Ⅱ.任务型阅读
My name is Ann. I worked as a volunteer in 2013 because I wanted to do something to help others. I called some charity shops (慈善商店) to ask if they needed volunteers. Although I didn't mind where I volunteered, I was glad that one of the Sue Ryder shops said yes. Sue Ryder was a charity very close to my heart because volunteers from Sue Ryder once cared for my dad in the hospital.
Volunteering in the shop helped me know what shop work was like and I was surprised to find how much I really enjoyed doing it. I also found how important the public (公众) were. Lots of people gave us things they didn't need for the shops to sell. In this way Sue Ryder raised money to care for people with lifechanging illness. I always left the charity shop late because I knew how important the work of Sue Ryder was.
