Each country has many kind people who volunteer to take care of others. For example, some high school and university students in the US often spend many hours as volunteers in hospitals or old people's homes. They read books for the people or just visit them and play games with them or listen to their problems.

Other young volunteers go and work in the homes of the sick people. They clean up their houses or do some shopping for them. For boys who don't have fathers there is an organization called "Big Brothers". University students and other people take these boys to play baseball

games and help them get to know things that boys usually learn from their fathers.

Each city has a lot of clubs where boys and girls can go to play games or take part in other activities. Some of these clubs show movies or have short trips to the mountains, the beaches or the museums. Most of these clubs have a lot of high school and university students as volunteers because they can understand the problems of these boys and girls more easily.

Volunteers believe that some of the happiest people in the world are those who help to bring happiness to others.

Are too many kids obsessed (著迷的)with texting?

Texting Nonstop!

Yes, I do think kids are too obsessed with texting. Many kids I know can be in the same room or even sitting next to each other, but they text each other rather than actually talk! With some of my friends, it’s hard to get their attention when they are texting. People seem to like to text more than talk.

—Riley

Responsible Texting

No, I don’t think too many kids are obsessed with texting. Sometimes kids might just need some time alone on the phone. They probably just need to talk to their friends! I believe most kids are responsible and know when to stop texting.

—Ella

Guilty (羞愧的)of texting too much

Kids are really obsessed with texting. When I text my friends, almost all of them answer back in less than a minute. Some of my friends even get their phones taken away for being on them too much. I see my friends most of my day at soccer or at school, and even I am guilty of texting them several hours a day when I am home. Sometimes it’s better to spend time outdoors and with your family rather than with your phone.

—Tom

Get physical-Get off the phone!

A lot of my friends, as soon as they got a smart phone, were texting or online constantly. Spending that much time on a screen is not healthy for you or your brain. Personally, Fd rather spend time outside doing sports with my friends than on the phone. You can tell your friends things at school or whenever you see next—you don’t have to spend all your time texting.

—Shanna
