問題詳情：
Doing voluntary work is becoming more and more popular nowadays because it benefits the individual volunteer, people in need and our society.
When helping others, we are enriching our lives as well. First, doing voluntary work is our responsibility and duty. Second, we can enlarge our life circles so that we get more chances to learn deeper about the present situation of our society, which is very important to our future development. Last, when doing voluntary work with others, we are improving our ability to cooperate with different people and build up team spirit. As for us students, doing voluntary work is an effective way to participate in social activities. In other words, it gives us the chances to prepare to fit into the society in advance.
Through voluntary work, the living conditions of people in need are improved. For example, lots of children in remote areas don't have access to enough food and clothes, let alone education. Some people donate money and clothes while some volunteers go to these areas to teach these children, bringing them knowledge as well as the latest information of the world. In this way, these children's qualities of life are improved and they'll integrate into the society more easily and get a sense of belonging.
The more voluntary work we do, the more steady and harmonious our society will be. Volunteers spread warmth and care all over the world, strengthening union and trust among citizens. As Ban Ki-moon once said, “Volunteerism is a source of community strength. It can bring positive social change by promoting respect for diversity, equality and the participation of all."
In conclusion, by doing voluntary work, both volunteers and people in need get the precious life experience, and it benefits our society to a large degree. We should keep on doing and appeal to more people to take part in this meaningful activity.

【分析】
這是一篇議論文。當今社會，做義工越來越受到人們的歡迎，因為它有助於自己、有助於他人、有助於社會。本文就以上三個方面論述了做義工帶來的好處。並呼籲更多的人加入到這一光榮的工作中。
61．主旨大意題。第一段點明主題 （當今社會，做義工越來越受到人們的歡迎，因為它有助於自己、有助於他人、有助於社會。），後面幾段分別深入闡述了做義工給義工本人、他人和社會帶來的益處。故選D。
62．細節理解題。根據第二段中的“ when doing voluntary work with others, we are improving our ability to cooperate with different people and build up team spirit（當與別人做義工的同時，我們能改善我們與不同的人合作的能力，也能建立團隊精神）”可知，做義工可以提高義工本人與各式各樣的人打交道的能力。故選A。
63．詞義猜測題。根據畫線短語所在句子中的“get a sense of belonging（獲得歸屬感）”可推知，畫線部分為“很容易融入社會”之意A. Break into闖入；B. Look into調查；C. Adapt to適應；D. Contribute to捐助; 給……投稿。故選C。
64．細節理解題。根據第四段Ban Ki-moon所說的話“Volunteerism is a source of community strength. It can bring positive social change by promoting respect for diversity, equality and the participation of all”可知，他認為做義工有助於增強團體的力量，它可以帶來積極的社會變革；但沒提到做義工能使人過上富裕的生活，故選D。
【點睛】
主旨大意題是篇章閱讀一個主要的考察方式，文章主旨大意題其一個典型的考點。主旨大意題解題技巧是不要被文章細節所幹擾。一般有兩種方式解題：一是看首尾段，根據首尾段內容總結主題思想；二是看每段段首句，根據所有段首句總結主題思想。本文是一篇說明文，說明文一般都會在首段提出文章中心，然後後續段落從不同角度來*中心。本文也不例外。所以解主旨大意題時，藉助文體的特點，也是一種很快的方法。
