expectations (期望). Some people fear not knowing anyone else in the group. Not having enough time also prevents some from sharing their abilities.
The following tips can help if you have some of these worries.
★ Start out slowly, don’t add too much pressure. Even a few hours a month can make a big difference in someone’s life.
★ Choose an organization with the same interests and common values.
★ Take part in a training meeting for new volunteers, even if it is not asked.
★ Work with a veteran volunteer. He volunteered a lot, he can help you increase the confidence and completely understand the organization’s expectations.
★ Invite a friend or family member to serve. It is a good experience to volunteer with them.
★ Finally, it is most important to enjoy the volunteer experience and to remember that not all volunteer experiences are perfect. If one experience doesn’t work, don’t give up and you’ll surely find the right opportunity.
Spend some time on volunteer work and you will see great changes in people’s lives. As Mason discovered during his volunteer experience, “…little things can change a person’s life.”
1.Volunteering can help_________.
A. make a decision B. see the world clearly
