▶ Your Answer :
According to the reading passage it states
that let the students to do community service is not beneficial for them;
however, the listening passage refutes this idea by providing several counter examples.
To begin with, the writer asserts that it
is not easy to check the students with fairness. Since there are no people to
watch what they are doing, students may misinterpret what they have done. For
example, after a student pulls a few weeds, she thinks she helped to beautify
the garden. Conversely, the lecture contradicts this idea by stating that most
schools own community service program evaluation criteria. Therefore it is easy
to verify and accurate fairly. It is very easy because they just need to simply
fill out the form.
Furthermore, the author contends that
students may get distorted views of true community service. Even though the
community service is helping out the others without any compensation, students
may want to receive them. In contrast, the speaker belies this claim by stating
that community service could actually inspire students. For example, if
students decided to work in a local hospital or helping out the students
finishing homework, they may be inspired to become a doctor and teacher that
professionally helping the peoples.
Moreover, the passage claims that, it is
sort of abusing children through requiring them to spend time on the particular
events. According to the US Constitution, it states that all citizens should be
protected from involuntary servitude. On the contrary, the lecturer rebuts this
point by stating that most aspects of school life are conducted without
approval of students. To illustrate, skipping classes and not doing home work
are required as mandatory whether they liking them or not. Doing a home work is
a part of a school life. Therefore, requiring them to do community service is
not different from part of a school life.
In conclusion, while the text maintains
that it is not desirable to forcing students do community service, the
professor challenges these points by stating a few opposing examples.
