Giving is Receiving——Personal Growth in Volunteer Work

奉献即有收获——“21世纪联想杯”全国英语演讲比赛冠军演讲

Morning，ladies and gentlemen.早上好，女士们先生们。

Last summer，I volunteered to work as an English teacher in a primary school for children of migrant workers.去年夏天，我自愿在一所外地农民工子弟小学当起了一名英语老师。

To be accurate，I didn’t volunteer.I was dragged in，literally.确切地说，我并不是自告奋勇主动参加的。

When my friends first hit upon the ides of this project，I was all against it：

我其实是被拽着参加的。当我的朋友首次提出这个计划时，我是完全反对的：

“What? To spend my vacation standing in the heat，“什么？让我整个假期，冒着酷暑，Yelling at a bunch of nine-year-olds who couldn’t even speak proper Mandarin Chinese? 对着一帮9岁大的小孩大声嚷嚷，他们甚至连普通话都不标准。

And besides, there’s no pay for my toil.No, I am definitely not going.” But my friends twisted my arms to have me join them.而且，我的辛苦工作是无偿服务。不，我绝对不会去的。”但是在朋友们的坚持下，我还是去了。

Unexpectedly, the first lesson I taught turned out a lesson for me.出乎意料的是，我教的第一堂课却变成了我的一课。

The moment I stepped into the shabby classroom, I was touched by the loud, respectful voices in unison:

当我踏进那间破旧的教室，我被一阵充满敬意、整齐的喊声深深打动了。

“Good morning, teacher!” Instead of fooling around,“老师，早上好！”这些孩子们没有四处打闹，The children were thirsty for knowledge and efficient in absorbing everything I was able to give them.对知识如饥似渴的他们有效地吸收我教给他们的所有知识。

This made me despise myself for I hadn’t even prepared for the class

这让我鄙视自己，因为我事先根本没有备课。

During the break, I leaned over the squeaky desk, chatting with a sweaty boy in the front row: 课间休息时，我靠在一张吱吱作响的桌子旁，与前排一位满身大汗的男孩聊起天来： “Without air-conditioning, it’s really hot here.Are you tired?”

“这里没有空调，实在太热了，你感到累吗？”

“Not at all,” said he, shaking his head.“It’s fine here.My Dad builds asphalt roads.That is really tiring and hot.”

“一点都不，”他摇摇头说，“这里很好。我爸爸在修沥青公路，那才真正又热又累人。” As summer advanced, my enthusiasm as a teacher grew.随着夏天的推移，我作为一名老师的热情在上涨。

I prepared my lesson carefully and even used some methods my teachers used.我认真地备课，甚至采用了一些我老师曾经用过的教学方法。

I organized many group activities to give the kids fun.Strangely enough, the heat was also becoming less and less unbearable.我组织了许多小组活动让孩子们玩得很开心。奇怪的是，这酷暑热浪也逐渐让人能忍受了。Soon, my one-month volunteer work came to an end.不久，我为期一个月的志愿活动已经接近尾声。

When I was leaving my last class, I turned back and saw smiling faces and waving hands.当我结束最后一课时，我转过身，看到那张张笑脸和许多双挥动的手。

Never before had I ever had such a feeling of sadness, which was, nevertheless, mixed with a sense of enrichment,我从未感到如此伤心，但是这种感觉却夹杂着充实。

fulfillment and happiness.I was paid for my work, amply paid, not in terms of money, but something more valuable.满足和幸福。我的工作得到了回报，而且获益很大。这种报偿不是用金钱来衡量的，而是其它一些更加珍贵的东西。

My English was improved.I was able to teach it, although not very professional.I learned about the grassroots-level society.我的英语水平得到了提高，虽然不是很专业，但我可以胜任这份教学工作了。我了解到了基层社会。

Inside myself a heart is growing, a heart that not only beats for myself, but cares for others as well.我的内心激情澎湃，这不单单是对自己的鞭策，也是在关心着其他人。

