問題詳情：

Volunteering is changing the lives of both children and mentors(導師)!Clara Pittman, 70, of Philadelphia, says about her volunteering   41  , “It gives you a purpose, because you get up in the morning and you know that you’re  42   someplace!”

I, myself, have enjoyed teaching 8~10-year-olds in   43   for many years---it is one of the things that makes me really   44   in life. You sit with children and read to them, have them read to you, and help them with words and grammar. One of the most   45   things about the program is the bond and friendship you  46   with the students, and seeing their reading abilities improve.

Another thing I   47  get happiness from with volunteering is seeing the looks on the faces of the children when they   48  the meaning of certain words!

I’ll   49   forget when a child I was teaching asked me   50  was the meaning of the phrases“take a chill pill”. I told him it   51   “to calm down or regain ones comfort”. His eyes   52   , and I could almost see a light bulb glow above his head!   53  , whenever one of his friends started getting excited and talking really   54  , he would say, “Take a chill pill, man!” and his smile was really   55  . It put a smile on my face, too!

Everybody is  56   by the volunteer work! An organization called Experience Corps brings the   57  , who are mostly retired(退休的)adults, into public schools to help improve the reading skills of   58  from kindergarten to the third grade. Volunteers go through training, and those who work more than 10 hours a week  59  a small pay. According to an independent survey, 96% of volunteers report they feel better about themselves, and 86% report that their  60  have improved since joining Experience Corps.
