问题     Some people claim that unpaid community work (e.g. working for a charity; teaching sports to children) should be a compulsory part of the high school curriculum. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

答案 The issue of whether unpaid community service should be compulsory for high school students has long been a debate to many. Those in favor of the idea argue that engaging in community work will instill a great sense of community into young minds. They believe that an experience like this will develop leadership, teamwork skills, a good sense of responsibility and other such qualities that students are expected to have in their future life, since high schools are supposed to prepare students for either university or "the real world". On the other hand, those who hold an opposite opinion argue that forcing young people into such kind of activities may lead to resentment and additional stress in their already busy lives. They also claim that students themselves have the right and capability to make the decision whether, and in what form, they will take part in work like this. However, I believe the main issue here is not about whether unpaid community work will benefit students or not, but if making it compulsory is beneficial. In my opinion, instead of making voluntary work mandatory, parents and teachers should encourage and provide students with opportunities to participate in it. Only in this way can students truly adopt a proper attitude towards community service, and actually learn from the experience of helping others out. So overall, I am confident that making community service compulsory is not a good way to equip students with the values that parents and teachers expect them to learn. A more productive approach should be something that inspires them to take the initiative themselves.