The volunteer work gave me a precious little chance to say thanks to people like the little boy’s father,这份志愿工作给了我一次难得的机会向诸如那位小男孩的父亲一样的人们表达谢意。

Who construct highways and under grounds, build up modern skyscrapers, and make our cities more and more beautiful.他们修建高速公司和地铁、建设现代摩天大楼，让我们的城市越来越漂亮。

To help the children with their English was all I could do, at present, to show my gratitude to these unsung heroes.而要表达我对这些无名英雄的感激之情，我目前办所能及的事情只是给他们小孩教英语。The world may not have been fair to them,这个社会对他们可能不太公平。

So privileged and blessed people like me are obliged to do whatever we can to help make their life better.所以我们这些幸运和幸福的人有义务尽我们所能，让他们生活得更好一些。

What I ever [whatever] I do for them, however,然而，我所做的事情微不足道

I know it cannot be compared with what they have done to improve the quality of life in our cities.我知道，比起他们为提高我们的城市生活质量所做的贡献。

Ladies and gentlemen, now I realize that volunteering shouldn’t be a one-time personal experience.女士们先生们，现在我意识到志愿活动不应是一次个人经历。

It should be a lifetime activity of everybody.这应该成为每个人的一种终生行为。

Many of us are now offering assistance to the needy and to each other, and our efforts have indeed made a difference.现在我们中的很多人都在为彼此和那些需要帮助的人提供援助，我们这些努力确实是能改变

现状。

Whether we are helping children with their schooling, or caring for the elderly in nursing homes, 不管我们是在教育方面帮助孩子们，还是在敬老院照顾老人们，And helping out in 2008 Beijing Olympics,或者是参加2008年北京奥运会的志愿活动，We will not only contribute to the harmony of the world but elevate ourselves as well.这些都不只是为社会的和谐贡献自己的力量，同时也是在提升自己的道德修养。

Emerson once said, “It’s one of the most beautiful compensations of this life that nomad can sincerely try to help another without helping himself.” He was right

爱默生曾说：“此生最美好的一种报偿就是，任何对别人的真诚帮助必然也是对自己的帮助。”他说的对。

I hear that my university is going to organize another voluntary teaching program this summer.我听说学位今年夏天将组织另一次义务教学活动。

This time I won’t be dragged in.I will volunteer.这一次我不会再被拽着参加了，我会自告奋勇。

Thank you.谢谢。

Euthanasia is a way of relieving ill-people’s pain and saving them from the tortures of their illness.安乐死是一种解除病人痛苦，从疾病的折磨中拯救他们的方法。

Do we have the right to take people’s lives for this reason?

那我们有权利因为这个原因剥夺他们的生命吗？

Or should the right to die be considered a “right” for terminally ill patients?

或者对于患了不治之症的病人而言，死亡的权利能算是一种权利吗？

“When I am dead, my dearest, sing no songs for me.当我死去时，我最亲爱的别为我哀歌悲切。

Plant thou no roses at my head, no shady cypress tree.我的墓前不要栽玫瑰，也不要柏树茂密。

be the green grass above me with showers and dewdrops wet.愿绿茵覆盖我的身躯，还有那湿润的灵珠雨水。

And, if thou wilt, forget.”

假如你不愿意，就把我忘却。”

For many, death is not frightening.For many, death is beautiful.对于很多人而言，死亡并不恐怖，对于很多人而言，死亡是美好的。

For many, suffering from incurable deadly diseases, death is a longing.对于很多遭受不治之症折磨的人而言，死亡是一种渴望。

But no matter what they think, we can’t make the decision for them.Death is their own business.但无论他们想什么，我们都不能替他们做这个决定，死亡是他们自己的事情。

Whether for good intention or bad, if we decide to take another person’s life it’s murder.不管是出于好心与否，如果我们决定夺去别人的生命，这种行为就是谋杀。

