Part Four: Monologue
“Last year I worked as a counselor at a summer camp. It was quite an experience! My main duties included looking after the campers and leading hiking excursions. There were lots of challenges. Many of the campers became ill or homesick. Others had trouble following the rules.Yet despite those problems, I felt I was making a difference in these kids’ lives, molding them in some way. I love thinking about those nights in front of the campfire, singing songs together, looking at the stars. I hope they got as much from the summer as I did.”
——Marie Fischer, camp counselor
去年我在一個夏令營做輔導員。那真是一次美好的經歷。我主要的工作任務是照看營員，同時組織短途徒步旅行。這可是十分具有挑戰性。有很多營員不是生病就是想家，還有一些成員則無法遵守規定。只是除了這些問題難辦，我覺得我給這些小孩子的生活帶來了變化，在某些方面給他們進行了塑造。我喜歡回想在營火前的那幾個晚上，一起唱歌，看星星。我希望他們和我一樣收獲良多。
——瑪麗·費雪爾，營地輔導員
