Question

If you have no special plans for your holidays, why not spend your time helping others? Nowadays, more and more young people in America volunteer to spend their school holidays working for others. Here are some of their plans.

Jim, 16 I’m going to help the   Forest Centre build new road in the mountains. I’ll spend the whole summer   living in the tent and breathing the clean mountain air. I’m going to sleep   under the stars. It will be a nice sport, and I’ll be able to do something   good at the same time.

 

Susan, 15 This summer, I’m   going to work for Special House Program. They build good, low-cost houses and   sell them to families that are not very rich. They’ll teach me what to do, so   I’ll help people and also have a chance to learn how to build houses.

 

Michael, 17 I’m going to teach   kids who have trouble reading. I’ll work for a program called Reading for Life.   Every day, I’m going to help kids choose and read books that they like. I   want to be a teacher and I love children, so this is going to be a great   experience for me.