We take it for granted that people suffering from long terminal diseases, want to die.我们理所当然地认为那些长期遭受不治之症折磨的人们想结束自己的生命。

Perhaps it might be so, in some cases, but how are we to tell? We can’t make the decision for others.可能某些情况下，事实是这样的，但我们怎样去判断呢？我们不能为其他人做这样的决定。Many old people, suffering from Alzheimer’s, seem to be living a most pitiable life to us.在我们看来，许多患有老年痴呆症的老人似乎在过着一种最悲惨的生活。

They no longer even recognize the beloved ones around them.他们甚至认不出身边爱着他们的人。

But perhaps they’re enjoying their life, because they are now cut off from any worldly affairs and problems.但是他们可能也在享受他们的生活，因为现在他们与所有凡人俗事和问题完全隔绝。

They are kind of reliving their childhood.They are, perhaps, enjoying it.We can’t terminate their life.他们重温他们的童年，他们可能很享受这样的生活，因此，我们不能结束他们的生命。Some people, suffering from cancer, seem to be living most painful life to us,在我们看来，一些备受癌症折磨的人似乎过着最痛苦的生活。

What with all these torturing treatments and the prospect of death in front of them.因为摆在他们面前的是折磨人的治疗和死亡的命运。

But, perhaps, deep down in their heart, they want to go on, they want to live, they want to fight, 但是也许他们内心深处还想继续走下去，继续活下来。他们想和病魔抗争，They want to feel every bit of sunshine on earth, and hear the pitter-patter of rain in spring.他们想沐浴地球上每一缕阳光，聆听春天里劈劈啪啪的雨滴声。

Some people, vegetable people, can’t express themselves, and to us they are not even living a life.一些人，还有一些植物人，他们无法表达自己的想法。这在我们看来，他们简直就不是在生活。

But how are we to know that they want to die? Perhaps, deep down in their heart, they want to struggle,但是我们怎么知道他们想死呢？可能在他们的内心，他们想抗争，They want to see life conquering death.And, besides, miracles do happen now and then.他们想见证生命战胜死亡。更何况，奇迹总是不时的发生。

There are cases that, when a vegetable person is wakened from his long slumber by love and caring.例如，通过精心照顾，爱的力量会让一位植物人从长期的沉睡中苏醒过来。

If we rob him of that chance, we are committing murder.We are extinguishing hope.如果我们不给他机会，那我们就是在谋杀。我们就是在扼杀希望。

If we make the right to take another person’s life away illegal, I shudder to think what the consequences will be.如果我们拥有非法夺取别人生命的权利，我不敢想象后果是怎样的。

Perhaps some family, tired of taking care of an old person, might get rid of him for that reason.可能一些厌烦了照顾一位老人的家庭会以这个原因而放弃老人。

Perhaps a family full of daughters, sons, granddaughters, grandsons, gaping at the inheritance, will want to get rid of the old person for that reason.I really shudder to think the consequences

可能一个儿孙满堂的家庭会因为对遗产虎视眈眈而想要放弃这位老人，我真的很害怕去想由此产生的后果。

No!If I want to die, it’s my own business.No one is going to take that decision for me.不！如果我想结束生命，这是我自己的事情，没有人能为我做这个决定。

Yes, death might be a beautiful journey after the experience we have on earth,的确！可能当我们有了在这个尘世的各种经历后，死亡是一个美丽的旅程。

But I don’t want to be hurried onto that journey by anybody else.但我不想被任何一个人驱赶到这个旅程。

If I am determined, my life is terminated by another person, I will rise from my grave and haunt that person,如果我自己决定活下去，而我的生命断送于他人之手，我会从坟墓中爬出来，纠缠困扰这个人，“„and he will always feel the shadows, he will always feel the rain, and he will always hear the nightingale weep on, as if in pain.”

