第 22 课:Camp counselor 营地辅导员

“Last year I worked as a counselor at a summer camp. 去年我在一个夏令营做辅导员。

It was quite an experience! 那真是一次美好的经历。

My main duties included looking after the campers and leading hiking excursions. 我主要的工作任务是照看营员,同时组织短途徒步旅行。

There were lots of challenges. Many of the campers became ill or homesick. 这可是十分具有挑战性。有很多营员不是生病就是想家,

Others had trouble following the rules. 还有一些成员则无法遵守规定。

Yet despite those problems, I felt I was making a difference in these kids' lives, molding them in some way. 只是除了这些问题难办,我觉得我给这些小孩子的生活带来了变化,在某些方面给他们进行了塑造。

I love thinking about those nights in front of the campfire, singing songs together, looking at the stars. 我喜欢回想在营火前的那几个晚上,一起唱歌,看星星。

I hope they got as much from the summer as I did.” 我希望他们和我一样收获良多。
