Step 1 Lead-in

Free talk

T: My cousin is a policeman. He was busy taking some courses last month. Do you know why he trained so hard? Oh, he wanted to be a volunteer. Now, he is proud to be a volunteer to help others. Look, what do they do in their free time? They help the disabled or blind people visit parks, clean up the environment, give the elderly checkups, repair the household appliances and show the ways. Is it meaningful to be a volunteer? Will you support them?
