Who says honesty is dead? Last Tuesday morning Alan Reed, a student, was at the bank. He asked to take out $ 50 but the bank clerk mistakenly gave him five twenties instead of five tens. For a few seconds he wondered what to do. Should he give the extra money back? Keep it? If he kept it, he could buy several new books, or he could take his friend Alice to a fancy dinner. Probably no one would ever notice. Besides, this would make up for all the times he’d been overcharged. But then he looked at the clerk. She was a middle-aged woman with a sweet face, and she reminded him of his mother. She had been nice to him, and she looked pressured in her work. Then it occurred to him that the lady would probably get in trouble. Worst of all, Alan felt, he would probably feel guilty about keeping the extra cash. So Alan gave back the money.

The bank clerk was so impressed that someone was honest enough to return money not rightfully his that she contacted the newspaper. So there you have it. What would you have done if you’d been in Alan’s position?

    In college , Spring Break (春假) is usually associated with the beach, parties and sleepless nights,

bringing about relaxation, free time and friends. Students who wish to spend their break doing

something productive and rewarding, however, may choose to participate in the Altemative Break

Program. It places college students in communities both at home and abroad.

      The Program allows students to take part in various projects dealing with  issues  such  as  

literacy  (识字 ) , homelessness  and  the environment. It includes helping kids with their lessons,

raising money for families in need and collecting data for environmental research.

     The hope is that, by getting themselves involved in different environments, students will have the

opportunity to learn about members of communities and broaden their view. In turn, they will

incorporate (融合) their experiences and lessons learned into their own communities. In a word ,

the Program aims to encourage students to be active citizens and engage themselves in making a

difference in society.

     In the spring of 2006, about 36, 000 students in the USA participated in the Altemative Break

Program.

     Samantha Giacobozzi, now director of the Program, has been on five alternative break trips herself,

including trips to New Orleans, India and Dominican Republic. "I was a student who went on alternative

break trips and had my life totally transformed by that experience , " she said. " Every year , we meet

many students who have attended the Program. You can see changes in their life that are connected

with their altemative break experiences. "

     The Program began in  1991. Today , it  has  become  increasingly popular with college students

in the United States.
