Each country has many kind people who volunteer to take care of others. For example, some high school and university students in the US often spend many hours as volunteers in hospitals or old people’s homes. They read books for the people or they just visit them and play games with them or listen to their problems.

Other young volunteers go and work in the homes of the sick people. They clean up their houses or do the shopping. For boys who don’t have fathers there is an organization called “Big Brothers”. University students and other people take these boys to play baseball games and help them get to know things that boys usually learn from their fathers.

Each city has a lot of clubs where boys and girls can go to play games or take part in other activities. Some of these clubs show movies or have short trips to the mountains, the beaches or the museums. Most of these clubs use a lot of high school and university students as volunteers because they can understand the problems of these boys and girls more easily.

Volunteers believe that some of the happiest people in the world are those who help to bring happiness to others.

One day at work, my American coworker and I decided to go out to lunch together. We saw one restaurant that sold specialty dishes from Xi’an.

We decided to try it out. My coworker said, “Maybe we can have some ‘Roger Moore’ (a famous British actor)!” I felt confused, so I asked her what she meant. She explained that she was talking about roujiamo (肉夾饃), which sounds like the name “Roger Moore”. It’s a type of Chinese snack that comes from Shaanxi province.

My first thought was that the roujiamo was very similar to an American hamburger. The pieces of flatbread were like hamburger buns, with meat in the middle.

Our roujiamo were made fresh, so the bread was still warm. It was soft and fluffy (松軟 的) when I bit into it. The meat inside was salty and tender (嫩的). It was quite delicious.

Roujiamo is popular in other countries, too. In the United States, a businessman named Jason Wang opened more than 10 chain restaurants called “Xi’an Famous Foods”. Roujiamo is one of their most popular dishes. The restaurants attract about 140,000 customers every year, according to Forbes magazines.

A. a kind of American food B. created by the British actor Roger Moore

C. like the American hamburger D. a Chinese snack from Shaanxi province

B. Xi’an Famous Foods sells the world’s best roujiamo
