The Harvard Pre­College Program is a nice experience for high school students.

Alongside peers (同龄人) from around the world, you'll be introduced to college life

as you attend classes, live on campus, and enjoy fun outings and activities.

◆ Learning without limits

Biology, physics，law, writing and philosophy — these are just a few of the

30­plus courses you can choose from in each session. In our noncredit classes, we

set aside grades so that you can fully commit to your growth as a well­rounded student.

Class sizes typically range from 14 to 18 students to encourage interactive learning.

◆ Living at Harvard

When you attend the Pre­College Program, you'll live in a historic undergraduate

house, near Harvard Square, You will be with your fellow Pre­College students,

resident directors, and proctors(监考人) who provide support. You'll also enjoy meals

in one of Harvard's dining halls, which are a short walk from Harvard Yard and provide

many options for a variety of dietary needs.

◆ Thriving outside the classroom

The summer Pre­College Program offers many mentally challenging co­curricular

activities beyond the classroom. With faculty and Harvard­affiliated experts, you

will have the opportunity to participate in workshops on topics like the psychology

I've been a volunteer in the Macmillan @ Glasgow Libraries programme for just

over a year. I got involved because I was looking for something to volunteer for after

I retired from work. I thought being a Macmillan Cancer Information and Support

Volunteer might be a good way to do that by using some of the skills I learned at

work.

At one time, I felt I made a real difference when a lady came in to use the service.

She was very upset, but she was not the person with cancer. It was her partner, She

had lots of things on her mind. We, together with a counselor, had a chat about her

to help deal with all the emotions(情感) she felt. We knew we could arrange something,

so we discussed with her what could be done for her family. She was relieved that

we could get something arranged for her and liked the fact that we managed to get

the ball rolling during her visit.

The good thing about having the services in the library is that the environment

is non­clinical and therefore more relaxing than the hospital or doctor's surgery.

The team in the library are not medically trained. That means we do not use big words

or medical terms very often.

lt's great that the people who volunteer all work well together, helping each

other to get a resolution(解决) for people who come in. It's good to have the team

at the other end of the phone whenever we get something unusual. It is a pleasure

to be able to help as a volunteer.

6．What do we know about the volunteers?

A．They do well in teamwork.
