[00:01.92]Module 6 SOCIAL WORK VOLUNTEERS
[00:07.69]Unit 2 My mother often told me to help
[00:12.47]people in need.
[00:15.14]1 Listen and read.
[00:19.43]Goudiaoyan Village is one of the poorest places
[00:23.76]in China.
[00:25.45]It has no electricity or telephones.
[00:29.84]When Xu Benyu read an article about the poor
[00:33.81]conditions of a primary school there,
[00:36.75]he wanted to work as a volunteer teacher
[00:39.49]in the village.
[00:41.58]Xu himself was born into a poor family.
[00:47.85]"My mother always helped others even though
[00:51.67]our family was poor," he said.
[00:55.02]"She often told me to help people in need."
[00:59.14]Xu was shocked
[01:00.89]when he saw Yandong Primary School.
[01:04.10]It had the worst conditions of any school
[01:06.93]in the area.
[01:09.18]It was built in a cave in the mountains
[01:12.22]and it had no electricity or lights.
[01:16.74]Two walss made of sand divided the cave
[01:20.58]into different classrooms.
[01:23.86]Xu quickly made friends with the students.
[01:27.62]He read them stories and taught them pop songs.
[01:32.44]When he left two weeks later,
[01:34.98]the students walked many miles into town
[01:38.10]to see him off.
[01:40.33]Xu received eggs from the students,
[01:43.43]the most precious gift they had.
