Jack lives in a small town in England. He always stayed in his own country for holidays. But last year he thought, “I’ve never been outside my country. All my best friends have been to China, and they all said it was nice. I’m going there this year.”
So he went to China and stayed there for a few days. One day, he went out for a walk. In England, people drive on the left, but in China they drive on the right. Jack forgot about this. While he was crossing a busy street, a car almost knocked him down. Jack stood there for a few seconds. Then he came to himself and said, “Oh, my god! Where am I?” Just at that time, an old man selling maps ran to Jack and said, “Maps of the city, sir.”

Number 77 High School is home to three very special young people: Li Huiping, Lin Pei and Zhu Ming. These three students all volunteer their time to help other people. This volunteer work takes each of them several hours a week, so it is a major commitment. Huiping loves to read, and she puts this love to good use by working in the after-school care center at her local elementary school. Here, she helps young children to read. Lin Pei loves animals and plans to study to be a veterinarian when he leaves school. He spends every Saturday morning working in an animal hospital. Zhu Ming wants to be a professional singer. He sings for groups of people at the city hospital to cheer them up. “Volunteering is great!” says Huiping. “Not only do I feel good about helping other people, but I get to spend time doing what I love to do.” Lin Pei says he has learned more about animals. Zhu Ming says he has met some wonderful people at the hospital. The three students plan to set up a student volunteer project at their school. “Don’t put it off,” says Huiping. “Become a volunteer today!”
