Dragon boat models and the brochure “100 English Sentences for the Asian Games” smelling like ink were placed on the volunteer booths. Volunteer Jin Xiufang said that the dragon boat race of the Asian Games will be held in Ouhai, and a group of foreign guests will be welcomed. In order to show the friendship of the host, the English Volunteer Service Team used its expertise to compile booklets and distribute them to local communities and elderly universities. This time, I specially brought it to my friends in Hangzhou.
