Once there was a boy．He loved sweets very much．He always asked his father for sweets．
The boy’s father thought hard about how to stop the child from asking for so many sweets．A great man lived nearby．The boy’s father decided to take the boy to him．He might be able to make the child give up sweets．
So they went to the great man．The father asked the great man to help him．But the great man liked sweets himself．He told the father to bring his son back after a month．
During the month, the great man tried to give up eating sweets．At last he did it．When the boy and his father returned after a month, the great man had a talk with the boy．From then on, the boy did not ask for sweets any more．
The boy’s father felt surprised, “Why didn’t you ask my son to give up sweets when we came to you a month ago?” The man answered, “How could I ask a boy to give up sweets when I loved sweets myself?In the last month I gave up eating sweets．”
A person’s example is always stronger than words．We should not ask others to do what we can’t do ourselves．

Indonesia is my mother’s homeland and one of my favorite countries．Since I was young, I had learned a lot about the country and become interested in it．For a long time I had wanted to do something for the country and people there, and I thought volunteering would be a good and fun way to do so．
I received the greatest pleasure from being with the children．
Teaching my first English class in Aceh was exciting but I was rather nervous．As time passed by I learned how to be a better teacher．Teaching was actually the most enjoyable of my many responsibilities(责任)．
Many children were shy at first．But when they relaxed, they would start talking and telling you a lot of funny things．I believe we were helping them build up their confidence．
For the children who are more in need, The Education Program(TEP)will collect donations from the public to help them．
As a volunteer, I had to visit the TEP children at home once a month and help them write a thank-you letter to their sponsors．This was a way for the children to communicate with their sponsors．Sometimes the sponsors would write back to the children．Seeing the children’s happy faces I had a great sense of pleasure．

Your friends might be in England or may be just next-door neighbors, but they are all just afew clicks away．Life has changed a lot for millions of young people who like to make friends online around the world．Whether you use chat room, QQ, MSN or OICQ, you are in this group．
“I don't often talk with my parents or grandparents, but I talk a lot with my friends on QQ, ” said Tears in Hand, an online name used by a girl student in China．
QQ is the biggest messaging service in China now．A report from the company which developed QQ says that 4 million people used it one Saturday night in October．And probably Tears in Hand was one of them．“I log in on Friday nights, Saturdays or Sundays, when I feel bored．I usually spend about ten hours chatting online every week, ” she said．“But I never talk with strangers, especially boys or men．” Even though she likes chatting, she is careful about making friends with strangers online because she knows that she shouldn't believe in the strangers online easily．
