习作1：
Dear Sir,
I am Li Ming, a student from Class Five, Grade Nine. Im writing to apply for the volunteer job you organized this summer vacation.
First, I consider volunteering in an after-school care center will suit me just fine, because Im outgoing and Im good with children. From my point of view, I can put my strengths to good use by singing and reading books with the children, which will sure provide a happy and meaningful time for both of us. Whats more, Im patient enough to take care of the old, so its a good idea to volunteer at an old peoples home, where Im going to chat with them and go out of my way to make them feel at home.
Being a volunteer is GREAT! There is no denying that my coming vacation will be full joy. Let me join you, please. Offer me a chance and I will return a surprise. Im looking forward to your kind reply.
习作2：
I heard that volunteers are wanted so Im writing to join the campaign. Id like to clean the city park and work in an animal hospital. If I can do that, Ill try my best and clean it thoroughly. As for working in an animal hospital, I can help vet caring for the animals. Its always a pleasant thing for me to get along with animals. I think I have several strengths to be a volunteer. First, Im willing to clean out environment we rely on. Secondly, I love animals. Thirdly, Im quite an outgoing person and I will spend my spare time helping others.
I really like the voluntary activities because they give me a chance to spare no effort to do something meaningful.
