— It is. Last school year, my sister asked me to take part in the World Challenge project. It’s when a group of people get together and plan a trip to any country. Then they raise money for the trip by doing different work. We earned the money by helping in the local zoo.
— What a great idea! Any plans for the next year?
— Sure. I’d like to visit Italy next time. This year I want to try babysitting or delivering newspapers. Would you join me?
