Every year, a lot of young people in Britain finish school and then take a year off before they start work or go to university. Some people go to other countries and work as volunteers. Volunteers give their time to help people — for example, they work in schools or hospitals, or they help with environmental protection .

Pauline Jones, 18, lives in Cardiff, Wales. Next year she wants to go to a university to study Spanish, but now she is living in Belize, a small country in Central America. Pauline says, “I’m working with other people here to protect the coral reefs (珊瑚礁) in the sea near Belize. The reefs here are beautiful, but if the sea water is polluted, the coral dies. I’m helping to study 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. They are very friendly and I help with the cooking and the cleaning. I don’t get any money, but that’s OK. I love my work here, and I have learned a lot about the people of Belize — and myself. When I finish my work, I want to stay here for another three months.

Peter and Tim are green people. They plant trees every day and the number of their trees is more than 10,000.

The two men live in a poor small village. Peter is blind for there is something wrong with his eyes and Tim lost his two arms in an accident when he was only three years old. In 2016, the two decided to work together since both of them had no jobs because of their physical condition. They wanted to find a way to make money. So they decided to plant trees. They hoped to make money by selling trees.

You could imagine how much difficulties they would meet when they planted trees. As they didn’t have enough money to buy young trees to plant, they had to use branches (树枝) from big trees. Peter climbed on Tim’s shoulders to get the fine branch. After that, Peter dug a hole and planted it with care. Finally, Tim watered the branch.

Now the land is covered with thousands of trees. And a lot of birds come here every year.

“I am his hands,” said Peter. “He is my eyes. We are good partners. Having worked together well, we planted so many trees. ”
