Each nation has many good people who help to take care of others. For example, some high school and college students in the USA often1many hours as volunteers in hospital, orphanages or2for the aged. They read books to the people in these places, or they just visit them and play games with them or listen to their3.
Other young volunteers go and work in the homes of people who are sick or old. They paint, clean up. Or repair houses, do their shopping and mow their lawns. For boys who no longer have fathers there is an4called Big Brothers. College students and other5take these boys to baseball games or on fishing trips and6them to get to know things that boys usually learn from their fathers.
Each city has a number of clubs where boys and girls can go to play games or learn crafts. Some of these clubs show movies or organize short trips to the mountains, the beaches, the museums or other7of interest. Most of these clubs use a lot of high school and college students as8because they are9enough to remember the problems of younger boys and girls.

People spend countless hours and dollars each year trying to get ridof these bad habits but often fail. Why? Change is hard work andthere is noshortcut to achieve it. However, there is still some advice for you to follow.
First, look at why you do it. In other words,what's the result of doing this thing? Ifyour bad habit is shouting at people when you are unhappy or under pressure, whatdo you get from it? It may make you feel a little better for a moment. Or maybeyou have a bad habit of leaving your homework undone. The result could be that youget more time to spend on the Internet!

Leaving your homework undoneis a bad habit because you may be punished by your teacher. Having more Internettime means that you lose the chance to learn the things that you need to learn.When you think that way, you'll find that it's not wise to keep your bad habits!Now it is time to make a decision.

Sometimes I really want to know if there is love between my parents. Every day they are very busy trying to make money for my schooling.
One day, my mother was sewing a quilt(缝被子). I sat beside her.
"Mum, is there love between you and Dad?" I asked in a very low voice.
With surprise in her eyes, she stopped her work for a while. Then she said, "Susan, look at this should be a thread. Love is inside."
I couldn't understand her until the next spring. At that time, my father suddenly got sick seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month.
After they were back, my mother helped my father walk slowly on the country road every day.They were so kind to each other and it seemed they were the happiest couple.
After two months, my father still couldn't walk by himself.
"Dad, how are you feeling now?" I asked him one day.
"Susan, don't worry about me." he said. "I just like walking with your mum. I like this kind of life." I knew he loves my mother very much.
Now I understand that love is just a thread in the quilt of our life. Love is inside, making life strong and warm.
