Volunteering in your community gives you a chance to give back. You' ll feel proud that you are volunteering your time, and a local organization will benefit, too. There are some tips(建议) you can follow to help you do your volunteer jobs well. You should choose a volunteer job first and pay attention to the volunteer job you feel strongly about. When you decide to volunteer, you shouldn't accept the first volunteer chance you come across easily, because you' re likely to be happier and volunteer longer at an organization that supports a job you care about. So you may need to find a volunteer job that makes full use of your abilities or skills. Then, treat the volunteer job like a real job or your study task. That means being serious. Spend some time preparing for the interview, much as you would prepare for a job interview. During your volunteering, you should take responsibility (责任) for everything you do instead of giving up. You may even complete any needed training to help you volunteer well, such as learning some useful skills to help others. Being active and creative is also necessary. Both of the two traits(特质) will help you be great volunteers.

Imagine walking around a fashion store. You see a beautiful leather bag and want {#blank#}1{#/blank#} it. But in fact, it's made from recycled fruit and food waste. Would you still buy it?
Song Youyang, a 30-year-old material designer, works on developing products. She studied material design at a university in Germany and now lives in China. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} she was designing some new products, she couldn't find any suitable biomaterials (生物材料) to work with. So, she and her team decided to develop {#blank#}3{#/blank#} own new material from fruit waste.
The resulting material {#blank#}4{#/blank#} a lot like leather. It keeps the fruits' texture (质地), sense of touch and nice smell. Song and her team have used this new material to make fashion {#blank#}5{#/blank#}, such as bags, lamps and so on.
The designer thought these products would be {#blank#}6{#/blank#}. But in fact, not many customers have bought them. "Many people have their old ideas about biomaterials," said Song. "They think these materials are too expensive or of {#blank#}7{#/blank#} quality." As a result, it's quite difficult for these materials to become {#blank#}8{#/blank#} used. But Song still believes biomaterials will shape the {#blank#}9{#/blank#}. She and her team will {#blank#}10{#/blank#} working on new types of "green" materials and products.
Besides Song's team, many other fashion companies are {#blank#}11{#/blank#} working towards the same goal. They are showing us that fashion can be environmentally friendly.
Project- based learning (项目化学习) is learning while doing. It gives learners the chance to get a deeper understanding of a topic. During the learning, learners solve problems by using real- world examples and challenges. Project- based learning is becoming widely used in schools. Students work on a project over a period of time— from a week to a term. At the end of the project, they show their knowledge and skills by creating a product for people. Let's take the example of Sandra.
Sandra is an eleven- year- old student in Sunshine Primary School. She wanted to know more about Greek mythology (希腊神话). Well, how did she make it?

From the example of Sandra, we can see that project- based learning allows a student to learn about a topic and then create a project based on his or her talents and skills. Not everyone is a great test taker, but everyone is good at something. Through project work, students can not only learn deeply about a topic, but also have fun learning. So if you' re interested in something, why not start with project- based learning?
