Doing voluntary work is becoming more and more popular nowadays because it benefits the individual volunteer, people in need and our society.
When helping others, we are enriching our lives as well. First, doing voluntary work is our responsibility and duty. Second, we can enlarge our life circles so that we get more chances to learn deeper about the present situation of our society, which is very important to our future development. Last, when doing voluntary work with others, we are improving our ability to cooperate with different people and build up team spirit. As for us students, doing voluntary work is an effective way to participate in social activities. In other words, it gives us the chances to prepare to fit into the society in advance.
Through voluntary work, the living conditions of people in need are improved. For example, lots of children in remote areas don't have access to enough food and clothes, let alone education. Some people donate money and clothes while some volunteers go to these areas to teach these children, bringing them knowledge as well as the latest information of the world. In this way, these children's qualities of life are improved and they'll integrate into the society more easily and get a sense of belonging.
The more voluntary work we do, the more steady and harmonious our society will be. Volunteers spread warmth and care all over the world, strengthening union and trust among citizens. As Ban Ki-moon once said, “Volunteerism is a source of community strength. It can bring positive social change by promoting respect for diversity, equality and the participation of all."
In conclusion, by doing voluntary work, both volunteers and people in need get the precious life experience, and it benefits our society to a large degree. We should keep on doing and appeal to more people to take part in this meaningful activity.

61．主旨大意题。第一段点明主题 （当今社会，做义工越来越受到人们的欢迎，因为它有助于自己、有助于他人、有助于社会。），后面几段分别深入阐述了做义工给义工本人、他人和社会带来的益处。故选D。
62．细节理解题。根据第二段中的“ when doing voluntary work with others, we are improving our ability to cooperate with different people and build up team spirit（当与别人做义工的同时，我们能改善我们与不同的人合作的能力，也能建立团队精神）”可知，做义工可以提高义工本人与各式各样的人打交道的能力。故选A。

主旨大意题是篇章阅读一个主要的考察方式，文章主旨大意题其一个典型的考点。主旨大意题解题技巧是不要被文章细节所干扰。一般有两种方式解题：一是看首尾段，根据首尾段内容总结主题思想；二是看每段段首句，根据所有段首句总结主题思想。本文是一篇说明文，说明文一般都会在首段提出文章中心，然后后续段落从不同角度来*中心。本文也不例外。所以解主旨大意题时，借助文体的特点，也是一种很快的方法。
