     Being the head of a high school for many years, I grew tired of budget meetings, funding cuts, and
many other administrative chores (零星工作) and started to dream of retirement.Sitting in traffic on a
weekday    morning, I would find my mind  1 . I would imagine spending time with my grandchildren,
quiet evenings with my 2 ,  traveling,  or rediscovering some great books. I told  myself that I wouldn't 
3 myself  upfor any committees, any classes, or anything requiring a schedule.My first day of retirement
came   4 ! I cooked a great  breakfast  for my wife and me,  _ 5 read the paper,  cleaned a bit of  the
house, and  wrote  a few letters to friends. On the  second day, I cooked  breakfast,  read the paper.
     On the third day ... This is retirement? I tried to tell myself that it was just the transition (过度),  that
those    moments were right round the corner, and  that I would  7 them soon enough.  But something  was  8 . A  former colleague asked me  a  9 .  A group of students were going  to Jamaica (牙买加)
to work with children in the   10 neighbourhood. Would I  11 my new-found "happiness" and return to the
students,  just this once? One trip. That's all.  
     My bags were  12 and by  the door.  The  trip  was  very inspiring. I was   13 not only by the poverty
I saw but also by the sense of  14 of the young people on the trip.   15   I returned   home,  I offered to
work one day a week with a  local youth  organization.The experience   was so positive  that  I was
soon volunteering nearly full-time,working with students across North America to assist them in their 16
work.     
     Now, it seems that the tables have turned.Some days I am the teacher,and other days I am the student.
These young people have reawakened my  17 to social justice issues by  18    me to learn more about the
situation in the world today, where people are still poor and 19 because of greed, corruption and war.
Most importantly, they have given me the opportunity to continue to participate in helping to find solutions. In return, I help them do their charitable projects overseas. I've gone from   20 one  school to  helping
oversee (监督) the construction of schools in twenty-one countries!
