I intend to get the path which named "downlads " under 'volumns' in the current directory
$ cd /volumes/**/downloads; pwd; cd -
/volumes/Transcend/downloads
/Users/me/downloads
change to them, print and change back,
Is there a handy way to handle this

So you want to list the contents of all directories named "downloads" recursively?

Can you repair all of the typos in the post, and then explain why you need to cd to them only to immediately return? Why not just print them?

You can simply do this using find command as:
find ./ -iname 'downloads'
-iname: search for incase-sensitive.
Is there any specific reason to change to the searched directory and then printing pwd and then changing back again?
BTW, you'd need to run this command from the directory in which you want to search for downloads
