题目内容
19.Every Wednesday,I go to Cantata Adult Life Services,a local retirement community in Brookfield,Illinois,US,with my classmates to do community service.After my very first visit to Cantata,my life changed forever.That may sound a bit dramatic,but volunteering with the elderly has changed my views on life.
Our visits last about an hour,and we bring 25-30students every time.We play board games and cards with the residents while we're there.
You can watch all the movies and TV shows you want about"life back then",but nothing compares to talking to the people who were actually there.Just hearing their stories has touched me in a way I never thought possible.It made me realize that it's the little things that make life worth living.That's something I won't forget anytime soon.
If there's one thing I've realized in my three years of visiting Cantata,it's that presence-just being there-means more than anything to many of the residents.And despite how busy our lives are,there's always time to make someone's day.
It's easy to feel like you don't have anything in common with the elderly-especially when you're a teenager.But that's not true at all.
I hate to be overly cliched (陈词滥调的) here,but age really is just a number.As young adults,it's important for us to realize this sooner rather than later.We can learn a lot from the elderly,and they can often benefit from teenagers too.
