单选题{{B}}Section C{{/B}} Directions: In this
section, there is one passage followed by 6 statements. Go over the passage
quickly. For questions 66-71, mark T (for True) if the statement agrees with the
information given in the passage; F (for False) if the statement contradicts
with information given in the passage; NG (for Not Given) if the information is
not given in the passage.
Questions 66-71 are based on the following
passage. The idea of helping people comes naturally to
most of us. If we see a blind person getting off a bus, we watch to make sure
that he is in no danger of falling. Members of a family help one another, with
particular care for the very young and the elderly. There are
many people who have nobody near to see their need for help and often nobody to
give it even when the need is known. The old, the homeless and friendless--these
are the people for whom help may not come, because nobody sees. It may not have
occurred to you that you are in a position to help. Community service means
helping the people around you. Organizations exist which try to make sure that
someone sees when help is needed and does something about it. These
organizations depend on voluntary help to carry out a wide variety of tasks,
volunteers giving up a little of their spare time to lend a hand.
If you wish to take part in this worthwhile activity, what sort of things
would you do? Think of the people most in need of help and the ways in which
help can be given. Much of the community services is concerned with the care of
the elderly and the handicapped. Old people cannot always redecorate their
houses. Household repairs, cleaning, preparing food or taking care of the garden
may all prove difficult. Handicapped people may be young or old.
People confined to wheelchairs cannot go out unless somebody takes them. Blind
children may love swimming but they need a sighted swimmer to go with them. Some
handicapped people may be unable to go out at all and a visitor is then more
than welcome. What do you do if you want to help? Your school
may have contact with an outside organization or, indeed, run a community
service scheme itself. In many towns there is a committee called the Council of
Social Service and it will be able to tell you about voluntary activities in the
area. The Citizens' Advice Bureau and the Women's Royal Voluntary Service are
other sources of information, as is the public library. Churches, the Scouts and
other youth organizations can tell you about their activities. If you join such
a group, you will bring pleasure and hope to people who need your help.
