A

I’ll never forget the little boy called Dick. At that time, I worked in a hospital. There was a little girl. She was badly ill. The only chance to make her healthy again was a blood transfusion (输血) from her five-year-old brother Dick.

The doctor told the boy about that and asked whether (是否) he would like to give his blood to his elder sister. Thinking of his sister, he thought for a moment, and took a deep breath. He said, “Yes, I will do this, if it saves her life.”

The moment came. His sister was lying on the bed next to him. The boy looked at her and smiled, but gradually his face became pale and his smile disappeared. He asked the doctor in a low voice, “Doctor, will I start to die right now?”

The doctor smiled and said, “Of course not. You’ll be stronger than before soon.”

The little boy thought that if he saved his sister, he would die, but he still chose to save her. What a brave boy!

Helping others can help improve the quality of life. When we do things for others, it can be good for our health and children’s education, and it can even reduce the crime rate (降低犯罪率).

Professor Paul Whiteley says, “The research has shown an interesting connection between

helping others and enjoying a good quality of life. It seems that when we care for the needs of others, we may also get something good for ourselves.”

Whether a community is rich or poor, volunteering has a good influence (影响). “A poor community with lots of voluntary activities can do better in health, crime and education than a rich community without such activities,” says Whiteley.

The research has also tested the connection between voluntary activities and life happiness. Again, there is a strong connection between communities with lots of volunteering and those where people are very happy with their life.

Volunteering is good for families and communities. Figures (数据) show that in 2015, 51 per cent of people in England joined in their community voluntary activities. The contribution to the economy made by volunteering in their community was around 42.6 billion pounds in 2015. ()36. What does the first paragraph mainly tell us? A. How to improve the quality of our life.

Why do people enjoy a good life when helping others? A. Because people can get something good. B. Because the people we help feel happy. C. Because we are happy with our work.

D. Because other people give us good comments

()38. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A. Helping others helps reduce the crime rate.
