Volunteering can make you happier and help you live longer, according to a new study. A research paper
published on Friday in the journal BMC Public Health says doing good deeds for others boosts your mental
health and increases your longevity. Researchers from the UK's University of Exeter reviewed 40 academic
papers into the effects of volunteerism on our health. They found that volunteers had lower rates of depression,
an increased sense of well-being, and a 22 per cent reduction in the chances of dying within the next seven
years. Australians lead the way in volunteering, with an estimated 36 per cent of the population lending a hand.

Leading researcher Dr Suzanne Richards said: "Our systematic review shows that volunteering is associated with
improvements in mental health, but more work is needed to establish whether volunteering is actually the
cause." She added: "It is still unclear whether biological and cultural factors and social resources that are often
associated with better health and survival are also associated with a willingness to volunteer in the first place."
In a separate study from the University of Michigan, researchers suggested three reasons why volunteering may
be beneficial. First, it involves physical activity; second, the social connections we make help to reduce our
stress; and third, it gives us a deep sense of happiness.

London 2012 Olympic Games: Cycling schedule
The London Olympic Games Organising Committee has released details of the full event schedule
for the 2012 Olympic Games.
Cycling is represented in five categories: Road race, time trial, track, BMX and cross-country mountain bike.
The cycling events kick off with the men's road race on July 28, 2012, and conclude with the men's mountain
bike cross-country race on August 12, 2012.
More information on the events can be found via the London 2012 official website.

==============================
An American lawmaker has said cycling is bad for the environment. He also said cyclists should pay a tax to ride
their bikes on the roads. Ed Orcutt, a representative from Washington State, sent an e-mail to the owner of a
local bike shop to outline his thinking. He wrote: "A cyclist has an increased heart rate and respiration. That
means that the act of riding a bike results in greater emissions of carbon dioxide from the rider. Since CO2 is…a
greenhouse gas…cyclists are actually polluting when they ride." Mr. Orcutt said: "You can't just say that there's
no pollution as a result of riding a bicycle….You would be giving off more CO2 if you are riding a bike than
driving in a car."
Mr. Orcutt also believes cyclists should be taxed to use the roads. He said it was unfair that motorists have to
pay all of the costs of building and repairing roads. He wrote: "Currently motorists are paying to use their cars
on the roads…so if cars pay for the roads they are using, it only makes sense that bicyclists would also be
required to pay for the roads they use when they are actually biking on them." Dale Carlson, owner of the Tech
Bike Shop said Mr Orcutt's ideas were wrong. He wrote: "People who choose to ride a bicycle instead of driving
a car actively reduce congestion." He added: "They save wear and tear on our roads and bridges, and reduce
the [need for police] to patrol our highways."
Câu 186. How many categories is cycling shown in the Olympic Games schedule?
A. 3 B. 4 C. 5 D. 6
Câu 187. How can one find further information on the events?
A. In newspapers B. Online
 C. On TV D. On radio
Câu 188. On which day is there a competition beginning in the afternoon?
A. July 28, 2012 C. August 12, 2012
B. July 29, 2012 D. August 1, 2012
Câu 189. What is an idea of the second passage?
A. Good environmental effects of cycling C. Benefits of using a bicycle
B. Purposes of using a bicycle D. Bad environmental effects of cycling
Câu 190. What is suggested by Mr. Orcutt?
A. Taxing bicyclists C. Building roads
B. Patrolling highways D. Avoiding cycling

Re: Karaoke on Saturday Night!

I can't express how excited I got when I read this note! I'm almost jumping for joy right now! I love karaoke
and can't wait to show my skills. I do have a few questions about what's going on with the karaoke and the
contest.
I know the time but I don't know where the venue for the show is. Where is this shindig going to happen
exactly? Currently my car is out of service so I would like to go to a venue that is close to a bus station or some
kind of public transit. Can you give me directions once you have everything figured out?
I was also curious if this was an invite only thing or if I am able to bring anyone to the event. I would like to
bring my new girlfriend along if that is alright. We just met a little while ago but she has such a fiery spirit and
an amazing voice as well. I think she would be an excellent addition to the karaoke if you give her a chance!
She also knows how to rock out her style so I think she will give people a run for their money in the Best
Dressed category!
How do we register for a song? Do we need to register before the event or do we sign up when we arrive?
I hope to hear from you soon! I think we are going to have such a good time!

Regards,
Nick Sanders

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am writing to inquire about possible openings at RAMtronics for a childcare assistant. I recently found a job
posting in SanFran Times magazine and would like to know if you are still looking for people. I am interested in
a full-time position caring for infants and toddlers at any age level.

Thank you so much for your time and I look forward to discussing my qualifications further. If you have any
