I did volunteer(志愿者) work in a Kenya orphanage(孤儿院)last year. It was an unforgettable experience.
When I first went to Kenya 1 my classmates, I saw many poor children. I was 2 that we might have to live like them. I was right. We had to sleep in a very 3 room—18 girls stayed together. As there was not enough 4, we had to save it day and night. We only had five minutes to have a bath each time.
5 the living environment was bad, we did many things to help children there, such as teaching and cleaning. The most difficult thing for me was taking care of babies who were less than year old. That was the first time I held a baby. It was not 6 at all. The babies kept 7 no matter what I did. When I fed them, they still didn't calm down(平静下来). After a while, I was so 8 from the pain(疼痛)in my back and shoulders. I realized how much my parents did for me when I was young.
When we were 9, a 5-year-old girl gave her teddy bear to us. It was her Christmas gift.
Seeing her smiling face and the clean orphanage, we felt 10 of ourselves.
