The requirements for high school graduation have just changed in my community. As a result, all students must   36   sixty hours of service learning,   37   they will not receive a diploma. Service learning is academic learning that also helps the community.    38    of service learning include cleaning up a polluted river, working in a soup kitchen, or tutoring a student.    39   a service experience, students must keep a journal（日志）and then write a   40   about what they have learned. Supporters claim that there are many   41    of service 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   service learning. For example, if a student wonders what teaching is like, he or she can choose 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. Because service 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 service, the school takes away an individual's freedom to choose. In my view, service 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 choose sixty hours of independent study or sixty hours of service. Choice encourages both freedom and responsibility, and as young adults, we must learn to handle both wisely. 小题1: A．spend B．gain C．complete D．save 小题2: A．and B．or C．but D．for 小题3: A．Subjects B．ideas C．Procedures D．Examples 小题4: A．With B．Before C．During D．After 小题5:A. diary             B, report              C . note              D. notice 小题6: A．courses B．benefits C．challenges D．features 小题7: A．beyond B．about C．over D．in 小题8: A．careful B．proud C．tired D．aware 小题9: A．possess B．apply C．include D．develop 小题10: A．Gradually B．Finally C．Luckily D．Hopefully 小题11: A．through B．across C．of D．on 小题12: A．So B．Thus C．Since D．While 小题13: A．deal with B．look into C．point out D．take down 小题14: A．argue B．doubt C．overlook D．admit 小题15: A．much B．full C．less D．more 小题16: A．cost B．pay C．care.
