　　Tens of thousands of couples across the United States are racing to get married by April 30．This is the result of a new law that makes illegal(不合法的)immigrants(移民) legal(合法的)if they marry by then．

　　The law has sent marriages rising by 50 percent to 300 percent this year in immigrant-rich Los Angeles, Houston and New York．The new law, passed in the last days of the Clinton administration(任期)，contains a large number of measures to help immigrants and their loved ones become legal．

　　Critics(批评家)say it also brings many marriage frauds(诈骗)．A key aspect allows immigrants to look for houses while remaining in the USA－if they are married to a citizen or legal resident and hand in applications by April 30．After the date, applicants will have to return to their native countries to deal with their paperwork－a requirement that could take as long as 10 years．

　　Demand for marriage licenses in Manhattan this year jumped from 100 a day to more than 300．The Los Angeles County registrar(户籍员)recorder's office supplied 12 997 marriage licences during January and February, and 59 percent increase over last year．

　　Critics say the new law encourages false marriage．There are a lot of frauds as people rush to make use of this window．In the past cases citizens or legal residents were paid US ＄10 000 or more to marry illegal immigrants in which immigration is concluded may be investigated for as long as the years after the vows．

　　By September 1961, more than 70,000 people, both black and white, had participated in sit-ins at segregated restaurants and lunch counters, kneel-ins at segregated churches, read-ins at segregated libraries, and swim-ins at segregated pools and beaches．Over 3,600 people had been arrested, and more than 100 students had been driven away．But they were getting results．On June 10, 1964, the U．S Senate passed a major civil rights bill outlawing(宣布为非法)racial discrimination in all public places．President Lyndon Johnson signed it on July 2, and it begrime law．But the highest credit still goes to the four brave students from North Carolina who first sat-in and waited it out．

　　It's not uncommon in America for a person to belong to some kind of volunteer group．Donating one's time and services is very much a part of the American way of life．Most charitable activities are organized by churches and groups around the nation and even encouraged by the government．The helping hand is extended to the poor, the homeless and the disabled．Some people work to teach youngsters how to read．others open up soup kitchens to feed the homeless．Volunteers also take care of the disabled by making reading tapes for the blind and working in orphanages(孤儿院)to help children without parents．

　　High school students are often encouraged to become volunteers and many school club activities center around volunteer services．Students may work with disabled children during a summer program, or participate in a club activity which helps to bring meal to senior citizens who are shut-ins．With their sense of idealism(理想主义)students are often eager to donate their spare time．They see such activities as a way of becoming involved in the community and the adult-world．Social action for them becomes as important as their academic studies．

　　In a like manner, throughout the year, fund raising drives are also conducted by schools and community groups to raise money for a worthy cause．They may respond to a recent earthquake in a foreign country, a flood somewhere within their own, or another natural disaster which has left people destitute and homeless．They may organize drives to collect food, clothing and medicines to serve an immediate need．Today even the Halloween custom of ‘trick or treat'has become an occasion to collect money for a charitable cause．

　　This call to help those less fortunate than themselves arises from the humble origins of the American nation．Those immigrants who were poor and downtrodden(受压迫的)became dependent on the kindness of their neighbors to make a new life for themselves．
