It was sometimes annoying, scary and difficult, but also life-changing, satisfying and amazing. Because I had studied Spanish for a couple of ye
27、ars before I went out, I had just one week of classes at Volunteer Bolivia. Living with a family also helped my Spanish greatly and I felt immediately like one of their daughters. We were good friends from the beginning of my time there and I was looked after very well. I still had a lot of independ
28、ence. The Volunteer Bolivia centre, with its cafe bar and cultural talks, was a meeting place for all the volunteers and I met some wonderful people from all over the world who were doing the same as me-giving something of themselves to a country which needs so much.My job was in a caring centre for
29、 prisoners children from the Cochabamba prisons and from the very （恰好的）start I felt welcomed and needed. There I met some inspiring members who put so much of their heart into caring for those children who maybe had no one else to love them. Not only the work itself was very hard but at times it was
30、 emotionally demanding, especially sending a group of two year olds back into the prison at the end of the day. Despite all this, I learnt a lot through the experience and now Im more aware of the problems faced daily by many people in South America. The centre has very limited funding （资金）so they d
31、epend heavily on the work of volunteers, and any time people give is very valuable to them.Since returning to Britain I have kept in touch with the people I worked with and Im trying to support them as much as possible.

35、fice in Shanghai in only a couple of hours, and then, after a full day of work, going back home to Beijing and having dinner there. Sounds unusual, doesnt it? But its not that unrealistic, with the development of Chinas high-speed railway system. And thats not all. China has an even greater high-spe
36、ed railway plan-to connect the country with Southeast Asia, and eventually Eastern Europe. China is negotiating（谈判） to extend its own high-speed railway network to17 countries in 10 to15 years, eventually reaching London and Singapore. China has suggested three such projects. The first would possibl
37、y connect Kunming with Singapore, via Vietnam and Malaysia. Another could start in Urumqi and go through Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, and possibly to Germany. The third would start in the northeast and go north through Russia and then into Western Europe. The new system would still follow Chinas high-
38、speed railway standard. And the trains would be able to go 346 kilometers an hour, almost as fast as some airplanes. Of course, there are many problems that need to be settled, such as safety, rail gauge(轨距) , maintenance（维修）of railway tracks. So, its important to pay attention to every detail. But
39、the key problem is really money. China is already spending hundreds of billions of yuan on domestic(国内的 )railway expansion. China hopes that resources from other countries could stream into China to support development. Itll be a win-win project. For other countries, the railway network will definit
40、ely create more opportunities for business, tourism and so on.

47、and widens my perspective(洞察力,眼力). Recently I found Kobo，an online book store that allows me to buy e-books and read them on a device of my choice. Im a girl living in Indonesia, where e-books are not available and I had to buy physical books from Amazon in the past. There are two problems with it:S
48、hipping cost. Since I live far away from the United States, it costs a lot to ship a book. Shipping costs almost as much as the book itself. Shipping time. It takes about three weeks for the books to arrive through postal mail. Now with Kobo, I can eliminate those two problems. Not only does it cost
49、 less time and money to get the books, but also I prefer to read e-books this way than reading physical books. Here are three reasons why:I can easily bring the books everywhere. Since all the books are in my iPod touch, I can simply put the device into my pocket and bring it everywhere I go. The si
50、ze is smaller. The size of the iPod Touch is smaller than a physical book. This makes reading more convenient for me. I can read in any position I want. The iPod has a light source, so I can read when I am in darkness. This means that I can read in practically any position and condition. One more ad
