International Volunteering in New Zealand
If you’re visiting New Zealand and would like to volunteer, DOC(Department of Concentration)welcomes you to get involved.
Before you come to New Zealand
You do not need a work visa to volunteer with DOC. You ran volunteer on entry to New Zealand as long as you do not receive payment or benefits.
You may need a police certificate
Depending on the volunteer work you do with us, you may be required to provide a police certificate to DOC. Your police certificate would need to be written and certified in English. It’s easier for you if you get a police certificate before you leave your country.

International students
Volunteering with DOS is an option to gain experience. However, DOC does not offer opportunities to students who study at:
●universities outside New Zealand, or other education providers outside New Zealand.
Insurance
For all volunteers with DOC, we strongly advise you gel comprehensive(综合的)travel insurance and unlimited medical cover. DOC does not accept responsibility for any:
●personal medical or accident events.
●loss or damage to personal items of equipment, or other associated costs while you’re volunteering with DOC.

56. What may you offer to DOC if you want to volunteer as a foreigner in New Zealand?
A. A work visa. B. A police certificate
C. A university diploma. D. A driver license.
【答案】B
【解析】细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Depending on the volunteer work you do with us, you may be required to provide a police certificate to DOC.”可知，根据志愿者所从事的工作，志愿者可能需要向DOC提供警察开具的证明。即如果你想在新西兰以外国人的身份从事志愿者活动，你可以向DOC提供警察开具的证明。故选B。
57. Who cannot volunteer with DOC in New Zealand?
A. An American official who is travelling in New Zealand.
B. A Chinese businessman with some volunteering experiences.
C. A Chinese exchange student in the University of Auckland in New Zealand.
D. An English college student who has just been visiting his uncle in New Zealand for a few days.
【答案】D
【解析】推理判断题。根据International students 部分中的“However, DOC does not offer opportunities to students who study at universities outside New Zealand, or other education providers outside New Zealand.”可知，DOC不会为在新西兰以外的大学及其他教育机构学习的学生提供做志愿者的机会。结合选项可知，一位来到新西兰叔叔家做客几天的英国大学生不能在新西兰参与DOC的志愿者活动。故选D。
