次の英文は、留学生のナンシー (Nancy) が、友人と参加したボランティア活動について書いたスピーチ
の原稿です。これを読んであとの問いに答えなさい。
Today, I am going to talk about my * experiences in doing volunteer work. I did ア two volunteer
Jobs with my friends during the summer vacation. The first one was to read books to children at the
ibrary. I can'tread Japanese well, so I practiced hard every day before the job.I * made some mistakes
on that day, but I tried hard. The children enjoyed the books and had big smiles. I was very happy to see
their smiles. The second .job was to sing songs for sick people in a hospital. In a big room in the hospital,
we began to sing. Our chorus was not so beautiful. However, people listened to our songs *happily and
:ome of them were crying. An old woman said, "I cried * with happiness. You tried hard to sing for us.
Her words really * moved me.
From these experiences, I learned a very important thing. When you want to do something for
other people, you don't have to be* perfect. Just try very hard. They will see your* passion and they will
feel happy. I will never forget these experiences.
*experience in~ing: ~した経験 *make a mistake : 間違える *happily : うれしそうに
*with happiness : うれしくて *move : 感動させる *perfect : 完べきな *passion : 情熱
