下面的翻譯是我一個字一個字打出來的,edouoli覺得好的話加點分,
Last summer I was a volunteer at a shelter for the homeless,a place for homeless people tosleep at night.I wasn’t working that summer and was taking only two classes in summer school,so I had some free time.去年夏天,我在一家服務(wù)于無家可歸之人的收容所里做志愿者,這家收容所的作用是給無家可歸之人晚上休息我在那年暑假沒有工作而且在暑假班只上2堂課,所以我有一些空閑時間
Three nights a week,I helped in the kitchen of the shelter along with four other volunteers.We planned and cooked for 45 people hot meals with vegetables,chicken,fish and fruit.The homeless people needed this good food because many of them usually didn’t eat well.
每周3個晚上,我連同另外4個志愿者在收容所的廚房里幫忙,我們計劃為45人烹制有著蔬菜,雞肉,魚和水果的熱飯.無家可歸之人需要這個營養(yǎng)豐富的食物因為他們中大多數(shù)通常吃得不好.
I enjoyed this volunteer work,making friends with the four volunteers in the kitchen.One was a very nice elderly housewife,one a movie actor,another a young teacher,and the other a college student,like me.
I talked to a lot of the homeless people at the shelter.Their life stories filled me with sympathy .Some of them had problems with alcohol (酒) or drugs while others only had bad luck .
我享受這個志愿工作,和在廚房的4個志愿者結(jié)交為朋友.一個是非常友好的年長的家庭主婦,一個是電影演員,另一個是年輕老師,還有一個和我一樣是大學(xué)生.我也和許多在收容所的沒家的人聊天了.他們的生活故事讓我滿懷同情.他們中的一些有酗酒和吸食毒品的問題,而其他人僅僅是遭了厄運.
One woman worked for almost 30 years for a small company,and then she lost her job.She looked for a new job,but couldn’t find one,for she was too old .She could do nothing but sell her furniture — sofas,chairs,and tables so that she could pay for her food.The woman went on job hunting,but she still couldn’t find one.She had no money for her flat and had to sleep in her car.Then she had to sell her car.Alone,afraid ,and homeless,she finally came to the shelter.
