答案                           The Benefits of Volunteering
   As we all know, volunteering bas a meaningful and positive impact on the community you serve and the people you help. In the meanwhile, it can have many benefits for you, too. In my opinion, there are two reasons to volunteer: feel good about yourself while helping others; build your portfolio.
   On one band, volunteering makes you feel good about yourself on a purely selfish level. There are few things more satisfying than helping people. Hammering nails on a new home while the owner beams with pride right next to you is an amazing feeling. Walking or running to raise funds for a cause close to your heart helps to give you a sense of purpose and helps you realize just how lucky you are. As a volunteer, you will gain new perspective, for it’s se easy for us all to get a little too wrapped up in our own lives. On the other band, from a professional standpoint, volunteering is a great way to add to your portfolio. From press releases to design pieces, from public speaking to fundraising, you will have the opportunity to build your portfolio. This is especially beneficial for students or young professionals, although all of us should continually work on building our portfolios.
   Apart from the benefits of building up your confidence and making your portfolio better, there are probably many other benefits you will find in your volunteer work. So it is time for you to participate in more volunteer work to help others as well as help yourselves.

解析    2008年试卷的作文较容易,题目一目了然,提纲给出三部分的结构,因此考生应该在第一段指明自己认为做志愿者有哪些收获;然后第二部分展开说明,可以直接阐述原因,也可以举例进行分析;最后为结论段,通常对前面内容进行简要总结,然后给出建议或措施。由于专四作文只有200字,因此通常分成三段来写,注意第二段在阐释原因时,要将最重要的,即内容最多的放在最前面来写,然后依次分析来下,一般而言,给出的原因不超过三个。
