14. Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing to you about volunteering at the library. I’m interested in computers and teaching, and I want to volunteer as a computer teacher for people who lack computer skills. I love working with computers and I’m good at explaining how to use new software to younger students at my school. I’ve taught my grandparents how to use e-mail and word processing software.

15. I like to help people to enjoy computers as much as I do, so I think I’d be good at this job. I want to help out as a volunteer at your library because I know that many people go there to use your computers. I’m free to help on weekends and sometimes in the evenings. Yours truly, Jiang Hua
