II. Read the passages carefully and do the following tasks


Doing some forms of voluntary work has never been more popular with British people. Over 20
million people were engaged in voluntary activities in 2013. Volunteering means giving up time to do
work of benefit to the community. It can take many forms, from working with children with learning
difficulties, or in an animal hospital, or planting trees. When London won its bid to host the 2012
Olympics, up to 70,000 volunteers were needed to help ensure that the games were a success.
Volunteers can be anyone of any age. Students and full-time workers often manage to involve in
some voluntary work. But what motivates volunteers? Some do it for a sense of selflessness while
others find they have free time available. Many mention the opportunity to get to know people they
would not normally meet.
A relatively new phenomenon is the hope of meeting new friends or even a life partner through
volunteering. In a recent British survey, 20% of 18-24 year-olds and 8% of over-65s said their love
lives had improved since they began volunteering. The same poll found that nearly half of volunteers
enjoyed improved health and fitness, a quarter lost weight - especially those working with children or
doing conservation projects - and two-thirds felt less stressed. So, it seems volunteering may improve
your life, and you may even find the person of your dreams.
