Hi, my name is Joseph and there’s something I’d like to share with you.

My 16-year-old son, Dylan, told everyone his trip to South Africa last summer. It was one of the most amazing trips of his life. Most people would think that he was on a vacation there. But Dylan spent almost the whole ten days of his trip building houses for people there. It was volunteer work. It was hard and dirty. I never thought that he would enjoy it, but he loved it.

It is one of the most important things for parents to encourage teenagers to do volunteer work. And the amazing thing is, once they get a taste of it, teenagers will love to volunteer. And students who do volunteer work do better in school than those who don’t volunteer. In fact, volunteering provides many things for teenagers. They can get a wonderful experience and a good chance (機(jī)會(huì)) to meet new people.

It’s not difficult to find volunteer jobs for teenagers. They can find them in hospitals, libraries, children’s museums and so on.

1.How did Dylan like his trip to South Africa?

_______________________________________________________________________
