The projects may be with their school, neighborhood, or town, but the work of all volunteers is important. Students find that there are many advantages of volunteering.First, volunteering helps others. Many people plain about problems in our society. Volunteers are part of the solution to the problems! While it is easy to plain about things that are not right, the volunteer takes action rather than plaining. When a student spends time working at a retirement (退休) home, cleaning up a park, or teaching a younger student, the volunteer makes the world a better place.Second, being a volunteer makes students feel good about themselves. When a student volunteer knows that his or her efforts have made someone else’s life better, the volunteer feels great. Students always hear people saying that everyone should care about other people. Volunteers make it happen. Although some volunteer work is long or tiring, student volunteers end the day knowing they did the right thing. Their parents, teachers, and the public are proud of them. Knowing they did the right thing makes them feel better, even if they are tired.Finally, students learn that volunteering is fun. A group of students might volunteer to clean up a riverbed in early spring. It is fun to be with their friends, to enjoy the weather, and to piic later in a beautiful, clean area. Other students might read to young children in a playgroup. It is fun to spend time with children and to have them smile and laugh. No matter what their ages or talents are, every student can be a volunteer. The work of student volunteers is a powerful force that makes the world a better place.53.

One day he said to Amy, whose parents were quite poor, “Would you like to earn some money?”“Oh, yes,” replied she, “for I want some new shoes, and papa has no money to buy them with.”“Well, Amy,” said Mr. Thornton, “I noticed some fine, ripe blackberries in Mr. Green’s field today, and he said that anybody was wele to pick them. I will pay you thirteen cents a kilo for all you will pick for me.”Amy was delighted at the thought of earning some money。 so she ran home to get a basket, wishing to go immediately to pick the berries.Then she thought she would like to know how much money she would get if she picked five kilos. With the help of her slate (書(shū)寫(xiě)板) and pencil, she found out that she would get sixtyfive cents.“But supposing I should pick a dozen kilos,” thought she, “how much should I earn then?” “Dear me!” she said, after figuring (測(cè)算) a while, “I should earn a dollar and fiftysix cents.”Amy then found out what Mr. Thornton would pay her for fifty, a hundred, and two hundred kilos. It took her some time to do this, and then it was so near dinner time that she had to stay at home until afternoon.As soon as dinner was over, she took her basket and hurried to the field.
