1. a. Что означает слово "волонтер"? Какой из плакатов лучше всего символизирует волонтерскую работу? Знаете ли вы лично кого-нибудь, у кого был опыт волонтерской деятельности?

Ответ:

A volunteer is a person who does something, especially helps other people, willingly and without being forced or paid to do it. The poster with the signs "I'd love to help!" and "Sure I can!" best symbolises volunteer work because it shows enthusiasm and readiness to help.

Перевод:

Волонтер — это человек, который что-либо делает, особенно помогает другим людям, добровольно, без принуждения или оплаты. Плакат с надписями "Я бы с удовольствием помог!" и "Конечно, могу!" лучше всего символизирует волонтерскую работу, поскольку он показывает энтузиазм и готовность помочь.
