Lesson 3
A Volunteer Teacher
What do you know about this part of China?
What do you think of the girl in the photo?
Which part of China do you think the picture is from?
This is a real story. The girl’s name is Wang Shu, grew up in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. Upon graduation from the English department of Beijing Normal University, she left Beijing for Inner Mongolia working as a volunteer teacher. She is still there now.
What do you know about this part of China?
Inner Mongolia (Nei Mongol) is the first national autonomous region established in China. It stretches along China’s northern border with Mongolia and Russia and covers an oblong area of over 1.28 million square kilometers, one eighth of China.
Of all the Chinese provinces and autonomous regions, Inner Mongolia is the third largest after Xinjiang and Tibet.

Is it a good idea to do voluntary work? What reasons do people have for doing voluntary work?
To do voluntary work is absolutely a good idea. First of all, voluntary work is work without being paid or with just your expenses paid.
Lots of people do voluntary work for lots of reasons! Some include:
Sample opinion:
* By taking part in the voluntary work,
people are giving time, knowledge and
skills to people who need help. * Making a difference through caring work,
environmental work or community
projects.
* Getting essential work experience for a
particular career. * Developing key skills, like team working
and communication skills, to help get a
job.
* “It has helped me develop all my
personality. I have become more social,
tolerant and able to create my own values.
It gives a lot of possibilities to discover
yourself, the people around you and the
entire world! Voluntary work has really
changed my behavior, actually it has
changed my life!”
The meaning of life is finding your gift. The purpose of life is giving it away.
生命的意义在于发掘你的天赋，生命的目的在于把它奉献出来。

She is a business manager, working for a large company. She is often on business trips. Meetings and phone calls usually take up most of her time.
