Volunteering work has been popular in Taiwan these years. Some people do it because they believe they can contribute their time to help people in need and make a better world. Others do it because they follow suit or jump on the wagon after their friends do it. Some people do community service because they did something wrong, and it's court-ordered. So, this week we are going to talk about "any volunteers" Think about the following questions beforehand and feel free to share your opinions with us in class.