“„„他将会感受到阴魂不散，他将时刻感受到雨水，他将时刻听到宛如夜莺痛苦的哭泣。” Thank you.谢谢。

Unexpectedly, the first lesson I taught turned out a lesson for me.出乎意料的是，我的第一节课却变成了我的一课。

The moment I stepped into the shabby classroom, I was touched dy the loud, respectful voices in unison: “Good

During the break, I leaned over the squeaky desk, chatting with a sweaty boy in the front row:“ Without air-

Conditioning, it’s really hot here.Are you tired?”

课间休息时，我靠在一张吱吱作响的桌子旁，与前排一位满头大汗的男孩子聊天：“这里没有空调，实在太热了，你感到热吗？”

“Not at all,” said he, shaking his head.“It`s fine here.My Dad builds asphalt roads.That is really tiring and hot.”

“一点都不，”他摇摇头说，“这里很好。我爸爸在修沥青公路。那里才是真的又热又累人。”

第三篇：奉献爱心 收获幸福

奉献爱心 收获幸福

敬爱的老师，亲爱的同学们！

大家好！今天我演讲的题目是《奉献爱心 收获幸福》

爱是世界上最纯洁，也是最温暖的。爱是无限的。爱是不朽的。每个人都拥有爱，每个人也会在爱的关怀下成长。亲情、友情也会给我们带来无限的快乐和欢笑，这就是幸福。

在生活中，有时候家长会批评我们，这其实是对我们的爱。家长是为了我们好。因为我们是家长的掌上明珠。我们好比一棵小树，需要经过剪枝，浇水，施肥才能茁壮成长。

课堂上，老师时常教育我们，要去关心别人，关心别人就等于关心自己。因为爱是连接人与人之间的纽带，只有把爱处处撒播，生活才会变的更美好。

爱也是完美的，它给了我们很大的勇气，它让我们充满信心在人生的道路上畅通无阻。

爱，藏在世界的每个角落，就看你有没有去发现它，有没有把它找出来给予别人。人人都需要爱，让世界都充满爱吧！

世间的“爱”是永恒的，是不变的，是永存于世的.所有的惊人举动，都有爱的力量，都是爱创造出来的，没有爱，就没有一切。一个人心里有别人，总能设身处地地为他人着想，并有爱的奉献，那么得到的将是内心的充实，高尚的人格，爱心的照耀。甘愿为他人付出真情和爱的人，一定会收获幸福。

收获感动

——合肥三中 福利院温暖行

2013年6月3日下午14时30分，合肥三中校团委的老师领导两位学生代表联合学校民盟在合肥市社会福利院开展了“关爱儿童送温暖”活动。合肥社会福利院是合肥市孤儿的救济中心。来到福利院的综合大楼一楼，便可以看到孩子们的彩笔画，亮丽的颜色给福利院带来一丝阳光的气息。带着送给孩子们的玩具食品来到五楼。据福利院的老师说，福利院的孩子年龄都在三到八岁左右，大多都是有先天性疾病而被父母送到这里来的。陪着孩子们一起分享食物，一起玩游戏，整个福利院都充满着欢声笑语。

孤儿的生活学习问题一直是社会所关注的焦点，那些留在福利院的孩子们看起来和其他人没什么区别，但他们的心里总会有一处缺口，需要周围有爱心的人用温暖弥补。让我们行动起来，将爱与幸福传播，让社会充满阳光！

第五篇：奉献爱心,收获幸福

奉献爱心，收获幸福

乐至实验中学 杨琼瑶

幸福的含义是很宽泛的，而作为教师，我以为我们更比别人幸福的多。因为我们还有另外的收获，那就是：与学生相互关爱的幸福。提到爱，我们常说：我们要给学生爱，用爱去感染每个学生。真的，因为有爱，我们的学生即使不完美，他也可爱，即使不聪明，他也纯洁。因此，我们就会在爱的氛围中感动，走出我们人生独特的蓝天。事实让我明白，这，确实是一个真理。

