A YEAR WITH OVERSEAS VOLUNTEERS

I was with Overseas Volunteers (OV) for a year after leaving university, and I was sent to
an isolated village in Chad, about 500 km from the capital N'Djamena. Coming from' a rich country, I got quite a shock as conditions were much harder than I had expected. But after a
few days I soon got used to living there. The people were always very friendly and helpful,
and soon I began to appreciate how beautiful the countryside was.

One of my jobs was to supply the village with water. The well was a long walk away.
And the women used to spend a long time every day carrying heavy pots backwards and
forwards. So I contacted organization and arranged to have some pipes delivered. We built a simple pipeline and a pump, and it worked first time. It wasn't perfect - there were a few
leaks, but it made a great difference to the villagers, who had never had running water
before. And not only did we have running water, but in the evenings it was hot, because the
pipe had been lying in the sun all day. All in all, I think .my time with OV was a good
experience. Although it was not well-paid, it was well worth doing, and I would recommend it to anyone who was considering working for a charity.

Question 24.The author ______.

A. has been working for OV for a year
B. is living in the capital N'Djamena
C. was born in a rich family
D. used to be a volunteer working in a remote village

Question 25. How did the author feel when he arrived in the village?

A. surprised
B. impressed
C.disappointed
D.depressed

Question 26. Which of the following is not true?

A. It took a lot of time to take water home from the well.
B.The villagers used to live in conditions without running water.
C. A pipeline was built to carry clean water to homes.
D. Solar energy was used to heat water.

Question 27. The word 'It' in line 13 refers to ______.

A. running water
B. the pump
C. the pineline
D. the supply of water

Question 28. What does the author think about his time with OV?

A. It was paid a lot of money.
B. It was not worth working.
C. It wasted time.
D. It provided good experience
