We are looking for people to work as voluntary work for the local community．
There are many ways in which you can do voluntary work．You can volunteer to go shopping for old people or help organize a recycling project．Or you can become a member of a team．It might be about providing support to someone who has lost a family member，or who can't deal with a change in their lifestyle．Or，it might be about looking after someone．Melissa has been helping the old people，"I didn't think I'd have enough time at first，but when I saw how much difference I could make to people's life，I managed to find the time to do that，"she says．
If you are interested in gardening or animals，then you might want to join in our new project to change waste gardens into places for growing fruit and vegetables，or care for local animals and wildlife．Jack is a volunteer at the Dogs and Cats Home．"I started volunteering when I was out of a job．It was a bad time for me．Then I found looking after the animals did a lot of good to me：for example，I began to feel light﹣hearted，"he says．
We also need volunteers to work at local hospital．Don't worry﹣you don't need any medical skills．Volunteer work might ask you to work with hospital staff，or spend time with parents．And there are also possibilities of being a police support volunteer．

How Americans eat is funny.They eat almost everything with fork. But how to use the fork is very important .When you have dinner with Americans ,if you hold a knife in your right hand longer than a few seconds they will think you have the bad table manners (礼貌)。
If you must use the knife ,you should take the fork in your left hand,and cut with it in your right hand.Then you put the knife down,take the fork with your right hand,and then put the food in your mouth .This is clearly funny,but it’s good manners in America.