假如我问：你因为被爱而幸福过吗？可能有人会笑：谁没有啊！可如果你不是老师，我可以说，你的幸福的含义就不完整。工作累了，生活有波折了，家人来电话，朋友来短信，如果不是做老师，这也许就是全部。可教师这份职业，却会让我们获得额外的关爱。

静下心来的时候，我们更明白，其实，我们平时的所作所为更多的是来自一种良心。有人说，教师的职业就是一种良心的职业。是的，只有我们真正做教师的人才能体会到，教师的工作不能用简单的时间和量来衡量，学生占据你的不只是时间，还有你的思想和灵魂。只有做了教师我们才可以体会到什么是魂牵梦绕，想必大家都有这样的体会：多少次半夜醒来，梦境中全是学生„„因为我们更清楚：你面对不只是一名学生，而是他的整个家庭，他的家庭背景，他的成长环境，你要操心的不只是他们的学习，还有他们的精神。

于是，我们就在这样一种平凡与平淡中用自己的良心去付出，就这样实实在在，默默无闻，不求索取。少有惊天动地之举，每天只从繁杂琐碎的工作中理出自己明确的思路；少有哀婉动听的故事，只需看校园里垂杨柳一绿再绿的新意；少有沸腾的飞跃，只是岁岁年年、朝朝暮暮与学生的风雨共度，„„。但这，有谁说不是一种更高尚的奉献呢？没有奉献，何来爱的回报？就是这种平静的奉献，这种源自良心的付出让我们活得更充实，更幸福了！

我们总会向往辉煌灿烂的明天，但明天是由每一个今天垒成，有向往有行动有坚持，方会使刹那变成永恒，使梦想变成现实。我还要说，明天的辉煌还要有今天的默默无语，相互关爱做基础。就因为这个，我们便在默默中从青年走过中年，走近老年！昨夜微霜初渡河，今晨秋风凋青发。这个过程中，我们不是做得很好吗？不以物喜，不以己悲，时刻牢记那间教室里放飞的是希望，守巢的是自己；那块黑板写下的是真理，擦去的是功利；那根粉笔画出的是彩虹，流下的是泪滴，奉献的是自己，在这种充实中完善自我，在宁静中储积生命的动力，奉献爱心，去收获一种人生额外的幸福！人们常说，教师是蜡烛，照亮别人；我们更承认，教师更象火炬，熊熊燃烧中有学生给予的光焰，当我们辛勤的工作日见成效，当我们发现孩子们一个小小的进步时，无不为之欣慰舒心，这样巨大的幸福感难道还不够吗？还是魏书生说得好：把自己平凡的工作当作宏伟的世界去研究，你就会发现无穷的乐趣。

我不是诗人，能够用诗的语言描绘师生关系的微妙，我也不是画家，能够泼墨丹青，全神地勾勒师生相处时的容貌，我更不是个作家，能够以华丽的词藻形容师生相互关爱的一夕一朝，但我可以说，只要有一颗至真至诚的心，就可以把我们的工作做的问心无愧。有一句话非常中听：工作着的人是美丽的，工作着的女人尤其美丽。我要说，工作者的教师不仅是美丽的，更富有魅力。因为虽然我们平凡，我们却用平凡来铸就辉煌，虽然我们清贫，我们却用清贫造就富有。由此，我们就在无言中附丽了一种别样的魅力。印度大诗人泰戈尔说过：“花的事业是甜蜜的，果的事业是珍贵的，让我干叶的事业吧，因为叶总是谦逊地垂着她的绿荫的。”在我看来，这绿荫的付出却能够收获额外的幸福，我还说，这不是任何别的职业可以轻易拥有的。

老师们，同事们，为我们自己能够有幸从事这份光荣的工作，能够有为别人默默付出的机会，能够在不经意中收获幸福而满足和自豪吧！
