The Youth Team of Shougang Winter Olympics(奥运会) Service is one of the volunteer groups that worked at the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics. The 192young volunteers worked for more than two months and provided more than 15, 000 hours of service.
It is not an easy job to work as a volunteer. Liu Junyu, 28, from the team, found the ways to help people get in and out more easily. Other volunteers helped clean snow each day. This made sure that everything worked well for the games.
Also, a volunteer needs to learn a lot. Volunteers needed to know all about the games. They also kept in mind the history and stories behind them. "People say volunteering is about giving, but I got a lot from helping others, "said a volunteer.
When I was in Grade Three, I thought I just needed to study. My parents would do all the housework. I often threw my things on the bed and sofa, so our house was always in a mess.
One day, when my mother came home after work and found a lot of rubbish in our house, she was so angry. She said to me seriously, "You must do some housework every day from now on. "I didn't think it is fair for me to do that. However, I followed what my mother said.
After a few days, I understood that doing housework was harder than I imagined. My parents had to do a lot of housework after work, so I must help them much more at home. I tried to do different kinds of housework in my house, so they could have a good rest when they got home.
We should not always rely on our parents too much. Learn to do housework by ourselves, and it will help us a lot.
