good morning, ladies and gentlemen,last summer, i volunteered(动词)to work as an english teacher in a primary school for children of migrant workers.to be accurate, i didn't volunteer.i was dragged in literally.when my friends first hit upon the idea of this project.i was all against it.'what?' to spend my vacation standing in the heat yelling at a bunch of nine-year-olds who couldn't even speak proper mandarin chinese? and besides.there's no pay for my toil.no.i am definitely not going.my friends twisted my arms to have me join them.unexpectedly，the first leon i taught turned out a leon for me.the moment i stepped into the shabby claroom.i was touched by the loud, respectful voices in unison.'good morning teacher!' instead of fooling around, the children were thirsty for knowledge and efficient in absorbing everything i was able to give them.this made me despise myself for i hadn't even prepared for the cla.during the break.i leaned over the squeaky desk, chatting with a sweaty boy in the front row.“without air-conditioning, it's really hot here.are you tired?” not at all.said he.shaking his head.it's fine here.my dad builds asphalt roads.that is really tiring and hot.as summer advanced.my enthusiasm as a teacher grew.i prepared my leon carefully and even used some methods my teachers used.i organized many group activities to give the kids fun.strangely enough the heat was also becoming le and le unbearable.soon, my one-month volunnteer came to an end.when i was leaving my last cla, i turned back and saw smiling faces and waving hands.never before had i ever had such a feeling of sadne.which was, neverthele, mixed with a sense of enrichment, fulfillment and happine.i was paid for my work, amply paid, not in terms of money, but something more valuable.my english was improved, i was able to teach it, although not very profeional.i learned about the graroots-level society.inside myself a heart is growing.a heart that not only beats for myself.but cares for others as well.the volunteer work gave me a precious little chance of saying thanks.to people like the little boy's father who construct highways and undergrounds, build up modern skyscrapers, and make our cities more and more beautiful.to help the children with their english was all i could do at present to show my gratitude to these unsung heroes.the world may not have been fair to them.so privileged and bleed people like me make their life better.whatever i do for them, however, i know it can't be compared with what they have done to improve the quality of life in our cities.ladies and gentlemen.now i realize that voluntary shouldn't be just a one-time personal experience.it should be a lifetime activity of everybody.many of us are now offering aistance to the needy and to each other and our efforts have indeed made a difference schooling,----or caring for the elderly in nursing homes, and helping out in 2011 beijing olympics, will not only contribute to the harmony of the world but elevate ourselves as well.emerson once said, “it's one of the most beautiful compensations of this life no man can sincerely try to help another without helping himself” he was right.i hear that my university is going to organize another voluntary teaching program this summer.this time i won't be dragged in.i will volunteer.thank you!
