上海燎原国际高中 (http://www.51guoji.com/shlyzx/)报道:2016年寒假里我和Hellen一同前往嘉兴敬老院,为那里的老人做了一些力所能及的事,虽然这次志愿者活动只有短短的4个小时时间,但这段经历却带给我许多感想。
During the winter vacation I went to the nursing homes in Jiaxing with my friend Hellen. We did a lot of things for the elderly living there. Although we just worked for 4 hours I learned a lot from this volunteer activity.
那天早晨,我们来到了敬老院,有许多志愿者已经开始为老人们打扫房间了。
On that morning when we got to the nursing home there were many volunteers who had already started to clean the bed rooms.
我们为老人们包饺子,送棉鞋……老人们也高兴见到我们。
We made a lot of dumplings and gave the warm shoes to everyone. The old people were also very glad to see us.
我们和老人们交谈了许久,有些老人不能说话,只能用微笑和点头回应我们。虽然只是简单的回应,却让我感受到了老人们对我们的感激。
We talked a lot with them. Some of them cannot speak. So they can smile and nod to respond to us. Although it was just simple communications I can feel that they felt grateful to us.
通过这次活动,我感受到了做义工的辛苦但同时也让我感受到了志愿者的意义所在-给别人带去温暖和爱。
During this experience I learned that to be a volunteer is a very tiring job but meanwhile I also learned the significance of being a volunteer. We are trying to let the old feel warm and feel the love.
