Each nation has many good people who help to take care of others.For example，some high school and college students in the United States often spend many hours as volunteers in hospitals，orphanages （孤兒院）or homes for the aged.They read books to the people in these places，or they just visit them and play games with them or listen to their problems.
Other volunteers go and work in the homes of people who are sick or old.They paint，clean up，or repair their houses，do their shopping or mow（修整）their lawns（草坪）.For boys who no longer have fathers there is an organization called Big Brothers.College students and other men take these boys to baseball games or on fishing trips and help them 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（手藝）.Some of these clubs show movies or organize short trips to the mountains，beaches，museums or other places of interest.Most of these clubs use a lot of high school and college students as volunteers because they are young enough to remember the problems of younger boys and girls.
Volunteers believe that some of the happiest people in the world are those who help to bring happiness to others.

1．Dear Dr Lee，
The days of mine are not all sunny.As a middle school student，I have many problems.On the one hand，I am under great pressure（壓力） in my studies，I need to take the exams every month.If I fall behind other students，I will feel that I am not doing well.I always want to be the best，but things can't go on my way.On the other hand，I don't want to talk to my parents about my problems.If they ask me questions，I will answer them with few words.I think they won't understand me.And my body grows fast，changes happen in me，I can't control my emotion（情緒）.What should I do？
LauraDear Laura，
It's normal to have these problems.But don't worry.The life is not always wonderful.Everybody has growing pains（痛苦） on their way to the growth.But the time is fair（公平的），gains（收獲） are always with pains.Growing pains seem full of knowledge and experience.Although there's so much homework，so many exams，and so many different ideas between the parents and you，you will learn how to make your dreams come true by working hard and how to understand each other by talking with your parents.Growing pains worry you a lot but they will give you power（力量） and confidence（自信） at the same time.They can help you to be successful and make more friends as well.Successes and friendships can make you happy and enjoyable.Both pains and gains can make your life more colorful.So I think what you need to do is learning to adjust（調節(jié)） yourself and get used to these changes.You need to open your heart and have less pressure.

2．Dear Laura，
Thanks for your message.Yes，I'm having a great time on my exchange program in France.I was a bit nervous before I arrived here，but there was no reason to be.My host family is really nice.They go out of their way to make me feel at home.The grandmother has a teenage granddaughter about my age who is rally kind.She always talks to me in French to help me practice.And you wouldn't believe how quickly my French has improved!I'm very comfortable speaking French now.
Although I still make lots of mistakes，it doesn't worry me as it used to.
My biggest challenge is learning how to behave at the dinner table As you can imagine，things are really different from the way they are at home.For example，you shouldn't put your bread on your plate.You are supposed to put it on the table!I thought that was pretty strange at first，but now I'm used to it.You shouldn't eat anything with your hands except bred，not even fruit!You have to cut it up and eat it with a fork.Another thing is that it is very impolite to say you're full If you don't want any more food，you should just say， "It was delicious.".Also，you shouldn't put your elbow on the table I have to say that I find it difficult to remember everything，but I'm gradually getting used to it.I don't find French customs so strange any more.
Dear Laura，I'll write again soon and tell you more about my life in France.Hope you are having a good school year.
Yours，
Lin Yue
