As a volunteer(自愿者) teacher, I traveled a long way to a small village school in Longzhou, Guangxi. On my way there, I thought about the village, the school and the childrenn there. However, my heart sank when I arrived there. It wasn't what I expected. It didn't look like a school at all! The school had only three rooms, one for Grades 1, 2 and 3, and the other for Grades 4, 5 and 6. There was a third one for me.

　　The children welcomed me warmly on my first day. They asked me a lot of questions, and I told them stories about myself and my life in Shanghai. The next day, I gave them a test to find out their level（水平）. To my surprise, though the test was very easy, over half of the students failed it, yet they all wanted to learn new things. I knew they needed me.

I was busy preparing lessons and reading test papers every night. I enjoyed teaching these lovely and hard-working children, and I could see that they were making progress(进步) with my help. I have also learned a lot from them. I understand their level is becoming higher and higher, and we are good friends now.

I worked in Longzhou for a year. I'm very happy, and the experience(经历) is very useful to me. I love the small village and the children. In fact, I would like to continue working here.

“I can’t believe what I’m hearing! ”I thought to myself. Jeff was the last candidate（候选人）for president of Student Union. I really thought I should be chosen.

Later that day, I happened to pass Jeff in the dining room. I offered       a polite “Congratulations” and walked to my usual table. To my      , Jeff came to me and put his plate beside mine.

“I’m, er-I’m just wondering if you would consider coming to work on my team, ”he said nervously. “You are really       and you would be a great partner.”

“I don’t think so,” I replied, feeling unsure.

“Well,       you change your mind, you can tell me tomorrow. ”He said before moving to another table.

All that night, I thought about the       from Jeff. Maybe being a part of the election process（选举过程）would give me a chance to make important changes at our school. I decided to       Jeff.

      of all, I began to create a catchy advertisement. Within a few days, we       a poster with Jeff’s showing him in a number of activities. No one could walk through any hallway       passing Jeff’s smiling face.

My next step was to       what new activities students would like to have at our school. Many of them wanted a chess club and a volleyball team.

With the information I had collected, Jeff met with the headmaster. The headmaster agreed to add       we want to our school program.

With my help, Jeff and our ideas were well received at school.

An eighth grader said, “      will be exciting to have Jeff as president.”

      these words made my heart filled with pride. I had wanted to become president of Student Union to make a difference. Now I achieved that. Jeff became the most popular candidate and I was a large part of his      . The fact that it has made a       in other people’s lives is the real prize. What a great feeling!
