Notes

① The tradition has continued through the years as Americans have volunteered in times of war, disaster and need．美國(guó)人在戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)、災(zāi)害和危難時(shí)期擔(dān)任志愿者，讓這項(xiàng)傳統(tǒng)常年延續(xù)了下來(lái)。

② Without the hours volunteers put in, America would not be nearly as nice a place to live．沒有志愿者投入的時(shí)間，美國(guó)就不會(huì)是這么一個(gè)適合人們居住的好地方。
