20．While other students were taking part in workshops or planning baths for their pets on a typical Thursday morning，I spent mine doing an internship（实习）at Western Massachusetts Labor Action，a non-profit organization that helps low-income members of society．Upon arriving there，I didn't know what to expect．Do people just come in and ask for food？Is there more paperwork or in-the-field action？This opportunity，however，helped me to answer my questions．
One morning，while my partner and I were doing the office work，our supervisor（主管）called us into his office to listen to a conversation on the phone．
On the other end of the line，a 65-year-old man living in a nearby town said desperately that their electricity company was shutting off his heat due to his debt issues．"You are my last hope．Otherwise，my family and I will have a very hard time surviving the cold winter，"the man said，his voice losing contro1．Hearing this terrible news，my supervisor frowned，but told him，"Don't worry．I'11 do everything I can to help you．"Then he quickly called the electricity company．
After a long negotiation，my supervisor managed to give the 65-year-old man a debt repayment（偿付）system，which meant that he could pay off his debt a little bit per month．He was calling to tell the man the good news when the man suddenly shouted that he was having a heart attack．My partner and I just looked at each other and kept silent．After seconds that felt like hours，the man told us that it was a false alarm and that he was all right．
I was amazed at this man and his family's situation，but was even more impressed that my supervisor had saved them from a hardship like a whole winter without heat．My supervisor was a superhero!From that moment on，I have had great respect for all forms of community service and felt thankful that I could be a part of it-giving back what I have to the community and helping others achieve happiness．
