     Every year thousands of young people in England finish school and then take a year off before they start
work or go to university. Some young people go to other countries and work as volunteers (志愿者). Volunteers
give their time to help people. For example, they work in schools or hospitals, or they do something helpful for
the environment.
     Pauline Jones, 18, lives in Cardiff, Wales. Next year she wants to go to university to study Chinese, but now
she's living in Belize. Pauline says, "I'm working with other people here to save the coral reefs (珊瑚礁) in the
sea near Belize. The reefs here are beautiful, but if the sea water is very polluted (污染), the coral dies. I'm
helping to do research on the coral and the fish that live around the reefs. All over the world, coral reefs are
dying. We need to do something about the problem before it's too late." 
     "I'm staying with a family here and I help do some housework. I don't get any money, but that's OK. I love
my work here, and I'm learning a lot about the people of Belize-and myself! When I finish my work, I want to
stay here for another three months. I want to travel around Belize and Central America."

     E-book is short for electronic (电子的) book. It is usually read on personal computers. Some mobile
phones can also be used to read e-books.
     Earlier e-books were written for a specific group of readers and were about only a few subjects. With
the development of the internet, knowledge and answers to a lot of questions mainly come from e-books.
This is why the e-book business is increasing quickly.
     E-books have many advantages. First, they save time. We don't need to go to a bookstore to buy books,
besides, we can find the topic we want to know about on the Internet, and then we can quickly get many
e-books on similar topics. Second, e-books save money. Some e-books cost a little money, and there are
millions of e-books on the Internet that we can get for free. Third, more trees are saved because e-books
don't need to be printed(印刷) on paper. Fourth, e-books make reading more convenient. You can carry a
whole library of hundreds of books with you in a small computer or any e-book reader (电子阅读器)
without worrying about their weight.
     But e-books have certain disadvantages. They need a personal computer or an e-book reader and the
information can be lost if its file format (文件格式) is not supported or changed in the reader's computer.
     However, e-books provide us with a new way of reading. That is good.
