1 . In the world, there are lots of people who want to help out. Many join organizations (管理) run by their governments, for example, the Peace Corps in the United States and Voluntary Service Overseas in Britain. Since the terrible earthquake took place in Wenchuan, more than 200 thousand volunteers across China have been helping there! They do all kinds of work or come up with ways to help improve life. Some offer their professional skills for free. Others have no qualifications (资历), but they love to work hard to help.

One of the most famous volunteers in the world was Mother Teresa. She could be the best volunteer because she gave her life to helping the poorest people of Calcutta. She helped the homeless, cared for the sick, gave out food, and became the mother of those without families.

Now more and more teenagers actively look for volunteering opportunities (机会), too. They volunteer because they think it will be fun or they will learn something. They also like the idea of being helpful to others, even if it is just handing out books for the teacher. As they get older, these reasons are still the same, but there are other important reasons for volunteering such as learning on—the-job, getting work experience, and improving their social life.

All volunteers bring joy to the people they help in so many ways. They might read books to the blind, fix up broken homes, find ways to get water for villagers. Could you be a volunteer? What kind of volunteer work could you do? There is someone in the world who needs you.

3 . March is the month to learn from Lei Feng in China. Lei Feng is probably the most famous Chinese soldier (军人). He was born in 1940 in Changsha, Hunan. Lei Feng lost his parents when he was very young. His neighbors brought him up. He became a soldier at the age of 19. He helped many people during his 22 years of life. He passed away (去世) more than 60 years ago. But the “Lei Feng spirit (精神) ” still inspires (激励) Chinese people to do volunteer work.

Lei Feng often spent his spare time and money in helping people in need. He did many good deeds (善举) in his life. For example, he gave his own money to the parents of another soldier, and bought tickets for a woman he didn't know without telling her his name. Lei Feng hardly ever spoke about what he did. After he died, people found his diary and learned about him. “There is a limit (限度) to one's life, but no limit to serving the people,” Lei Feng once said in his diary.

In 1963, Chairman Mao Zedong called on (号召) the nation to learn from Lei Feng. Lei Feng is more than a name in China; he’s a symbol of selflessness (无私). Lei Feng is a role model and all Chinese young people can learn from him. The spirit of Lei Feng will always be with us.

The Youth Team is one of the volunteer groups during the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics. The 192 young volunteers worked for 66 days.

It is not an easy job to work as a volunteer. Liu Junyu is one of the volunteers in the team and he designed the routes (设计路线) around the venues (场馆).

9 . A year ago, I volunteered to teach at a small village school in Guizhou Province. As a volunteer teacher, I travelled a long way to the area. On my way there, I thought about the village, the school and the children there. However, my heart sank (下沉) when I arrived there. It wasn’t what I expected. It didn’t look like a school at all! The school had only three rooms, one for Grades 1, 2, and 3, and the other for Grades 4, 5 and 6. There was a third one for me.

The children welcomed me warmly on my first day. They asked me a lot of questions, and I told them stories about myself and my life in Shenyang. The next day, I gave them an exam to find out their level. To my surprise, though the exam was very easy, over half of the students flunked it, yet they all wanted to learn new things. I knew they needed me.

I was busy preparing lessons, correcting exam papers every night. I enjoyed teaching these lovely and hard-working children, and I could see that they were making progress with my help. I have also learned a lot from them. I understand their lives better, and we are now good friends.

I have worked there for a year now. I’m very happy, and the experience has been very useful for me. I love the small village and the children there, and they still need me.
