The requirements for high school graduation have just changed in my community. As a result, all students must 36 sixty hours of rvice learning, 37 they will not receive a diploma. Service learning is academic learning that also helps the community. 38 of rvice learning include cleaning up a polluted river, working in a soup kitchen, or tutoring a student. 39 a rvice experience, students must keep a journal(日志)gerand then writ
e a 40 about what they have learned.
Supporters claim that there are many 41 of rvice learning. Perhaps most importantly, students are forced to think 42 their own interests and become 43 of the needs of others. Students are also able to learn real-life skills that 44 responsibility, problem-solving, and working as part of a team. 45 , students can explore possible careers 46 rvice learning.
For example, if a student wonders what teaching is like, he or she can choo to work in an elementary school classroom a few afternoons each month. 47 there are many benefits, opponents (反对者) 48 problems with the new requirement. First, they 49 that the main reason students go to school is to learn core subjects and skills. Becau rvice learning is time-consuming, students spend 50 time studying the core subjects. Second, they believe that forcing students to work without 51 goes against the law. By requiring rvice, the school takes away an individual's freedom to choo.
In my view, rvice learning is a great way to 52 to the community, learn new skills, and
explore different careers. 53 , I don’t believe you should force people to help others – the 54 to help must come from the heart. I think the best 55 is one that gives students choices: a student should be able to choo sixty hours of independent study or sixty hours of rvice. Choice encourages both freedom and responsibility, and as young adults, we must learn to handle both wily.
