III READING
Questions 23-30: Read the text about volunteering in Britain and answer the questions that follow.
Doing some forms of voluntary work has never been more popular with British people Over 20 million people were engaged in voluntary activities in 2013 Volunteering means giving up time to do work of benefit
to the community It can take many forms, from working with children with learning difficulties, or in an animal
hospital, or planting trees When London won its bid to host the 2012 Olympics, up to 70,000 volunteers were needed to help ensure that the games were a success
Volunteers can be anyone of any age Students and full-time workers often manage to involve in some voluntary work But what motivates volunteers? Some do it for a sense of selflessness while others find they have free time available Many mention the opportunity to get to know people they would not normally meet
A relatively new phenomenon is the hope of meeting new friends or even a life partner through volunteering
In a recent British survey, 20% of 18-24 year-olds and 8% of over-65s said their love lives had improved since they began volunteering The same poll found that nearly half of volunteers enjoyed improved health and fitness, a quarter lost weight - especially those working with children or doing conservation projects - and two-thirds felt less stressed So, it seems volunteering may improve your life, and you may even find the person of your dreams
