Li Ruyan, 13 and his classmates in Shanghai
did something special last summer. They worked in groups with traffic police at
different crossroads in the city. Holding small red flags, the students helped
keep order and stopped people from jaywalking(乱穿马路).
As part of the school project. Li’s school
has encouraged its students to do more community(社区)work.
After the half day of exhausting work Li told
himself not to jaywalk anymore.
“I think through community work we get to
help others and, more importantly, we grow a sense of responsibility(责任感),” he said.
Community service is an important part of education
for teenagers around the world. In the US and Canada, high school students need
to finish 40 hours of community service before graduation. For those Americans
who have finished 1,400 hours of community work, they can be awarded nearly $
5, 000(33, 000 yuan).
Chinese students today do more community
work, too. For example, starting from 2010, Sichuan high school students have
been asked to do 10 days of community work. It will become part of their school
grade.
Qian Lijun, 16, and her classmates in
Suzhou, Jiangsu went to a local elder care home this winter. They put Spring
Festival couplets (对联) on
the walls and cheered up the people living there.
Li Xiaotian, 15, of Anshan said he
used to clear flyers (小广告)
from telephone poles (电线杆) with his classmates. They
brought tools, towels and buckets and worked for three hours under the summer
sun. “It was tiring, but seeing the clean poles without ugly ads — we really
felt proud,” he said.
