Welcome to the town's greatest attraction — Adam Square!

{#blank#}1{#/blank#}

    Adam Square is right in the center of the town. It's on Adam Street. It's next to the WalMart Supermarket and across from the bank. There are lots of restaurants and coffee shops there.

{#blank#}2{#/blank#}

    You can walk around the shops or you can have a cup of coffee. Try one of the popular coffee shops such as Domino. For a good meal, go to Pate's Pizzeria. It's really good and not too expensive.

{#blank#}3{#/blank#}

    Why not visit Prince's Park? It's a good place for children. Take a number 32 bus to Market Square: you can buy fruit and vegetables there. If you like historic buildings, visit the Church of St. Nicholas.

{#blank#}4{#/blank#}

    Come to Adam Square by bike. And it's OK to come here on foot. But you can't drive in Adam Square because there're no places for parking. Or if you're rich, you can take a taxi.

{#blank#}5{#/blank#}

    It's a little far from the airport. It's about 40 minutes' walk. You can get here by bike in 20 minutes. But it will only take you 10 minutes to be here in a taxi

    Here are some ideas for you on how to help others through volunteering.

    {#blank#}1{#/blank#}

    When people get older, it becomes harder to do many things, from walking to the store to doing the housework. Old people living alone can also feel lonely. As a volunteer. You can do a lot to help the old in your neighborhood. You could visit them and help them with their housework.

    {#blank#}2{#/blank#}

    Many people with disabilities need help. You could volunteer to read books to the blind or deliver(递送) something for people who can't get around too well.

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#}

    There are lots of volunteer jobs to do in hospitals and health care centers. As a volunteer, you can make beds, deliver flowers and gifts, help serve meals, and do lots of other important jobs.

    {#blank#}4{#/blank#}

    Some families don't have enough money to buy food and clothes for their kids. Some people don't have place to live at all. To help these people as a volunteer, you can give clothes, food or money t0, or raise money for, a charity(慈善机构).

    {#blank#}5{#/blank#}

    Sometimes people need more help when the holidays come. Holidays are happy, but for people who are alone or unlucky, they can be a lonely, hard time. As a volunteer, you can deliver holiday dinners to less lucky people, visit the lonely old people and serve food to the homeless.
