This is time of year when we think about giving and receiving presents.Can you find a little extra to give？On this page we suggest a few organizations you might like to help.
Littleton Children’s Home
We don’t want your money，but children’s toys，books and clothes in good condition would be very welcome.Also，we are looking for friendly families who would take our children into their homes for a few hours or days as guests.You have so much—will you share it?

We look after a small number of very sick children.This important work needs skill and love.We cannot continue without gifts of money to pay for more nursing staff.We also need story books and toys suitable for quiet games.
Please contact The Secretary，Little Children’s Hospice，Newby Road.
Street Food
In the winter weather，it’s no fun being homeless.It’s even worse if you’re hungry.We give hot food to at least fifty people every night.It’s hard work，but necessary.Can you come and help？If not，can you find a little money？We use a very old kitchen，and we urgently need some new saucepans.Money for new ones would be most welcome indeed.

Have you got an unwanted chair—a record player—a pot of paint？Because we can use them！We want to get to work on our meeting room!

Night Shelter
We offer a warm bed for the night to anyone who has nowhere to go.We rent the former Commercial Hotel on Green Street.Although it is not expensive，we never seem to have quite enough money.Can you let us have a few pounds？Any amount，however small，will be such a help.

Ⅱ.完形填空
Many language learners think their pronunciation is good enough because their teacher doesn’t correct them too often or because other students can
8
them.
Pronunciation is the area which is
9
the least attention to in language learning.Most teachers
10
just let their students speak.The teachers stop them
11
the students say something completely wrong.Working on each student’s pronunciation in class is just
12
.Also，the students who are
13
at pronunciation may be afraid that it will embarrass their classmates if they help
14
their mistakes.
Although you believe your pronunciation is good enough to
15
，you may be
16
when you actually go to a foreign country.One of my friends was the best student in his
17
class in Poland.However，when he went to America，he found Americans didn’t understand
18
of what he said.
Your pronunciation may still be quite
19
that of a native speaker.If this is the
20
，other people will find it
21
to understand what you’re saying and will not be comfortable with you.
22
，don’t think you can communicate in a foreign language
23
you’ve tested your skills on real native speakers.
24
for native or nearnative
pronunciation so that people you talk to can communicate with you
25
.In order to achieve this goal，there’s no
26
that you will need to start thinking about pronunciation and
27
time on it.
